Re: Re: Food/Drink (allison)

,

I really do not know if any food is a trigger for sure. I asked about

iced tea because someone mentioned " bleached sugar " as an irritant, and I do

drink tea - but nothing alcoholic. Of course beer, various alcohols, and pickled

Jalepeno's would all contain sugar (a common firminting and pickling agent).

However, I am not sure what " bleached sugar " is: whether it is a special sugar

or simple granulated sugar. If anyone knows I am curious.

(sorry --- sometimes I'm just slow---)

My new doc says Dairy (calcium) is critical to eat during the day... Yogurt,

milk, cheese... What's the take on that? (non processed cheese of

course--- not the deli slices in plastic).

Curious minds want to know.

I've heard about that and see some validity in it. I worked on a farm as a

young kid (11-13) for some money and got to know the old Italian dude pretty

well. Besides, there has to be a sense of pride that back then, you

literally fed everyone around you. Now all the farmland is becoming

row-houses here, and even the farms that haven't been sold are struggling

and hardly used anymore.
