Just finished watching all of Seasons 1 and 2 of pretty little liars, and now I’m totally hooked! I’m even considering buying the first 3 episodes on iTunes because they’re not on On Demand.
Gluten allergies exist! They totally do, now!
See, I got all excited about this because it just blew up my Google Alert on “corn allergies” and I was like ARE THEY ABOUT TO MAKE CHIPS WITHOUT CORN IN THEM, IT’S FUCKING NACHO TIME GIMME DAT
But it was about gluten.
They don’t give a fuck that corn is an allergen.
So continue to not eat their products, please. As they proudly pronounce on, like, every bag, HEY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN WE’RE GONNA USE CORN OIL FOR THIS SHIT! It’s okay: corn oil is natural and good and stuff.
Womp-womp.
In other news: season finale of Supernatural tonight. If you don’t follow the show, the Big Bad this season is a Leviathan mastermind poisoning the corn supply of the United States through a company called Sucrocorp. That’s right: they’re making humans slower, dumber, and easier to eat by poisoning the HFCS. Last week’s episode included grocery store hi-jinks in which our heroes learned that if they can’t eat corn products, they can eat water and bananas, basically. I love these stupid characters, but it was admittedly nice to see them FEEL OUR PAIN.
that picture of the salad I posted earlier… I was so excited to find a salad I could eat. but my stomach hurt this afternoon so I checked the ingredients. the chicken has maltodextrin, natural flavors, and citric acid which could all be from corn! haha why is corn in everything.
- Everyone: A restaurant just brought out a gluten free line!
- Me: .
- Everyone: I made gluten free cookies!
- Me: .
- Everyone: I just wanted to drop by and bring you this gluten free mix I found.
- Me: .
- Me: *.... I can't have dairy, soy, eggs, peanuts, etc.... I can't eat the GF options at that restaurant... thank you for the cookies but I can't eat those either... I appreciate the thoughts about me and bringing me that mix but I can't make it either.*
- Everyone: But..
Suppertime!
I’m going to start using (this) smaller plate, because it makes portion sizes much-o easy-o.
It has: chicken brushed with olive oil and sprinkled with ground black pepper, cayenne pepper and garlic powder. And veggies! Roasted zucchini, carrots, red onion and wee bit of potato all tossed in olive oil and sprinkled with ground black pepper and garlic salt.
Easy peasy lemon squeezy. Also, it ment with the Boo Seal of Approval. Gluten- free and healthy. Yay!
My tiny half-batch of gluten-free peppermint slice!
I didn’t have a recipe I like so I had to bastardise one recipe for hedgehog and two for mint slice, resulting with a slice with a much softer middle than I wanted, but it still tastes amazing!
It’s been so long since I’ve eaten any form of slice. Bliss!
Gotta try this!
Since I was little I’ve always noticed sometimes when I eat my throat gets swollen and itchy and sometimes I throw up uncontrollably but I never gave it much thought. I finally got a food allergy test and I came back allergy to so many things it was shocking. I’m allergic to wheat, corn, soy, peanuts, tree nuts and pork. On top of that I have oral allergy syndrome; which causes me to be allergic to many fruits and veggies in there raw form and some even after they are cooked. Now there’s talk that maybe I have Celiac disease. The whole thing kind of sucks. Now I can’t eat any of my favorite foods. I feel hungry all the time. I just need to get a handle on this new life style before I starve to death. Btw, corn is in everything. :/
