FOOD!

So, I have been feeling kind of sick. Perhaps because of a few things. But one thing we think is because of some food allergen. I've always known I have somewhat of an intolerance to dairy and for the most part have not ever stayed away from it.... I love dairy, okay? I can't help it that its tasty.
I've also been told that dairy allergies can be accompanied with other major allergens like soy or wheat. So I am doing a little allergy test on my own. It's really been a mourning period for me, and I would like to take this time to say goodbye, to the following:
Betty Crocker Brownies (The super cheap, fudgy kind). You and I had a long run together. Remember when I ate you everyday for nearly 6 months, and then more sparsely but still rather often after that? I do. Remember how you tasted better than really expensive brands? And much much much better than gluten free/soy free/ dairy free kinds. I love you Betty Crocker! I will always love you for the good times we have shared together.

Bread: I miss you bread. I especially miss the super unhealthy, overly soft, white bread. You made bologna sandwiches the best. And also though grilled cheese sandwiches have always given me a tummy ache, but I was in bliss eating you. I remember preaching to people that whole wheat might be good for you, but white will always taste better. And it makes my tongue itchy. I don't think it's because I'm allergic to it, but I do think it's because, is nasty. Also not eating, makes it really hard to have a burger in restaurants. I don't know how to get my meat if you are not covering it. You make everything easier to eat in a car. My car is happy. I'm not.

Cheese: I super miss you most. I could put you on crackers, and you taste awesome with avocado, and tomato. You also make a BLT, a BLTAwesome. I will miss that. I will especially miss it on my unhealthy, squishy bread. Remember a time when people didn't eat tons of cheese? I don't. Cheese you are also in my sushi. Cream cheese style. Remember Cheesecake? I'm trying to erase it from my mind, PTSD style. I drooled about you last night. It was a real sad commentary on how much I miss you. You know what else is good? Cheese curds... fried... from Culver's

Ice Cream: I think I miss you. I miss you more because I can't have you. I want custard real bad.

J-Dawgs: J-Dawgs, you are made of bread, soy and joy. I love you. Want to hear a conversation I recently had with myself outside of your restaurant?


Me: I can do this! (as I grip the steering wheel)
Me: But if I have it just this once I can just start the test over again. I'm not that far into this whole allergy testing thingy. I could just start over
-5 Minutes Later
Me: But then I'd be on it longer
Me: But I super want special sauce!!!! On a polish dog! With unhealthy bread.... sigh
Me: I have to drive to Amber's. She'll feed me.
Me: I'm just so hungry.

Brazilian Lemonade: Since when does lemonade have dairy in it?

Soy: Why are you in everything? Including dark chocolate? Stop it!

Vending Machines: You know? I only eat at vending machines at work, and seem to be completely incapable of bringing food to work.

Fast Food Restaurants: You make things SO convenient. And you give me lots of meat. Want to know what I had for dinner tonight? Let's just say, I didn't include meat.

In conclusion, I am craving Sushi, lots and lots of sushi right now. And Mochi covered plum ice cream.... and fried chicken. Goodbye tasty, tasty food. I'll lament your absence.

  1. GOOD LUCK!!!! (That's with a non-sarcastic voice, I promise!) How long are you forgoing the allergens? It's so nice to hear your voice through your blog. Do you get kinnickkinnick chocolate cake mixes there? It's gluten free and dairy free (but I'm not sure about soy)...it's quite delish.
