i have no idea what changes but just so you feel less alone, i can eat
strawberries until i explode if they are fresh, once frozen they make me
deathly ill to the point of needing the er, and i can eat "fresh" pineapple
if frozen or i can eat it canned or cooked but never fresh... last time i
did it was in a fluffy salad at a salad bar, i thought it was canned... by
the time we finished our meal and left the resto, i hurled like a vengful
cat from the top of your frig... right there in the parking lot, my stomach
had enough and simply expelled the contents, it took a while to figure out
what it was... no more fluffy salads for me, Lee

priceless, strawberries and pineapple make me break out in a red rash,
so i have always had to eat them MODERATELY

i wouldn't be eating them if i had your reaction to them!

just have to wonder what the body is doing.... how can we all be so
different?

giggle, the "intuitive" versus "sensing" cook

when we finally got cooking classes in school i was 12 years
old......... and had been cooking for the family for 5 years

my teacher was the "sensing" cook
boy, i drove her nuts
she would tell us what to make....... i knew how to make that, so i just
did (read the recipe? why? LOL) and that drove her up the wall........
it was worse when she did taste tests and liked my version better than
the others! LOL

according to the allergist its a reaction to enzymes and how they are
changed by freezing/cooking, one of the things i continusoly is that there
is no one size fits all food plan, it simpley doesn't work, one has to
consider allergins, sensitivities, how well the body digests different
catagories, what causes a reaction like bgl and then of course there is what
tastes good, Lee

if i eat what one would consider a normal portion mild stifness, if i eat
one would consider seconds then the inflamation starts, if i eat what i
want, it could move from joints to a migraine, that hasn't happened in

hubby is quite disconcerted with my lake of recipe following

about 12 years ago, i wanted to make talapia with oranges and a touch of
sweet basil or pesto sauce and perhaps a very light dash of garlic

NO WAY JOSE
ok, fine

today, he read the recipe on the back of the package (i didn't know
there was one there)

he LOVES talapia and oranges
he cooked dinner tonight (guess that's yesterday now, sure wish the
chills from this flu/cold/whatever goes away soon)

Fresh pineapple contains bromelain, a mixture of protein-digesting
enzymes. Cooking deactivates them. So I'd consider them one possibility.

That's why you can't add fresh pineapple to Jello, only cooked or canned.

Angela's having some ham for dinner to go with the scalloped potatoes she
found at Costco. She always asks for them but all of the boxed or prepared
ones we found contain wheat. And my attempts to make them have not worked.
They come out clumpy and milky. But she is not allergic to these. I will
have no ham. I think it is one of the foods I have refused to eat since it
was first given to me. That and hot dogs. Blech.

Jacquie,

Imagine my horror. The lady i bought my first Tibetan Spaniel from
talked me into showing, getting the Championship papers and then
breeding my Tibbies (yes, by then i had 2 Tibbies). NO ONE TOLD ME that
momma dog keeps the kennel clean.............. ALL of it!

i hovered more than momma dog did and i think she rather felt the same
way i did about that whole idea!

lol

the instctual reason for this is most practicle, it was horrifying when i
figured this out from the cats, in fact, eating all voided substances
removes a large scent/hunt factor, young, eliminations smell differently and
attract predators, Lee

Hmmm... I haven't heard to do that before. And I've never used a white
sauce.

think au gratin with cheese added, they are smoother if you melt in the
chees to the white sauce, but in a pinch you layer cheese/potatoes pouring
on white sauce as you go, Lee

I will have to look at recipes but don't think I have ever seen one with a
white sauce.

i have been doing it like that since i got the dh for making the white sauce
so i can't swear i have ever seen a real recipe like it, i learned it from
my grandmother. as an aside since you don
't eat ham, when you see the recipes that chop up ham in either, simply
substitute, hamburger, green bell pepper and onion you have
precooked/drained to add.

I did look up recipes and see that some say to do it that way. In the past
I just layered the potatoes, cheese and milk. That doesn't work.

Clearly, you need to make a white or cream sauce with , usually flour,
thickenermixed wotht eh far you are using, then followed b adding the
milk, stirring or whisking constantly to avoid lumps, then seson to taste.
Works for scalloped pottoes, chicken a-la-king, and many other dishes.
ind pof part of basic cookery. You can also, if unable to use milk for
one reason or another, use chicken or vegetable stok with teh same
proceedure. This is veloute sauce andis useful for those with milk
allergies or those wiching to put meat in the dish and keep it kosher(like
chicken a la king).
