Uh, no!<br /><br />Nath - yep, just wish when it's bad, it wasn't so bad that my tummy takes a few weeks to settle back down. Ugh!<br /><br />Tara Marie - OH!! I can definitely check that out - see, I figured my doctor might know the common denominator between the food groups - not only that, I think the lactose free milk I was drinking was soy based also.

I can't eat bottle salad dressing and type of processed whipped topping (Cool Whip), anything cooked with Crisco.<br /><br />I'd tell the doctor that you're looking at a soy bean oil or partially hyrdrogenated soy bean oil allergy. This is in almost ALL processed foods, especially salad dressings, mass produced baked goods, jar spaghetti sauces, mac n cheese, all margarines and "healthy" spreads.<br /><br />I have a long history of soy allergies.Tara Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15963704767440694312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15133634.post-71617323566293530232009-11-04T21:58:46.142-05:002009-11-04T21:58:46.142-05:00((Cindy))

I'm grasping at straws, I admit.<br /><br />I eat salad without dressing. :-D Except at Olive Garden. I have an aversion to all things sour cream/mayo-ish. I'm odd...I don't mind admitting it.C2https://www.blogger.com/profile/08260556835414082481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15133634.post-44664743286027681922009-11-03T22:49:34.900-05:002009-11-03T22:49:34.900-05:00Thanks LinnieGayl - I really want to change up my ...Thanks LinnieGayl - I really want to change up my diet (or intake of food cause seriously, diet is not what I'm doing - need too but not yet) but too many changes and my stomach takes over. I have added vitamin pills and my tummy has finally decided I won't stop taking them so has eased up. Funny how my system will fight for a bit - I just know that certain foods won't ever be accepted.<br /><br />So I'm going to try with salad dressings again. I had a salad dressing from years ago and I know it didn't upset anything but I lost the recipe. It was all natural and would last a few weeks in the fridge. <br /><br />I think I may just have to change things in small doses - example - I think balsamic vinegar is not acceptable - figured that out while trying to make a dressing for a pasta salad. Luckily I had only dipped my finger in to taste. Tummy upset 1 hour later. Won't touch the stuff now.<br /><br />Doc suggested I eat salad without dressing. I'm more of 'salad is the vehicle FOR the dressing'. Ah well. I have to try!<br /><br />CindyCindyShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18349459903336460467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15133634.post-5750829032296993072009-11-03T21:04:11.278-05:002009-11-03T21:04:11.278-05:00((Cindy)) I so wanted you to be able to find out w...((Cindy)) I so wanted you to be able to find out what was happening.
