Good point, I get that kind of reaction followed by an endorphin rush with curry...the hotter the better, and if I'm having an 'Indian week' my tolerance and craving for chili increases til I get cramps in my gut from a lunchtime vindaloo.

My hubby for example got sick after eating tater tots when he was younger. To this day he swears he can't eat them or he'll get sick. It's all in his head.

As I've said, there certainly are people who do have food allergies/intolerances. I don't dispute the validity of it. My point is simply that people are too quick to assume they have one. Your throat closing up is a pretty clear indication of an allergy. My issue is people who get sick to their stomach and assume it's an allergy/intolerance with out bothering to ask a doctor about it.

I hate it when people want to have a conversation while eating. whenever I sit with mom to eat she wants to discuss world events or soap operas... I never talk while I eat, but females love talking on the food table, I don't get it.
i knew i would find something to agree with you on eventually.
not many things irritate me as much as someone asking questions while I am eating, or waiting for my input on something, with food in my mouth. I feel like immediately answering and just spitting food all over them and myself, which would be the ONLY obvious result of their antics.

I find it strange that you even care what other people eat.
I also find it strange that you call nutritional specialists quacks, but you think the drug dealing doctors are 'legitimate'
Oh, the FDA said it is okay, so it must be, right?
The Obesity epidemic has nothing to do with...
You are welcome to continue on the path of poor nutrional choices, and lashing out at people who refuse to eat food that 'they' feel is not nutritious.
To me, you sound like an angry father who is upset that his daughter refuses to eat the food that you worked so hard to put on the table, and how dare she claim to be a vegitarian...
I am not trying to offend you, but inform you how ridiculous this sounds...
The thing is, for every one person who thinks he or she has one nowadays, there are three more who don't, but think they do.
