Title: allergies
Post by: Samus Aran on October 08, 2008, 04:40:30 PM
We recently discovered that my sister Amanda has been vomiting every time she eats bratwurst or cheddarwurst. We pinned it down to her probably being allergic to MSG, a type of food preservative found in the types of bratwurst and cheddarwurst we buy, but not any other meats that Amanda eats. The poor girl finally admitted that she couldn't keep eating them, and so now it looks like she won't be eating anything with MSG for the rest of her life. That means almost no Chinese food.

Looks like we'll have to start checking for MSG in stuff we buy.

As for me, I'm not allergic to any food or anything like that. I just have really bad allergies when it comes to pollen.

What are you allergic to, Boyah?

Most Chinese restaurants I go to, and the one I work at, will gladly prepare food without MSG if asked.

I'm allergic to sodium nitrate and sodium nitrite.  It's a preservative in certain meats.  It's actually in bratwurst, so your sister might be like me! :)

Other than that, I'm not allergic to anything.

Yes. Grass.


Me too, although I've somewhat grown out of that. It used to be really bad, as my skin would like turn red and itch for the rest of the day if I played in grass at all. It still does slightly, but not nearly as bad.
