I fully suspect the culprit of my swollen tongue to be the Japanese chex mix. Don't they put fish in everything? I am allergic to certain types of shellfish. With that as perspective, I have some leftover quinoa (pronounced "queen-wa") for lunch.
My lip swells up like a dirigible. Fortunately, the Benadryl is at hand and I drink half a bottle.
As I think about foods that have physically hurt me, the list is as follows:
carrots--broke a tooth, got a crown on the broken tooth, had carrots again, chipped the crown.
scallops--huge hives. had to have the company doctor shoot a needleful of adrenaline in my butt. couldn't eat lunch at the company cafeteria ever again after that since he was usually eating there.
crab--same deal, hives.
quinoa-a simple grain, good for you yet I can't eat it.
As I reflect upon this list I realize I've never been stricken by a Hershey bar.
Does this mean I'm destined to be fat?
