I
can’t eat that…
As a person
who was well known for having a cast iron gut… I am finding out that there now
a few things I can not eat.
I
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE Mexican food. Can’t think of anything that I have eaten that I
did not like in Mexican food.
Even as a
teen, my mother use to make her own pizza’s.. and red peppers where plentiful
on it. She made BIG pizza’s. And if
there were any left the next day.. we had it for lunch.. and for some reason it
felt like they were hotter the second day.
Like they build up over night.
Then my
moving to California
But in the
past 6 months or so.. My body has decided it does NOT like hot Mexican food. One
of my most miserable day and night was after eating at one of our local
restaurants. I blamed the margarita, as it was a different one than I usually
have.. it couldn’t be the food.. Nope..
I was bent
in half.. thought something was eating my stomach.. Heart attack maybe..
Since then,
I have found out it is the food. Anything acidity.. kills me.. So now it is
mild salsa, and jalapeño’s ….good by.. No more cheese stuff ones. And no more….. (tears here, now) bacon wrapped, cheese
stuffed jalapeños.. (breaking my heart…
if it wasn’t for the heart burn) …
Even some
spicy spaghetti … and I have eaten good old fashion cook all day… spaghetti
sauce since I was able to eat real food. My mother made the best ever.. and no
restaurant can come close. I have her recipe..BUT when it comes to the spices..
she wrote.. spice to taste. So far I have not be able to find her taste.. Mine
is close.. but hers was so much better… But now.. I have to take it easy on the
sauce.
Life is not
fair… I tried to see it as I have had 75 years of spaghetti and 59 years of
salsa … so should be happy with that.. but I love it.. I even ate salsa with
vanilla (yes over the vanilla) ice cream.. when I was pregnant with my oldest
child.. (we joke about why she is the only one with red hair of my kids)
