Check these out!
You can actually check your food for sulfites!
I don’t know. Would I? Could I? Should I in a boat or on a car or on a float?
It seems really anal. But if you are out at a restaurant and want to really make sure, I guess you can get some of these strips. You know what? YOU KNOW WHAT? (Throws down glove) I am DOING it. I will throw myself under a bus for all of you and try them. Ordering….please hold.
F*%^$^%ck man! They charged me 7 bucks for shipping and they were only $5 for the strips. G.D. chemists.
All alright. I ordered them. When I get them, I will shove one of them in my Applebee’s meal and see if a 5 car alarm goes off. Will let you know. That’s how much I love you.
HAPPY FRIDAY
Today we leave for a weekend lacrosse tourney. I have decided, with the meal planning help of AWESOME Tracy, to bring some light fixings in the cooler. But not much more. I am going to really test out restaurants and see what happens. I may look like this on Sunday.
I will let you know.
Sidenote: If you ate something funny and you need to make yourself throw up, go to Google images and search for “swollen”. Happy vomiting.

Oh, you are gonna love this.
I just got an email from the the chemists who make the sulfite tests.
People like this make this whole blogging thing really, really easy.
And I quote:
“Dear Ms. Moran,
Thank you for your interest in our Sulfite Detectors. Unfortunately, ChemSee-Foods has a minimum order requirement of $30.00.
If you would like, we can charge an additional $25.00 for an additional 5 units. That would bring the total order cost with shipping to $37.17.
Otherwise, I will be happy to reimburse your charge.
At your earliest convenience, please let me know how you would like to proceed.”
My response:
“I don’t need anything else from your company.
I think it’s too bad. I have a blog that reaches out to (note the use of the world) thousands of sulfite allergy sufferers and I notified everyone that I was going to be purchasing these and testing them for everyone. You would have definitely gotten a lot of orders.”
So to all of the thousands (4) of pals who are reading this: Sorry. I tried. They wouldn’t even let me near the bus.
