We have had to take her to emergency several times when she mistakenly ate some. I have an acquaintance that goes into anaphylatic (sp?)shock if she touches buckwheat.

When dining out, I want food at least as good as I can make at home, if not better. Otherwise the only advantage is not doing the dishes.

I was visiting family in Chicago, so what was on the menu? Italian beef sandwiches, cheese slathered french fries, potato chips, beer, pancakes, chocolate, pop... and the list goes on. I tried, and failed to find a vegetable in that house. I did sort of indulge, I ate part of my roll with my Italian beef, but nothing really filled me up. I was hungry all weekend. (I'm never that hungry when I'm all primal!) If I'd known it would be like that I would have brought 3 lbs of broccoli with me. Luckily I've been going primal for a while now, so I can have higher carb days, but I don't get the crash. But I hate being hungry and having no veggies around!! It's so frustrating being around people that are the opposite of primal. This was SO my weekend! I was visiting family in Chicago, so what was on the menu?
