    Absolutely - I make them a lot for my children (although we call them hasselback potatoes) with just butter and garlic. They work perfectly every time!

    It certainly affects my daughter badly if she uses any products containing wheat on her skin (she comes up in hives) - and my other daughter can't use anything containing corn or wheat either to eat...

    I know from experience (butchering deer myself) that there's pretty much no fat on them. I'd go for whatever you can get - haunch, shoulder, fillet, etc and cook with lots of extra fat. I pretty...

    I find that a small daily quantity of a bio yoghurt (2 - 3 tbpsns) can help a lot for me - it doesn't seem to speed up that horrible feeling, but it does "mellow" it a bit, which might make it more...

    I can't offer much help other than to suggest a visit to a different vet. It sounds as though he may need some medication for this. I do very much hope that he recovers quickly!

    I've been eating more in the way of white potatoes - maybe twice a week, and also more fruit, neither of which hits the spot! Weight has remained stable so far, thank goodness!
