Okay, so apparently I’m not all that bright. I bought two big boxes of granola cereal this weekend. I checked the ingredients as I always do to make sure there were no nuts.
About ten minutes ago my head started hurting. My joints felt funny and I started having pain behind my rear jaw and in my chest. I’m feeling a little light headed (still) and I feel like my pulse is quicker.
I looked at the cereal box. Sure enough – “almond powder.” How did I miss that? I suppose one slip up in 25 years is okay – thank god it wasn’t peanuts! Okay, so now I have an answer for those people that say “but are you sure you’re STILL allergic to nuts?”
Yeah, I feel like crap right now and I finished eating about half an hour ago. This can’t be a coincidence. Looks like somebody here at the office is going to take home a free box of cereal today…
That is what I get for trying to eat healthy – I won’t make that mistake again!
