Subject: Punishing Foods
Written By: Red Ant on 11/30/07 at 9:32 pm
I ordered a pizza tonight with pepperoni, pineapple and jalapenos. The guy on the other end of the phone was like "whoa!". I have to admit that this combination, while delicious, can occasionally cause severe gastric distress. Same with buffalo wings with the "three mile island" sauce.
Sushi with fresh wasabi - if you ever need to clear out your sinuses, this stuff will cut through anything. Wasabi is not that hot on the tongue or lips, but after a few seconds you might think you've inhaled a lit blowtorch.
Szechuan Beef - It's hard to get really good Szechuan beef around here anymore. I love the stuff, despite the fact two bites in my eyes were tearing and the 20oz glass of water on the table was empty.
BBQ Ribs - I sooo love BBQ ribs. I sooo don't love what happens hours later....
Are there any foods you love to eat that don't agree with you, or are an ordeal to eat?

anything with a lot of tomato sauce....I have a stomach ulcer and it makes it act up.
Also..I think I am a bit lactose intolerant...because when I drink milk or eat cheese...I usually get sick. :-\\

Anything with spices sends a big fireball gas right outta my ass. But it doesn't stop me. The hotter my food is, the more I love it!

Punishing foods? Oh man, too easy and too many things....
McDonalds, with the exception of fries, anything from Mickey D's will make my insides shudder. Burgers, chicken nuggets, all of it, about a half hour later, my lower regions are singing tunes of displeasure.
Taco Hell (bell), god there must be human Draino in the mix cause this stuff always makes a strong display after eating. Something about Taco Bell being the only place open at 2am and your stomach already full of alcohol seems to doom the mixture of soy-meat and questionable cheese substitute products to a prompt departure from my bowels.
Salsa, I LOVE salsa, hot, fresh and did I mention HOT? But my lower intestine doesn't like it so much so it never manages to stay around too long, if you know what I mean. First in, first out.
Baloney, something about this "meat", already processed to within a inch of its former life that makes my internals work overtime. Its as if the processing of the meat was already done by the factory and so my stomach doesn't know what to do with it, so its rejected. I have to admit the results are enough natural gas that could power all of western civilization for a week.
Yes, disgusting, but, you asked....

I pretty much have an 'iron stomach', so there aren't many foods that bother me...
However, last week my family went out for Thai food, and without realizing, I ate a chili pepper that was in a soup...
My insides were fine, but boy! did it make my eyes water and throat burn! :o

*note to self: jalapenos are not good for chapped lips*

Ditto. Most things that Arby's serves looks like they were already vomited.
Like Quirk, milk gets me sometimes. I can be fine with a bowl of cereal or creating a new bio-chemical weapon from a few drops of it in coffee.
I forgot Tuna Fish. Not that it bothers me, but an hour later I strangely.... find myself alone, contemplating how sensitive electronics are still functioning.

I'm a pretty picky eater, and luckily the foods I like don't mess with my stomach... but I do have to be careful sometimes because there are things that make me gag and/or vomit.
I like to eat a bowl of cereal but I have to eat it fast because once it gets soggy, it will make me gag. Same with bacon, I love it but only the crispy part... if I bite into a rubbery piece of fat, it's over... so I usually have to take off the ends before I eat it... and chicken, ya know that nerve or vein or whatever it is in the drumstick? I have been known to gag when I accidentally bit into that also....

I don't really like curry much, just because it's a weird sort of hot to me. I like things that are medium spicy.

Ah. Well, in that case, I recommend you avoid anything from Hooters, in a shot glass, that resembles a Bloody Mary. You will be in for an unpleasant surprise.
So would it be fair to say that gristly (sp?) foods make you gag? I know someone who is the same way: she LOVES bacon but will dry heave if she gets a piece semi-cooked.

It's strange because some things that are supposed to be kind of soggy (like hot oatmeal, mashed potatoes) are fine... but others make me gag... not sure what the difference is...

Maybe it's what you are expecting? The consistency of the food?
No one would expect crunchy mashed potatoes or ice cream... OTOH, biting into a strip bacon that is more like a strip of rubber is really gross.
I like steaks medium rare but would absolutely hurl if chicken was served that way.

Could be the surprise factor... cause yeah biting into a strip of rubbery bacon is gross but an equally rubbery fruit roll-up isn't so bad...

I gagged just reading that.
The reason I don't hamburger meat or sausage are the little pieces of hard stuff. 8-P
Ice cream bothers me.
Popcorn is another bad one. Love it but it doesn't love me.

Pineapple is yummy, but it makes me cut- major "pull my finger" action.
I also have problems with Pork Carnitas. The last time I ate one, it reminded me of when I was so bloated with gas, it ended up in a 30 minute fart. (No joke)

I won't even eat mushrooms myself. Baked beans are a different story, I have no problem eating them.
Anytime I see stuff like sandwich spread(as well as tuna salad, ham salad, egg salad, etc.), I start to feel alittle sick. If I smell it, I feel even more nascous.

True.
Not a punishing food, but I can never eat Fruit Loops again after seeing them float in a wastewater stream.

My husband, however, gets the heartburn thing just like you!

I have to watch out for onions and heavy loads of garlic (causes inside gastric problems)
If I eat sage, my tongue swells and lips swell.
Also, eating "No Sugar" products with the ingredient maltitol really kills me (It is known to act as a laxative.)

I've made a big mistake of eating a whole tin of those Ice Breaker Sours(which are sugar free and have matitol), it does have a laxative affect and unfortunately... it's not a good laxative feeling. 8-P :P

Yes, same here. I ate a bunch of candies before going out to dinner with a friend, and it hit me that night and lasted a few days! The pain was terrible. I'll take regular granulated sugar anyday (even though these "No sugar" products are good for diabetics).

I remember one time eating them on the bus and I dropped by the library to use the internet... Had to go to the bathroom while I was there... It lasted too long for me(it lasted until after I got home from paying the rent).

Mine is more sensitive than it used to be(due to stress and alot of cayenne pepper), but it's still like a solid built tank when it comes to things that are rough on it... While I'll pay the price, it won't affect me for too long.

Mine is also more sensitive due to stress. Also, sometimes if I eat too much stuff, I notice my digestive system reacts by pushing all of it out as fast as possible. I know, sounds disgusting, but maybe this is why I'm able to keep a decent figure. ;D
