At this holiday time, I'd like everyone to stop for just a moment with me,

And say a big

THANK YOU

For never having to politely choke down another piece of fruitcake again!

I also don't miss fruitcake - I used to get one every year from my boss. I finally escaped from it. :D

No! I love fruit cake too. In fact, I haven't ever had fruitcake I didn't like. I miss it! (But my thighs don't...)

I like fruitcake (a high quality one!). I also really like your picture :)

I was glad however, to be able to turn down all those horrendously fattening and sugar loaded sweets that I really wouldn't have enjoyed even if I could have eaten them!!! Huzzah!

I'm on another message board with a lot of "foodies" where the discussion was what your most hated food was. Over half said brussels sprouts. Brussels sprouts are one of my favorites. It just goes to show you that for every food that someone hates, another person is going back for seconds.

I've heard that the thing with fruitcake is that when it's done right it's wonderful, but when it's done wrong it's just so very, very wrong. Just like brussels sprouts... ;)

:D

Yea--I like brussel sprouts, but I just don't like the taste of candied fruit--so I've never even tried fruitcake. :ph34r:

      Stomach hurts with movement

      By amantelchi · Posted

      I'd like to clarify: Is the pain you describe in the area just below your chest constant, or does it only appear when you start moving?

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
