Anyone know if the Burger King bacon sundae is safe? I expect it would be, but...

It says only milk in the allergy info (I was just looking at the menu last night for myself but for D and E in other stuff).

Not sure of any x-con issues.

It just sounds so icky to me, but I know people like those flavors together. If you get it, you'll have to come post how it tasted.

Man, I love the combination of the saltiness with ice cream or almost anything. Bacon jam is amazing as is sliced bacon brushed with maple syrup then roasted in the oven. Bacon and chocolate also have an affinity for one another. I encourage you to try it - hopefully you will be pleasantly surprised! :P

In the absence of bacon, scooping up your ice cream with salted pretzels is also lovely.

Make some bacon and scoop up your ice cream with it.

Make bacon crumbles and sprinkle it on your own ice cream.

As for me....I'm doing what Love2travel just inspired me to do...

I'm dipping crispy bacon in melted Dove chocolate...and letting it set.

I also dip potato chips...in ice cream or chocolate yum!

I wouldn't eat the sundae from McDonald's but I would make my own version of it.

Awesome! Isn't it wonderful? Seriously good with potato chips and pretzels. The good thing about making your own sundae (or anything else for that matter) is that you control the ingredients and can make it exactly how you like it. :)

My son would sooooo go for this. He has an "I heart bacon" T-shirt that he wears constantly and gets lots of compliments on. We gave him bandaids for his birthday that looked like strips of bacon.

Someone gave me a cupcake once that had maple icing and bacon crumbles on top. I gave it to my son who told me it was like eating a pancake/bacon desert. I was tempted to try and make a gluten-free version of it, but quite frankly I don't need that in the house.

I myself, totally love alternating bites of chips and ice cream.

Nothing about a bacon sundae from Burger King sounds appealing........and I'm pregnant, so if anyone should want to try that, it should be me! :blink:

Several years ago I had steak cooked on the grill. We were having home-made hot fudge sundaes for dessert. There was a bit of steak left on my plate and I dipped it into the hot fudge. It was GGGGOOOOOODDDD!!!!

I wish I could eat bacon (corn, dontchaknow) because I would be all over this.

I'm with you bart. I found out Friday that my life is now baconless (and hamless and chocolateless) and considering all the new things I've had to give up I was honestly debating if saving my sight was worth giving up bacon. In retrospect that seems crazy but at the time going blind for bacon and chocolate seemed like a perfectly good idea.

At any rate, I kept meaning to get to BK for some sweet potato fries and a bacon sundae. I suppose I'll just go to Wendy's and have a berry salad instead if I still feel like I need to indulge. My husband and I have been periodically enjoying candied bacon and bacon milkshakes this summer, I'm more than a little sad to be giving them up.

I think most people would agree that bacon is one of the greatest inventions of all time.

But an even greater "invention" is good health that will allow us to enjoy all of the other "great inventions" - like sunsets and music and family and friends. Hiking in the woods, fishing, sports, theater, beaches, concerts, trips to far-off places, and trips close to home.

At least that is what I tell myself whenever I see someone eating bacon.

You're so right bart! If everyone ate bacon I think we could have world peace. I mean, why fight when we could eat bacon.

EXACTLY!!! Everyone knows that bacon and butter make everything better! :P And just a wee bit more calorific.

      The discovery of the vitamin D receptor in multiple immune cell lineages, such as monocytes, dendritic cells, and activated T cells credits vitamin D with a novel role in modulating immunological functions and its subsequent role in the development or prevention of autoimmune diseases.  The Implication of Vitamin D and Autoimmunity: a Comprehensive Review

      Definitely get vitamin D 25(OH)D.  Celiac Disease causes vitamin D deficiency and one of the functions of vitamin D is modulating the genes.  While we can survive with low vitamin D as an adaptation to living in a seasonal environment, the homeostasis is 200 nmol/L.  Vitamin D Receptors are found in nearly every cell with a nucleus,while the highest concentrations are in tissues like the intestine, kidney, parathyroid, and bone.  A cellular communication system, if you will. The vitamin D receptor: contemporary genomic approaches reveal new basic and translational insights  Possible Root Causes of Histamine Intolerance. "Low levels of certain nutrients like copper, Vitamins A, B6, and C can lead to histamine build up along with excess or deficient levels of iron. Iodine also plays a crucial role in histamine regulation."

      I forgot to mention my suspicion of the high amount of glyphosate allowed to be used on wheat in USA and NZ and Australia. My weight was 69kg mid-2023, I went down to 60kg in March 2024 and now hover around 63kg (just after winter here in NZ) - wheat-free and very low alcohol consumption.

      Hi Jess Thanks so much for your response and apologies for the long delay in answering. I think I must have been waiting for something to happen before I replied and unfortunately it fell off the radar... I have had an upper endoscopy and colonoscopy in the meantime (which revealed 'minor' issues only). Yes I do think histamine intolerance is one of the problems. I have been lowering my histamine intake and feeling a lot better. And I do think it is the liver which is giving the pain. I am currently taking zinc (I have had three low zinc tests now), magnesium, B complex, vitamin E and a calcium/Vitamin C mix. I consciously think about getting vitamin D outside. (Maybe I should have my vitamin D re-tested now...) I am still 100% gluten-free. My current thoughts on the cause of the problems is some, if not all, of the following: Genetically low zinc uptake, lack of vitamin D, wine drinking (alcohol/sulphites), covid, immune depletion, gastroparesis, dysbiosis, leaky gut, inability to process certain foods I am so much better than late 2023 so feel very positive 🙂

      Hi and thank you very much for your detailed response! I am so glad that the protocol worked so well for you and helped you to get your health back on track. I've heard of it helping other people too. One question I have is how did you maintain your weight on this diet? I really rely on nuts and rice to keep me at a steady weight because I tend to lose weight quickly and am having a hard time envisioning how to make it work, especially when not being able to eat things like nuts and avocados. In case you have any input, woud be great to hear it! Friendly greetings.
