I like most nuts, but not walnuts.
I was in my 30s when I learned that intensely itchy and stingy mouth is not part of the flavor profile of walnuts and I’m just mildly allergic.
I'm obsessed with peanut butter. I'm also allergic to it. My constant consumption as a child helped reduce my once-moderate allergy to a mild one, according to my allergist.
Which is why it was so wild for me when I temporarily became totally anosmic when I caught COVID. My mom has been completely anosmic the majority of my life, and as someone who loves to cook for her, I took advantage of my situation to quickly taste as many ingredients as possible and come up with recipes that would be more exciting for her.
After trying the entire source rack, fresh garlic, salsas, hot sauces, pepper, lemons and lemon rinds, I got to peanut butter. Suddenly, my mouth and throat were on fire and there was an inescapable flavor of wood. That's when I remembered that I'm still allergic to peanut butter.
What's anosmic, precious?
No sense of smell. Sometimes called nose-blind
Thank you!
Sort of a low intensity megosniac, but nothing like it.
So am I (also kiwis)
Pecans for the win!
Pecans are life
My mother too. One allergy I'm glad I don't have, I like big nuts
I didn't like walnuts,
until I ate a pack that didn't have the oil extracted from it.
