Intolerance Sucks!

There are many types of intolerance...

intolerance of certain races/ethnicities
intolerance of homosexuality

they all suck... but the one that really kills me:

intolerance to Dairy Products. It just hit me about 3 years ago - before that, I was fine. It's cow that's the real culprit. I'm guessing it may have to do with what the cows have been eating... I'm gonna blame the GMO corn/grains for my allergic reactions. I get those nasty cystic pimples - the big painful ones under the skin. Goat & Sheep milk don't affect me as badly... but I still get breakouts every now and again due to errant butter or cream in some sauce.

I went to Melisse for dinner tonight. Michelin rated 2 stars... fabulous french food...

Sometimes you just have to decide - enjoy a great meal and experience the food as it was meant to be prepared or don't go there.

Being the foodie that I am, I sucked it up, and just accepted what was presented. From the amuse-bouche to the dessert - there was some sort of dairy in just about everything... and it all tasted soooo good.

And the cheese plate! Oh. My. God! The bleue cheese - St. Auger (i may have misspelled that) was so creamy and what a wonderful flavor... and the Humboldt Fog... man - I love cheese! why do i have to break out?

Was it worth it? well - yes, and no... I wonder how badly this episode is going to be. I'm gonna drink plenty of water and green tea and hopefully I can cleanse most of it out of my system.
