Adding to the food sensitivity list

[torquill]

Well, I seem to have confirmed another food sensitivity: canned fish. Sigh.

I guess I'll be cooking all my fish fresh from now on... I'll miss tuna salad, though. It's hard to do that from scratch.

Luckily, it doesn't impact most things.

Is the pouched tuna the same thing?

Yeah, it's just the end packaging that's different... it's processed the same way.

Smashed garbanzo beans can be made into a salad with a texture very similar to tuna salad. The flavor is very different, but it's still pretty delicious.

Alas, the protein content of chickpeas is 1/4 that of tuna, and their carbohydrate:protein ratio is 2.5:1.... not a main-dish item for me, I'm afraid. And I'd still miss the flavor. :)

I've known for some time that I would fare very poorly on a vegetarian diet. I can't do vegan for any time at all.
