Here's an odd question:
I saw many people's responses saying they wish they could eat bacon. I have never had a problem with bacon, and had never heard of it causing problems.

What is it about bacon that some people can't eat it?

It doesn't cause problems directly, but when I'm not in full remission, I have bad reactions to it and may make my flare up worse.
During my flare, my intestines are not able to absorb fat and reabsorb bile so my symptoms somewhat worsen.

And some people are sensitive to the preservatives added in the bacon. They may be able to tolerate pork chops but not bacon, unfortunately.

Some left over breakfast casserole, didn't sit with me well, so Diet Sprite rest of the day. Oh and I too have a hard time with bacon.

Hmm.. I wonder if I cut back on bacon, if that would make a difference?

I love bacon! Lately I've been trying to eat healthier, so I've been eating turkey bacon, but sometimes you just want the real thing!

I ate very little today :(
one 6" chicken subway with lots of veggies and no sauce. then one serving of Lucky Charms :)
I only drank water today.

My appetite is not big at the moment but I do not feel sick in any way.

While I was fixing lunch, I had some bread,honey turkey and vegan cheese. The bread was UDI's gluten free. Later, at work, I had two bananas. At lunch, I had a honey turkey and vegan cheese sandwich,two tiny baked potatoes and Glutino crackers. Tonight, I had honey turkey,carrots and rice. Afterwards, I had gluten free corn flakes.
