This is the stuff I crave the most

i mostly crave foods that i gave up before going vegetarian/vegan. i hate admitting that but i used to live off of Burger King fish fillet sandwiches and Mcdonald's sausage biscuit with egg. haven't had them since i was 17 and probably never will again. i also crave the creamy artichok dip people make for parties! that stuff is too addictive.

and i agree with somedude about the pizza. no gluten free crap tastes as good as the real thing. i always liked papa john's pizza.

somedude, yeah, your right. the weirdest part is that i ate so much junk food growing up- like every teenager i guess- and felt fine for the most part. now i eat so healthy and unprocessed and am sick. such bull crap haha

i did have artichoke dip at our christmas party last year when i was in remission. it was delicious and didn't affect me negatively at all! too bad my remission didn't last because i was doing well on remicade and gaining tons of weight.

biscuits & gravy, saltine crackers in clamchowder , any gluten bread & cheese, having a cheeseburger WITH a cheap ass white bread bun!!

Popcorn..

chrissysoul, i did make a vegan version of artichoke dip using veganaise and nutritional yeast. it was not that good to be honest. veganaise has a special (weird) taste to it. i don't think anything can replace the real stuff in that recipe, but if you find a good recipe, lemme know.

stereo, you are obsessed with ice cream! haha i always see your posts and it's like "oh, i wish i could have ice cream" or "i ate ice cream and it was so worth it!"

So are you saying if I want my healthy colon back I have to cut that stuff out??? I do not eat processed food but I do eat spaghetti with homemade marinara sauce, sometimes with and sometimes without meat. I ate a nice grass fed steak filet mignon and a baked potato last night. Eating a peach for lunch today. I have ice cream virtually every single night. I've cut out foods, included foods done just about everything and nothing helps, only thing that has any relevance is just not eating "crap" or "processed food" because atleast I get the mst out of the nutrients. I am going to try that food combining thing, looks like you don't cut out any foods you just make sure to eat them in the right combinations to lower acidity

butte1, I didn't follow a specific diet when I was flaring. I just ate what sounded good, which was pretty much low-fiber and bland. Since being in remission, I've resumed my normal diet, which means no MSG, no artificial sweetners, and very little processed foods. I enjoy cooking from scratch. I also eat quite a bit of fruit and veggies.

So basically, when it comes to diet, UCers are all different.

Simple Carbohydrates Diet.

Basically, it involves eating very low carbs, no gluten (pasta,bread, all the good stuff), no dairy (no ben and jerry, or milk or anything from the moo). Then it doesn't stop there, you have the illegal and legal list. http://www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info/legal/listing/

Oh, no argument there! I'm full blood italian, but that I make myself feel a tiny-tiny little bit better when I can get something gluten free. I wish I craved more salty foods rather than sweet. Sweets cause so many more problems, and based on my test results, obviously signal some kind of bacteria overgrowth.
