This week I'm doing a food test. It's to test my reaction to amines, a chemical the occurs through protein breakdown. Amines are in foods such as cured and smoked meats and fish, fresh salmon, tuna and sardines, bananas and some other fruit and vegetables...and CHOCOLATE. The test involves eating 2 bananas and 60 - 100 grams of chocolate per day and seeing what happens. (Yes Lisa, I'm rivaling your chockie consumption!) As many of you know I haven't eating chocolate for about 15 years, so it's quite a revelation.
Yesterday I had some dark chocolate (it's dairy free). It's got such a strong flavour; I could taste it for hours!
Today I felt the need to experiment. So I made brownies with a block of Lindt chocolate...
I HAVE NO WORDS!!!! I see why everyone says 'You don't eat chocolate?! I'm so sorry. Poor you.' etc etc.
Now let's see if anything happens...
