Runs. :eek:

Everytime I eat her cooking, I get the runs, or pretend not to feel bad. Whats a nice way to say "Your food sucks" like... Akani's cooking in the silly Ranma 1/2 series.

No go, she insists. Though I would have probally just got tacos anyways at DelTaco 3 for 99 cents .
How about... "Let's eat out for the rest of our lives."

ROFL!!! That's going to be a fricken hilarious conversation!

I'd say just tell her. But try to keep a straight face when you do.

Do you know what exactly about her food gives you the runs?
Try to pinpoint that and tell her to use less of it.

"I think I might have a reaction to something you're putting in your food - it seems like it goes right through my system"

Do see if you can narrow down ingrediants to see what the prob is, but if nothing else she knows the prob after that.

just suggest that you make it together, and then notice what she puts into the dinner. or anytime you start feeling crappy, just mention it to her, and say "i wonder if its something i ate today" and then continue to ask how she made dinner, but do it in a non-threatening way

well do you like the way the food tastes? If you do, just tell her you love her cooking but you get the squirts from it. In the case you don't like the way it tastes, run for your life.

Sounds like it's time to really clean the kitchen and fridge with a solution of bleach and water,also go thru food,check dates and discard things,check the temp on the fridge too,meat might be going slightly bad.

Why do you have to apologize? Tell her that it upsets your system and that it makes you uncomfortable. Does she feel like she has some right to keep you uncomfortable? She's upset that you don't like her cooking? Try working with her on making her more emotionally stable...

Somehow I think this is hilarous. Besides the fact she isn't picking up the phone...

Let the truth set you free, or goto h3ll...

You should try not saying stupid things.
