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

Sheesh, what did she *want* you to do about it? Talk about female irrationality - why the heck would she be mad? I bet she's more just embarassed and acting mad to hide it.

Do see if you can narrow down ingrediants to see what the prob is, but if nothing else she knows the prob after that.
Paige has a good answer as always. I would also suggest not having anything caffeinated with the meal, caffeine seems to aggrivate those kinds of symptoms for me.

1. Eat dinner.


2. when the food gives you the "runs", stand on the dinner table, unzip pants and point your buttocks toward her face.


3. tell her, "honey, eat my sh!t"

I dont know, but its pretty gooey and strange, like most Mandarin food. Not that it tastes bad. Oil is not an issue of course, as I can eat tons of greasy food without any setbacks.

The thing I don't understand is, if it's the cooking, why isn't she getting the runs too? Does she have a cast iron gut?

That's a good way to give someone permanent mind trauma, not to tell them their cooking sucks. :p

I dont know, I guess she is used to eating it daily. Sorta like drinking Mexican water.

Whats a good way to say sorry now?

That's lame as $@*^ man...

She's mad at you because you have a BIOLOGICAL reaction to the food she cooks?!? AND you were honest about it?!?

It's not like you came out of nowhere and said you think she sucks at cooking and that you want to vomit every time you take a bite of the crap she dreams up.... you can't even help it!

Women are crazy.

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

or you could threaten her, your choice.
