I just ate a hunk of cheese the size of my forearm.

How much cheese is good for you? I love it and can't seem to stop eating it.



Good question -- possibly too good for a simple answer. Cheese, in my opinion, is a good, high-protein food IF (I repeat, IF) it is real cheese, without added color or extra junk. Also, the best cheese by far is from raw milk, which you can only get at a health-food store or a good food co-op. Cheese spreads and "pasteurized, processed cheese products" don't really qualify.

Now, here's the rub: If you crave cheese as much as you say, then you may be allergic! Many addictions work that way ... you stop ingesting the substance, you start to feel bad (withdrawal symptoms), then eating it makes the symptoms go away (for awhile) so you crave a "fix" again.

Giving up cheese (or dairy) for 21 days (yep, that's what it takes to know for sure) can sometimes get rid of problem symptoms you never related to dairy intake. They can be almost anything, such as fatigue, headaches, irritability, dry skin and many standard signs of allergy, like runny nose, sneezing, watery eyes, and itching. Others tend to be digestion related, with cramping, bloating, gas and slow digestion among the more prominent. The harder it is to quit, the better your chances to feel better afterward. Then you may be able to tolerate a limited amount each week without symptoms. If I'm wrong, at least the test has cost you nothing -- financially, anyway.

as long as you didnt eat your forearm, you should be fine. Just warn the people you will be around, and get a cushion for the porclean throne.

It came from the local Super 1 which I'm guessing doesn't count as a health food store.

Are cheese dumps pure liquid or hard like a rock covered in sandpaper?

i'm guessing more liquid, because cheese is a dairy product, and those usually come out the other end splattery.

Not unless you're lactose intolerant. Large amounts of cheese are like intestinal cement....well for me at least. 😉

Damn, I hope this doesn't make me late for work...
 
And you ate the whole... wheel of cheese? How'd you do that? Heck, I'm not even mad; that's amazing.
 
OK kids, eating a lot of cheese will cause you to not take a ****** the next morning. Yes, I love cheese, and that has happened. 😱 😛

If your office has a coffee maker, brew up a big pot and bring it with you into the crapper. 😉
