is this an allergy?


Recommended Posts

i was eating beef lo mein earlier and the roof of my mouth started to swell and get very very painful, especially these two nodules on either side of the back part of the "hard roof". and then right behind the "hard roof" is the "soft roof" and these bumps that hurt like shit started appearing. everything went away after like 15 minutes but it was terrible and i'm confused because i've eaten lo mein before (though i'm not sure beef-style) and i have no food allergies. any ideas?

that's probably what it was.

 

msg is also very dangerous for asthmatics apparently. if you have asthma and like chinese food, make sure to ask if they use msg. you could find yourself in a bit of trouble if you don't. msg was banned in australia about a decade ago. i imagine it would be much the same across the world
