Dried Polish mushrooms? That sounds about as appetizing as dried horse bisquits. You quite sure the threat to your life wasn't from whatever you consumed prior to ordering such an unusual entre, or even from whatever beverage you must have consumed in great quantities to wash this stuff down your throat.

We are all thankful that you survived that incident.....honest.

I don't think anyone here is implying that you should stop thinking. We are just concerned that such thoughts could be hazadorus to your health.

Food allergies being used to power political movements is a turn off for most thinking people. Too many people though seem to think of people with life threatening food allergies as some kind of hypochondriacs , to the point that some seem to thing it is humours to expose them to the substance that can kill them. In such instances it is the duty of government to protect them by law, just as much as protecting the public from crime and other threats to law abiding citizens.

I can agree on what you said. I see both sides.

On Xmas eve 3 years ago, my mother made a traditional Polish mushroom soup using 10 times the record amount of mushrooms (dried, imported).

I spent Xmas eve and Xmas day in the hospital.
