It's me really. I've survived six full anaphylactic shocks and it gets
worse each time. I'm also sesame seed anaphylactic as well and there
are still foods which haven't been pinpointed. The last spaghetti I
got was Salute but it has lupine flour and that would seem to be a
problem for me. It's also the taste. Some of the spaghetti is vile. DP
was the closest to a normal taste. I have some Italian pure rice pasta
shapes but I have to sea salt it and toss it in butter before I can
eat it. and I'm supposed to be on a low salt diet as well.
