Thanks for all your other suggestions, though . I'll try some

chicken/apple sausages - they sound really good.

Oh, yuck -- how TERRIBLE!!!!!! I hope someday you can venture out again and

take the 'big plunge'... I felt that way about Vietnamese food for awhile

when I had a bad reaction once. AGh! It may take awhile....

My girlfriend took me out to dim sum today for my b-day (it's the 21st --

I'll be the big 3-6) and it was heavenly. Hey, on the bright side -- you

aren't too far away from a major Chinatown! Just don' t head to the same

restaurant again! LOL

IF you need to know the brand of the apple-chicken sausages, I can look for

you. They are really delicious and pretty 'light'. I've found that many

sausages are kind of heavy tasting and also fatty. These are perfect!

All the best,
