Yep.

It's good, but too early on, it can be problematic.

Mara, now dairyless, but able to eat cashew butter.

Hyea..

If cashew butter were on my elbow I would eat my elbow too!

It's like crack- seriously.

I dig cashew butter, but I too had to give it up!!

Can't bring the stuff in the house either.

I despise giving up legals but its been necessary and as i have healed I have

been able to add stuff back in and boy is it yum!

Takes time and I am so impatient as it is.

Jodi that is my problem exactly. I lose all control when the stuff is around!

They need to make a gum to help me get over the addiction.

Seriously, I do believe that craving something so badly must be a bad sign that

something undesirable is feeding on it.

Dawn,

Totally they are feasting. Cashews are crazy high in starch!!

If I want something to the point of having dreams about it and like going

postal- I know it's feeding soemthing.

Maybe I should be glad that I have a cashew allergy. It forces me to resist the

temptation ;-).

Oh Holly, I don't know whether to be jealous or sad for you! My almond allergy

is what has me on the cashews...well now off of them.

I'm allergic to all the nuts :-(. Funny thing is, I always disliked nuts, and

pre-SCD, never consumed anything other then peanut butter (which I've also

tested allergic for). When I started SCD, I began to experiment with the

different nut butters and found out that my tastedbuds had been doing right by

me all those years! But even though I did test allergic to almonds, I've been

seemingly fine with them, so just keep on eating them *crosses fingers*.
