Re: sunflower seeds and slurpees

I don't know, but I had an incredible apple cider slurpy today at a nearby

orchard. I was just ice and freshly pressed cider. I'm going to be making

this for our family now.

As long as nothing but salt has been added to the sunflower seeds. Read the

label carefully... my husband (not on SCD) is a sunflower seed nut and recently

discovered that his favorite brand of seeds-in-the-shell actually had MSG added!

MSG may not be SCD illegal... but I would hope everyone would want to avoid it

anyway.

Keep in mind (especially other list members who may be reading this) what BTVC

says about seeds:

<<Do not use seeds of any kind until three months after the last symptom has

disappeared and then try them cautiously>>.

I have no clue about the 7-11 Slurpees... I can't imagine wanting to take the

chance. I doubt they just pour diet Pepsi out of the can onto the ice, they

probably use some sort of syrup version of the Pepsi. Diet or not, I would be

uneasy about what else might be in it. You'd have to ask the 7-11 manager for a

written list to verify no illegals.

Why not just enjoy the *occasional* cold diet Pepsi on it's own? Is this for

your 7-yr-old?

sunflower seeds and slurpees

Are roasted sunflower seeds in the shell legal? I know that roasted peanuts

are, so would the same apply to sunflower seeds. Also does anyone know the

ingredients in the 7 Eleven slurpees. I was told that the diet pepsi slurpee is

just ice and diet pepsi? Is this true?

Thanks

Please avoid the artificial sugars contained in Diet Pepsi and other

diet sodas. They can mess up the brains of children. There are books

written about this topic.

I need a little clarification about this whole seed thing. Recently,

someone made a comment regarding seeds that led me to believe that you

should not use seeds even in their ground form(cumin, fennel, corriander,

ect.). The comment was that seeds should be introduced a bit further into

scd, not at the beginning. Now, I'm reading that seeds should not be

introduced until all symptoms are eliminated for a while. Can I use the

ground spices? I use cumin very regularly for fajita marinades and other

Mexican recipes.

Meleah,

Ground cumin and coriander are legal as spices for cooking, I know that. I don't

remember reading a post in which anyone said they were not. Sorry for the

confusion.

Thanks for all your replies. I do give my son the occasional diet soda. He was

out with friends who got a slurpee ( he go a diet soda) so I thought I would

look into the slurpee.
