Some of the articles on this blog, will be cross-posted on my other website, http://www.allergicvegetarian.com.

I hope to start this project early this year.

Package design flaws to annoy those disabled

If you wish to contact, Colgate, then please enter a "swear word" into their search box, and it will automatically give you the right page. However, if you try to ask a question, and get it wrong, it will automatically give you a topic and insist this is what you want. I did find their form and put in a proper complaint.

Why Colgate? Well, their package design for the 2-pack softsoap refill, says they don't give tuppance for those with disabilities, elderly, or those not endowed with large mens hands. Now, my hands are a man's medium and I had difficulties using their product. I wonder what those with Dyspraxia would do with this product? I know that those with Cerebal Palsy that affects the hands would have issues. Those with female sized hands, would usually have problems too. Perhaps I should invest in a  grip to hold the bottle upside down while I hold the other bottle I'm trying to fill? Or, perhaps I should buy a extra long tube and use a scientific principle to suck the soap  upwards, to get it started, and then let the other end of the tube sit in the bottle I'm trying to fill?

Or, perhaps, I should just call up the local football team and have them fill it for me. There is an idea. Anyone know any Vikings out there? No, I'm not really into what you call football. I'm more of a Rugby and Football (soccer) sort, myself.

Oh yea, one last thing about that form. The address is so convoluted in how you enter it, that it more difficult to use. However, I just had this thought. That form may ACTUALLY BE BRILLIANT!  I just realized that if they are trying to use one form for all countries, then they might have to use that form which is confusing for those like me. I didn't know where to put the NW part of my address. In which case, I say kudos for that part of the form instead of "why can't you make a traditional form that is less confusing".

Great News! Congress passes new food laws!

And, those new food laws now require ALL manufacturers to print clearly on their food and drink labels every item contained in those food or drink products! April Fools!

Seriously, food allergies are no laughing matter. Its too bad that the Republicans don't care if we people with food allergies live or die! They have been the ones to vote against us knowing whats in our foods! What makes matter worse, is that some of these republicans have the audacity to claim that Jesus is their God! Jesus was never about killing. HE was about healing. He was about telling the truth. Its too bad that the republican believers think that to honor and worship Jesus means to tell white lies of omission about what is in our food. I am not talking about just the foods that contain "veggie broth". I'm talking about all foods that label "spice" or simply don't mention the broccoli, radish, cabbage, and so on. 1 in 250 people still have a rare food allergy, but because our population is now higher, that number has gone up.

Molested? Raped? Addicted? Get help now! (PG-13 discussion)

Why do 14 year olds rape? They rape because they were raped! Who raped them? People who themselves were raped. This is a generational curse that exists in this world because we have refused to say "no". We have refused to talk about it. We insist that it didn't happen and that there is nothing to talk about. We insist that we live in shame and pretend it did not exist and never did exist and can't ever exist. We also insist that naturalist camps are natural. They aren't. I know someone who was raped by one. The raper was kicked out of the camp. I know 3 people who for sure got a turn on from seeing kids at the camp in the natural state of attire. Who needs illegal sources when you get a legal source? Less viral too! :P Very against it = all of it! And this is coming from someone who used to be forced to attend such crap places. By the way, if you were to go to anyone's house who attended such camps, you would find lots of porn. They are ALL addicted (not the kids, the adults!) The only exception is the spouse who has no backbone and was afraid to say 'no'. That spouse is not necessarily addicted.

Petition to keep TV pure for Kids during the "decency" hours...

 Please read this post on it, that is on Peggy Sue's blog. Federal Judges declare war on America's Families

Parents TV Organization

What follows is my own experience. I put it behind a read more, because its not for children to read per se. Personally, I think that unless they know the truth, they will be vulnerable to fall to the world's lies. I am disallowing comments on this post because of the subject matter. Thanks!

Congress, Unintended Discrimination, and The Not so Secret rules of Grocery Foods

If only Key People were to read this and understand what I'm really saying... My Life would end up being a miracle!




I'd like to...
1) Inform Doctors that it is possible to be allergic to anything and that mathematically it is conceivable that they will meet someone who is allergic to an uncommon ingredient, despite what the peanut gallery wants them to believe.

2) Inform Congress that it is not fair for us with uncommon food allergies to risk death only because food and drink labels are missing foods we are allergic to.

3) Inform the Public that it is possible to have many allergies and that it isn't an indication of 'sin in life', not detoxing properly, having negativity within them, or whatever myth they dream up or have heard. Food Allergies are real and they are life threatening.


4) Inform Congress that it isn't right that they can choose who will be 'protected' and who we, as a society won't protect.  I feel discriminated against. I feel like I could die before their very eyes and they wouldn't so much as lift a finger. They would, but you get my point, I hope.

Somedays I feel like I'm playing Russian Roulette every time I grocery shop. Other days, I feel like I'm entering someone else's universe, a universe I don't belong in because I can't breathe their air, or eat their foods. I see aisles upon aisles of  foods, most of it I can't eat. I'm hungry, and sad because I can't have it. I want something I can eat on the go and can afford. I want something I can microwave.

I see the rules of foods, glaring me in the face...these aren't rules that society has intended to have. Its just that ignorance has brought these coincidences to glare these rules at me...

1) All prepacked foods must contain onion or canola oil.
2) All foods containing Veggie broth must not tell you what Veggie's are in that broth, lest we accidentally allow this product to be sold to the wrong person.
3) All canned tuna must contain hidden celery.
4) All Vegan and Vegetarian foods must not be labeled as such UNLESS they contain either Onion or Canola Oil.
5) All cans of foods at Costco must contain either onion or Canola Oil, or we can't sell it.
6) All "Buy this get 4 items free" must have customer buy Meat, Pork or Chicken and the free items must be Milk, Eggs, Dairy and a Gluten item. Lettuce may be substituted for 1 free item.
7) All 2 for 1 deals must be only for those who ate Beef, Chicken, Turkey or Pork. No Tofu can ever have such a deal. Nor can we honor Celiacs. They must never be given a break!
8) All myths concerning health risks of Scented Oils must be ignored as false and we must have these displays such that they contaminate as many aisles in the grocery store as possible. We must do everything in our power to keep people allergic to such displays from buying as much as we can from our store.

Yes, they do have to sell these products. And yes, I do have the right to not buy them. However...
When was the last time you went grocery shopping and found that you could not buy anything that would keep your blood sugar stable without ill effects? And all because you went into anaphylactic shock from walking into the store because their stupid display was right up front where you could not avoid it!

When was the last time you found while grocery shopping that none of the convient foods could you have when didn't have access to a kitchen?

When was the last time you realized that you forgot your precooked lunch at home and that you were without food and the grocery store was useless because you literally were allergic to everything that didn't need cooking that would keep your blood sugars stable?

When was the last time you had to make yourself ill because you had no choice and no other food options was available and you had to eat now or else you would be even more sick and might injure yourself due to physics and low blood sugar?And yes, by ill, I do mean you still feel like someone punched you in the stomach over and over again like some zealous bully who does not ever quite until someone makes them. I am not talking about a "minor" discomfort. I am talking about a very severe discomfort that is very painful. I'm also talking about nausea and pain in the joints as well.

I very seriously believe that hypo-glycemics are best off not having my food allergies. And that no one should have EE/EGID disorders. Sometimes I wish I did have formula so that in a pinch, I could just have that instead of eating. However, my stomach would still say "feed me" and that would drive me nuts! I feel for those who are on formula!

And yes, once more these words fall on deaf ears because the privileged majority has never cared to get out of their comfort zones. These people have never cared to help us. These people are fools I do not wish to associate with but because I also refuse to stoop down to their level of pride, I will associate with them and be civil. I will strive to teach them gently and with intent. Yes, only the squeaky wheel gets oiled. However, sometimes that squeaky wheel is better off speaking elsewhere where someone can hear, instead of in a blog that no one cares about because they don't need to care.
Am I Needy? No! I have done everything myself for many a year and will continue to do so. I will continue to speak and educate to the best of my knowledge. I will survive. Will You?
