It is rare that someone dies from a kiss, however, it is possible. The reason why it is rare is because most people who marry someone who has landed in the hospital from a severe reaction has made the choice to avoid those foods as well, for the safety of their mate. This means that No, it is not okay for you to tell me that I just don't kiss my mate that day when he has ate something I am very allergic too. We do not know how long that protein lasts in an active state that might kill me. (Bold wasn't working.)
Yes, you may argue that Tree Nut and Peanut allergies are so lethal that of course we need to be more careful with these allergies. I would argue, however, that we need to be careful regardless of what the allergy is - especially if they are severely allergic. If you carry an epi-pen for the allergy, then you should be wary of kissing your mate if they ate what you are allergic too. The more severe the allergy, the more likely your eating of that item can kill your mate. I do know of one person who avoids certain foods because his wife is extremely allergic.
Currently, I am unaware of any studies that are testing how long a particular food protein remains active. I do know that anecdotal evidence is being taken very seriously, which is why the death of a teenager received such wide spread attention. I have to be extremely careful of Avian proteins. He eats Chicken, for example, I won't be able to kiss him until he's seen a dentist and had a professional cleaning that includes flossing. Overkill? I react to the poultry lorry (truck) driving by and react to simply walking into KFC. I would rather be safe then sorry! However, a very good floss job and teeth cleaning job - that includes the cleaning of the tongue, should work even if this isn't done by a dentist. I would recommend using an electric water jet to help remove the food particles that you just loosened between your teeth.
Do speak with your dentist about proper techniques to get your teeth and mouth as clean as possible at home. Mention your mates severe allergies and how important it is for you to remove all traces of protein.
Remember: ONE KISS CAN KILL ANYONE WITH A SEVERE FOOD ALLERGY EVEN IF THAT FOOD WAS ATE SEVERAL HOURS EARLIER! STOP LYING TO US ABOUT HOW A KISS WILL NOT KISS US!
Thanks!
signed one who is sick and tired of the bloody idiots out there!

Raw Foods Diet, B12 and Heart Surgery
I am NOT a Doctor and what I say here is my own opinion and is not expressed to treat, cure or diagnose a disease or illness and is not meant to replace or substitute for the advice of a doctor. With that said, the below is strictly my own opinion on what I would do if I had heart surgery, or had heart surgery and diabetes.This also applies is surgery is done where the ilium is effected, as medical science has proven that those who have had surgery that affected the ilium do not process synthetic B12.
If I have had heart surgery, then I would NOT recommend synthetic vitamins as my sole source of B12 UNLESS my Doctor tests my B12 levels and found them to be fine. I'd also get these levels tested every 6 months or so. Why? There is increasing evidence that points to synthetic forms of B12 is not being absorbed by those who have had heart surgery. My cousin says that he can tell when he has not had a satisfactory source of protein from a non-vegetable source. A Raw Foodist who has been a vegetarian for many years, but then went on the Raw Foods Vegan diet found that she had problems absorbing enough B12. She also has had heart surgery.
Thus, I would add Dairy to my diet to get my B12 sources, as long as I could digest milk or cheese on a daily basis. However if I were diabetic, then I'd recommend Salmon, twice a week, but then eat Raw foods otherwise, and skip the dairy. The reason is that when a group of PCMA Doctors did a study, they found that the Vegan diet reversed diabetes, but the control diet had some damage to the kidneys. However, the control diet ate fish and chicken. The other diet was the so-called "recommended" diet for those with diabetes. This diet included Beef and Chicken. Diary comes from the same animals that Beef and Chicken comes from (even though technically, egg isn't dairy). Thus, I recommend eating fish instead, if I had heart surgery and was diabetic too.
However, if you have not had heart surgery, then your body most likely will digest B12 from Synthetic sources very well. Nutritional Yeast only contains 5% of the RDA for B12, thus supplements are recommended. Also, do get your B12 levels tested by a Doctor every 6 months to a year to be sure that your body absorbs synthetic B12 properly. You will find elsewhere, at least one suggestion that Nutritional Yeast twice a week with no supplements are fine on a Vegan diet. I disagree as this gives you too little B12 per week according to the FDA recommendations. You would only get around 10% of one day's recommended B12 to last you an entire week! Not good at all.
According to USDA.gov , 1 large Egg, the Egg whites only, contain .03 Vitamin B12, the same as 1 Cup White Raw Mushrooms. This would be the fresh Button Mushrooms. Also, it is said that vitamins B1, B3, C, E and the minerals Iron and Copper can damage the B12. This is why taking B12 supplements with Orange Juice isn't a good idea. Supplements with concentrates of B12 greater then 20 mcg will give you a better chance of absorbing the B12 given the fact that other vitamins destroy B12. 2.4 - 2.8 mcg is the recommended intake for B12 as of 1998. However, I wouldn't be too concerned about overdosing as no toxic effects have been found yet for B12.
B12 vitamin deficiency signs include fatigue, weakness, weight loss and loss of appetite, numbness or tingling in the hands or feet, balance issues, confusion, depression, poor memory, dementia, constipation and of course, anemia. A deficiency can cause permanent nerve damage.
In conclusion, those who have had heart surgery should check with their doctor to be sure they aren't anemic and shouldn't rely on synthetic vitamins. Incidentally, shots for anemia is usually not recommended for those who have had heart surgery. Your doctor can tell you more about this. I'm told that it can be lethal. Fish twice a week, with a Raw Foods diet otherwise, is what I would do if diagnosed with Diabetes and have had heart surgery. Otherwise, I'd use Dairy sources to avoid killing to eat. Do see Dr. Neal Barnard for information on Vegan diet's effect on reversing Diabetes.

Why am I writing this in this way? The FDA is very particular as to who says what, and what is said. They prefer drugs as cures as they believe that no food can ever cure or reverse disease or illness. They only want you to believe that drugs are necessary for everything thing we have a drug made to cure or treat. Sorry, but I would also support the disbanning of the FDA and instead having a Food Association and then another department that is the Drug Association.

Regional Discrimination from Canada?!?
Bloody Discriminatory Link: http://www.tlntv.com/Recipes/category/David-Roccos-Dolce-Vita-Recipes?page=5
Why the bloody hell are they saying for Canada only? I get the show IN AMERICA! Why are so many Media sites that deal with TV shows BANNING USA from viewing their content? What did we do to them? It is NOT the type of licensing issue where they lack the international license to accommodate USA. Canada IS Region 1. I should have these stupid archaic issues with EU shows.
To say that I am over discrimination by where someone lives is an gross understatement. It is WAY PAST TIME for us to STOP BANNING PEOPLE BECAUSE OF WHERE THEY LIVE! This is a global world with products being sold all over the world from all over the world. It is time that all products were avaliable everywheres including the privileged, discriminatory, racist entertainment media! Down with the site, tv channels, and shows that discriminate by territory!

Idiotic Brainless Cops...
I have MUCH respect for cops. However, sometimes they make bad choices.
IF a guy is KNOWN to be abusive...
IF a guy is ORDERED to stay away from specific person...
IF a guy violates order often...
THEN Why the bloody hell are we letting this guy stay OUT of prison?
Why are we letting him out on bond after he has violated bond just so he can murder?
Why do we not take domestic violence seriously?
Why do we not care who dies because of domestic violence?
Why do we not care to teach our children how to deal with violence and stop it?
Why do we not teach life skills, Behavorial Modification techniques, and other Dialectical Behavioral Therapy to children so that they will have better chance of being healthy citizens?
Why do we not teach people how to overcome Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder?
Why do we not teach people how to overcome abusive childhoods?
When we do not educate people, they often become abusers just like the people who previously abused them.
When we do not keep dangerous people who violate bond or parole in jail, we in effect say we support them killing whomever they may.
I realize that Prisons are over crowded. I realize that we don't have the money to keep everyone jailed who should be in jail. However, I think it is time we start educating people from the age of THREE YEARS OLD so that we can have less people being violent.
One mother died at the hands of her ex because cops rearrested him for violating bond, but let him go within two hours time. He was initially arrested for abuse. I do not know one cop who says Domestic violence cases are easy to deal with. They all say that domestic violence cases are the most dangerous cases to walk in on.We now have a child without her mother... all because the cops were to foolish to keep a dangerous con in jail.

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.
