    I know when Aaron McCargo use grapeseed oil once, he said he used it specifically because it has a different boiling/burning point ...

    Of the three oils - olive, canola, and grapeseed, I am allergic to all but the grapeseed!

    I had never heard of grapeseed oil until recently!

    Having bitten into some grapeseeds and noticing that they were bitter I would have never thought about them being used for oil!

    I just checked online to see what it costs and saw three prices -6.84 to 7.99 for 16 ounces. Probably cheaper at the store?

    FN generally spares no expense with anything. They want to introduce everything out there, no matter what the cost.

    Karen, what do you cook with? You must be allergic to most everything and that must stink.

    Thanks Barry!

    Butter, or peanut oil or corn oil if I "need" an oil. It's a challenge, feeding me!

    I'll bet it is. I once worked with a girl that was allergic to almost everything. She couldn't touch most of the materials we worked with so she had to wear gloves all the time(eventually, the gloves bothered her). She spent alot of time being tested somewhere(I want to say the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville). I'm pretty sure she had to resign due to allergies.

    I can't imagine being allergic to so many foods and having to be careful of everything I eat or drink.

    You get used to it. Paul has been known to tell people - "It's okay, she's just allergic to Food." So I protest loudly!

    I just have to be careful - and picky, or I pay the consequences.

    I just saw a segment of "Chopped" on the tube and I figured out what it's based on.


    The late night coming home from ingesting ethanol and inhaling hemp.

    You stand in your kitchen and declare to your date whom you adore and have invited in for a bite to eat-based on tonight's ingredients-
    I want to make Arctic Char, creamed corn and something with tamarind. You feed it to your 'date' and they soundly critique you after they eat the crap you cooked!

    I'm allergic to so much stuff, you'd think I'd be a beanpole. Nope. Still fat, lol. It's just not fair!!
