Have you told the hosts about your illness? If you're worried about the mashed potatoes, maybe they can make a smaller bland batch for you.
Food poisoning0 -
geeze people if you are going to comment/give advice you could at least read the post?!
oh man ive had food poisoning around the holidays and it suuucked. i basically ate mashed potatoes and tinnnny bit of white mean feel better OP5 -
What a terrible time for food poisoning to strike! I had a horrible bout a couple of weeks ago, and pretty much subsisted on just gelatin and crackers for nearly three days.
Fruit is supposed to be a good transition food as you start adding foods after the BRAT (bananas, rice, applesauce, toast) diet. If there is applesauce or baked apples, you might try that. Or even the filling from a fruit pie (apple, cherry, berry). You might even try the cranberry sauce, but that might be too acidic.
Best of luck. Hope you feel better soon.0 -

I'm surprised it's only been about 3 posters who've missed the point of the post. I figured it would be more based on what we see in other threads.2 -

Food poisoning was Monday. Today is Thursday. I'm thinking you could eat anything by now and be ok. As for me....I will be eating it ALL!!! Good luck. I think you'll be fine.0

I wouldn't even touch the mashed potatoes because there's always butter and milk/cream in them, and that's really not good.
Sweet potatoes might be fine though, even if there's sugar added. And yeah... turkey, rolls.
That being said, it's been 4 days so you would probably be fine as long as you don't go nuts.0 -

I hope everyone has a happy Thanksgiving no matter how you do it!
So you didn't read the OP?6 -

YES I did but I was addressing the idea that we "must" log and account for it.0 -

No. I am not mixed up at all. I was just speaking on the holiday and being thankful no matter HOW one has their meal. You don't have to like it or accept it.0 -

So do you make it a habit of completely ignoring the OPs question and just answering the question you made up for them? Your response has nothing to do with what they asked. You might as well have said, "Don't eat less than 1200 calories" to a post asking if lentils were a good source of protein.7 -

so you made up your own post, question, and answer? So i can go on a vegan thread and talk about meat and logging because
i feel like it? just stop defending yourself... you didnt read the post and its cool whatever.6 -

Why did you purposely chose a post about food poisoning to share your kind words of wisdom on thankfulness for everyone?
Just curious.4 -

running my moth? my mouth is full of expensive champagne and delicious food... im typing.. so yea. it clearly does keep you up at night because you are so hostile. calm down u are on the internet.4 -
Not gonna lie, I'm really amused my thread took this turn. I'm also really amused by the people who obviously didn't read the thread and didn't catch on to the sarcasm with my tween-esque exclamation points in the title.
No GI problems today! I still overdid it and don't feel awesome right now, but that was due to quantity rather than type of food. I've been eating so little that my body was like WTF IS ALL THIS YOU'RE SHOVING INTO ME. But let's be honest, that probably would have happened anyway, because pie I'll happily start hiking all this off tomorrow!
Thanks again guys10 -
