Note to self: Don't eat any nuts


I just remembered that I cant seem to digest any nuts at all. On January 4, 2010 I bought a fruitcake filled with walnuts, and pecans, and maraschino cherries, and devoured about 25% of it over two days. Last night I was up all night with cramps and woke up to diarrhea and all the nuts were undigested. The same thing happened when I ate a whole bag of granola last year. My grandmother died in 1987 but she used to take off the nuts from anything she was eating, and she told me she couldn't digest them. Back then I had no idea what she was taking about. Now I understand with great clarity. Here is the fruitcake I bought from Costco. It has just as many nuts and fruit on the inside.
