That is almost exactly how I am (except the eggs which I can eat by the doz)
Raw Vidalia's no problem, but caramelize them and I've got heart burn for
days.
Garlic the same way. Lightly cooked, or even uncooked as in Cesar salad is
no problem, but brown them and I'm a gonner. That's not to say I don't like
this stuff, it just doesn't agree. It's really strange too, I can eat hot
peppers, food with the hottest of sauce on it with zero heart burn or
indigestion. Go figure.
