Doooooom.

Note to self:

Apparently, the unidentifiable "chili" sauce on the Ruby Tuseday Thai shrimp is one of those egg-based sort of things. :( I was afraid of that.

If anyone needs me, I'll be under my desk.

Are you allergic to eggs or icked out?

[featherynscale.livejournal.com]

I tolerate them very poorly, particularly the yolks, and even more particularly when they are raw. This seems to have been related to a MMR-2 immunization. They tell you to avoid eggs for a few days after the shot, but I never got back to the "able to manage them" level.

It's generally pretty easy to avoid eating raw egg, but sometimes sauces are sneaky egg vehicles.

I wouldn't think of a chilli sauce being based on raw egg, it would not occur to me

No, in my mind, a chili sauce would be either a sweet/sour sort of sauce (which would be corn-based? who knows!) with chili flakes, or a paste like a Sriracha. This was sort of an orange creamy kind of a thing that ostensibly had some chilies in it somewhere. Not entirely unlike the sauce in a spicy tuna roll, except creamier and less spicy. I looked at it and thought, "Should I eat that? I don't know... could be trouble. On the other hand, it could be fine, and it's all over everything, and I've already ordered this..." These thoughts are forbidden from returning to the premises of my brain. If I see them again, I will shoot them for trespassing.

My mom suffers migraines and a lot of food triggers it, so she always asks. Eating with her is an education into what restaurants put in food, sometimes I roll my eyes because she asks if something has msg or citrus, only to find out it does.

If you have problems with eggs, you might be careful getting a flu shot. Those are egg based.
