My wife refuses to allow a clothesline for the very reasons you mentioned. Well, that and she thinks it's low class. (I am just the messenger)
2) Homes are now air-conditioned, with filters, and children spend less time outside. Again, they are not being exposed to small amounts of environmental allergens early in life.
I agree. We open our windows whenever we can. But, when we built the house we have to pretty much prove it was air tight to the building inspector to get the permit.
I know it hurts me to do so but at least my reasons are a little more 'non hippy'... Its not about 'the planets sacred maaannnnnnnn' Its more about For Christians) God probablly gave us the right foods for our body For Atheist) We evolved with this set of food proteins why muck it up.. Whatever the case remember when margarine was sooooooo much better for us than butter? -- The one I noticed the most is keeping fresh cut, locally grown lavender in the house Hmm My wife has some allergies Ill have to look into the lavender.
Mmmmmmmmm I sitting here eating reduced fat chunky peanut butter out of the jar....yum.
there is money to be made convincing city women they are allergic to life. The campaign has been successful
......children spend less time outside.....
Many girls beyond the age of 12 virtually never go outside.

Too many people are now growing up in artificial urban environments. They just don’t develop normal immune systems.
Yep your right....I’m looking at the jar and they’re all in there but boy is it good!!!!!
Yes, and surprisingly, I can’t use hair color at all. There is metal in almost every hair coloring, it’s a fixative for the colorant. Could be lead, iron, nickel, or other metals, but they are there, as I found to my painful surprise.
All my jewelry is yellow gold, at least 12K. And still, some of that will break out my skin. It doesn’t help to use gold-filled jewelry, either, I can tell almost immediately.
I developed an allergy to shellfish after I had 2 cat scans. I used to eat shrimp (and all shellfish) all the time, then, after the cat scans I started reacting to them.
I believe that when they injected the iodine into me for the scan, they made me sensitive to the shellfish. I pout very loudly about it.
Your taste buds are lying to you! LOL
I have been allergic to curry all my life. I’ve tried it three times, and each time it resulted in violent hurling, immediately. I do like the flavor, but within about 30 seconds I’m gone.
Curry has a bunch of ingredients, but I’m suspecting that the ingredient that gets me is corriander. Corriander is the seed form of the leafy cilantro, which sort of makes me sick as well.
Not really.....I love to cook and eat so a little less fat in my peanut butter won’t spoil my appetite...Hey I knocked off about 15lbs since February on SB Diet, so this is “cheating” for me!!!
Thanks for the ping.
I meant that the flavor enhancers make the peanut butter taste good, without them being added, it would NOT taste as good. Fat adds flavor.
Getting the same way. Only about 13 years left... that is if it lasts that long.
And note the differences in Sodium content among the peanut butter products on the shelf. Some have zero (Krema). My preference, Krema, is more liquid and needs to be stirred, so I think it might have to do with the Sodium being used as a thickener.
