I love the varied responses! I wish there was something she couldn't eat but she has an iron stomach and she can be a selfish pig for eating and drinking. It was especially uncomfortable because hub had a big intervention/fight with her some weeks ago and I don't think we had seen them since. But then some friends had invited us for the same day a long time ago and she made them give it up to her! Last time I went she made buffalo and fatty side dishes and I brought my own huge side dish, but this time I was hoping she would make something safe since she had asked about it. Hub had told her yesterday before we ate that there was nothing I could eat and she defrosted some cottage bread. But I just decided to eat plain penne with a teeny bit of EVOO. I had a Luna bar before we went in. Also I did not help in the least bit with dinner or cleaning! Ha! Sadly hub changed his nice opinion of the day later on and said he would not bring me with next time he gives a talk because I get too pissy when there is nothing I can eat. I was crying all the way home and then he said THAT to pour salt in the wound! Nice day! (I also got pulled over for speeding yesterday but didn't get a ticket). Maybe I will look back and laugh some day. Thanks for the support everyone!

"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
