My goodness LauraSue, as far as I know those aren't common ones, are they? That rather begs the question, are you fructose sensitive as well?
Hmm, how well I know about that horrid feeling in your throat...with me, it's not so much like I can't breath, more like constriction pain that is lower. I'm actually glad now when I get the hives, it's a warning to start investigating to find the cause. I've been fortunate for many years now that I've not had to go to ER.

Moderation is right!!! I should have known better than to keep exposing myself, day after day to so much cocoa...........that'll teach me!!
BTW, just had some hot carob, like hot cocoa. Not bad, not the same thrill one gets from real chocolate.... so guess I'll just have to get my thrills from somewhere else.
