the preservative

i think i have an intolerance to msg. i am not sure if i actually do, i have a tendency to be a bit of... alright a really big hypochondriac. i though i might have had a peanut allergy because the past two day my throat and tongue was swollen and the only thing that i could have eaten out of my normal consumption was roasted peanuts on tuesday and dark chocolate m&ms yesterday. but i ate almost an entire jar of peanut butter last week.
after a very detailed analysis of my eating habits with my roommates the only explanation is msg. i was able to waste valuable hours, not writing my paper, at 3am this morning looking up all the symptoms of msg intolerance. from my online work, i have discovered two possibilities to my ailments: 1. i am much bigger hypochondriac than i realized; or 2. i actual can no longer eat food containing high amounts of msg. i am going to do a test and spend the next two weeks avoided all foods with msg.
i think my years of eat the absolute worse food has actually caught up with me. i had been trying to be healthier (skinnier) the past two months. but this intolerance my actual force me to eat really well. there will only be snack of kashi and apples, and the dreaded candy and chips will be banned from my presence. i hope i can accomplish this, but i am not very optimistic.
