Health food is bad for you. All I've had today is a mug of sage tea (caffeine-free drink) and a load of pumpkin seeds (supposedly healthy snack), but something has managed to make me violently ill. I suspect the pumpkin seeds, because I felt okay (well, tired, but that's normal) until I'd had a few handfuls of them... after which I felt drowsy, headachey, and extremely nauseous, until actually being sick.

Is it possible for things to make you sick that quickly? If not then it must have been the steak at the Mill last night.

I am now at home, where I can lie down & feel grotty in peace. This does however have the welcome side-effect that I can listen to acronym on CUR1350 - hence the nicely appropriate subject line, because he's just dedicated the track of that name to me.

They tasted fine, and they were bought from a health food shop (in the food section, next to all the dried fruits and seeds and nuts and stuff) so I'm pretty sure they were intended for human consumption...

I can normally digest anything any time, empty stomach or not. Though actually thinking about it, the reaction was a bit like trying to eat on a really really gruesome hangover (you know, when you wake up after a really heavy drinking session and think "maybe breakfast would help", and you turn out to have been wrong). So maybe it was something I ate/drank last night...
