Grocery List!

So!
I made a list of foods that are acceptable and non acceptable... and whilst in the isles of the grocery store, reading every single ingredient on possible foods I will be eating, I realized this was going to be much harder than I had thought!

The major hurdle was all the soy that products contain... I never realized I consumed so much soy until we spent 4 hours grocery shopping and reading all the labels. We tried going to Trader Joe's for the first time, but I was extremely disappointed. Very small variety on herbal supplements and teas, could not find anything nettle or black cohosh related. Lots of fresh veggies and fruits but over twice the price of  Walmart. But I did find my gallon of aloe juice at Walmart for $7!!! I have yet to try it.

I also bought a juicer! There are tons of recipes for yummy juices to make with fresh fruits and veggies.
I'm kind of bummed out about not being able to have Pineapple, Cherries, Nectarines, and Oranges and Peaches. I have a super limited list of fruits I can eat now, due to allergies. Apples and Grapes are safe!
No cheese makes me a little sad too. (Except for ricotta)

I can still have my breakfast burritos in the morning with my rice tortillas... just no cheese in it... or sausage. And I can have coffee and real cream (no creamer) and sugar! That's a plus...

Here's the list of foods that now inhabit my fridge and cupboard!
