Do you know that corn is a killer food? And most beans? I used to snack on raw string beans and i mentioned to an SI person who is also a migraine sufferer that it was so unfair that I had a hideous headache because all i'd had to eat that day was virtuous things, including carrot sticks and raw green beans.

He told me about beans, and it's true. Damn.

Also bananas.

Not just peanuts, all nuts except pignolis! Seeds are okay. Oh yay.

MSG is killer, you're right. I've read that it isn't, but headache people know it is. Nitrites, too, which means no salami, hot dogs, bacon, etc.

Corn is a problem, not only because corn on the cob is so lovely, and corn bread, and spoon bread, and corn chowder, but because they put corn syrup in everything. No doctor told me that, some headache people in a doctor's office did, and then the health food store owner did, and it's sure true for me.

Not just blue cheese, all aged cheeses, even cheddar or swiss.

Rye bread is absolutely killer.

Some breads have a fresh yeast that is killer and i can only tell by trial and error which they are, and cultured foods like yoghurt are killer.

Of course, sometimes if a leaf falls, that's enough....
