When I was an alcoholic I diagnosed myself with lactose intolerance. I’d have the Gatling Shits and wonder ‘Hmm was it the 14 tallboy cans of beer last night or the half liter of milk I had for lunch? Must have been the milk.’

So your lactose intolerant huh? That sucks. I used to wonder what food was causing my rectum to bleed so much, but I’ve diagnosed that it wasn’t something to worry about until my 40s.
Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 3 hours ago
constipation can cause that, if shits are too hard too.

Dealing with bleeding in my 40s after putting it off for a few years, don’t recommend.

I didnt get lactose intolerance until I was in my 30s. So weird that my body just decided “Nah, Im good with dairy products” all on it’s own.
Really wish I would have discovered that earlier in life, before I developed my crippling cocoa pebbles addiction.

That’s actually the normal way your body is supposed to be. Most mammals lose their tolerance a little after they are weaned. Only some portions of humans retained lactase in their guts, generally groups that were pastoralists retained lactase and other groups didn’t. It’s why most east asian don’t have lactose tolerance but Mongolians, some Sub-Saharan Africans, and Europeans do.

Same, buddy. It was the milk for sure.

It’s fun to watch people self-diagnose food allergies.
AbsolutelyClawless@piefed.social 10 hours ago
In this case it would be an intolerance, and those you really do have to find on your own, unfortunately. And figuring it out can be extremely difficult.

You mean the tuna and the house sauce weren’t the two variables this guy tried isolating first?
He literally tried removing rice and all the vegetables before thinking “hmm, maybe it’s the tuna or the sauce.”
What a loon. He deserves every one of those awful shits.

Good science doesn’t start with biases friend.
Holytimes@sh.itjust.works 6 hours ago
Good science will use previous norms, findings and general trends to provide a more useful starting point tho.
wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 9 hours ago
Good science starts from the body of evidence we already know, creates a plausible hypothesis, and then tests that hypothesis to see whether it can be disproven.
We don’t say “hey, maybe gravity isn’t real so to be unbiased I need to assume it’s not and test every other possibility before determining what keeps making these bricks fall on my head every time I throw them up in the air”
No need to reinvent the wheel for every experiment.

Gotta do it in random order.

probably the “inhouse sauce”
SethTaylor@lemmy.world 8 hours ago
Fun fact: This is not actually much different from the process of testing which foods trigger your IBS after keeping the low FODMAPs diet, wherein you initially remove all possible triggers and then test one by one to see which ones you have specifically.

I feel like a binary search method would work too
groet@feddit.org 7 minutes ago
A Binary search requires a ordered data set. Something like "if you react to X, you will also react to any X+1, X+2… X+n. Food is not ordered, you cant know if you react badly to bell peper because you reacted badly to whole grain wheat.
Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 5 hours ago
No, it’s very different.
When you have multiple allergies/intolerances, starting at zero and then adding one thing at a time is a lot more efficient than removing one thing at a time.
Removing one thing at a time will create many false negatives, where you remove a hit but don’t notice because you left another hit behind.

And that’s why I came into the office drinking a bottle of house sauce.
SkabySkalywag@lemmy.world 11 hours ago
Pretty sure he’s forgetting the constant variable, where x equals the times the cook uses the porta potty divided by the times he does not wash his hands.
(i.e division by zero = butthole undefined, or maybe infinite diarrhea).
TheTechnician27@lemmy.world 13 hours ago
Flawed assumption. It could be both. You’ll need to eat there at least two more times to find out, assuming each trial yields 100% certainty.
Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 13 hours ago
In fact, they could be allergic to some or all of the ingredients eliminated. Or to the delivery driver’s personal hygiene.
DarkCloud@lemmy.world 13 hours ago
Or neither.
TheTechnician27@lemmy.world 13 hours ago
We’ll take them at their word that they’ve truly narrowed the variables to tuna and house sauce (i.e. they’ve eaten a meal consisting of only tuna and house sauce and gotten sick, but everything else has been properly eliminated), and thus the only logical options are T, HS, or T+HS.

Somebody needs to learn about a binary search.
(Assuming that there is exactly one ingredient causing the problem.)

Search Engine (podcast) had a 2 part episode on this that was interesting. They even did a DNA test on some samples of fish when trying to narrow down what it could be.
Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 9 hours ago
Pretty much every study I’ve seen where they DNA test fish shows that the fish was not even the type of fish it was labeled as.

There was a cheapo Japanese restaurant downtown. Plastic everything. Went there for lunch a while back. Worst Bento box ever.
Six months later. Hmm, Bento box sounds good. Go to this Japanese restaurant. Halfway through the awful meal, remember I’d been there! Swore never to go back. Again.
This cycle repeated SIX times.
What broke it was the whole building burning to the ground because of a grease fire.
Point is… hmm… Bento for lunch sounds good.

I have such good memories from my time in Fukuoka and the bentos on sale after a certain hour, it really was dirt cheap and super good. The japanese don’t fuck with food
