I think the nuts part came from you’d divorce your wife if she put a fiber supplement in your food and be afriad the next thing she might do is poison you. You may want to ask your parents/friends if that would be their reaction. That and all those extreme scenarios you threw out there.
He knew you were a “sneaky cook”?For the record, I did eventually tell my husband that I put the fiber supplements in the smoothie. He groaned then shrugged, but there was no dramatic threat of divorce, no suggestion that he can no longer trust me. He married me knowing full well that I am a tease, a prankster, and especially a sneaky cook. I try to get away with as much as I can, and often make a game out of it, having him guess the secret ingredient.
The whole idea was an experiment. I wanted to find an avenue for the fiber that would be agreeable to him, and apparently it worked. He asked for a smoothie, and taking advantage of the opportunity, I fixed it as I saw fit. As the chief preparer of food in our household, it is always my prerogative to fix meals and snacks as I please. Ever heard of the placebo effect? It works with food, too, and sometimes not for positive results.
They were not brand name Metamucil by the way, but the generic equivalent with orange flavor. He even commented that liked the orange flavor in the smoothie and wanted more orange in it. I told him I could add a lot more orange next time.
Ok thanks for not thinking i am a troll.
By the way, my 2 year old helps me make the smoothies. He sees everything that goes into it. Where’s the deception in that? Just because he doesn’t understand that its good for him, doesn’t mean I’m being deceptive.
you are so missing the point its not about the fiber, you are merely seeing the surface.
Actually he said no metamucil… not no to fiber. She didn’t give him metamucil. She gave him a smoothie which had fiber in it. The objection to metamucil had nothing to do with it’s content(fiber and sugar) but everything to do with it being an ‘old persons drug’ it’s reputation as such would be in the name of th eproduct and how it is advertized. He objected to products marketed to old persons… not to all fiber. My point is that she didn’t dishonor his wishes in the first place… He wanted to be rid of constipation, He didn’t want to take metamucil. So she gave him a fiber smoothie, not metamucil. She didn’t give him something he said no to she didn’t give him poision, she didn’t hide his DNR or even plot his murder. She gave him fiber in a smoothie.
Yes, and you’ve used several previously that you then refused to discuss further when their factuality and relevance was questions. Once again, your examples are required recasting the particulars of the OPs situation to a degree that your example was obviously not relevant to the events described. Your pattern of repeatedly tossing out and then immediately abandoning only tenuously relevant but outrageously extreme examples is standard trolling behavior and was what brought forth my accusation previously, that you’ve reverted to it yet again isn’t doing much at all for your credibility.
); the actual alcohol cooks out, entirely or mostly, depending on what you’re making, but it reacts with other ingredients as it burns off in ways that make unique and interesting tastes (caramelizing various sugars, producing new esters and so forth).
To me, it sounds like her husband was trying to ‘ask without asking’ for exactly what she made for him, and he liked what he got. If you never want any surprises whatsoever in your food, cook for yourself! Otherwise, relax and enjoy. 
Considering he has been using the term to categorize adding food grade fiber in a smoothie as functionally equivalent to adding true drugs, poisons, and other non-food items, I was actually questioning how/why he was categorizing it within that same connotation. He has been specifically excluding / ignoring that fiber sources are among the legitimate ingredients to include in preparing a smoothie, so it is clear he was not using it in the cooking sense (which I honestly hadn’t heard of before in a “positive” sense, but I did see references along the lines you described when I went and looked to get a better grip on the usage of the word).
That may have been a poor example because of regional quirks, then again that the recipe varies without those used to one style knowing to alert others that their’s is different underlines that people normally do not pre-declare all the ingredients of a food when it is prepared according to what the understand to be a reasonable ingredient. (In these parts it is frequently made with mashed potatoes, into which cream is often added during the mashing for better consistency.)
Which is probably more the point that I think others have been making. For someone with a known paranoia about changes to what is expected and always having to be informed of and give advance approval of every detail that may impact them it would be inappropriate to try to circumvent their “safety” controls without grave reason. However, someone living in that extreme needs to realize it is not a betrayal of trust in the relationships of other parties for them to not follow the same regimen between themselves, and that essentially condemning others for not following his own chosen controls is unreasonable, especially when unwilling to consider significant details of the situation.but the OP knew the victim just fine.
He said cream in the potatoes in Shepherd’s Pie. Mashed potatoes are normally made with milk or cream. So, if you’ve ever had Spepherd’s Pie, chances are it’s contained milk or cream.
i WILL PUT THIS IN BOLD BEING AS i HAVE ANSWERED YOUR QUESTION YOU JUST CHOOSE TO NOT READ THE ENTIRE POST… i CANT IMAGINE WHY YOU ARE SO STUCK ON SOMETHING LIKE THAT BUT UNDERSTAND THIS IF YOU CAN , NOONE HAS THE RIGHT TO SPIKE ANYONES FOOD, OR DRINK WITHOUT CONSENT,IF SHE IS GIVING HIM OATMEAL COOKIES AND THEY HAVE NO ADDED SUPPLEMENTS THEN THATS FINE HE KNOWS WHAT TO EXPECT, IF SHE ADDS HER “SECRET INGREDIENTS” THEN NO SHE HAS NO RIGHT WITHOUT TELLING HIM… CAN YOU READ THIS NOW???
Sheesh, relax.
Being sneaky is being sneaky - ‘spiked’ is different. ‘Spiked’ means adding an actual drug or poison of the legal or illegal variety (alcohol, narcotics, aspirin, cyanide or such). If you’re going to use words, learn their proper meanings.
I understand all that about secret family recipes But the man said a direct No to the fiber she did it anyways, thats not love that is trying to be the controller
…and I said I didn’t want elk.
ahh but you see this is where this whole things takes a turn, because the man said NO to it originally it becomes “spiked”
I understand that and to me its wrong to serve you something you didnt want, if they had told you before you ate it then no problem
