Guest guest Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 I use it all the time and love it. I've read where there are even people who have used it a long time suddenly get sick from it. For me its all good so far. Sorry to hear it sickened you. Anita qweiop75 <qweiop75 wrote: I bought some Quorn cutlets a few years ago, and became violently ill a couple of hours after eating one. Although some have asked why I continued to eat them, it's because I blamed it's not always easy to figure out which food item causes such illness. It wasn't until the 3rd bout (over about 2 wks time)-- which took me to the ER from uncontrolled vomiting/dizziness, and weakness -- that I realized the only thing I'd eaten each of the 3 times was the Quorn. Last fall, I went to a Thanksgiving cooking class at WIld Oats. The cook told us she'd made one dish with Quorn; one with Tofu because, she said, some folks get a sick from Quorn. I ate the tofu one, but a couple of years had passed since my fateful meetup with Quorn, and I figured just one bite wouldn't hurt. That's all I had...1 bite. Then I completely forgot about it, until about an hr or two later when I started to feel nauseated. I made myself vomit to avoid the hours long episode I was familiar with. I just want to warn those of you who are new to being veg. Quorn is the only food I've had this trouble with. I don't tend toward food troubles otherwise. I don't know what it is about me, or what it is about Quorn...I do know its a mycoprotein, which seems fungal- related (molds?), which makes me wonder if there's any possible connection to penicillin-allergy. Does anyone else here get really ill from Quorn who is also allergic to penicillin? or who isn't allergic to it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 I eat this product like there's no tomorrow. I could eat a sandwich made from the roast every day Chelsea , Anita <anita4wfb wrote: > > I use it all the time and love it.
