Well darn.
I was all excited about drinking "dirty diet cokes" with the new flavors of creamer that have come out, until I got the results from my food sensitivity test...
It turns out that eggs, milk (casein)*, almonds, garlic, poppy seeds, and pomegranate are the trouble makers. Plan B is to get some sugar free Torani syrups, Plan C can be to explore dairy free creamers, and Plan D can be to drink plain old diet coke and coffee. I'm going to finish up what I have in the way of creamers, in either case.

Saturday and Sunday - kitchen closed
*Many foods contain casein, which is a protein found in milk. For example: milk, butter, yogurt, ice cream, half and half, sour cream, pudding, custard, sherbet, hot dogs, lunch meat, sausage, creamed soups and veggies, soup bases, white and milk chocolate, and dietary supplements and protein powders.

Happy Birthday Week, Gina! May your birthday season be full of love, deliciousness and joy.
I buy my flavored syrups at the restaurant supply as they are $4.50 for the big ones. Plus the variety is astounding! I'm putting up my first Christmas tree this week, too. I love the soft light at night. Have a great week!
Most Coffee Mates are dairy free... but probably not a chocolate one. :)
Its the casein I am sensitive to, not the lactose. CoffeeMate uses it to make the product "creamier".
Ah, never having had coffee mate myself I didn't know that. Thanks for the info! (I am not a coffee drinker).
I did an elimination diet a few months ago and boy, once I started eating normally again, what bothered me suddenly was screaming at me. I should be better, but the holidays...and I have no willpower! I hope knowing helps you out a bit!
