Ode to Cheez-Its (which will soon turn into Annie's Organic Cheddar Bunnies, as there is less unnecessary ingredients)
Orange squares transfer
salt crystals to my tongue.
A zesty crunch to the
taste of melted cheese
throughout my mouth, spreading to
my whole being.
Dear Cheez-Its, your
wheat does not turn my stomach or head, your
dairy does not swell my throat.
I can enjoy you now,
every square your red box gives.

Happpeeee! My wheat reaction used to cause an itching of the hand upon a mere touch, and one fragment would send my body into attack. Now, two years later, it's almost gone! Only very few reactions remain after eating six or so servings of wheat. Miracle? Yes, thanks to skilled doctors and the grace of God! The severe reaction I had had led me to believe that I would never get wheat back. It's also a milestone in that wheat was the first established allergy, and now I'm leaving more and more behind. Next battle is bringing down those genetically pre-determined ones...
