Fried foods

Hi :)

I'm wondering if anyone else with a colostomy has problems when eating fried foods such as deep fried fish or deep fried egg rolls?

Thanks

Can't say about the fish but nothing else has really bothered me.

Hi Sun...  I love Fish n Chips  and there are only a few places where   I don't have a problem .  In the old days  Irish  Food places used  Lard . It's the Lard that gives french fries and fish batter that great flavour . Lard is now off the menu in Ireland .  They use Canola generally . Don't know what it is with the oil but I always have to get a Doggie Bag  if I order Fish n Chips . Eating the whole lot at once would have me feeling like I ate a Cow  !! (  Homer  🤯) .  What is really the Best is  where Salmon is used instead of Cod  or other white fish .  The remedy   for this  feeling in my belly   is a quarter teaspoon   of Baking Soda  in a bottle of water , works really well .

What kind of problems are you thinking of? I have found different foods react different with different people. Most people say try just a little of anything and see how it affects you. Some people have problems with fried food because of other problems. Best wishes

Great tip!

Hi Lovely,

I have found fried foods make me 'run to the washroom' so to speak. I don't eat out that much. It's kind of a treat to go get fish&chips. 

But I think I need to look for something different now. 😕

Thanks

Hi Ladies  ,  Sally you should try making Salmon fish and chips at home . You should Peanut Oil  because it has the highest burning temperature . You can get the oil really hot before slowly sliding the battered fish into the oil  and soak up as much oil as possible  with paper towels when you take it out . Peanut oil ( caveat emptor ...as regards Allergies ...careful  !! )  is  Great  for Stir Fry  because you can Sear at a high temperature .

   With some oil I get this extremely annoying persistant feeling , almost like a Stomach Ulcer  before I am half way through eating . Peanut oil does not have this effect on me . . Same with Spuds but different Spuds have a greater or lesser effect  , I just eat enough to begin to feel full and then stop and finish later .  One egg , just a soupspoon of milk , a good dose of sea salt  and finely chopped green onions ...the perfect spuds recipe . If you use a hand held Wand you get really creamy spuds ...Kitty loved my special mashed Spuds .  As I say , a little Baking Soda ( not Baking Powder ) in a bottle of water should have you enjoying your battered fish again  Lovely   🤗☘

Thanks! That does sound yummy! I will try it.
