At least the suggestions were the same category: food. Whereas today my suggested replacement for 2 ply toilet paper was whole almonds. I don't want to know why.
I see the issue. He forgot to turn of the “nagging mother” filter. It is the equivalent to a mom saying, “What? More chips? You think you need to eat more chips right now? Instead of junk food, why don’t you try some protein for a change? It’s good for you. Look here’s some you don’t even have to cook. You’ll thank me later.”
I could have saved a lot of money with a substitution at Kroger a while back if I'd accepted it. I wanted saline nasal rinse (a fairly big bottle, I think 60 mL). They wanted to give me -- AT THE SAME PRICE -- OTC Flonase, enough bottles to total 60 mL. That would have been about $90 worth of medicine for about $5. But it wasn't what I wanted...
This blog is entirely for entertainment purposes. All posts about patients, or my everyday life, or anything else may be fictional, or be my experience, or were submitted by a reader, or any combination of the above. Factual statements may or may not be accurate. I could be making all this up. I may not even be a doctor. The only true statement on here is that I probably drink more Diet Coke than you do. A lot more.

Tuna and salsa with beer by the TV. Heaven.
You obviously forgot the old advertising campaign: tuna, the chicken of the sea!
One of these things is not like the other, one of these things is not the same ...

LOL, And I thought that substituting salsa for spaghetti sauce was bad. Interesting days, these.
