- polenta- in the beginning corn is a suspect food. It may be ultimately fine for you but try to avoid corn at the start of the strict version of the diet.
- dill pickles- are fine on the diet- unless you have an overgrowth of candida yeast in your gut, in which case fermented products (VINEGARS) are to be avoided
- buffalo jerky- if it has sweetener and jerky often does- it is to be avoided. Fresh buffalo meat is fine. Check the labels always for hidden sweeteners.
- chinese fried rice w/o egg- yes, just watch your intake of other saturated fats on a day you eat fried rice.
- shrimp- absolutely fine!
