Whenever I have a really bad day, very weak most of the day, and feeling hungry at dinnertime: every time we go out for pizza and wings when I'm like this, my symptoms go away after eating buffalo wings with ranch dip and diet coke. (Before the pizza arrives.) I'm going to try to link to a video of the dramatic improvement:

I can't figure out what is giving the benefit. Other salty foods, fatty foods, spicy foods, vinegary foods, don't do it. Chicken for dinner at home doesn't do it. Diet coke or ranch dressing independent of the wings don't do it. The only other thing that has had this kind of consistent effect was crab puffs with some kind of soy-based dipping sauce from PickUp Stix. It didn't work if I didn't use the dipping sauce, but soy sauce by itself doesn't do the trick. Any thoughts? (Other than, "Geode is a nutcase!" or "now I understand why she's so big!" LOL)

Very impressive. I would try and eat each ingredient on its own (the chicken wing sauce, the chicken wings without the sauce and the ranch dip) to first see if its one of them or a combination. Also, try seeing if you have the same effect when its a takeaway at home (maybe something else in the restaurant is doing it and just being there for 10 minutes is what does the trick?). Also, try eating those things during lunch instead of dinner. Also try another sauce for the chicken wings. eat home-made chicken with the sauce from the restaurant etc.
