Default Buffalo wings don't contain Tensilon, do they? LOL

This is a really strange phenomenon, and I'm not sure what to make of it, but the collective knowledge and expertise of the people on this forum is quite remarkable so I thought I'd see if any of you have any insights.

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)

Thanks,
Tatia
