Potatoes in every shape or form

Potatoe is usually a guarantee of a dumping free meal. All shapes or forms are welcome. The problem is the ingredients that go with it. Nobody eats a dry jacket Potatoe, there will be beans, or cheese, or mushrooms or all together. The fries will be dirty or with red sauce. And the crisps... The crisps come with salt. While that won't cause a dumping episode it will certainly cause acid reflux.

A lot of esophageal cancer patients had heartburn before the diagnosis but I didn't but since surgery I have regular problems with reflux. Followers of my blog will know why, if you look at my diet. Anyway, crisps are still a good snack in the pub when you're peckish and can't eat anything else. 

*update*

Never try to rinse the salt down with orange lemonade. In a desperate attempt to get rid of the burn I grabbed the only drink on the table, which was my daughter's and it just made it far worse.
