Pickle snocone 😩

[mckenzie 66]

So just want to see if anyone had a problem with this but I LOVE pickles! They were my favorite snack before surgery and my NUT said I can’t have a actual pickle yet but a dill pickle snow cone is fine. Problem is it gave me some serious bathroom issues like Went down fine but 20 minutes later I was having “never trust a fart” issues. What the actual heck caused that because I seriously didn’t think that would be a issue and neither did my NUT. 🤦🏻‍♀️ I’m almost 4 weeks post op and on my second stage of soft foods (fish, deli meat, stuff like that). Sorry for the TMI but I’m seriously confused on what the deal was.

Was there sugar in it?

No. I made sure of that when I ordered. They literally take a jar of Pickle Juice and dump it on there.

Maybe you're just not ready for that much acidity yet?

Honestly I didn’t think about that. Thank you! That very well may have been the issue. Hopefully later I can do those because it was the best thing I’ve had since surgery but it made me have some pretty rough issues!

And as a former. home canner often there are hidden sugars but also the pickling process contains an high amount of sodium ( salt) . MAYBE THAT IS WHERE THE SENSATIVITY IS AT?

You're still in the "introduce new foods one at a time and see how it goes" stage. Try again in a few weeks and see if you can handle it. (Maybe bring it home so you have a bathroom handy )

Pickles are a fermented food that can change the microbiota (bacteria) in your gut.

The good news...is that pickles will add to the helpful bacteria population.

The bad news...is that your gut is likely very out of balance ater surgery, and it'll take some time to get everything balanced again.

Don't give up on pickles or Pickle Juice. But next time, when you're feeling brave.... try to pair it with some Fiber. (Pickle bugs eat fiber) If you do, it might help even things out:) Good luck!

Lol thank you! I’ll have to try again when I’m feeling brave and very close to a restroom. 😅
