In turn, she and her husband ended up bringing some plant-based milk, juices, veggies, cooked turkey breast, and some snacks to her in-laws. Then, she felt good about her stay and was not too worried about what she would eat.
Well, come Christmas day, she was pretty busy with her sisters-in-law until dinner. So, once it was time to eat, she became quite hungry and did a little survey of what she could have.
Apparently, her mother-in-law had made turkey– which would have normally been a safe food for her.
However, her mother-in-law had also wrapped it in bacon, which would have triggered her allergic reaction.
She did not blame her mother-in-law for that, either, since it was only the second time she celebrated Christmas with her in-laws. So, she didn’t expect them to be well-versed in everything she could and could not eat.
Plus, she figured that she would just be able to eat the precooked turkey breast and veggies she brought to her in-law’s house for this exact reason.
After going to heat it up, though, she discovered that her husband had actually stolen her special food.
“Apparently, my husband got really hungry and made sandwiches with it,” she revealed.
Even though many people would probably be annoyed by that, too, she was actually not angry and just went with the flow.
She made it work with what was available and ended up eating some other veggies at the table– including peas, carrots, parsnips, and more.
She did have to avoid the roasted potatoes since they were made with animal fat, as well as the mashed potatoes since they were made using milk and butter. But she really did not mind.
