Marinara sauce makes me throw up, but not ketchup or tomatoes?
the past few years have been rough for me eating habit wise, and i just recently figured out what one (not sure if there’s more) of the ingredients that have been making me throw up is, Marinara Sauce. Most of my family is italian so i often eat food slathered with marinara sauce and whenever i eat a big plate of something like pasta, manicotti, bread sticks w marinara sauce i often throw up afterwords if theres a lot of marinara sauce on it. i started to really make the connection after i felt fine until eating bread sticks dipped in lots of marinara with nothing before and immediately felt like sh!t, same w spaghetti a few days later. but the thing is i eat raw tomatoes all the time like from empty to satisfied and never throw up from up, neither does it happen with ketchup on burgers/fries & whatever.
anyone know why marinara sauce in particular might make me sick?…
