Hi, Corey:

"All the world is birthday cake, so take a piece..but not too much" George Harrison

CHEAT and there is probably a good chance You will flare, but so what? You know what to do to take it down and having a cheat once in a while only supports Your conviction and increases Your resolve.

Just don't get some bad AS complication You have never had before; You are not unfamiliar with the symptoms of inflammation and the world will not end if You cheat and You will not go all the way back to square one but it is a setback that You will have to deal with, one way or another.

I would not make it a habit, unless I have no more reaction to starches (which by now after 14 years I have nearly achieved enough gut healing for diet to be "normal" but always vigilant).

EDIT: OICU812...good luck and I hope You don't flare so easily...

bon appetit,
John
