Mutiny by Food In Me

Woke up from deep peaceful sleep
Acid reflux turquoise troubling me
With regret I rethink what'd I eat
Cheesy potato skins culprit me thinks

The food is rebelling behind my breast
Like blue boat sailing in my chest
Gas and vomit won’t let me rest
I must eat better I cranberry confess

Must have been some old potato. The early one are tasty with some butter.

Karen you are right the foods you eat are important. Check out the Food Babe channel she tells you of all the harmful ingredients to look for in your food. Thanks for sharing...

Hello Karen, I understand this feeling as I struggle with this as well, I find fennel tea helps me. Hope it gets better soon. Have a great day.
