So apparently not even a throat so sore your doctor swabbed you for strep gets you out of having to eat a food occasionally if you don't want to feel horrible.

I feel your pain -- I was the poster child for step throat as a kid! Had it so many times I don't know why they bothered doing a test swab after a while; so many time I eventually had to have my tonsils & adenoids removed! -- and wish you many easy-to-swallow noms while you fight the good fight!

(While I hope you never have to suffer it again... Do you know the trick to not gagging while being strep tested? I try to pass it on to everybody who's at some risk of strep testing, because it was such a great thing for little!me when some kind doctor told it to me back then! Here is the trick: pant like a dog while the swab's in your mouth. It will keep your gag reflex in check!)
