Fine line between diarrhea and "normal" BMs

After reading another post, I realized that there is a very fine line between what works well on your new tummy vs what makes you the king/queen of the throne for awhile.

Shrimp scampi - I cooked homemade scampi the other night and it was great. Some butter, herbs and shrimp. The liquid was minimal and what I did cook thickened up nicely, leaving less volume.

Welp, I was trying to take the easy way out and bought boxed shrimp scampi. It was amazingly flavored but there was a LOT of extra liquid. And...um.... I consumed all the shrimp AND liquid. Yep, I scooped up a spoonful of buttery liquid with each shrimp. The ratio of shrimp to buttery liquid was probably 1:1 at that point. Yikes! The homemade stuff (less butter) settled perfectly. I'm still paying for the boxed stuff tonight. I will still get the boxed stuff for flavor but avoid all the liquid.

So try some shrimp! Grab a bottle of marinade, enjoy a lil home cooking, and don't drink the leftover buttery broth.

I bet if you looked on the package you would find it thickened with some flour or starch of some sort. The carbs from theses products always makes me have loose stool.
