A close relative sent me food as a Christmas gift. This was the fourth time in a row they sent me gourmet food items as a gift. I complained to them and of course we ended up having a big fight. I was really displeased because I am vegetarian and they sent me bacon salad dressing. This is a close family member. I was really disappointed.

I was going to send the stuff back to them and even boxed it up then I realized it would be rude.

I ate some of the chocolates and some of the horrible gourmet popcorn. After eating healthy for days with salads and fresh fruit.

I hate, hate, hate processed "gourmet" food items. This whole thing ruined my holiday.

Now I have all this chocolate candy around. I guess I will stash it in the back of the freezer.

As for the bacon dressing...it looks so gross. I should throw it away. It's not something I would give to anyone.

There's also some kind of pumpkin butter spread which I will never use. I don't even eat toast.

Who knew it would be so hard to steer clear of crap food at the holiday?

Trying to get back on track.
