Too much fat, apparently
Well, after eating an entire tin of "Callos", a typical spanish food that is mainly meat and fat, LOTS of fat and which, for some reason, is extremely cheap... I'm now feeling extremely dizzy, the same happened yesterday and I wonder if it has to do with eating an insane amount of fat, especially if we take into account that the tin contained a ton of olive oil as a conservant and that I've felt a similar (though weaker) sensation after eating tons of olive oil.

why are you eating tons of olive oil? and again, are you sure it's actually olive oil?As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy and to make plans.

Originally posted by Notsoperfick View PostIf it was in a tin then it's probably better in the bin. Did you check what else was in there? MSG maybe? I can't think of any reason why eating tons of fat should be anything other than good, your bowels might take offence but that settles down quite quickly.

Olive oil is well cheap in Spain. Cheaper than butter.
Although Callos in a tin sounds like it might be a cheap processed version. Isn't Callos meant to be tripe, chorizo and bell pepper stew?Last edited by MightyWindmill; 07-31-2014, 08:21 AM.This is all just opinion. And it will have probably changed by this time tomorrow. Don't quote me on anything.

While olive oil may be cheaper than (imported) butter, generic vegetable oil is very common. Most people I knew when I lived there bought it by the jug. And used it to fry the spam they ate instead of real meat, then saved the grease to use again. Yuk!
The can should have a list of ingredients on it. Stop guessing what's in it.

Dizziness from loading up on fat? Yes make sense, because lots of blood goes to your gut for digestion and less to your brain and muscles…"All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident."

Or maybe you were just dehydrated.
Originally posted by not on the rug View Postdehydration, blood sugar drop, cheap ingredients, reaction to a particular ingredient (like msg or another preservative), etc. could be anything.
do you have the same reaction when eating lots of fat from another source?
