I love homemade pimento cheese. I made a big batch today needed to carry something to my next door neighbor because she is always bringing me something. Every time i eat pimento cheese it makes me sooo thirsty. I can't figure out why. Are there foods u eat that make u thirsty?

Not sure why pimento cheese makes you thirsty, but send me your recipe LOL First of all, chips, cheetos puffs, popcorn make me thirsty, just never thought cheese could make a person thirsty.

I can't figure out how pimiento cheese makes you so thirsty! But well it is not so much of my concern because I know each of has has different way of responding to food we eat so I do understand you. My concern is how do you make your cheese pimiento. How about sharing it to me? We use to make that way back my elementary school days but that was too long ago and can't remember anymore how we were doing it in our Home Economics class. I am now just buying from the shop the ready-made ones but I am sure your recipe is much better so I wish you can share it to me. Now going back to the topic of what foods make me thirsty. I do get thirsty whenever I eat sweets. So I should really drink a lot of water after taking sweets such as chocolates, cakes and fruit jams.

Me either but it does, i know i'm wierd, lol.i'd be glad to tell u how i make it but i don't have a recipe or amounts because i don't measure anything when i make it. been making it all my life because it is one of my faves, i use velveeta or the store brand of velveeta because it's cheaper. This i made yesterday i used half a box of chesse, of course u grate it, i added a pkg. of light cheddar cheese [the one already grated in a bag,2 jars of pimentoes, sugar,black pepper, mayo,& yesterday i added 2 spoons full of a pickle like relish i made. Don't usually add relish but thought it would spice it up a little. it did,

Good morning jill, If u will look back to salonga's response i told her all i did tomake it. I didn't mention to her but sometimes i put cream cheese in it to. It's hard for me to tell anyone how to fix something because i don't use recipes unless i'm fixing something new. Happy sat. to u.

Hello Jo. Some of my medications make me constantly thirsty as it is, but when I eat anything salty, such as cheese, it's even worse. I can remember my mother telling me as a child, that ham and other salty things made all ask for drinks of water more often, and then she explained that is was natural! Cheese is relatively salty, but I don't know about pimentoes. The ones in olives are salty, of course. So is it all cheeses that make you thirsty or just the kind with pimentoes added? Karen xoxo

I get thirsty whenever I eat foods that have a high salt content. This is especially true the following day after I have consumed salty foods. I tend to drink a bit more fluids, mainly water though to rehydrate myself.

I am ALWAYS thirsty - I've been tested steadily since I was 22 because I am ALWAYS thirsty. So far, I'm not diabetic, in fact, I tend to run low rather than high.

Hi Jo! Lucky neighbor of yours!! lol I've never had homemade pimento cheese but sure would like to try it.... it sounds right yummy!! Peanuts make me thirsty. They're so dry but very yummy too so I have to have something to drink when I eat those. The best kind of peanuts is the honey roasted kind. Gosh, gotta stop talking about them for I'm wanting some and there isn't any here in the house!! lol

That would be salt mackerel and I guess you would understand why that would make me thirsty .Last week friday I had that along with green bananas ,yam and dumplins and I drank a glass of water in the spot and during the day I think I must have had about three more glasses of water even though we normally soakd it and boil it before cooking it

Must be the pimento. Dry foods make me thirsty and thick foods like potatoes. I usually don't drink while I eat but some foods just make you thirsty.

Dry and salty or spicy food will make me thirsty. I love food of those flavour and I have to have tons of water with me when eating them lol. Chips generally cause thirst and the funny thing is before you know it you've eaten 2 jars of it lol.

Though I don't really eat spicy food, they definitely make me thirsty. Also, eating greasy food or salty food make me really thirsty and crave for a drink, usually something sweet like soda or juice. Food that are bitter make me thirsty because I just want to get rid of that taste from my mouth and so I crave for something with flavor to replace the bitterness on my tongue.
