Because some of us get heart palpitations when we drink too much caffeine. That said, I prefer Pepsi. :)

I don't have reflux, but I do have esophageal spasms. I got that same list of "do not eat" foods and threw it away. I'm a damn food writer - I don't have time for boiled chicken breast and potatoes.

I am allergic to apple skin as well, along with peaches, plums, cherries, other stone fruits. The stone fruit allergy is related to an oak pollen allergy, but I have no idea why apple skin makes me itchy.
