That which does not kill you

Will probably not kill you in the future. My Cosi Margherita Flatbread Pizza that I had for lunch today had parmesan cheese on it. Parmesan cheese is an aged cheese, and aged cheeses are a "no no" when it comes to MAOIs. I only noticed the sprinkles of parmesan cheese after eating several slices. Whoops. If Cosi were to use REAL Parmesan cheese, it would have been aged for a long time (which means more tyramine?), and cost me about $16 for the pizza, as opposed to $8. However, I'm sure this was American parmesan cheese, which apparently isn't aged for as long. So, anyway, I survived eating the entire pizza. No ill effects whatsoever. I tell you the truth because here I am typing this blog.
