I was almost poisoned to death by nutmeg！

Thought I was just being fancy with my breakfast smoothies, but turns out nutmeg is not the spice to mess around with. I grated half a nut (about 3g) into my drink, and a few hours later, I was hit with stomach pain, anxiety, and dizziness. Seriously, I had no clue nutmeg could be toxic in such small amounts. A quick search freaked me out even more—apparently, 10g can be dangerous. I’m still a bit shaky and honestly, now I’m scared to touch the apple pie filling I made earlier. #FoodSafety #NutmegWarning #KitchenFails #SpiceSmart #LearnedTheHardWay #Food
