I've recently developed a mild intolerance to Carageenan, and it's making me acutely aware of just how amazing algea is.

It's in everything and can do anything, truly an amazing organism.

But I wish it wasn't so great at everything, because I want to brush my teeth without randomly throwing up 2 hours later because I'm allergic to toothpaste.

That's a really healthy attitude

Everyone is actually mildly intolerant to carageenan. Why it's used as a food additive is beyond me.

Edit: My wife switched us to Colgate and hasn't had problems since.
