Have you experienced a "pine mouth"?

My wife tried drinking ginger ale,and it helped tremendously.
Makes me wonder what kind of poisons those chinese are putting in our pine nuts
And all other things.
Next to come is radioactive sushi.
It is time to start producing and consuming locally,
Saves so much in fuel consumption and helps the local economy.
Change is coming,
Sooner then you think.

Wow, that is just wild! Sorry you're having this "pine mouth" problem, but thanks for sharing your story with us. S&F. I made Poached Pears With Gorgonzola and Pine Nuts for lunch a couple of days ago. The pine nuts were indeed from China (note on the bag says Product of China). I toasted the pine nuts before adding them to the dish. I don't know if toasting them made a difference in the likelihood of experiencing the pine mouth symptoms, but neither my hubby or I seem to have been affected. There are still some leftovers of the pears dish in the fridge. I'm thinking there's a good chance they are not going to get eaten!

Mental note: never eat anything that comes from China.

Thanks ATS, saved me again!
