Anything that would be considered 'fatty' normally.

Yes.  The reasoning behind not eating fatty food with Atripla is that the side effects (feeling drunk, strange dreams) will be exacerbated greatly.  This is due to the Sustiva in it.

The usual suspects - pizza, nuts, ice cream, fast food.  Everything good to eat - LOL.  Probably takes some trial and error for you to see what you can and cannot have with Sustiva.  For me, the only things that really knock me for a loop are late night ice cream, nuts and chinese food.  Everything else is no big deal.

One thing you can give and still keep...is your word.

One thing you can't recycle is wasted time.

I'm sure you know by now, that's normal.
