Dr!. Bob's site has a fairly up to date list detailing the categories of food to avoid:

A lot of the lists you find online are rather out of date!.
The basic categories are alcohol and cheese, any non-fresh fish or meat, and any dairy that's not fresh purchased not covered by the above category - basically you shouldn't risk milk on the expiration date!.
Also, any OTC medication unless you're certain it's alright(ie you've asked your doctor), any herbal/dietary supplements should be avoided like the plague!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
