In this case, it would be "My 'ilk' and I can put whatever ..."
Courtesy dictates that you put yourself second in that clause.
Grammar dictates that you think of the sentence without the other party when deciding whether to use "and I" or "and me."
For example:
Fanny and I chatted with lb13 last night.
NOT "Fanny and me chatted with lb13 last night."
lb13 flirted with
Fanny and me.
NOT "lb13 flirted with Fanny and I."
And I've now broken a ghostrule-for-everyone-but-ghost by dragging the 3 of them into this.
Thanks...I knew the regular grammar rules, I just wondered if "ilk" had special grammar rules, it seemed like one of those words that just might...
And those were great examples!! LOL...

What's the food, if you don't mind saying?
look out for my message-mail answer if I can make the message thingie work.
Which I guess since I could be saying this all in the message thingie is that I will answer people who really want to know the food & aren't malicious, & trust them to keep it quiet.

I don't eat "cookies from the mail" as a general rule, but just in case I was tricked into eating some from you, I sure wouldn't want to tell you & your ilk what to be putting in there, would I.
I know I haven't been on the bored in a while, but I am curious, when did sunflower start poisoning people?
Oh. She's just poisoning our minds.

I think ghost gave enough clues in her original message to figure out what the food is. My guess is plantains.

You are the guy who draws pictures of your buds hitting your version of me with baseball bats.
But I don't actually "hang out" with you all.

I have a few food intolerances; these I am told are strictly speaking not allergies, as they don't involve the immune system; they involve my for whatever reason not having the enzymes to digest stuff which builds up & doesn't agree with me, as in "bathroom for hours".
OK, this was not that. This was "throat swells up". Definitely an immune response, from the description. I could breath all the while, but while I didn't feel at all nauseated, could not swallow, & felt like I was on autopilot to "antiswallow". And the food in question, while somewhat exotic to mid-USA, is something they eat lots of in other parts of the world, certainly something I've eaten varieties of before, &, worse, yet, is very closely related to a USA food staple I've been eating all my life, & really like. Well, but not fried, like this relative usually is when served at street fairs & such.
Wow, that sounds like a scary time. Glad you're okay.

I was kind of leaning toward Mighty Mouse and Atom Ant myself.
