I got to thinking about how, Maddog woke me up at 2 AM (yes you read that correctly) to help him finish a bowl of canned spaghetti (ULLCH) and I had already had a bowl of taco salad that had a very bold taste to it, more than I could stand, actually, despite being quite flavorful, and when I decided to just sneak it into the trash and go back to bed, I began thinking; my tolerance for foods I used to love is now gone.
What is causing this to happen is a mystery to me because I can't tell what's causing it. Unless it's a mental block of some sort. My aunt Dorothy used to force me to eat certain foods that she cooked, and she was a TERRIBLE cook, I have no idea how my uncle and everyone else in our family was able to finish a single plate she made, not only that but to go back for seconds, mind you, in some cases, when over on my end of the table, I'm struggling to get a sloppy, soggy slab of very-poorly-prepared broccoli off my fork, only for Dorothy to jab it back on to my fork and practically shackle me to the table until it's gone.
If my food-based PTSD is what's causing the block to happen, I sure wish I knew how to remove the block, because it's getting in the way of lots of food tolerances I used to have that are now gone. I used to have a wide palate of tolerance, now I don't. It seems like ONLY stuff that's made in an air fryer or stove is ALL I can stand eating, and that worries me because I don't want to stick to just that.
