What are some of the things you haven't eaten in so long they basically don't even register as edible any more? (lemmy.world)

I've got a pretty severe sensitivity to -- of all things -- sugar. (I know, "sugar" isn't very precise, but I'm pretty sure it's either glucose, fructose, or sucrose.) I virtually never eat anything with added sugar or anything with any significant amount of natural sugar. And I've eaten that way for like 20 years now. I'm practically blind to half the produce department (any "sweet" fruits like apples, pears, cherries, grapes, oranges, etc) at the grocery store, let alone the candy isle.

I was like you for some time (low fodmap) and vegan. Then I eat that stuff again and I had a hard time to digest these food and felt some pain

My wife was vegan for several years and went back to vegetarianism. She was always tolerant of my omnivorous diet, so long as I was mindful of cross-comtamination. I got used to eating her choice of proteins as well, and now I eat nearly as much vegetarian substitutes as I do meat. But holy fuck, does red meat tear me up now with the most painful and absurdly disgusting smelling farts, with a volume and frequency so great that it could blow down a brick townhouse.
