What, no sweet carrots?
Nope
Have your kids heard the good news of our lord and savior, Brussels sprouts?
There are just a ton of foods that input in my mouth that immediately make me feel like I'm going to vomit. I really hate it.
Did you get sick a lot as a kid? Like long term, not just related to food?
I don't think so, no. Why?
I think they're asking because you can develop taste aversion by eating something and getting sick (even if the sickness is completely unrelated).
My sister got H1N1 when it was proliferating, and she had a box of nilla wafers before the symptoms started hitting hard. Now she inexplicably can't eat a single nilla wafer.
Ohhh. No, I think it's because my parents didn't make me try many foods when I was young and then once they began it was the big ordeal of never letting me leave the table until I tried some. Many times I would wait them out because things just disgusted me that much.
I'd still describe myself as a pretty "picky eater" and I loathe trying anything new in public, but I've gotten a lot better and I have pickier friends too now. (It helps not being the most picky lol.)

If you are a super taster, broccoli taste like grass smells. At least for me and my daughter. Its so bitter that I threw up one time when I was a kid being forced to eat it. So lets accept that to someone with a lesser/different sense of taste/smell its okay. To those of us who can smell when someone has been in their house five hours after they left it taste completely different. So no thanks I don't want to eat grass.
Fellow super taster though it's more like a curse. It also extends to wine, beer, coffee, onions, and numerous other things because my sense of bitter is too strong.

How do you find out if you are a supertaster? I'm curious because growing up I couldn't stomach any vegetable that was bitter. Broccoli, brussel sprouts, celery, etc. were enough to make me gag just from the flavor. Nowadays, I can cope with the bitterness by focusing on other flavors and textures but I've definitely been in positions where I have a single bite of celery and then can't muster up the courage to eat for a solid hour.
I don't think I've ever been diagnosed other than the fact that I can smell things others can't. I can smell when people are sick. Cancer has a smell. I sometimes I encounter people and don't know what the smell is but know they are sick. I can smell cockroaches in a house. Even if you can't see them I can smell them in the walls. All in all I would choose to have just a regular sense of smell since many perfumes and those damned plug in air freshener just smell like noxious chemicals to me. Its just like walking in a room and someone is screaming. Only I'm the only one there that can hear it. Not fun.
