I’ve been a picky eater since I was a child as far as I remember. Except for me, everyone in my family eats just everything. Maybe I’m the peculiar one? Being a picky eater is not like what you guys are thinking! Eating only a delicious and expensive foods or eating only western foods at all the time. When I say I’m picky at food, I mean I “refuse” to eat certain types of food. πIt might sound obnoxious but, my throat just can’t accept them. What can I do about it? It’s not like I can force myself to eat them! I try to eat them too but it’s not working. When I said this, people might think that I’m being choosy or ungrateful for what I’ve got or what my mom has cooked for me but that’s not the case. Since my family already know what exactly I can or can’t eat, so they’re going to act like its normal. When my mom cooked dishes that I don’t eat, she’s going to cook another simple dish just for me. I’m so grateful to my mom for this π or I’ll just cook for myself since I know how to. Enough with the intro, let me show you some of the foods that I don’t eat….
Firstly, as for fish I only eat four types of fish which are mackerel fish, sardine fish, chub mackerel fish [basically any types of fish in mackerel family] and anchovies. For me, they are very delicious but only if they were fried! If they were cooked the way I don’t like it, then I’m not going to eat it. I KNOW, I’M SO PICKY RIGHT??? I can’t eat them if the texture if the fish is too soft. It just an indescribable feeling! TRY BE A PICKY EATER THAN YOU KNOW! [I swear I'm not mad!] It can be so tiring for me too. I do rather not eat anything then eating what I can’t eat. π§
Next, I don’t eat any kind of seafoods.
Yes, you heard it, I don’t eat them. My family and people around me keep on
teasing me for not eating seafoods. They said “you are in such a great loss for
not eating them”. For them, seafoods are so delicious that they lick their
fingers when eating them but not for me as I think that they are not yummy at
all. My mom once cooked fried rice and there’s prawn in it and I ACCIDENTLY eat
them. Just like you guys have thought, I spit it out but of course not in front
of everyone. I know how to be polite too. It just feels so wrong, I can’t
accept them. SORRY NOT SORRY.I don't eat greens too, just who likes them? and I
have a low tolerance of spicy foods. If I want to enlist all of the food that I
don’t eat, it will be endless.π¨
Let’s not keep you waiting for why I
don’t eat them. So, here’s the thing, I’m a person who is very sensitive with
smell. Most of the foods that I don’t eat are because of their smell. It’s not
like they’re stink of anything but their smell makes me feel very dizzy. When I
got dizzy, it's leads me to have a headache then it’s leads me to feel
nauseous. By only smelling the smell of the foods already makes me dizzy, can
you imagine me eating them? Not only I’m sensitive with food’s smell but also
other smell. Such as perfume, detergent and anything with a strong fragrant.
I’m so grateful to people around me for being considerate and understanding
about my condition. Likes my roommate Alis, she would use her perfume outside
of the room. I didn’t ask her to but she’s willingly doing that. I really
appreciate it when she does that. All this time, I can do nothing but endure
it.π§
One
day, I joke to my mom “isn’t it easy to feed me? just fry some chicken nuggets
for me and I’m all good”. Seafoods and fishes could be very expensive at times
.Isn't it advantages for my parent? Sometimes, my mom cooked fried egg or fried
chicken for me and that are beyond enough for me. Just to let you guys know, I
love chicken meat the most. I admit it that I might have a taste bud of a child
haha.π
People
could be very judgmental at times but there’s nothing that I could do. So,
I decided to share this story with you guys. This post might be not so
educational but I'll try to post something interesting and educational in the
future! Thank you for reading.π
