Do you ever "cheat" and it's just not good anymore?

Just wondering if it's just me.....

It seems like most of the time when I cave in and have a trigger I've been craving, I take one bite and I'm just not satisfied. It just doesn't taste the same. So, I end up figuring if it ain't any good, I'm not risking an attack over it.

Of course I do have my cave-ins that are better than memory! LOL For example, we had a belated reception/labor day cookout this past weekend, and a friend made us a wedding cake. I've been pigging out like a big fat cow on leftovers of that all week! It's to die for, but no probs with it.....(yet) Thank gawd it's almost gone, cuz I don't know how much more my hips can withstand of it though.....

Anyway, I had teriyaki (marinated beef threaded on skewers cooked on a charcoal grill), which used to be a cookout staple when I was growing up, and I hadn't had it in YEARS. I couldn't wait for this past weekend to have some. I made sure I ate safe stuff first and saved the bad stuff for last. But I tried it and it was gross. (I ended up spitting some out in a napkin it tasted so bad to me. ) The same has happened to me with fries I've sampled and other no-nos.

Am I a freak or what?

I tried a sip of my daughter's chocolate milk. I haven't had it in YEARS. And you know what? I much prefer my Silk Chocolate Soy Milk.
Same thing with feta - I prefer the soy version.
Same thing with soy parmesan.

I've mentioned this before elsewhere, I'm sure, but I somewhat-recently stole a nibble of ice cream, and it tasted like frozen lard. YUCK. I've had similar things happen with full-fat cookies and brownies; they just taste like flavored grease, and the texture is so totally repulsive.

Steak, unfortunately, I still have a taste for. But pork tastes like dirt. There's another YUCK.

So no, you're not a freak at all!

I had some cheesecake for dessert Saturday and it was ho hum. I would have preferred something else.

I guess we are better off in the long run, eh?

Casey, I love your description "they just taste like flavored grease." That is EXACTLY what it's like. Weird.

Well, glad I'm not alone.

Dairy is still my weak spot... no problems giving up meat and insoluble fibers, but I crave all dairy. Sometimes it is all I can think about. Sort of sad, but I'm guessing that my body is trying to tell me that it isn't getting enough calcium or something!
