I ate one bite of a burger. It tasted amazing. Then I put it down and said, “I can’t eat this and I don’t know why.”
Everyone else ate. After dinner it was discovered there was mold in the buns. A few hours later, everyone else was barfing. No one who was there will eat something if I can’t eat it.
Over Xmas, I ate a bite of fudge. I threw up immediately after- just a tiny bit, because it wasn’t much food. Someone who wasn’t there for the burger incident wouldn’t listen to me, and ate an entire square of the fudge.
I had to go downstairs because he spent the night hurling, and I knew I wasn’t a very sympathetic figure. He kept saying, “Throw it all away! I should never have eaten it! Whyyyy!”
I’ve been called “picky” and I say to them, the loss of not eating a thing because it gives me bad vibes is absolutely worth it every time it doesn’t make someone sick, so I can avoid the one time it does.
Same here, iron stomach when it comes to questionable food. I have never had food poisoning, and I generally double most “how long will this last?” advice.
Cooked Beans? 2 weeks in the fridge is fine! are they slimey? Well is it good slime or bad slime because maybe the natto I was storing next to it inoculated it. Oh it’s disgustingly sour? Curry powder and a long hot cook in the microwave can fix that!
My food aversion seems to be so random. I fucking love bananas, I eat bananas every day, then one day, I’ll be halfway through a perfectly good banana and my body will just go “nope” and the texture, taste and smell of the banana makes me dry heave. I won’t even be able to look at the banana, and it will last a few days. The worst part being that I’m still craving the idea of eating a banana!!!
Lemme tell ya.

I must have the opposite of what you have, unless it’s gone very off I have eaten a bit too much bad food but never gotten sick from it.
Moldy bread, fruits in a container with a rotting fruit or two, bad yogurt. Yet my stomach held strong and made nary a sound

Damn, actual spider sense. Did you have any food tasters in your lineage?
Not that I know of but I have no idea if I’d be any good at sensing actual poison versus like… mold. Or whatever was wrong with the fudge.
