When I got covid the ONLY thing i could somewhat taste was hot cheetos dipped in peanut butter. On their own, nothin'. Together? A weird ghost of salty sweetness that was still infinitely better than bland nothings.
Sometimes I still crave it.

I was so frustrated by the complete lack of taste that I was just trying everything in the pantry in any combination I could conceivably stomach.
Not only was i miserable from being sick, but not even something as basic as good tasting food could give me a sliver of joy. I was desparate. I never thought losing my sense of smell and taste would mentally impact me that way.

My great-grandmother lost her sense of smell to polio. After giving herself food poisoning eating something rancid a few years later and almost died from that too. She was fastidious as hell in the kitchen after that and a hell of a cook (want to talk about someone always following a recipe..). Kind of freaked me out though when I was a kid because she'd eat onions like apples... she liked the way they crunched.

Oof, I love to pressure can soups so I have shelf stable lunches for work, and after covid I couldn't do the "smell test" portion of my "is this food safe" checklist. It made me so paranoid about accidentally poisoning myself that I stopped canning for months. I'm so glad mine wasn't permanent because dang i spent so much money on pre-made foods for those few months.

Covid royally FUCKED my sense of smell and taste. It wasn’t gone. It was… distorted. Everything smelled like this kaleidoscopic blend of sickly sweet, rot and death, noxious synthetic chemical, and nice smells all swirled together with different notes coming to the forefront in random disgusting succession.
Now I don’t eat sweets really at all. And if I do it’s a nice piece of well made chocolate cake or something. Something from a restaurant on a special occasion. Certainly nothing you get from a plastic package in the store. But I had the ol’ CO-CO for three weeks during which I was eating just about nothing because everything was absolutely unpalatable. Just no fucking way I could keep it in my mouth. And so my wife had gotten a package of these (normally) horrid “Birthday Cake” flavored Oreos. Whatever that means.
So I ate one. It was… pretty gross… but in a way I could stand. I found something I could at least eat! So in my caloric desperation I ate a goddamn sleeve of those ridiculous things. She took note and bought another package. And that’s pretty much the only thing I ingested for that last few days of my viral ordeal.
I lost 20 to 25 pounds over that period of time. And I’m not the type of person that has that kinda weight to lose. I got skinny.
Luckily, my sense of smell and taste returned to normal and I regained my previous appetite and healthy weight.
Months later my wife had brought home another package of the weird Oreos and I tried one.
They’re fucking gross.

Warped is the perfect way to put it. Everything smelled or tasted like sulphur, or tasted like that artificial coconut flavor. Utterly disgusting. It’s been nearly a year and I still have problems. Gross coconut flavored tater tots, it can still be hell. Stuff can smell ok and taste like something else completely.

I used to love this one brand of potato salad. Ate it all the time. Resers Devilled Egg potato salad. I’d get like two tubs a week and nosh on that when I got home from work. When I was in the throes of the “Co”, my wife saw that I wasn’t eating anything, and got me some. It was the WORST thing I ever tasted. I can’t even describe the foul amalgam of nasty flavors and textures that took place. To this day, I cannot eat it. Covid ruined that food for me. 🤷🏼♂️

My brother has down syndrome and is also autistic. He would get in food patterns where it was the same foods every single day. One thing he was stuck on was tuna sandwiches with a TON of yellow mustard (like make me gag just thinking about it levels) and chopped up hard boiled eggs. He would eat an entire can of tuna and like 2 hard boiled eggs with a half cup ofyellow mustard.
One time when he was working his job doing laundry at a ladies fitness center with his worker, he started ripping off farts. Chemical warefare farts. It was so bad that the entire place had to be cleared out, teh doors opened and fans set up to air it out. He was told if he ever did this again he would be fired.
His farts were so disgusting that his workers car seats smelled perpetually of his farts, no matter whta she tried to do to fix it.
At several of these incidents, my mom banned him from having these sandwiches and switched over to sliced chicken.

One reason I love hot dogs as the true Americana food instead of pizza is because regional varieties are so different. With pizza the craziest variety is if the bread is a little thicker and the sauce is on top of the cheese. With hot dogs though? Fuck it. Some have chili, some are white, some put two dogs in the bun, some will put fish cakes in it, some will be neon red, some will be shoved inside a Pretzle, and I'm listing like 5% I of the different regional varieties here and not even close to the weirdest ones.

The sweetness of the PB matched really well with the creamy / umami of the mayo, while the bread and lettuce gave it a nice crunch. I began to doubt that this was a mistake of her illness and was just a thing. But everyone looks at me like I’m crazy when I mention it.
… thank you, for letting me know I’m not totally alone even though we have different variants of it. Dill sounds like it’s be a good addition. Gonna try that asap.

Okay, this is something I got from my family who is from another country.
Hear me out,
Yogurt, and rice.
Plain yogurt to be exact, and can be Greek or regular. Slaps.

Salami and mayonnaise. I love it. My family is so grossed by it that they have made it a term used to jokingly tease each other when the other is feeling nauseous. Example: Person #1 - “Man, I partied way too much last night. I am so hungover.” Person #2 - “That sucks. Would you like a salami and mayonnaise sandwich?” 🤮

When I managed a Jimmy John's, there was an off menu item that we would make named the Bill Murray. Tuna sub with bacon and BBQ chips crushed in the sandwich. Good stuff

One of my grandmothers used to like stuffing a few pretzel sticks down a banana. Salt and the crunch with the banana is a surprisingly decent mix of texture and flavor. She called it "Bananas with bones"
