One day i will make my hot take post about how picky eaters deserve so much better but my brain is not there yet
#toy txt post#attempted summary: even in the posts j see on this site it feels like so many ppl need there to be excuses to be 'picky' about food#and i for one am tired of it. i think it should be socially acceptable to just not like food. it just doesn't agree with your tastebuds.#you have no desire to eat it. and its not rude and its not anyone's fault and its not a fucking moral failure or judgement and#generally is not that hard to accommodate if ur respectful and communicate honestly#i think the only reason you need to be socially ~excused~ from eating food you dont like without being seen are rude for it#is that you dont like it. it doesnt taste good to u. i think a world where that was acceptable would be better for everyone and also#better for ppl with allergies and food sensitivities too.#idk i just hate that it seems like you need these big dramatic reasons not to eat smth. often things that are like. personal medical details#that you may not want to share with every random person involved with your food.#like it feels like i see a lot on here thats like. respect ppl w sensory issues to food! a lot of neurodiverse folx have strong issues with#like texture and itll will make you literally feel like youre gonna die! and like yea respect ppl w sensory issues but why dont we take it a#step further and normalize just not liking food? not being passive aggressive about some1 always getting the same food or not trying things?#normalize not liking food without it being seen as some kind of personal slight or rudeness or smth bc what your tastebuds said no?#like you cant fucking control your tastebuds. youre probably not actively choosing to hurt grandma's feelings by being grossed out#by her shepard's pie bc you hate mashed potatoes and you really hate mashed potatoes mixed with all your other food no matter who makes them#and thats not your fault and its not grandma's fault thats just your tastebuds being different#and im not saying its okay to idk be rude to someone and rag on their homecooked meal they made you like youre gordon ramsay like#i just think it should be more acceptable to say 'sorry i just dont like potatoes very much so i wont be eating them' without it being seen#as a personal attack on the cook and everyone on the earth who loves mashed potatoes.#okay i should go. im just rambling now and its 3pm and i really need to clean my room. going to attempt to make it not smell like cat piss#for 10 whole minutes. would be nice. anyway i think i yelled about this on discord like a yr ago and i think it was better worded then#but like. picky eater rights or whatever. be nice to your picky eater siblings for me. stop calling them dinner dictators.#yes this is personal i dont like to go out to eat with my family anymore bc im nothing but a hindrance who dares to want to go to a place#where they actually serve at least one thing i know i will like so that i can actually eat some dinner at dinner. god forbid i want to eat#my food without hating it or not want to waste money on food i either know i wont eat or is very likely i wont eat.#guh okay im going now
