After years of being a vegetarian, I ate chicken twice over the weekend. And... they definitely tasted like chicken and I didn't like it.

Did other people of the veggie persuasion lose their taste for meat or was it just that maybe the dishes?

I haven't eaten meat in over 25 years, and part of the reason is I dislike the texture of most meat. I don't mind the flavor of meat or meat substitutes, so I just stick with substitutes or, mostly, don't bother even with fake meat.

I stopped eating sugar for half a year. After I started again all sweets tasted too sugary and not as good as I remembered.

Yeahh. I went off sugary foods for 4/5 months and when I restarted, things definitely tasted too sweet. I think it might just be that processed foods just have a lot of unnecessary sugar added that people don't realise until they go without.

Pretty similar, except I really had just cut back on buying processed sweets (aka chips ahoy, whatever cookies you get from the store, etc.) And eventually, the moment I have one of these, it just...tasked fake and too much.

I went mostly vegetarian (occasionally fish, but not even that for about 10 years) about 30 years ago and for about the last 15 years I can't stand the smell of meat. It smells exactly the same as a dirty cat box. No way would I want to put that in my mouth.

I ate steak at a relative's house when it was rude not to after a few years of not eating red meat and I did not like it. The texture was the most off-putting part.

Meat does not taste like food to me. I can taste and smell the rotting flesh aspects of it. It's disgusting.

That’s very concerning, since no part of cooked meat should be rotting when it’s served as food. Your caretakers may be abusing you.

Yeah like, I get being overly dramatic about this to get your point across (considering this "rotting flesh" stuff is usually also a popular tactic by vegans to try and make omnivores disgusted with meat) but if you actually think you can taste or smell the meat rotting, it either actually has gone bad or you have never in your live smelled rotting meat.

You realise the cooking process is literally the accelerated process of rotting right?

SA pressed enter too soon

As in heat has begun breaking down the fibres and cells etc. That is the beginning of the rotting process, just heat induced instead of bacteria or fungi induced. The notes are the same of the meat itself, just with no bacterial or fungal component. This is all fairly logical really.

Regardless, meat does not taste like food to me and it never has. It tastes revolting.

Anon... what you're describing is an entirely different chemical phenomenon known as the Maillard reaction, which is what every single food type goes through when it's cooked, the literal process of cooking that is. It's ok if you find meat displeasing and not your thing at all, but it truly is a different thing.

lol right? If you don't like something, don't eat it. No need to dramatically justify reasons not to.

So if you eat cooked veggies you actually think you're also eating rotten veggies? That's... an interesting thought, even though it's a majorly incorrect one.
