Argh! I felt like eating some crisps today, 100 grams of Laurenz crisps, actually fits into my daily maintenance budget. But oh dear... it didn't taste well at all, and my stomach is feeling stuffed since I ate them. I did get really hungry an hour before dinner again, but the stuffed feeling was, and actually is still there. I guess the solution is: never again.

    I used to like gummy candies. Now all I seem to want is chocolate.

    I also used to like apples, but I ate too many of them, and now I hate them...

    I used to really like Eggos as a kid but they always seem to come out soggy or burnt to a crisp. Making good pancakes or waffles is easy enough.

    Sharp cheese (except for parmesan). I used to like cheese and now I could take it or leave it. Same with chocolate. It's okay, but I don't go out of my way to have it like I used to. Oh, almost forget... the gluten-free equivalent of almost anything. I have celiac disease so have to have the gf stuff. After eating gf for so many years, the novelty of being able to eat the replacement stuff wore off and I just admitted that I didn't really like it all that much. There's better food to eat.

    Potatoes. And them mum grew a gazillion and we had potato for every meal for months... I can't stand them now (unless they're in beef massaman or a good Cornish pasty).

    There's a lot of candy that no longer tastes good to me. I used to get bags of fruity candy and now I'm always disappointed when I snag a piece of the kids candy and it's just gross. To think of the calories I used to pack away in highly processed items...

    Same with a lot of restaurant food. All I taste now is way too much salt or way too much sugar. I'm sure that would be different in finer dining. (I hope)

    LOVE this, although I call it Muslim Beef Curry. Do you have a good recipe that you could share, please?

    Yup, candy here. As a kid I remember buying a piece of candy after school...from those big 5c per piece jars. But then when I was about 11 or 12, I didnt like them anymore. Then when I was 16 I went to Disneyland, and broke my tooth on a one of those sugar candies on a stick, and didnt have another piece again until a few years ago (so about 20 years no candy)

    I drive my daughter crazy with that now, cause I do the same thing..Ill snag a piece of her halloween candy and am all, Ooh I used to love these! And shed be like, youre wasting candy Ma! Youre not going to like it Ma! and I tell her "you dont know me!" eat it anyway, spit it out...rinse, repeat next Halloween. LmFao!

    It will be half the size it was when you were a kid. Guaranteed.

    Cant really do the evangelical born again now im converted nonsense.

    Lots of the food I used to enjoy and trough out on tasted nice then like chocolate and crisps and you know what? they still taste nice now.

    Would I eat more of them if they werent crammed full of calories? Absolutely.
    I have gone from them being a staple though and eat less of them now. Calories are better spent elsewhere now they are limited and I need my diet to deliver in certain areas.

    I used to love Harbio gummy sweets, like the 'friendship rings' etc., yet now I find they all taste the same and the taste only lasts a moment anyway. Doesn't matter what colour one you choose, they all have the same (lack of) taste, and they feel slimy in the mouth. Don't know what I ever saw in them! I go for Maoam chewy candy now, a much nicer texture and lovely distinct flavours. Mmmm dammit, now I want candy......

    milk shakes and soda, now milk shakes just make me sick and I don't like how soda makes me feel. Which is a bummer when it comes to milk shakes though, there's a Blue Moon beer milk shake at Red Robin (at least I hope they still have it), and I'd love to try it, but I might wuss out and just get the beer.

    I'll eat anything, but I bought these breakfast sausages that I used to eat a LOT and can't really stand now. They must be months old in my freezer now. In general I used to be a really cool breakfast cook, now I don't like any of the stuff that much. When I visit family they sometimes make requests and I can't bring myself to cook the usual at all. Not that it'd even taste good if I did

    I loved Wasabi Almonds for a while, until I bought a whole 10 dollar bag of them and lost the taste for it...

    All the foods I once liked I still like... I now eat more foods that I used to dislike because now I like them.
