I feel like I've been introduced to a whole new level of taste since eating clean. I didn't really notice it until this weekend though. Not only have I been eating clean, but I've also been pretty committed to buying Farmer's Market fresh and organic produce. This has been my way for almost three months now. But this weekend the kid went to the grocery store and bought some food, including apples. I was hungry, and an apple's and apple, right?
W.R.O.N.G.
One bite into that grocery store, non-organic apple and I wanted to spit it out. It tasted almost plastic, fake. I couldn't believe that a poor apple could really be so tasteless. But I was hungry, so I ate that plastic, fake tasting apple. But half-way through it, my stomach turned into a knotted, cramped mess. I was so sick! I mentioned something to the kid tonight at dinner about it and she looked at me and admitted that she had gotten a stomach ache from eating the apples too!
It just goes to show you how desensitized our bodies become to the crap, the wax, or the sprays or whatever. But after you rid your body of all that junk, it doesn't want it back, not in the teeniest tiniest bit.
don't you know it! all that fake crap...ugh! i no longer crave any of it and on the off chance that i want to 'treat' myself, thinking that it's going to be 'as good as i remember it'...think again! the last time i had grease was december 17th...whataburger...sick for 3 whole days!!!
ReplyDeleteWent to a catered crop last night... had two MINI chimis and thought I needed to throw up all night. NOTHING tasted good, but I kept trying - the little brownies, the tiny pecan pie things (thought - hey protein). But ick ick ick. And it's not the hostess' fault - I just can't eat like that any more! Every time I do, I am SORRY.
