Foods you liked but went off

I used to really love olives and would eat them by the kilogram. But for some reason I just suddenly stopped liking them. I could still eat them to be polite if I was given them but now I can take or leave (mostly leave) them.

I am wondering if this has happened to anyone else with any foods?

    I used to love shepherds pie and now I can't do the two textures together (mash and mince).

    @Biblioklept that sort of thing happens to me but not to such extremes, perhaps that’s why I went off olives

    Something else I’ve noticed is if I’m sick I’ll go off whatever food I ate just before I was sick, regardless of whether it was the food that actually made me sick. Not sure if that’s odd or just a normal reaction though, it last happened to me with ice cream but I like ice cream again now.

    I used to like strawberries until i became ill eating them without washing them first, I think it was the sprays they put on them in the field. For years whenever I thought of them i felt a bit sick. Similar with vodka but due to drinking too much of it.

    I used to love Scotch Eggs till I found a dirty fingerprint on one that I bought from a supermarket. Also Chicken and Mushroom Pot Noodles, I was addicted but i find them disgusting nowadays, taste like chemicals.

    I’m going off everything very poor to no appetite really getting me down now. I loved Mac Cheese used to make my own I used 100g of Macaroni pasta then cut it down to 50g now I’m lucky if I can eat half of that. Sweet n Sour chicken with noodles another of my favs but can’t stand it now. Wish I could get some appetite back.

    Anything sweet  refined sugar laden, and FAST FOOD Junk food, and ready meals , even most canned food too, I no longer eat them, because i value my health, you are what you eat,
    Sorry I love all that refined sugar and fast food, I would rather die young with a donut in my mouth...than the health **** my sister tries to feed me. I always say live for the now because could get hit by a car tomorrow.

    Used to love tinned macaroni as a child  but could not eat it now but my Grandson loves it.

    Must be a child thing.

    I used to eat wheat for breakfast every day. Sandwichs 5 days a week. Now I can’t eat them because of bloating

    As a kid I loved Kellogs Frosties and Crunchy Nut Cornflakes were a favourite until i was in my mid 20s but no way could i eat them now. I think sugar levels are much reduced from what they were, too!

    I cannot stand the taste of sweet milk at all now. I couldn't eat cereal with sugar in it already - or added to it.

    A friend would bring packed lunch to school, his sandwich consisted of two slices of bread, crisps and ketchup. He swore that it tasted great, no longer an acquired taste.
