I’ve spent my entire life as a picky eater. I don’t know how it started or when it began.
I think some of the blame I would like to put on my parents for not making me eat lettuce, and for encouraging me to only eat mac and cheese as a child. But as a 23 year old, I should probably take some blame too. I mean, I should have expanded my palette a long time ago.
To give you some background, I don’t like many vegetables and pretty much no fruit at all. It’s mostly a texture thing with those. I don’t like a lot of oriental or really any ethnic cuisine. I didn’t like BBQ until I was 17, this I am very disappointed in myself for. When I go out, I like to stick with the most boring entree there is, usually something like a turkey burger or some chicken fingers.
So this is a big turning point in my life. I’m going to quit being so god damn picky and expand my love for food. I want to try new things and get out of this picky-eater-rut I’ve been in for 23 years.
I currently live in Louisville, pretty close to Bardstown Rd. So I really have no excuse why I can’t break this stigma of my delicate taste buds.
So this is an exploration of self and stomach, to redefine Hanna.
Louisville has so many great places to eat. Go with friends, have them all order something different and just eat off their plate. This way you don’t have to commit and is a great way to try foods and get full. I find liquids usually have more taste. LOL, goodluck on your food journey.
I’m excited. I’ve already been to a couple of great places, and have been blown away. We will have to go out sometime and try out a place together!
