I'm slowly not liking meat anymore??!
Answers: ok so when i was maybe idk 9 or ten years old, i'd almost eat any kind of meat. (sausage, salami, meatballs, hamburgers, brats, etc) and fyi, i dont eat any of the meats i listed above anymore, and i dont know why. cutlets used to be one of my favorite foods, and now i'll barely touch it at times. the only meat i eat is taco meat (in that form only! ahh), chicken, turkey, and on occasion pork. i used to eat so much more, and now i barely eat any of it because everytime i eat the meats i used to like but dont like anymore, i would think about putting an animal in my mouth and start gagging. my parents say i'm weird with eating meat and that its mental to like so many meats and all of a sudden hate them. i mean i dont want to become a vegetarian, but i've kind of had enough of how picky i am with meat. can i fix that somehow? it there something wrong with me?
I relate. When I was kid, my favorite food was steak. I absolutely loved it! When I was about 12 or 13, I stopped eating meats for a while, and when I came back to them, steak was definitely not appetizing... and still isn't. I don't imagine that I'm eating a cow or anything like that, but the texture of the meat.... cutting it/chewing it.. it's just gross to me. It's not all meats that I'm turned off by. I still eat some, but mostly just white meat. Turkey is my staple food.
I don't think there's anything wrong with feeling that way about meet. Food is food... you like it or you don't like it. Don't force yourself to eat something that you're not going to enjoy when other alternatives are available that are just as good for you.
But if you really want to enjoy the meats again... My advice is just to ease yourself back into eating them. Maybe you just need to get used to them again.
Im the same way. When I lived at home I had to have a small portion because my parents made me. When I move dout on my own I rarely ate meat and if I did it was usually chicken. Now that Im married I make different meats because my husband loves meat, but still am picky. I oculd go forever without it.
if you dont like it dont eat it, replace it with other forms of protein. if you change ur mind and want to eat meat again then go ahead and do it
I'm not sure how this is a problem. Everyone has taste preferences and dislikes, and they can evolve over a lifetime. It seems yours is meat. That's ok. If you don't like it, then don't eat it. Easy. Also, take some time to research vegetarianism. You might find that it is a lifestyle that makes sense to you.
