it's that time of the night where I want to have a nice fancy burger. maybe it's just like. oogh need carbs need meat need the happy chemicals from food that doesn't make me want to off myself or that it's been like ten hours since I last ate

#I feel like there's about five different things preventing me from truly feeling good about eating #one of them's health related one's mental illness related the main one as I often bemoan #I live with a grandmother who thinks that hashbrowns/chicken soup/peas/cornflakes as a casserole sounds good #and will get incredibly rude and nasty if you dare not want her cooking #that is either Bad to mediocre served at the wrong time (think six o'clock when we don't get home til eight) or when neither of us #are hungry due to medication side effects or just because the food is Evil #I know I can talk my cooking is fairly bad and possibly dangerous #but. the horror that is her sweet and sour sauce recipes. her curry. her casseroles.#the meal that was grey unidentifiable mince served with microwaved potato and gravy that genuinely looked #like the hospital food we still make fun of four years later because it looked like actual slimy shits.#and then we discovered that I dodged a massive bullet by immediately spitting it out since it was a week expired when it was cooked #and the freezer had done it no favours. yeah the 'mysterious' stomach upset that I avoided was Food Poisoning.#yeah like when we can't even guarantee ingredients won't be used in those sorts of horrors (and genuinely they are horrors)#it's fairly difficult to ensure that you're gonna eat. not only well in the technical sense but things you like and enjoy
