    Has anyone noticed as you’ve gotten older being less tolerant to greasy and salty food? Like I love fish and chips but I slept like shit last night. Same thing happens with excessively salty pizza.

    Back when I was young I could inhale such foods without a second thought.

      I feel like fatty food makes me sluggish and lazy feeling almost immediately.

      Last time I had KFC which was ages ago after not having it for quite awhile made me feel a bit icky.

      There’s so much grease in those things that even I felt it.

      Hate to see what would happen if I tried it now.

        KFC is regrettable. You don’t eat it for ages, then you eat it and remember why you don’t.

      Only milk products, it’s the lactose, it happened after I caught a mild gastro a few years ago . Otherwise I’m fine.

      Very much so. Also less tolerant of excessive sugar too. Will make an exception for anchovies on pizza though. The grease I used to eat I couldn’t now. Still OK with butter and olive oil.

      I was saying this only last week. Even eating out has a lot more salt than I cook with usually, and I pay for it with the dry horrors all night into the next day.
