I've got a pretty severe sensitivity to -- of all things -- sugar. (I know, "sugar" isn't very precise, but I'm pretty sure it's either glucose, fructose, or sucrose.) I virtually never eat anything with added sugar or anything with any significant amount of natural sugar. And I've eaten that way for like 20 years now. I'm practically blind to half the produce department (any "sweet" fruits like apples, pears, cherries, grapes, oranges, etc) at the grocery store, let alone the candy isle.

Meat clearly isn't gonna be a unique answer here, but it does have a weird effect on what it feels like to travel to different countries when your diet doesn't revolve around animals.

Where other people see tons of street food and opportunities for interacting with a culture, some places mostly just feel empty.

Not meaning it in a judging way, but there are tons of places where I don't really feel welcome.

Also how is your butthole doing, bro?

My country would be one of those places unfortunately. It's extremely animal protein centric. And although I'm not a vegetarian myself, I really wish we had more options around here.
