2017 it was fat, salt and sugar. The whiteness of it all. Mashed potato, ice cream, cheese toasties. Oatmeal and bananas with a bit of yoghurt, Avocado, cautiously, after day 6. 2006 it was chilli, ginger, spice and pomegranate all the way.
The only constant over a decade was my chemo aversion to coffee and olives. 18 months after treatment I'm still struggling with that and I've lost my love of cruciferous vegies--to make a classic cauli au gratin and not to be able to eat without thinking something is wrong about the whole dish is deeply irritating. I still eat broccoli because I know it's good for me, but I don't enjoy it. Cabbage has to be raw and it makes me fart. Which may be a good thing. Or not.
