Lasting Food Aversions? Anyone else? (ok or cravings)

I used to love eggs.. i mean I distinctly recall getting up and chopping up bits of ham, mushroom, tomato and knowing just the right mixture of egg, milk and cheese to the buttered pan for the perfectly folded fluffy cheesy yummy omelet.

Now? Pfft.. egg? nah

Its just bland and just blah why would I want to waste time eating it?

Ever since I was pregnant the aversion started and I still can't really get back into eggs. Its just so odd. I REMEMBER liking eggs but its like I was a different person.

I keep trying them scrambled, over easy, sunny side up, hard boiled, in omelets... in a taco, in potato salad. I can eat a few forks full then its just nah, Id rather not. Not a bad taste or gag just nah no thank you. Like you need an aquired taste for eggs?!

Am I the only one?

Feels sooo alien to not like eggs anymore.

Anyone else have an aversion that stuck?


I never had cravings but I guess this could apply for that too.

Oh and ironically... the kiddo LOVES eggs.. like she'll sit down and eat two hard boiled eggs and not blink on any given morning.

THIS! People think I'm crazy that I still have aversions but I can only eat meat when it's cut up small and in something, never alone. Just looking at it makes me sick. This started when I became pregnant with my first son and never went away.

I used to eat a banana every single day at work before I got pregnant. Then I got pregnant and I just could not eat them anymore. And I still have the aversion now. I only buy a couple and I mix it into foods like pancakes/waffles, smoothies, etc... but I cannot eat a whole banana anymore. It's just not appealing to me.

Yogurt! I used to eat it everydayuntil I got pregnant and it made me gag just thinking about it. I try to like it again but haven't been able to eat it in about 2 years.

I don't like meatballs anymore. The have to be covered in cheese and sauce for me to eat it.

I think it stays with us.

I loved loved loved eggs before being pregnant. I could eat them daily. Then I got pg and I could not touch them. That lasted about 3 years even after I had my DD. She is now 4.5 and I can finally sort of enjoy them again...but still not the same as it used to be. So similar to you!

For me my DD Hated eggs, so my aversion was her averison. Only now she may eat a scrambled egg with cheese, after me trying them on her for 3 years. She finally can eat one, and oddly, now, so can I.Chat Icon

I have a huge craving that won't go away, ice tea and ginger ale. I use to only drink water, that was it and hot tea but since I got pregnant and had my DD in May I need to have some sort of sweet drink every night. Even when we go out to eat I ask for sweetened ice tea or ginger ale. I still drink water but it's not the only thing I drink.

nope I got pregnant and I could not look at steak, and forget minute steaks or hamburgers.

DD is going to be 12mo and I still cannot look at minute steaks. I had a burger the other day but it took all my might and alot of toppings to get it down.

and I loved Guacamole while i was prego and DD can eat a whole one and more !

Same here! When I was prego anytime I ate something with sugar this time around I got sick as well. I am happy I cant eat sugar again!

I always loved hummus but couldnt stomach it when I was pregnant. It took two full years to not feel like that but Im back to loving it again. And my DD can eat it by the vat not even as a dip, like with a spoon (which even I think is kinda gross Chat Icon)
