You probably sounded a happy hedonist 
In our family I am the enthusiastic one and my SO is more like a black box with a poker face (we are pretty much opposites there. I can be VERY excited and happy if my food is good and it often is. I am quite vocal about it too). He just eats and I need to ask if he likes it to get feedback and he is often unsureā¦ He can tell if he likes it or not but more than thisā¦? Itās so odd to me. Once we talked about enjoyment from food, itās hard to put numbers to it but one can tryā¦ And I usually had 9-10/10 food and he said itās more like 5 for him. Poor thing 
. (Today was way lower for me too but I had to eat the leftovers - I didnāt so tomorrow wonāt be a fat fast day either but itās good, I need more food - and itās fine if itās rare. I did have a 9/10 item, my quark quiche. And cream is always nice too but it still wasnāt awesome today, just good.)
You donāt sound like a proper hedonist here. Harm isnāt hedonistic so if I know something is harmful, itās usually enough for me to turn off all desire (thatās why reading the ingredients list was so effective when I occasionally got tempted in the supermarket in the past. now I donāt even need to do that). Not always but usually. Of course I have experience, about 14 years on low-carb, many years on/off keto and some years on/off near carnivoreā¦ I did a lot of conscious training too 
I usually want the right things. It gets surreal when I decide that now I totally can afford some wilder days for reasons - and I just canāt do it because I donāt like or want the food. Keto never did that, I enjoyed my off times but carnivore changed things. Sometimes I even try vegs (beyond my tiny occasional extra), my old HUGE favs. I grab a modest but not tiny amount and I just canāt eat it, itās just not good. Still surreal, even years after I suddenly stopped loving my beloved vegs and started to eat meat every day. I very rarely even try, the desire is never there and I do get curious and nostalgic sometimes. But I have changed.
Salads are easy as I disliked the vast majority of them even as a huge veggie lover vegetarian. Green leaves are a bit like grass to me anyway, usually. Raw vegs were fine but not in a salad just as they were, Alvaro (my SO but I use his name in the carni threads where I am most active and everyone knows everything and their circumstances) still eats them that way. Never as a salad. We donāt complicate things like that. (By the way, in Hungarian, salad and lettuce are the same word. And the two traditional salads I know have no āproperā dressing, just water, vinegar - and sugar despite they are salads to go with savory foodā¦ Well the cucumber one often gets paprika too Paprika can be part of any type of food. Itās almost like garum for the ancient Romansā¦ But we donāt put it into everything. Only most things 
Sweet things are a possible target. Just like for garum. The romans were crazy. āWith honey and garumāā¦ I never will get over that. Garum already sounds bad to me but for sweet things? Oh my.)
I couldnāt resist writing about these but I find them interesting and couldnāt bring myself to delete it. I hope no one gets triggered by the mere mention of very boring green vegsā¦ Though some people couldnāt live without them in summer here. Juicy, fresh, coldā¦ I get it, I just donāt need it. Beyond my tiny occasional extras, at least.
Oh well, itās summer, itās inevitable.
. By the way, we will visit the local tiny one. Still pretty and not THAT small. Especially now after all this rain! And not that local, we need the car as I canāt cycle so far. I should have but nope, I still very rarely do cycling. I feel I built more stamina somehow latelyā¦ But I need more practice to go that far (and it still would hurt my arms).
have to find somewhere else to go!.
