Long before the Coronavirus began wiping people’s sense of taste, I’d been claiming mine was kaputt and only the extremes in sweet, spicy and salty foods would even register. But the truth is, it’s eating itself that I haven’t enjoyed in some time, maybe ever. In fact, it disgusts me to no end that we’ve turned it into a social activity and hope one day to be told by an alien civilization that we got it wrong all along. Sure, my interest would be occasionally be piqued, only to be sated, rotated with replacements that come up short or don’t exist yet, revisited, then relegated to last resort. I’m often of the opinion that I’d be just as well off eating Solyent Green Doritos with Mountain Dew for my every meal and be done with trying to mix things up. So I think it’s no major undertaking when I choose to remove this magnificent creature from my rapidly-diminishing diet.
