I have a friend with long Covid who has suffered from extreme food aversions, but after more than a year, she's starting to do better. She has long volunteered at her church's food kitchen, but even the smell of many dishes could set her off. Hang in there and keep experimenting. Even she found a few foods she could tolerate.
Welllll, it varied. Macaroni and cheese, mashed potatoes, creamy soups/broth, yogurt and grits were usually okay for me. Getting enough protein was a problem. Eggs, meat, poultry and fish didn’t sit well. Protein smoothies were recommended, but I didn’t have the energy to make them.

Was there any good that tasted good? I'm thinking a daily buffet of a bit of everything?

I guess one could throw an egg into soup or something but then, where would the soup come from. Hmmm.
Interesting that it changes your tastes buds, and flushing the toilet twice.
Another brilliant writing. Thanks for posting.
