What are some of the things you haven't eaten in so long they basically don't even register as edible any more?

I've got a pretty severe sensitivity to -- of all things -- sugar. (I know, "sugar" isn't very precise, but I'm pretty sure it's either glucose, fructose, or sucrose.) I virtually never eat anything with added sugar or anything with any significant amount of natural sugar. And I've eaten that way for like 20 years now. I'm practically blind to half the produce department (any "sweet" fruits like apples, pears, cherries, grapes, oranges, etc) at the grocery store, let alone the candy isle.

McDonald's
I don't know if the recipe/ingredients changed, or I just started eating healthier, but I can't even have a cheeseburger from there without my body rejecting it.
Whataburger is still good though, love me a chicken bbq sammach with bacon, pickles and toast bun.
Came here wondering if anyone said mcds. Everything about that place has gotten worse over the last 5 years or so. It wasn't that great to begin with. The only redeeming factor was that it was cheaper than many places, but now it's garbage and expensive.
I haven't considered mcds since the covid shut down, and even then I'd been off it for years.
I can eat a lot of weird foods, but McDonald's food just falls into the uncanny valley for me. It's like something an AI would synthesize from raw chemicals.
I distinctly remember McDonald's being more than a rough approximation of food at one point. I don't know when that changed.
I do too. It was never my favorite fast food, but it used to be ok.
I know they strive for uniformity, so I don't know if they just cranked up the food science too hard or what.
Things are supposed to taste a little different, which is why people love different foods. Columbian coffee, San Marzano tomatoes, single malt Scotch, different grapes in wine, etc. It's what makes eating an experience instead of some kind of chore.
