Have you ever been able to get over your disgust with something?

Asked by zen_ (6281points) September 19th, 2010

You may take this wherever you want, but I was thinking about two things that I find disgusting: tacos and arak.

When I was very young, I got sick immediately after eating a (home-made, funnily enough) taco. Since then, I can’t even smell them or look at them.

Later on, as a teen, I got sick after drinking too much arak – the licorice tasting drink – like ouzo. Though I do like, licorice, I can’t even imagine trying to drink the stuff.

Have you ever been able to get over something like this? Should I just accept it (it’s not the end of the world) or is there a way to get over these things?

Time, in this case, doesn’t seem to have helped. It’s been decades.
