Racer,
If it makes you feel any better my mom and sis are the same way. They are disgusted with what I will and won't eat. And they NEVER remember. It doesn't matter that I haven't eaten something for 30 or more years, if I ate it 40 years ago I still love it and need it in their eyes.
Food equals love to them. When I don't eat it I don't love them.
I like plain food. Plain steamed carrots or asparagus, broiled fish or chicken. I don't want a ton of sauce or spices. And I like food cooked, not mushy, but COOKED. My sis thinks crunchy or half raw is better.
I too have GERD and can't drink much coffee. I am "rejecting" them when I turn down coffee. I am "too picky" when I ask what has artificial sweetner or Slenda in it. It doesn't matter that it makes me sick. My sister is certain Slenda and sugar are the exact same thing. She was also certain I hated pumpkin. I love it!
I hate family dinners unless I'm cooking.
