Jodie Brown’s issue with food apparently started Very early in life, but she was able to overcome it in her teens through coaching and hypnotherapy. She didn’t even like lemon curd sandwiches by the end, but she was unable to keep other foods down reliably.
I had similar (but less severe) issues as a kid, and I can sympathize with how bad it can be. Even aside from the nutritional issues, it causes a lot of social distress to not be able to participate in food-related activities normal.
You can plug in your favorite politician here without getting too far into the weeds. Remember, it’s just a joke…
A usually-quiet commuter train ride is being disrupted by a squalling infant. Babies do sometimes cause disruptions, but this was becoming out of control, despite the mother’s entreaties. Finally, a commuting politician strides back to the mother and baby to see what he can do.
Within minutes, the baby stops crying, and simply clings to its mother. Full of self-satisfaction, the pol goes back to his seat. Before he could sit down again, though, he hears the mother say, “See? I told you the bogie man would come for you if you didn’t quit crying!”
I love it when they call it “disorder”. You’re not sick, they don’t know what you have because you have nothing, they can’t measure it objectively, but they’re going to charge you for the treatment that it’s not going to cure you ever because there’s nothing to cure to start with.
Twins is, or should I say are, the RBION topic today, and this one is a doozy, if I do say so myself.
Twin sisters in a Newfoundland nursing home were turning 100 years old. The editor of the local newspaper told a photographer to get over there and take pictures of the 100 year old twins.One of the twins was hard of hearing and the other could hear quite well.
Once the photographer arrived he asked the sisters to sit on the sofa.
The deaf sister said to her twin “WHAT DID HE SAY?” “WE GOTTA SIT OVER THERE ON THE SOFA!” said the other.
“Now get a little closer together” said the cameraman. Again “WHAT DID HE SAY?” “HE SAYS SQUEEZE TOGETHER A LITTLE”.
So they wiggled up close to each other.
“Just hold on for a bit longer, I’ve got to focus the camera” said the photographer. Yet again “WHAT DID HE SAY?” “HE SAYS HE’S GONNA FOCUS!”.
With a big grin, the deaf twin shouted out “OH LARD JESUS! BOTH OF US?? CAN I BE FIRST?”.
I’ve had selective eating disorder my entire life. Entire types of foods have been unavailable for me to consume for as long as I can remember. I didn’t realize that for most people it was caused by an irrational dislike of a food or food type. I always thought the root cause was not being able to afford to buy most types of food.
When I was a “kid” in school I made the mistake of telling my aunt who was raising me that I liked a lunch she served me. I was given that lunch everyday from 7th grade through 12th (we went home for lunch).

I didn’t believe anyone could live on a diet of only cookies for 10 years, and I was right. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-birmingham-36921773

Poor Jodie. I imagine she’d get sick of saying “curd” all the time. Like saying Chee-tos.
