After being laid off last spring I immediately began to crave certain foods and detest others. Foods that reminded me of work were banished from my daily routine and items that used to nauseate me became increasingly desirable.
Pickles are my favorite "ALO" (after lay-off) snack. I used to find them bitter and too garlicky for everyday consumption. Now, I dream about them. I have eaten whole jars in one sitting. I am not bitter myself (I SWEAR I'M NOT), but I have a newfound deep appreciation for the flavor. Sadly, I have not been able to enjoy pistachios and raisin/nut mixes as these were my go-to afternoon snacks at the office.
Ps. I thought I was pregnant when I first got laid off as I figured that was the only way my eating habits could possibly change
Pps. I quickly realized said Ps. was impossible as I don't have sex
Ppss. I also JUST realized said Pps. will be discovered when I am a big politician and some idiot pundit will reblog about me being an inappropriate food blogger who finds ways to incorporate lack of sex life into eating life
What are your ALO snacks??
