#The funniest I’ve gotten is ‘you could just be a v-gan!’

having food sensitivities which are not of the cause potentially deadly issues immediately variety but are of the will ruin my day my week and my long term health variety is truly the worst when traveling. Like. Plz I should actually have prepared and brought all my own meals tbh; the prep for that itself is a nightmare for multiple other reasons we don’t need to get into (usually I bring stuff to cook and snack on). So short of that plz just let me cook my own food. Otherwise yes I need to know exactly what you put in everything and yes I will need to read every single label and probably look them up. And then it will probably be “no probably not” anyway. While I wonder why I didn’t refuse in the first place -oh right so I could appear slightly less of an asshole (which tbh doesn’t work I usually feel terrible anyway, if only for the deep discomfort and repetition of the entire debacle). I have been burned too many times and I’d prefer to spend the night not retching into the toilet -if I get there- or get a “is this a migraine or a headache? What meds should I take. Oh my head hurts so much and I feel like shit” (honestly a summary of it when even thinking is often too difficult). (Plz. I’m not asking to be educated on the difference, I know, that’s not the point. Fuck off.)

if you’re thinking “get better friends” no. If you’re thinking “fucking families right?” Correct. Truly no matter how many times you explain it some people will never ever get it for a number of reasons -and even I know sx it isn’t their fault but it is still exhausting.

No. I can’t eat that. Do not offer. I’ll figure it out.
