Have you ever felt so hungry that in your mind you can easily finish the meal in front of you in a second, but then after a few bites some unexpected things happen and it crushes all your appetite? I have that kind of feeling in so many times, and in so many occasions, the appetite was all gone, but I still have to continue eating since my belly was hungry. it gets to the point that eating just to fill the stomach, but not to enjoy the food.
For me here are some of those occasions that often times crushed my appetite, from simple to severe reason.
Food too hot
I think this is the common thing that ruins the appetite, when you see the food you try to immediately dig in, but when you put it in your mouth you get a little burning sensation, and after that, you lose the sense of your tongue and can't enjoy the food anymore. you could never enjoy the food after that since, you want to only finish the food, but cannot enjoy itChewing hard item
Now I will talk about home food, not at the restaurant since they have different standards. I have chewed grit a few times when I eat at home, maybe because the rice is usually to clean enough and some grit also went through. After that chew, the appetite will not be the same because you will be a lot more cautious, the feeling of chewing the grit is not that comfortable. hahaFinding items
the last one I think is only applied when you are having a meal in an outside place not at your home. Finding hair, or some other thing in the food can be an appetite crusher, although I think you can still have the meal or have it replace with the other meal. But make sure that you do it nicely and not causing a scene in the establishment.
