Firstly, I will say that this food experiment is not the highlight of my day. I might not be dreading as much as I did on Tuesday, but the idea of eating those foods at some point when I get home doesn't fill me with joy either. However, I've taken the get-it-over-with approach, as dragging out the experience makes it worse.
So, I hear you cry, has anything changed yet? In terms of the tomatoes, no. They are still tasting grim, though my colleagues at work made the valid point that I may not be able to start to like them whilst I dread eating them. An interesting point. How much does my subconscious hatred of tomatoes affect what my taste buds are telling my brain? If I say the words "mmm yum" before I eat them, will that speed things up? I'll try it and tell you.
In terms of the tuna, I didn't mind the after taste today. I discovered that my wife had mixed me some tuna mayonnaise for the last couple of days, which I hated the smell of, but today I ate some straight from the can, and I've got to be honest and say it wasn't the worst thing I've ever tasted. We'll see how I feel about it tomrrow, but I guess the next step is to actually make something with tuna in it (or use it as a pizza topping). The experiment continues...
