Was it a much-needed digital detox… or did I realize I need my phone more than I thought? 👀

Vomiting is awful, but it got me thinking: why does our brain instantly develop a lifelong trauma against foods that make us sick?In this episode, we're talking about severe food aversions, the tragedy of losing your favorite comfort food, and those childhood dishes we swore to never touch again after one bad experience.🎧 What is the one food you will NEVER eat again?
Nature is supposed to be peaceful and Instagram-ready, right? Well... not quite.
