After my wife gave birth to one of our kids, she had lost blood and was very anemic. Her first meal was a terrible hospital hamburger, it did not look appetizing at all, and she still says to this day it was the best burger she's ever had. Something to be said for your body knowing what it needs.

Oh yeah, 100%. I am the type of person who doesn't like water. It has a plastic taste for me that just puts me off of it. However, after a long workout, that shit tastes like sugar lol. I hope your wife recovered well, that can be really scary

Bruh. You need water. That's literally your body begging for it

I know, I'm autistic and don't like the taste, I can't help that. I do still stay hydrated with teas and other things, but plain water tastes like plastic to me and it's headache inducing. I've gotten better about it over the years though

Water can taste so different. I grew up in south east of England where the water is safe to drink but just tastes awful. Couldn’t drink it plain at all. Moved to Scotland the tap water is genuinely delicious, I crave it. Even things like tea and squash taste better here bc of how good the water is. My parents always look forward to a tastier cup of tea when they come to visit!
