My family and I are fighting off seasonal allergies, we all feel like poop..sore throats, watery eyes, stuffy and runny noses, low energy, etc. I really don't feel like eating anything, except cookies. I'm always like this when I am sick. I thought it was just me, but my very young nephew, who is at home sick as well, told me that nothing has any flavor, except for sweets. Good thing I don't have much in the way of sweets on hand.

I think we look at sugary treats as comfort food...unfortunately. Good call not having a lot of sugar stuff around. Get better soon.

What your nephew says actually makes a lot of sense. Most foods have a strong smell that affects taste as much actual taste, but cookies (after baking lol) have a milder smell, so having a stuffy nose doesn't make them much less palatable. Plus sugar (especially HFCS) has a more intense flavor, adding to the whole tastes good even when I can't smell it thing.
My favorite thing for feeling sick cravings is yogurt: delicious, sweet, and low calorie, plus all those great pro biotics.

Quercitin is wonderful for allergies-it is made from nettles and can be found at any health food store. It takes a little longer to really change your symptoms than an OTC product but it works without making you feel like you are drugged up. :) Also: local honey is a wonder food for allergies. I have several friends who swear by this and use about a tablespoon a day to keep their allergies at a lower level. Hope you are feeling better very soon!
