anecdotally, Ive gotten this with store bought basic sliced bread. I used to love it and snack on just bread as a kid, but Ive been making my bread with a bread machine for a few years, and now the store bread just tastes and feels like weak, dry, slightly sweetened insulation foam.
Sliced bread is like a store bought tomato, once you’ve had the homegrown/baked version, you are fucked.
No this is exactly what I mean! Ignorance sometimes is bliss.
Another example: I cannot watch mediocre television anymore
I really wanna know if our biochemical response is different to the same stimuli if we have experienced “better” before or not.
Similarly, I enjoyed cheap sake until I had expensive sake. I was better off before!
