Not everything in this world is our favorite. We have our dislikes, pet peeves, not my type of things. It is normal because we are human! There is nothing wrong with having preferences. We should just address them nicely.
In today's article, I will be choosing my five not-so-favorite things in the world. It can be food or a situation.
Well, I do not really hate them. The word "hate" is so powerful, so in this case, I will just say, not so favorite.
Thank you, lovely sponsors!
Let's begin, shall we?
1) Yellow Mango
This fruit really is not so my favorite. I like the green one, but the yellow does not really pass my taste.
I know, in the Philippines, our country is blessed with tropical fruits including mango. Some countries envy us because we have the cheapest fruits in the market.
It is a shame on my part that I do not eat this fruit. Maybe one day I will learn how to love the taste of a yellow mango.
2) Shrimp and Crab
My allergies to shrimps and crabs started when I was in high school. Our guardian back then gave me a bowl of shrimps. After eating, I notice that I cannot breathe properly and my airways are blocked.
We consulted the pediatrician and said that my lungs are swollen which is why I cannot breathe properly.
Since then, I have only limited myself to just two little shrimps and crabs. I do not want to risk myself passing out just to eat this. It is my favorite before, now not so because I want to take care of my health. I can eat alternatives like mussels or fish, though.
3) A sticky peel after taking off the label
Do you know when you take off the label from a jar then a sticky film leaves on it? Ugh, this task is really not my favorite. It will take me hours to remove the residues from the jar. I kind of OCD when it comes to it, especially when the jar is a food container. We usually recycle jars for our fruits, sauces, etc.
I then found a solution online by putting nail polish remover on the area. Not all the time is I have this item. Sometimes, I just let the labels on the jar even if it is not aesthetic, or else I will lose my mind. Haha!
4) An empty bottle in the fridge
Sometimes, in your household, someone accidentally or absent-mindedly put an empty bottle in the fridge. This is one of the annoying "I forgot" scenes in the house. I think it is a waste of electricity.
The unsatisfaction you get when you are really thirsty and want to drink cold water in this oven-like country, then find out that the bottle is empty. This is so annoying and I cannot compare how pissed off I am about it. Haha!
Sometimes, we made a deal that whoever did this act will be punished by cleaning or cooking. In that way, no one is going to do it again.
5) Smelly beddings and linens
I mean, who likes to roll in a smelly bed? I always change my linens when they smell bad. I change it twice a week. It is always my pet peeve. I believe that if we have fresh linen, our sleep will be faster and longer.
Also, being hygienic is a big role now in our lives since the pandemic happened. I always make sure also that the linens are clean because there are bacterias that we cannot see in our linens. it is better to change twice a week to avoid getting sick.
Final Thoughts
My list can go on but for now, I will have five of them. There are things that we do not like, and that is okay. But for sure, I have more favorites than not-so favorites. These are shallow things compared to what is really the issue in this world.
If I encounter these things, it is okay. I am not the type that will go berserk when I hate things, lol. Anyway, thank you for reading this part. I will see you in the next article!

Yung crab and shrimp dn akoooo, it's not that I dont like them, I just dont like the allergies. I am allergic to any seafood except for fish. I first found out when I was in gradeschool and habang nagrorosary kami bahing ako ng bahing until namaga yung bibig ko, then buong muka ko and yung bahing ko would last for 5 to 10 seconds literal, masakit sa dibdib. Pero masarap silaaaaaa
