Absolutely!

When I was a small child a teacher at school learned the hard way that forcing me to eat something is a very bad idea.

Like you, my mouth and stomach have minds of their own.

When she tried to force a piece of mayo-coated tomato into my mouth, after I told her that I could not eat mayonnaise, the results were as volcanic as there were predictable.

She never tried to force me to eat something again, and to this day I won’t touch mayonnaise.
