Alcohol in food was a big trigger for me. I was one of those who didn't bother cooking unless I could pour half a bottle of wine into it. I couldn't eat risotto for months, and when I did, sans wine, it tasted just fine. But I have had moments when eating out when I have accidentally tasted something with wine in it and it has triggered me. I am always cautious with deserts now where often the alcohol won't have been cooked but just the taste bothers me. I switched to an alcohol free mouth wash too. I may be being over cautious but I don't see the problem with that knowing how I felt when I was drinking. I don't want to risk going back to that. I didn't reset my sobriety date when I had some of that wine based curry though
