Alas - nay, regrettably - I would choke on that cheese omelette.

A childhood 'thing', out of nowhere: an aversion to eggs, especially cooking them in the same room where I am or will be, can cause an unpleasant scene. Can't stand the taste of a glass of milk, either. Love cheese, yogurt, etc. No allergy to things made with eggs nor to dairy; not lactose intolerance.

I met someone else, a German (whilst I was in Europe) who had the same thing happen to his sensibilities. Out of nowhere. Some aversion, same effects. Tough luck on both of us.

So - after assaulting whoever cooked it, I would, indeed, choke on the omelette if I tried to eat it..
