Alternatives for cleaning products??

I really like to smell cleaning products and I very much want to eat them. I have attempted eating bar soap a few times but it did not taste good at all but I still want to eat it.

I'm looking for alternatives for things like Lavender fabuloso and dawn dish soap. I don't want the cornstarch stuff, the texture makes me want to rip off my skin

Also, I am not anemic. Due to being chronically ill I get bloodwork often and my iron is completely normal. At one point a few years ago I was but I haven't been in a while but the cravings are still there

MCAS and period problems?

Okay so, I'm 16 (trans ftm) and I've had my period for a few years and it has never been normal. I've gone between menorrhagia, amenorrhea, oligomenorrhea, all sorts of it. Last year alone I had my period like twice and NO I'M NOT PREGNANT.

​

I recently got blood tests for 9 different hormones, all of them came back completely normal. My doctor thinks it could be "functional hypothalamic oligomenorrhea" and said that a lot of my issues could be due to a lack of energy somehow. Which to me, doesn't make sense as I can't really do any high energy exercise/sports, I get my steps in but my other illnesses won't let me do anything crazy.

​

Is there any possibility this could be connected to MCAS because I have absolutely no clue what is going on. I definitely plan to talk to my doctor about it, but I just want another opinion since it'll be a while before I can get in

Genuinely how does this happen

I made this mii YESTERDAY trying to make a self aware mii, and I have only fed him twice and yet SOMEHOW both of the foods I fed him are his favorite. He literally has not had anything other than rice and mushrooms
