Are you a picky eater? Is there something wrong with that?

I am an extremely picky eater for a lot of reasons, and I have seen it annoy those around me.  But what can I say or do?  My choices belong to me, and I have my reasons.  Some of them have to do with my digestive health, and you don't want to know what I mean.  Some of them have to do with the health of the planet and the health of the animals on it, and I bet you don't want to hear about that either. 
I'm extremely sensitive to carbohydrates. In my mind, I'm doing everyone around me a favor by avoiding them, since I become anxious and angry eating them.  I don't expect anyone else to take care of me, and I am perfectly happy to go hungry if there's nothing appropriate available.  I'm in no danger of malnutrition.

Ground lamb from Safeway/Vons

Product of New Zealand, $6.99 per pound for ground.  I thought the meat tasted pretty good, like lamb should, with a strong but not sour taste.  The patties were made with 1 egg, fresh sage and oregano, pepper, paprika and red pepper flakes.
