> That goes so far that I can not go to restaurants anymore
I would call that a direct impact to quality of life (if only because you're missing out on the social experience), which is the exact point the GP made.
There are some restaurants with high quality food. And I enjoy them. After all my quality of live is way better than before. My social experience improved because I met interesting people with the same interest / taste at my local Foodcoop for example.
