[Help] A wierd dream

[hEhEnegers]

I just recently got a dream today . For foundational knowledge , I am a vegan and havent ate meat . (-> = Then)
The dream , I have forgot of things before and after a particular incident.
Th incident can be described via the following posts
1) I was sitting in a restaunt or some kind , the background walls consisted of bright yellowish shade ,and it was stools right next to a counter kindoff restro
2) I was lost in my thoughts while sitting there
3) Then I saw , some cooked Lizards which were impaled by a wooden stick and bieng surved to be , like french fries uk , but it looked more like a snack out of lizards , they looked golden browinsh
4) After seeing the lizrds I became conscious of me bieng in the dream as an independent consciousness but I wasnt able to control my actions.
5) I began talking to someone , i cant recall what but it felt like I was conversing
6) then brutal part , I ate one of the lizards and felt a sensation similar to , (crispy like chips -> Soft but cooked almost jigly kinda -> Acidic tingly sensation )
7) At first it felt like I was able to control myself and eat only like the very tip top of the lizard , but then I took a 2nd chop around it neck and eating it
At that point I became so conscious of what I was doing that I woke up. But the wierd thing is that the acidic tingly sensation after taste in the dream followed even when I was awake ,
I brushed with my mint based tooth paste , but still the after taste was there till for next 4 - 5 hours before it faded out during my lunch.

This happend to me like a week ago , but I after comparing what Lizards actually taste like and learning about dream meanings , I cant reach a conclusion. so I decided to ask for help before I furgot the dream , like I have furgot many things aboout the dream as it is now.
SO I want help understanding what that dream actually means

Warning dream for sure.
Talking to someone in this scene = potential source of treachery, source of bad intentions, verbal abuse
Lizards = unclean animals, you are consuming something negative or harmful to one's well-being, in this case, something you are listening to or something someone told you about.
Bad taste = someone in your life with bad intentions that fed you lizard meat (lies, deceit, harm)

Have you recently listened to someone in a cult or introducing something you find disgusting, yet you considered it or tried to digest it to be open-minded, or because you care about them?

About the aftertaste for hours after waking, that can happen. Sometimes a dream leaves behind a sensory memory even if it’s just a dream. Like the brain holds onto the taste as a memory after you’re awake.

Since the food is made and served by other people in the restaurant in the dream, you’re not fully controlling what you’re being given. So this dream connects to themes of trust and boundaries.
