Read the book titled "Moonwalking with Einstein", it's an investigation of a journalist with average memory into how memory works and how he trained himself into being a US champion of memorization. (yes it's a sport)
The analysis is quite interesting as it notes how we memorize things before and after invention of "external memory" like books, computers, etc.
There's also a tutorial to help you improve your memory. It's hard work, but rewarding.

Lack of sleep, lack of nutrition, caffeine withdrawal, lack of exercise, too much exercise. I speak from experience.

How do you even work up the appetite?
Most of the ones that taste good have food preservatives
