Well, maybe see this as a learning experience? That in the future you can say you'll make ever effort to work something out rather than phrase it as an assurance? I remember that's what my therapist used to do, and in some cases still does.
I imagine that's a tough thing to screen for in interviewing roommates. Smell touches so many areas. It's not like asking for a nonsmoker. Perfumes and even cooking, as you discovered, can be an issue.
Maybe you and your therapist could work together to come up with some way of screening for that, so that potential roommates know that's a problem up front and may choose not to move in?
