‪I tried to go back to sleep and she stuck a spoon in my mouth and said “taste this”‬

see, you're describing the literal alternate reality version of identical behavior, but as i experienced it growing up if napping on the couch and told "smell this" or having a spoon thrust into my mouth saying "taste this", neither of those things was a good time life is a spectrum

Not oregano, so sage, maybe?

dill, sage, parsley, and a very small amount of thyme when chopped and mixed can provide an oregano-like smell but blossom into an undulating wave of flavor they can also absolutely ruin a birthday cake
