I just overheard a coworker saying “Oh, I would never try that in my life!”, in a discussion of food. (This was about consuming a steak cooked less than medium well). It made me wonder what life is like for those who refuse to try new food, especially those who refuse to try mundane things like fried shrimp.
Why limit yourself? It seems like such a closed-minded way to view food. Help me understand?


We do sound similar. I love onion powder and add it to most things when I cook. I can tell why people like onions, I just hate them. I do kinda wish I could stand regular onions as well. But yeah, something about them lingers in food and just taints it.
Also, I only like oatmeal when I make it. Most other oatmeal is gross. I use the rolled oats, and I don’t cook it particularly long. Raw oats are edible, actually, so you don’t have to worry about undercooking. Might be worth a try if you want to like oatmeal. Cheers.
