People are really weird about food. Like, really fucking weird.

I cook food for small groups of people (2-10 at a time) and have to find ways to make sure they're all happy while not having to cook something different for each person. Sometimes it's really hard with people's hangups about food.

I used to be a really picky eater, but through just growing up and naturally changing, and also putting in a decent amount of effort to force myself to like foods that I previously didn't, I now have a very broad palate and like most foods. It's very frustrating to me when I have to work around people who eat like toddlers.

And I'm not talking about allergies or dietary restrictions. Only preferences.
