A place where you can rant to your heart's content.

Rules :
  1. Follow all of Lemmy code of conduct.
  2. Be respectful to others, even if they're the subject of your rant. Realize that you can be angry at someone without denigrating them.
  3. Keep it on Topic. Memes about ranting are allowed for now, but will be banned if they start to become more prevalent than actual rants.

Sesame paste aka tahini proves 3/4 of those points objectively wrong!

...I know, I know, "objective" when it comes to tastes is an oxymoron. But seriously, tahini is awesome: flavourful, won't get stuck in your teeth, and it makes a lot of dishes go from "meh" to "wow". Still a bit messy, as it's a paste.

Bonus points if it's halawa (dunno the English name), a sweet made with tahini and honey. I seriously love that stuff.

I think the English word is pretty much 'halava'. There's no equivalent word so we just use that.
