You wanted to fuck your friend's meatloaf?

[-] Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee 6 points 1 day ago

You can absolutely fuck meatloaf

I sympathize with the bottom part so much. My parents absolutely refused to cook anything ever and bought the worst, most unhealthy prepackaged foods from the grocery stores. I spent the first years of my life thinking that things like apples just weren't sold at my local Kroger because we never had them. I felt like shit mentally and physically for pretty much the first 18 years of my life because of it.

I grew up, moved out, and holy shit I love eating "rabbit food," as my dad used to call it and I never would have learned before is that cooking is fun

[-] cm0002@lemmy.world 160 points 2 days ago

Did you to wish you could fuck your friends mom‽

[-] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 116 points 2 days ago

Yes but that was irrelevant because she never cooked for me, she was just hot. Still is, in fact.

We always joke that he has a Wine Mom. He thinks that we're calling her a drunk. It means that she gets better with age.

The "kids don't like broccoli" has a scientific reason. Kids have a lot more receptors for aromas tasting bitter (10 to 15k different chemical compounds taste bitter to them) which reduce to 5k or less when growing up. So some types of food that adults can eat without problems because they lack the receptors have bitter and vile flavours for kids.

[-] Drint@lemmy.dbzer0.com 48 points 2 days ago

Plant breeders have also been busy reducing bitterness/tannins in various vegetables like brussel sprouts and canola oil, so things are in fact less bitter than 30 years ago.

Doesn't help a lot of people used to just boil broccoli without seasoning. Doesn't do the flavor any favors.

I always assumed this is also why adults love disgusting cheese (I do to a degree as well nowadays). We just lost our sense of taste and call it refined taste.

Well, german but Broccoli and cauliflower with breadcrumbs and butter. Grandma always made this, which is why i liked it as a kid.

[-] Akasazh@feddit.nl 40 points 2 days ago

Fun fact: Brocollis is the 'veg kids don't like' in Amercia mostly. Pixar even edited scenes in 'Inside Out' where a dad feeds his daughter broccoli, turing it into bell peppers for the asian market:

This shows some really nice attention to detail.

[-] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Broccoli, cauliflower, and green beans we (brother and I) were always fine with as kids. It was the asparagus and spinach I never cared for as a kid. Turned out it wasn't the spinach's fault, my mother would just buy bags of frozen spinach, put it in a microwave safe container and turn it on. So if tasted bad. As I learned to cook I started to like it as I actually used it in other ways. Asparagus though... I rarely give a chance, and usually if I do I'm frying it in bacon grease which defeats the purpose of eating a vegetable I feel.

[-] froh42@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Both my kids favorite veggie was broccoli when they were small. I'd prepare it the way you'd get it in an Italian restaurant - small parts of it just bleached for a short time, so it stays firm, served with nice olive oil and salt. (And a bit of lemon, if I have it on hand)

Broccoli (like so many veggies) tastes awful when overcooked into a soft and mushy consistency (and then it also changes its taste in a bad way).

Here in Germany grandmas typically are amazing cooks, with the sole exception when they cooked veggies. That generation loved their vegs really soft and overcooked.

[-] Emerald@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I only like raw asparagus. If it is cooked, it tastes nasty as hell

Never had it raw, thanks for the tip. I'll give it a try

Broccoli tossed in olive oil, cooked in an air fryer until crispy and then sprinkled with course salt. Delicious 👌🏼

[-] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 days ago

You forgot garlic. Copious amounts of garlic at every step.

I too choose this guy's mom.

[-] cm0002@lemmy.world 36 points 2 days ago

Fun Fact, if broccoli kinda tastes like soap to you, congratulations! You have a gene variation that makes certain bitter flavors taste like soap, it's stronger in childhood (which is potentially why "Kids hate broccoli" trope is a thing) and tends to fade into adulthood, but not always.

There are also studies being done to figure out specifically which compounds in broccoli make it taste like that to cultivate it out to encourage more broccoli consumption

There are just a ton of foods that input in my mouth that immediately make me feel like I'm going to vomit. I really hate it.

[-] Snowclone@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Did you get sick a lot as a kid? Like long term, not just related to food?

[-] JackbyDev@programming.dev 2 points 1 day ago

I don't think so, no. Why?

[-] TheOakTree@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago

I think they're asking because you can develop taste aversion by eating something and getting sick (even if the sickness is completely unrelated).

My sister got H1N1 when it was proliferating, and she had a box of nilla wafers before the symptoms started hitting hard. Now she inexplicably can't eat a single nilla wafer.
