This is very much just a MY family thing. But most of my family members cannot stand when I eat kimchi in the house. I love it so I’m not going to stop but gosh, they get so grossed out.

      Your actions are proud and you should feel proud! (I will admit I’m having trouble getting in board with the person who likes miracle whip. The applications they described are legit, but MW’s ingredients are just so terrible, I can’t bring myself to endorse its use. Surely there are more natural alternatives?)

        It’s a highly processed mayonnaise which they dilute with water and modified starch, then increase its volume by blowing nitrogen into the mix.

        Fun fact:
        It was invented during the Great Depression, for people who couldn’t afford real mayonnaise.
        And mayonnaise was allegedly invented during the Siege of Fort St Philip in the 7-Years-War, because real cream wasn’t available.
        So Miracle Whip is a poor man’s version of a wartime alternative to whipped cream.

    I like 100% dark chocolate. Like Lindt 100% cocoa dark chocolate. I once pranked my office. I got reactions from “This is chalk. I fucking hate you.” to “I like dark chocolate, let me try some… What the FUCK!! This tastes like burnt tires!”

    It’s usually wild game or unusual cuts of meat. I’m happy to say I’ve converted almost everyone who tried it to lengua tacos, and fish cheeks, though!

      I had to look up what “lengua” was. Figurers that it has to be disguised with a fancy name over there.
      But then of course US people throw away half the food on the animals they butcher.

        Lengua isn’t a fancy name. In the context of tacos, it’s the appropriate term. Lengua is Spanish for tongue, and tacos are Mexican. Where they speak Spanish.

        It’s equivalent to saying chorizo tacos instead of sausage tacos. But go on and enjoy that high horse.
