Lots of the people who criticize people for what they eat not being "interesting" also drive goddamn minivans and watch network TV sitcoms and read romance novels. Some people are interested in "complex" foods and tastes, other people are interested in other things. Acting like you're high and mighty over the people who don't give a fuck about food is pretty dumb.

Thanks cad. Porches are dumb, I prefer an economical midsize sedan.

Soygen · Sep 20, 2016

Yeah, I enjoy bitter. I like coffee with no sugar, bitter IPAs. I also like sports cars, sloppy vaginas and TV shows with no laugh tracks. I'm basically the total package.

Good for you. I kinda wish I could go back to not giving a fuck about cars, it'd sure save me some money.

"I don't like seafood" is another favorite of mine.

I don't like seafood. Come at me bro.

There's not a lot of food or vaginas that I don't like. Eggs are the one thing I never developed a taste for and in all honesty I want to like them, I just can't. They taste like the essence of fart to me and I just can't do it unless they are minced up inside of some fried rice or pad thai or something. Then I don't notice them.

This. This is what I meant. People arent "super tasters", they just dont like bitter.

Which makes exactly as much sense as "I dont like sweet", "I dont like sour" and "I dont like salt". Its one of the five fundamental tastes. Children avoid bitterness. Adult palates generally prefer a balance. I think people who are calling themselves "supertasters" just never moved past the instinctive dislike for bitterness that all children start with.

Its not hitting your balls with a hammer. Its not "do this painful thing b/c itll make you stronger". Its that balanced flavors -- all five tastes, INCLUDING bitter -- are more complex and interesting. Chocolate is more interesting than confectionary coating. Coffee is more interesting that sweetened milk. Beer is more interesting than wine coolers.

Branch out, explore. Embrace the bitter. Its one of the fundamentals. Like the color red. Or the key of C. Removing this from your experiences just makes life less interesting and colorful.

In fairness, I should have avoided this cliched description. I think the more accurate description is "radishy" but that sounds weird.

To the first part, yeah not into labeling. I just have never grown up and still like my drinks to be sweet: Sweet Tea, Soda/Coke/Pop depending on your region, and so on. However, by what you typed in the second part, you would consider me a total plebe. I do American steak and potatoes and have rarely ventured out. Come at me, I just know what I like. Sweet in the drinks but sweet and meat do not mix don't even come near a meat with any kind of fruit or sugar based food, or I will stab you.

Fry them hard, smother them with Montreal stake spice while cooking, then Franks red hot mixed with ketchup. Add Bacon and a slice of toast and you have a Breakfast of Champions !

Though to be fair, start telling a man his dick is "long enough" and he will get mental too, for no good reason.

But is it girthy enough? That's where it counts. Long dicks give me a stomach ache.

I wonder if the super taster gene is why some ladies do not swallow...

Tastes like chlorine, not bitter.

I don't like most foods. I'm so picky. Hate sweet, hate sour, hate coffee, hate most seafood, hate vegetables, hate rare or med beef, hate chicken fat, hate over salted anything. Love beer, hate stouts and porters ambers and anything other than hefs and IPAs. I'm like a 2 year old. Also have had an A+ Body 98% of my life so it might just be an eating disorder.

trex · Sep 20, 2016

Oh god, or chicken with a bone in it. Gag thinking about that shit.

Not a supertaster, just finicky

Hate wine. That's a fun one out with my friends...everyone gets wine and I get an ipa. #whitetrash

Holy shit! Some of you are like 5 yr olds. God damn, develop a palette of some kind other than boneless skinless chicken breast and white rice.

Also fuck anyone that does not drink coffee or beer.

Cad · Sep 20, 2016

Definitely need to cross reference the I love food posts in the last couple pages with the weight loss thread and see which of you are fat fucks.

I wouldnt call you a plebe, its not about class. I'm not sophisticated and not making fun of other for being unsophisticated. I just like to make fun of people who call themselves "supertasters" and literally eat the same bland diet preferred by every 2 year old I've ever raised. Its like calling yourself a "super audiophile" and then saying thats why you can only listen to Britney Spears, its because of your "super refined taste".

Jesus fuck its like you deliberately select all the worst beers and specifically exclude all the beers with flavor. (*Yes, Pacific Northwest Brewers: there actually can be more than a single note in beer. Its not a contest to see who can put the most hops in.)

Triggered. Nine times out of ten they havent even tried it.

Not sure if "high and mighty" is an accurate description of my criticisms. Dumb probably fits though. Isnt that what we do here?

You're implying supertaster refers to the quality of the tasting, as if he's a "better" taster than you are. It'd probably be more accurate to say they are "super sensitive" or "easily taste-triggered" and don't enjoy the types of tastes that you're referring to.

Speaking for myself I don't think I taste very well at all, as a lot of times the taste of something doesn't affect me that much. I can eat a $200 meal or taco bell and be equally happy.

Yeah if anything I'm an "under-taster." There is no food that makes me ejaculate upon eating it and also none that really makes me vomit eating it either (that being said, I've never tried or plan to try, any really outrageous Andrew Zimmern shit).

Zaara · Sep 20, 2016

Took me about half a page to realize 'super taster' wasn't some hipster beerfag term. Also Google.

Grats on being a year clean, Noodle.

Super taster does have a nicer ring to it than bitch-ass.

"Lots of little pokes?"

Alex said:
Arugula is the only leafy green that actually provides flavor. You prefer fucking lettuce? Crunchy water can go fuck itself.

Spinach is delicious. Lettuce is completely worthless.

Are you talking about food or vaginas here?

Noodleface · Sep 20, 2016

Yeah super taster just means I hate a lot of food people love and it sucks. Overly sensitive is a good way to put it.
