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!”

Pizza snobs are the worst when it comes to judging people over food they like.

Actually, wait, there is a worse group. The people that lose their minds when someone else likes a steak “well done”.

I’m with ya here. It’s like kimchi. you wouldn’t warm kimchi. The exception for warm sauerkraut would only be a rueben sandwich for me

Kimchi is warmed regularly from use in kimchi fried rice to kimchi jiggae and beyond.

I love to put kimchi in ramen to give it a bit of acidity.

Same! It’s awesome in bibimbap too. I mean it’s awesome in pretty much anything but still lol

I’m trying to get more people to try hotdogs and chocolate syrup. Its the most american thing I’ve come up with but it isn’t bad and makes it sweet instead of savory like ketchup does. Obviously I don’t do it every time but once in a while

My poor stomach with its acid problems just gurgled at the idea of those chips lmao

I love insta ramen. I really do, and you can do a lot of variations, and I am not saying stuff that is like cook a meal and add ramen. Just simples stuff that is extra delicious.

For example, if I like the seasoning I sometimes save extra seasoning packages to make it extra seasoned.

You can make it and drain most or all water, add seasoning and butter and that is it, awesome.

You can drain some or all water and add heavy cream or even just milk, butter and extra seasoning. I like this chicken of beef bouillon, but any seasoning that you like works, just need to be something that dissolves easily and you don’t need to cook for a long time you extract flavor.

If you are feeling fancy you can add some hotdogs.

That is it, I love it and would eat more and pass on a lot of dishes for insta ramen but when I do people think I am only choosing ramen because I don’t like the other options, like a last resort, but cound not be further than the true. I tell people I really like it and prefer it, but they have a hard time believing me.

Oh my, I hadn’t heard of that before. It’s gonna be cold here so I am definitely making this soon!

You’re in for a treat, it mellows out when heated but still brings great umami and texture. Enjoy!

I don’t know if this counts, but grease. Especially pepperoni grease, the orange stuff. I will just run my finger through it and lick it off, or sop it up with bread of some kind (garlic knots are great for this).

I definitely get looks for it haha, I think I must have some deficiency or something with how I crave vinegar

Anchovies. I wouldn’t say judged but I’m alone in my love for them. Everyone in my house likes kimchi. It is loud smelling, I can sort of understand your family.

Make them a kimchi grilled cheese, or the kimchi/butter noodles - sometimes having it cooked lets it “click” for people, that was the gateway kimchi for everyone else in my house.

At work it’s licorice, though the old lady directly across from me does like it. I can imagine not liking it, but yum it’s my second favorite candy.
