[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Since when does everyone have to like the same kinds of food?

I also love Mexican, Indian, Vietnamese, Lao, Persian, Filipino, Greek, some Japanese and some Caribbean cuisines.

I don't like French, Italian, Scottish, Nordic cuisine, and honestly not American food either.  Not a fan of the standard British and Irish foods either.  To me, there is not enough flavor and not enough vegetables.  Too bland and I would never spend money at a restaurant for American food.  So simple to make and overpriced.

When I eat meat, it should have the taste and aroma of a proper blend of spices.  I don't like the taste of just meat/flesh, nor do I like the texture of big hunks of it.  It should be marinated properly or cut into small pieces.

With Indian food, you need to understand the subtleties of the different spices that you are eating.  Sometimes they are in the food for flavor, other times certain spices pair well with certain foods because it aids in the digestion process of that particle food item or the enhances the nutritional profile.  Spices are some of nature's most amazing food items because they have so many variables to them.  Nutrition, flavor, digestion, color, etc.

If your palate is not used to them and not able to properly discern the flavors then it does become overwhelming and can be too much.  Especially so if you didn't grow up with these flavors.

So everyone is different.  If you don't like a type of food, then don't eat it.  Why do you think you have to like something just because others do?  Some introspection might be needed.

Agree! I don't go out for American food. What I can make at home is better. To each his own. [/quote]
