Why again and again are we subjected to so much sanctimony on the FOOD forum? If you’re not interested in food or cooking, why come here? To defend bland and pedestrian palates? [/quote]

Flan qualifies as bland.  Do you not like it?  How about grilled asparagus?  Bland, too.  And what about silky mashed potatoes like they serve at the finest Michelin 4-star restaurants in France (at which, I am sure you have never dined)?  They would qualify as bland (and mashed potatoes are as pedestrian as they get) as well yet they are delicious nonetheless. They also are a de rigueur class at Le Cordon Bleu Paris, another place to which I am sure you have never been, would be accepted by or studied at.

The OP's in-laws seem to prefer foods that are not spicy and that might be considered quintessential American.  I've met plenty of people in my world travels who prefer their own country's cuisine and who eschew foods from other countries.  Is that wrong of them?  No, absolutely not.

Your mockery of the OP's in-laws and their food preferences is misguided and rude.  You might want to think about why you are so intolerant and limited in your world view that you have to put down that which you don't understand.  [/quote]
