What is something...

Has to be at room temp. If someone attempts to serve it chilled or any other way than room temp...UGH.

It's definitely more palatable than some of the other whisky I've tried. Still wouldn't go out of my way to drink it, though!

The first time I tried a Heineken beer, I wasn't sure I liked it. By the time I had the second one, it had grown on me...lol After that we named a dog Heineken.

I used to like it. Over the years i decided to try again and found it terrible. Tastes do change over the years.

Tastes do change over the years.

Yes, they do. I believe the reason I like blue cheese, olives and anchovies is because my parents introduced me to them at a very young age. I probably didn't immediately like them, but at some point I "acquired" the taste for them and that was that.

It doesn't work for everything, though, as I said - I've never been able to acquire the taste for whisky or red wine. However, I did read an article once that said men and women can have a different experience when they taste the same things. This is apparently why men tend to drink bitter drinks like beer and whisky (which do not taste bitter to them) and women tend to prefer sweeter ones like Bailey's and pina colada! I know which camp I'm in, lol!

I was same way with coffee. I think back now and think...EH?! I didn't like coffee? lol.

I can tolerate an anchovy or two, provided I was warned in advance!

I don't usually consume alcohol, but once in a while I enjoy a Sam Adams winter lager. Once I had to attend a Christmas party at the home of Mr. Garnet's boss. I couldn't stand his wife and she couldn't stand me, so I made Mr. Garnet promise to leave after twenty minutes. I was so stressed that he took me out to supper and I had my first taste of winter lager. I usually don't like beer, but that one was an exception!

OK...here we go. Fried Cabbage and Onions with Noodles. I LOVE that stuff!

I'd be curious to try that. It sounds like comfort food.

Curry is fine in certain recipes and also in moderation.

I think I posted a recipe for tuna salad that has apples and curry powder in it. Delicious in a pita pocket!

We do all seem to keep coming back to the topic of food, don't we?
