Everyone knows lobster is overrated af, no need to be an edgelord about it.

Seafood in general is fucking disgusting.

>get invited out to dinner
>it's a seafood place
>forced to be that guy who orders a steak that's buried at the bottom of the menu
>it's always shitty and overpriced
>the smell of the restaurant alone makes me nauseous

I can't even eat tuna salad.

>>7924153
I feel like scallops are the same way too. They always sound like a good idea on a menu but I'm always vaguely disappointed when I eat them

>>7924176
>>7924162
Funny thing is I actually like other seafood. Shrimp, scallops, crawfish, mussels. Lobster just doesn't do it for me.

>>7924147
This is fucking vile and there is no excuse for it.

>>7924182

>Hasn't tried seeded, hot English or German mustard

>>7924185
That has absolutely nothing to do with standard fare yellow mustard.

>>7924162
What about Fish'n'ships or deep fried shrimps?

>>7924192
Piss of snob. Classic yellow mustard has its place

>>7924247
On brats and ballpark dogs

DON'T YOU DARE PUT MEMEUP ON EITHER OF THEM

>>7924162
I feel for you.

Fish is good, but seafood in certain restaurants are literally shit, mussels that are grey, sand in the clams, i like it as long as it's properly stored up before being cooked, and usually it's not.

Cold pizza

Fuck it

>>7924264
You're inhuman. Cold pizza is the GOAT snackfood of leftovers. Rewarmed pizza is always soggy.

Scallops and oysters

They just taste like mushy blobs of water

>>7924264
Same, idk cold pizza just taste off to me, on the other I love cold fried chicken like I almost enjoy it more cold than warm

>>7924265
Rewarm pizza in the oven to regain the crispy crust. Unless, that is, you eat that deep dish garbage.

>>7924266
i used to think that way until i had good scallops that were cooked perfectly
shit was divine
oysters are just ok though, don't get the hype. pretty good barbecued

>>7924264

>>7924360
WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?

Tomatoes

>>7924377
>chemical-y tasting fudgy material coated in shellac

No thanks Jethro, I'll take zebra cakes, swiss rolls, and oatmeal creme pies over that shit any day of the week

Onions

hamburgers. Went to a trip to indonesia when I was young and had an "american" beef burger at a dodgy burger joint. Ended up getting severe food poisoning that lasted for a week and a half of non-stop diarrhea and vomiting. After I recovered, my body gags at the sight of a hamburger and haven't been able to eat one since. I can eat chicken burgers just fine though.

>>7924472
>goes to some third world place to get american food
>gets food poisoning
what the fuck did you expect, why dont you try a real goddamn burger

>>7924487
I'd rather stick to chicken burgers.

reminder that lobster was used as fertilizer until fishermen realized they could trick gullible fucks into thinking it was high class

>>7924373
Oh...see I've always eaten them raw.

>>7924147
>rubery
don't overcook it then you faggot
>>7924153
>>7924162
children detected.

>>7924176
theyre very expensive for what they taste yeah, but theyre still fucking good

>>7924182
Mustard litterally opens up tastebud receptors and makes you taste food more. it's like horse radish and it objectively makes anything taste better when it doesn't overpower it.

>>7924247
its great on basically any deli cut.

>>7924366
deep dish "Garbage" normally has crispy crust unlike floppy newyork

>>7924472
this happened to me with breakfast sausage once. I got over it, You could do the same, but honestly the burger isn't worth it. it's amazing but it's too easy to fuck up, if you are an outsider you could go your whole life without finding some decent ones.

If you do get back into the game being state side, try the habit. if you had your experiance you did then there they would shut the place down.

Kek. Are you the mcchicken poster?

Tuna - hate it, cant even watch someone eat it and Im not the type who gets grossed out easy. (I once drank someone elses "Vodka Vomit", yes I was drunk too)

Salmon

I don't get it, it's fishy taste is pretty overbearing, and here in the NW, it's always paired with hipster shit, or cooked on cedar or some other nonsense

I'll just stick with whitefish and Ivar's, thanks

>>7924264
I hear you. People love the shit out of it and I think it's just ok.

Hate soda, hated it even more when I was a kid. Also hate most high proof alcohol like whiskey and vodka. Everclear tastes better to me because it's flavorless.

>>7925024
>reminder that whiskey is a poor-mans schnaps
They taste nothing alike you absolute retard

>>7924472
indonesians eat doges homie. also i should mention they have no cooking standards and are filthy muslim fucks in general.

>>7924162

i also don't like seafood. i feel for you anon. strange thing is i loved it when i was a kid.


i absolutely hate everything about sushi. seaweed makes me gag. wasabi tastes like hot garbage.

>>7925386
>wasabi tastes like hot garbage
Wasabi has taste? Every time I eat it my tongue catches fire and my nose turns into the fire brigade spraying mucus everywhere.

>>7925633
You're not supposed to eat a spoonful at a time, foolio.

Chilli

>>7924402
I agree on whole, raw tomatoes, but pureed tomatoes are so versatile.

Mustard, beans, all vegetables, every fruit except oranges and bananas.

>>7924185
Seeded mustard is GOAT, I cook mussels in it and it tastes great and adds a nice texture to the sauce

>>7924522
reminder that they fed it to prisoners because they thought it was shit for ages

I have trouble with most fish. I've been trying to build up my tastes for them since there's so much variety but I'm still working on it.

>>7924247
>piss of snob
What is this, your favorite dish?
Fucking plebeians

>>7925386
I used to not like seafood but I've taught myself to like it as i have to go to Japan occasionally

I used to suck on the seaweed sheets while working so i became so used to, add bonito to lots of sauces and sprinkle seaweed on things. Also drinking miso soup every day.

Eventually i went from downing the soup to just drinking it, I can eat sushi without feeling ill now and the seaweed doesn't make me choke. I also pick out the bonito and enjoy the flavour. Other seafood stuff feels mild in comparison generally so I just accept it and enjoy it.

>>7925901
I heard about this shit - a prison kitchen is pretty shitty, especially back then, so naturally the prisoners would get pissed. I'm sure those cooks didn't give a fuck

steak
the majority of beef and chicken and any products containing them
mussels clams etc
most beans

Peanut butter

>>7924472
fun fact, thats called conditioned taste aversion and its a psychological thing that is meant to prevent you from killing yourself by eating poison over and over. in modern times its just an annoying thing that gets in the way of good food, i had it for some shitty beef jerky and had to force myself to get past it because i knew that i was missing out on good food.

>>7925868
Damn dude, what do you eat

>>7927720
This has to be true
>ate an entire ackage of peach rings as a kid
>puked like mad
>never ate peach rings again

>ate pizza and skittles as a kid
>got sick because I forget
>puked like mad
>never ate skittles again

>drank two four lokos in an hour as a dumbass
>puked like mad (too much sugar, man)
>never drank four loko again

fruit for some reason. idk why. every type just makes me want to spit it out right as I put it into my mouth.

>>7927746
*excuse me not skittles, they were runts

Olives, and by extension nearly all Greek food.

>>7924402
oh you fucked up.
I hated these fuckers for a long time. More moons than you've been alive likely.

Than I tried roasted plum tomatoes.
acquire tomatoes
mix one part salt, one part pepper one part sugar


Cut tomatoes in half, add mix to taste.
bake at 350F until only barely any fluid is left. and you've got a shiny tomato

If you like that umami leave the juice in, it takes longer though. maybe lower the heat.

really concentrates the flavor

>>7925175
fishy overbearing.
ah I see you've had overcooked spoiled salmon

>>7924147
Potato salad.

>>7924360
>he hates cosmic brownies
Did you drink the cosmic brownie shake or what?

>>7924147
I don't mind lobster but if i'm getting shellfish I want crab.
Nothing better than some good crab legs with butter sauce.
