      How is it punching down to make fun of someone for eating bland food?

      Many people who eat like this are closed minded to trying foods from other cultures because they use flavors and spices that add richness to the food that they perceive as “unsafe”. This often extrapolates out to a weird form of xenophobia.

      It’s not punching down to make fun of xenophobes….

      My husband doesn’t eat onion, pepper, mushroom and any other “weird” vegetable. Try cooking with these restrictions. If I have to use one of these, he’ll eat it, but he won’t like it, so I feel like it’s not fair to serve to him constantly, only once in a while.

      I have a hypothesis but am not smart enough to verify. But I think Onion affects some people like cilantro. Where a portion of people have a reaction to it and others do not. But mostly that they are responding to onion’s intended natural defense of vapor and oil.

        I have an alternative hypothesis: At least some people who say they don’t like onion are basing that opinion entirely on raw onion and refuse to consider and/or haven’t noticed cooked onion.

        Go to restaurant, get served a house salad, bite into the purple thing, OH GOD WHAT IS THAT?

      I have a love hate relationship with it. The extra flavor onion can add is god tier. The texture is awful. So I cook with it but leave minimal pieces left in the dish.

        Out of curiosity, is it any onions?

        Like there’s white, yellow, and red onions. On top of that, lightly cooked yellow onions are far different from heavily carmalized ones (crunchy and oniony vs soft and sweet)

              Speaking as someone with texture issues and a very sensitive pallet, it fucking sucks ass. Lived in India for 4 years, couldn’t eat fucking anything even though I tried to force myself every day. I wish I could enjoy Asian food the way everyone else does :( At least I had butter chicken 😭

              Well, it does suck. I remember when I was in high school and I found some cookbook with recipes from different countries. I tried cooking some of them and was amazed at how intense the taste was. Only later I realized that those recipes were pretty normal, they just tasted amazing compared with my mother’s cooking. It’s not that my mother’s cooking was very bland but Polish cuisine is pretty boring. It’s mostly salty and sour, not much variation. And some people never venture out beyond what they grew up with.

            You basically can, albeit not in pill form. There’s a whole category of complete meal replacement options, mostly in the form of shakes. The best known is Soylent by Rosa Labs, but there are dozens of others targeting every nutritional profile around. Most are a fraction of the cost of even the most basic foods.

            Strangely, most of those people will still not even try these.

      I am kind of the same way with garlic. I can certainly enjoy foods that have garlic as one of the ingredients, but if it’s the main flavor, I tend to not like it. Like, if I’m choosing from the hummus varieties available to me, I have no problem with the plain hummus that obviously has garlic in it, but I don’t like the “roasted garlic” variety that has extra garlic.

        I love garlic in all forms but I have to agree - garlic as a seasoning is very different to garlic as a flavour.

      I kinda hate onion. If I don’t taste it it’s fine but any dish that I’ve tried both with and without I heavily prefer without. Fried onions are the exception for me.

        dragged the whole world out of the Middle Ages

        Doubt it can take credit for that when it denied the very same self determination it claimed was a core value in the territories it administered.

        It was the capital extracted via colonialism and slavery that allowed the first Industrial Revolution to happen. The raw materials came from the colonies and the colonies acted as a consumer market for machine finished goods. A ton of intellectual property were stolen from colonized / occupied peoples, which were then poorly credited once spit out of a machine more efficiently than human hands/artisans (not dissimilar to AI). Sugar refining and cotton dyeing are just two prominent example.

        Essentially this part of the world was the global 1% while everyone else toiled.

        Tl;dr: Colonial powers were the Altman’s, Zukerberg’s and Bezos’ of their time. Let’s not rewrite history in their favor.

          The industrial revolution was the transition from the late-renaissance to the early-modern era.

          It wasn’t the end of the Middle Ages. That came with the invention of the printing press and the neoclassical revival of greco-roman styles of art/architecture/literature/philosophy.

            The argument is even weaker if we go to before the Industrial Revolution. The Renaissance and scientific revolution happened on the shoulders of intellectual property borrowed/taken from global civilizational giants and on the backs of forced / coerced labor in colonial occupied territories. The luxury of having intellectuals in coffee shops pondering how society should be structured could have only happened by exploited labor in the colonies propping up their livelihoods and arguably through contact with pre-civilizational (indigeneous) societies in the Americas.

            Two civilizational giants that come to mind are China and India. Chinese scholars, as you know, invented paper without which the printing press is not possible in the way that we conceive it today. India invented the numerical notation system that allows us to communicate large values and datasets in an efficient manner.

            If not for the work of Brahmagupta, al-Khwarizmi and (most importantly for Europe) Fibonacci this notation system would have never been accepted as the number system we use today was considered to be sacrilege and mystical in Europe for centuries.

            For paper, as with numerical notation, the practice was brought to Europe with advancement by Islamic civilizations. Cai Lun, Zuo Bo and Fan Ye were crucial in the development of paper which spread globally as we perceive it today.

            The colonial narrative, for hundreds of years was that this progress happened in isolation and that was used to justify racism and genocide. I’m glad that in 2026 we are able to unravel such narratives at the seams.

        When you’re actually working out a lot, you need carbs … especially starchy, long-lasting, slow-absorbing carbs like rice.

        And not just to have energy to burn during your workout, either. Rebuilding muscle requires protein to supply the building blocks, yes, but it also requires energy to assemble those building blocks together. Carbs are the healthiest, most efficient way to supply that energy.

        A diet tuned for a rigorous workout regimen needs both protein and carbs.

        Edit: and before anybody takes this the wrong way. No, your 30 minutes per week ‘jogging’ on a treadmill does not count as a ‘rigorous workout regimen’, and three donuts washed down by an XL caramel latte is way too much carbs, and not the best kind of carbs. This is only for people working out intensely, as in athletic training. It’s also with the assumption that you’re mainly working for muscle gain, not weight loss.

          I ran my last marathon on keto and it was fantastic. Five stars, would recommend to anyone. There was just no slowing down and I didn’t even notice the wall around the 20 mile mark. Where glycogen is finally burned out.

          I didn’t find it sustainable as a lifestyle though because I eat in other peoples homes a lot. And it’s just rude to not eat what they put in front of you. Eating out was just strange as well since I would just eat the protein and leave the sides. Or ask to substitute whatever it was with salad.
