Comment on Some people prefer corn for some ungodly reason
fishy@lemmy.today 2 days agoThat article is wild to me. I consider myself a super taster and smeller. The list of foods super taster’s avoid is basically a list of my favorite flavors. Maybe I’m just a slightly above average taster?

Most of the list is true for me. All seltzers are disgusting due to the presence of Bitter 2 which makes them undrinkably gross. Diet soda works extremely well and tastes great. Beer, wine, coffee, and unsweetened tea are pretty awful. Savory deliciousness is magnified and a fantastic steak (medium rare to medium) will knock the soul out of my body. Cheese and spicy food is life and I eat spicier stuff than anyone I know. Onion powder and garlic salt are vastly preferable to the actual full vegetable. Dark chocolate is repulsive. Pineapple is godlike, melons are foul. Cucumber smells so bad I will flee a room to avoid it but a pickle spear is decent. Just a window into how my tastes work.
