/ck/ - Food & Cooking

I'm kind of surprised that no one mentioned bitter melon, maybe because it's from Asia.

I can eat everything that exists; anchovies, olives, tomatoes, greek yogurt, dog food, molasses, vegan food, tv dinners, everything listed in this thread and enjoy it... except for the bitter melon.

I don't technically gag when I eat it, but it singes my taste buds to hell. I don't understand how such a bitter fruit/vege even exists, and how people can enjoy eating it. Stir-fried, mixed with scrambled eggs, stuffed with meat and cooked in a soup, nothing makes it better. It actually contaminates everything its cooked with and makes it bitter. Yuck.

Oh, bonus food that should be in here, vegemite. I haven't tried it yet so I can't comment on it but it seems to be hated world wide, even the Austalians hate it.
