Is it possible that if you eat bland disgusting food all your life you start liking it more than properly seasoned and cooked food?

Mine as well - they love tacos but basically can't eat anything but the mildest possible grocery tex mex packet brand with salsa that's really just cold tomatoes because even the suggestion of spice is too much.

You might just suck at cooking just as much as they do.
Making food delicious for other people is harder than just for yourself.
Sometimes you just gotta accept how things are and work with it.

Maybe try using some msg or high glutamate ingredients next time like a dashi stock, soy sauce, marmite, etc.

You can use less salt if you increase glutamate, inosinate, and guanylate levels.

Between this and the packet gravy it sounds like they dislike salt because their doctor said so. They also dont know every packaged food contains tonnes of salt.

>> No.19180118

While I agree that, a cook needs to adapt to the taste bud of the ones he's cooking for, sometimes, it's just frustrating.
You've done the dish more than 10 times for yourself, adjusting the recipe, have over, and under-salted, and tasted all of its bad results, and now you can do it consistently well, salt it just right, the texture - can not be better, all thoughts and small details went into the dish.
And they will go "alright", NOT because they weren't impressed, but because of two reasons:
First (and I think the more important reason), they do not know how bad that particular dish can get. So eating a perfect version of that is no better than eating the bad version.
Second, they don't know all the tribulations and challenges you have gone through to achieve that.
Pat yourself on the back, and be proud. You've done something not many could. Always trust your tongue.

Once you get old you get stuck in your ways. So if they hated X back then, they will hate X now. And there is no changing them.

BUT, whatever the fuck you just posted looks like shit. Which leads me to believe you are a cooklet attempting to pass off incompetence as skill.

What I've learned about women is: because they actually aren't technically 'alive' and have no real sentient awareness, they value things based purely on how much money they cost. So, if you cook something for her, it's essentially free, therefore it is not good or enjoyable. If you took her to a fancy restaurant and paid $200 for literally the exact same food, she would swoon over it. This is why you should never respect a woman's opinion about anything, anon.

Senses fade as we age. We are also creatures of habit. My mother’s idea of a meat loaf is to mush raw chopped vegetables into ground beef, forming some kind of ovular lump, then slamming it into the oven and baking the fuck out of it. No bread crumbs. No egg. No seasoning. No sauce on top. It’s a crumbly gray mess with gray bloodslime pooled beneath it, rendered barely edible with generous amounts of salt and ketchup. My dad would always order meatloaf any chance he got in a restaurant. Soft and saucy. So one day I decided to bake a meatloaf, thinking my mom just didn’t really know how. I kept it very standard, but skipping the powdered onion soup mix (yuck). My dad devoured it. My mom?
>wrinkles nose while pursing her lips, picking at her plate, doing little to conceal her disdain
>”It’s okay.”
I’ll never bake another meatloaf for her. She simply does not like meatloaf. She does other things like fuck up baked beans, too. Ever had dry baked beans with no sweetness or seasoning? That’s another thing my dad would order at a restaurant any chance he got. Now, she was VERY GOOD at baking other things. I tried to steer her in those directions whenever we had company coming or if we were bringing an item to a potluck.

Yeah, it’s fine, if you happen to like raw ground beef. The problem is it’s a terrible burger. The bottom bun was already soaked through, and by the time the customer picks it up it will fall apart and be a nasty mess. Just serve steak tartare with bacon and cheese and bread.

It sounds ridiculous at first but eating is a skill. People train their palate and acquire experience with different dishes, and similar dishes prepared differently/variations with similar products.

People have an easier time accepting this for things like wine, whisky or coffee, but apparently when you eat it's all the same. It's like they go into customer mode and only their basic childlike, ready-made sense of dopamine counts. I mean sure, that's fine, but if you cook you have to understand some people can't eat properly.

i live with a friend and her dad and though hes not a boomer (born just after), he has dog shit taste in food. eats the same skanky food day in, day out. boils vegetables so much you can cut them with a spoon. will leave meat out to spoil on a kitchen counter in front of a window (so the sun hits it) and still eat it, by boiling it for ages until theres no fucking flavour left. THEN he will leave half of it sitting in a pan on the hob until the next day and eat it again. does way too big portions of this shit, not that anyone ever eats his food. claims he never gets sick from the food but he definitely does. shit is shit but his shit is something else, you can smell when someone is sick. and no normal person shits 2-3 times a day. i dont think he even knows shit is meant to be solid anymore

look at your meals:

They might have a retarded (in the clinical sense) palate. Like a literal child's. You know how kids are generally picky eaters and only with time and exposure try and enjoy new things? Some people were raised in deprived culinary environments and never grew beyond the pathetic, stunted taste that this left them with. Spices are the devil's dust to them and anything not already imprinted in their atrophied brains through decades of habituation will have them recoil in disgust.

Raw ground beef can be delicious, you just need the right kind of cut mixture (fat:muscle ratio) and proper texture. Germans perfected that with Mett.
