Flavorful.

I fucking hate that word.

>umami

is there really a difference between umami and savory?

>>6528853
same. especially when it's used to refer to non jap/azn food.

>>6528831
Gastropub... is this not some sort of stomach remedy in a bottle?

>Moist.

I dislike this word. I dislike it being used in context with food.

>>6528863
it's used to describe a hip bar that also serves food. usually you see it in brooklyn and london etc.

>>6528853
>>6528859
yes.
example:
Rosemary butter would be savory, not umami.
an unseasoned medium rare steak is umami, not savory

>veggies
>mouth feel
>yummy

>>6528872
so umami is like, irony?

haha, that statement's ironic...

>>6528871
You must be kidding.

No seriously, I do believe you. As a result of this thread, I have one more thing on my list of pretentious twattery to avoid.

Mouthgasm.

I work in a gluten-free bakery
95% of our customers are people with celiac disease and crohn's disease
we have a couple of vegans though
>i'm not going to eat 90% of food because of a meme!
vegans are truly scum.
like my boss says, gluten intolerance is a disorder, veganism is a choice.

>gluten free
>foodie
>umami
>new sriracha/chipotle flavored ______
>obscure ethnic fusion restaurants and the stupid abbreviations for them people create

Basically being overly pretentious about food gets me pretty damn salty.

>>6528885
kind of, yes. it's the flavor profile of iron and proteins found normally in meat and mushrooms. MSG enhances this flavor pretty substantially.
savory, on the other hand, refers more generally to a non-sweet, non-piquant flavor derived from many herbs, spices and seasonings.

Many savory things have umami. Many umami things are savory. But they aren't the same thing.

That said, we need an actual english word for it that doesn't sound stupid as fuck, because the loanword is, at best, tryhard bullshit sounding.

>>6528868
I've always wondered why so many people find the word moist unpleasant. It's a widespread phenomena and I've never understood it.

>>6528825
why do not cruel things trigger you?

>Evee-oh-oh

And of course, the worst hipster food word of all...

>Unctuous

It sounds like what a pig would say, if pigs could talk. Anytime anyone says it, I have to restrain myself from striking them.

>>6528907
I don't get bothered about it in general contexts, but when used with food, it somehow conjures up an image of a slice of white bread that's been spat on.

>>6529032
Ev00. Fucking agreed. Someone should drown the twat that thought that one up in a 45 gallon drum of gmo canola.

I want the dumb frog posters to leave.

>>6528992
I want my cheese to only come from the most tortured of cattle

>>6528825
The worst fucking phrases in the history of language come from American governmental agencies.

"Shovel Ready Projects".
"Marsec Level Orange". (A level of maritime security)
"Boutique Fuels".(Gasoline blended for higher altitudes or higher ground temperatures. )

Nothing to do with food, but annoying as a wooden legged busker doing toffee apple impressions.

It's spelled "savoury" you daft cunts.

Please don't use the word trigger to mean "mildly upset" The word trigger is meant to be used in relation to PTSD and severe trauma.

Uh, what's wrong with that? Some people have celiac disease and wheat sensitivity, you know. I agree though that people who cut gluten out (and don't even know what it is) just because are idiots.
