say savory or mouthwatering, if you're having trouble try describing the flavors of all the dick you swallow


asking a bunch of losers on 4chan how not to sound like a redditor is unironically worse than anything on reddit


putting extra gaps between my sentences because who gives a fuck what website people think you browse

Use the words, unctuous, salivating, exuberant, concentrated, laser like, expressive, gargantuan, mouthfeel, and of course umami, but pronounce it like you-mommy.

Guy Fieri uses that word all the time on DDD. But for some reason, it doesn't sound pretentious when he use it.

Savory is an herb. Summer savory. I grew it last year. Pretty good stuff.

what you do is grow some balls. honestly what the fuck happened to this place? is it just a zoomer thing? sharing knowledge isn't "reddit", dipshit

>> No.18949773

>>18946070
number one hint is not to say umami. the easiest trick is to replace it with the word "savory," or the phrase "savory, like meat or uh mushrooms." but, you shouldn't bring it up more than a couple times in a conversation.
brevity is also key.
if a normie asked me what Lao Gan ma is, I would say "it's a sauce. Chinese. it's got this thing called douchi in it, which is kinda weird but tastes good"
>what does it taste like anon
"kinda like mushrooms or chocolate. and it's full of hot peppers"
