im interested to find out about people culinary mishaps. Or perhaps be enlightened about that food I like and the correct or even better way to enjoy it.
Tell me and others about food you’ve eaten a specific way and discovered later in life it’s wrong or that there’s a better way.
Two examples from me:
I’ve always loved wheetabix as a cereal. I’m plenty of years old and always eaten it a certain way. Ice cold milk little sugar. Eat it quick whilst the biscuit is still hard. Thought this was perfect. However only a few weeks ago due to a busy life I let my wheetabix go soggy. I moshed it up and resigned myself to an unsatisfactory breakfast. Silly me! It’s opened my eyes. It’s the best. Now I mosh it up purposefully stir in the sugar and add more milk. I feel like a new man!
Second, I used to date (and nearly married) a girl who told me she was really good with chopsticks. She could easily pick up a pea.. I was impressed with this feat of dexterity as I simply cannot use chopstick. Gleefully she booked us a Chinese meal evidently keen to impress me with her chopsticky greatness. All prepared and a little excited the moment came. Stab! Chopstick through the middle of a large piece of chicken! Stab there goes a large vegetable. STAB! See I told you I could get the pea. She was a little surprised when I asked her to look around the room and see how others used the sticks.
Let me know other great ways to eat food or fails to make you cringe.
