We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Man, I just spent forever sleeping in my car to get rid of all of a nasty migraine. Wandering the aisles of Costco was driving me insane because everything smelled bad. And really bad. Or, more accurately, everything smelled, and that was really bad.

the point of the sandwich is clearly to pick ingredients by their high cost

If your assertion is "clearly," then you're some proof short of a point, I think. I don't think it's clear at all, and in fact contradicts the article, as noted. If it's less clear and more an opinion, then that's different to me.

Nowadays, the supertaster gene appears to affect people's wellbeing in other ways. Take flavonoids for example. These are the healthy antioxidant chemicals found in fruit and vegetables. Flavonoids taste unpleasantly bitter to supertasters, so they often avoid foods which contain high levels of them. On the other hand, they tend to have a lower risk of heart disease, because they also shy away from very fatty, salty and sugary foods.

This, from here sounds precisely like me. Perversely, I suppose, I'll eat brussel sprouts despite them tasting terribly metallic. I just never buy or cook them, and couldn't tell you the last time someone served them to me. I can handle broccoli, but there's a strong sense of duty there.

There's food I will sometimes work past, like brussel sprouts or G&T, for reasons I don't understand. There's food like coffee that I can handle a small teensy subset of. And then there's grapefruit, which I just can't get my tongue around unless it's highly abstracted like Ting.

Pasta has a flavor of its own? What a concept.

Depends on the pasta. Some's just a medium, some has a flavour.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

If I leave it stored in the box, it will taste like cardboard. Ew. Which reminds me, I need to empty the current crop into ziploc.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Food I don't like:peppers, onions(although if they are batter dipped and fried I don't mind them. Then again, you could batter dip and fry almost anything and it would be palatable), liver(unless it's in chopped liver form) and brussel sprouts.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Silly Spidra, thinking she was engaged in an informal chat and not realizing she'd signed up for the debated team.

Seriously people, these are thoughts about a sandwich, not somthing important like somebody's blood relative or a gerund.

Well, that was more akin to a religion.
