/ck/ - Food & Cooking

>>14512176
I don't eat any kind of sea bugs. Get over it.

It is proper etiquette for the host to ask if there are any foods the guests don't/can't eat.

If you've been asked and didn't say anything, you should eat whatever is given to you.

However, if the host didn't ask, you have the right to refuse.

I generally agree. My sister used to not eat pizza crusts and it would bug me out. That said, I used to hate chocolate as a kid, and even now I don't go out of my way to get it. I was pretty adventurous other than that, the only thing my parents stopped me from getting was cow brain tacos from this taco stand at a rest stop while we were on a road trip.
To this day I haven't had brain, but I'd like to try it.

I only eat food that tastes good
we don't live in Africa after all

>>14512202
Based! Based! I’m going to...HWAAA i’m.... i’m.... COOOOOOOOOOOOMING

>>14512202
>I only eat food that tastes good
turns out most food fits into this category if you prepare it well and try to appreciate it. most tastelets are too infantile to realize that though and are used to being clobbered by simple flavors (sugar)

>>14512193
I made a masoor dal dish tonight and had my roommate turn his nose up to it in favor of Cocoa Pebbles cereal because it was out of his comfort zone. It's lentils, spices, veggies, and rice. Not a complex dish. What's the big deal??

I think pickiness is usually a disorder of some kind in most cases (for truly picky eaters, not a singular item like in your case), so I guess I shouldn't be annoyed by it.

>>14512176
Don't even bother cooking for them. I just ate some braised eels stir fry with me 'ol mammy, and my brother can go hungry if he doesn't want.

>>14512250
I feel like hand waving being a bitch away as a disorder is how they became an adult that refuses a meal made out of crop staples. Their parents didn't make them eat the stuff they didn't immeadiatly like as a kid, and they grew up eating from a small list of bland shit they've been eating for their entire lives. I'm pretty on the spectrum, but I don't think I could see myself ever refusing a meal from a host or cohabitant unless they've demonstrated that they suck at cooking.

Your meal sounds tasty, anon.

>>14512176
I'm thinking of having a talk with my niece and explaining to her that its rude to ask what's in a dish you've been served before you try it.

I mean, that's not actually a thing I've heard in relation to good manners, but I think its true anyway.
After all, when you ask what's in something after you try it, you're seeking explanation/confirmation of the opinion you're forming (good or bad).
When you ask what's in a dish BEFORE you try it, it implies that you'll refuse to eat it depending on the answer (which is absolutely fucking true).

>>14512323
>its rude to ask what's in a dish you've been served before you try it.
what if im allergic to certain ingredients in the food

>>14512323
Is she allergic to anything?

>>14512332
>>14512335
Yeah, that occured to me as an exception, but I didn't think to type it just now.

In any event, this is the case of my niece. I'd know about her allergies if she had any.

>>14512176
>puts plate of bugs in front of your faggot face
Come on, OP. You're not a picky eater, right? You can eat the bugs, it's just food after all. Or are you a little baby? Stop making these faggot ass threads you little faggot ass autistic child.

>>14512350
If you won't even TRY the bugs, then yes, you're a picky eater.

OP, do you have anyone at all in your life you could talk to about this instead of making another shitty thread?

>>14512355
No one asked you, you disgusting third world trash.

I live in a rich country I'll eat whatever I want, keep seething about it

But you're being socially picky and being a faggot to people who aren't 100% perfect and to your liking, you self-blind fucking faggot hypocrite

>>14512363
>Fails to understand the adventurous nature inerrant to the cooking and eating of food.
You are worse than third-world trash.

You're a tastelet.

>>14512377
How about you go eat some cow shit, pajeet?

>>14512385
>You would eat animals besides birds and mammals
>THAT MUST MEAN YOU EAT SHIT!
Its no wonder you're a picky eater when you're this much of a child.

You're not actually (physically) an adult are you?
That'd be embarrassing.

Why seethe so hard? They're the ones missing out, and no one is forcing you to cook food for them.
If your ego is threatened by someone not wanting to eat your food, get over it and stop being so insecure you little baby. If this happens to you a lot maybe your food is disgusting

>>14512401
There's a disease that these people have, it's called autism.

>>14512371
>you don't like cowards with so pathetic a backbone that they cannot try new foods!
>hypocrite! you are therefore the same as me, because you do not tolerate my stinky diaper and baby sensibilities!

cry more, little baby

>>14512401
because these people exist due to coddling. they need to be bullied so they can grow

Glad i stopped being picky and learned to vore anything infront of me life became easier

>>14512176
Past a certain age I think being a picky-eater is really childish and unattractive

>>14512401
If your guest is under no obligation to eat your food, then the cook is under no obligation to act like its not an insult.

Oh, another reason picky eaters are rude and shitty:

If I invite somebody to my house for dinner, there's an obvious implication that they're going to EAT dinner, and I will have spent time and money preparing their serving.

The time to say that you're not going to eat is BEFORE the host has gone to the trouble.

Its one thing to not eat something because it looks nasty, think something like lobster. You wouldnt eat some random sea creature from the oceans depths that looked like it was involved in a nuclear bomb drop.

Then you have people who dont like the taste of something.

Im a picky eater but its mostly taste. The other day I had food with my brother in law at their home. He cooked and it tasted sweet as hell. I would rather eat something bland and unsalted than something sweet.

Ive lived long enough and I know what my taste buds like and what they dont. I dont drink alcohol either, shit tastes bitter to me.

>>14512369
>ill eat whatever
>restricts self to 2 animals, 3 tubers and a type of grass

>>14512332
You ask specifically if the thing(s) you're allergic to is in it, not the ingredients in general.

>>14512399
You're not good at shit talking. I can tell you believe that you are, but alas no.

>>14512472
>tfw you get so btfo and butthurt that all you can do is pathetically whimper, "Y-y-you didn't hurt my feeling!"
Okay. Have a nice day then.

>>14512481
No I thought since you're autistic it would be helpful to point out, not for your own sake but those who have to read your posts, that the thing you suppose you have an ability for you actually don't.

>>14512447
It's not like them shoving the food down their pie-hole actually brings any of that money back. Objectively it's simply not hurting you, in fact you gain extra leftovers.
I'd agree it's polite to warn ahead of time, sure. If they're impolite about it, or if they get grumpy because they're hungry or complain about not getting food then sure, they're in the wrong. Otherwise, you should get over your issues.

>>14512428
As a host your goal is to help people have a good time, not burden everyone with your insecurities. I suppose this behavior isn't surprising for a woman but if you're a man it's just shameful

>>14512503
>a-a-autism
lol tears

>>14512508
>As a host your goal is to help people have a good time, not burden everyone with your insecurities.

weird, you twisted the insecurity of the guest onto the host. the guest should be receptive to a good time and not make everyone's lives more difficult because they refuse to grow up

>>14512508
>shoving the food down their pie-hole actually brings any of that money back.
Insults notwithstanding, this is literally the logic of an autistic person.

If I wasn't getting some kind of personal satisfaction from cooking for guests and having them enjoy it, then I'd fucking order something and trade money for hassle.

The fact that you can't grasp this is why other social concepts like, "Insulting your host" are lost on you.

>not burden everyone with your insecurities
I have no doubt that you've never acted as a host, lacking in all social grace as you are.

That being said, a host is not a servant, and the fact that you think of us that way is why you don't get invited back.

>>14512466
Most people aren't very good at knowing the ingredients in everything they use, so it's understandable that someone with a serious allergy would be more cautious. It's their health on the line, after all.
Normally I'd say that if they're unsure they should just skip the food, but you know that would set off psychos like OP who get upset if everyone doesn't eat all their sloppa

>>14512549
>social concept
you're cooking because you have a subconscious drive to impress other humans, not because you like it. The "insult" that keeps you up at night is your failure to do so.

>>14512561
>it's understandable that someone with a serious allergy would be more cautious.
What this would mean in practice is that somebody with a peanut allergy would ask if a dish included "nuts" because of their awareness of the little label that warns of cross-contamination during nut production.

They'd still ask, "Does this have X in it?", not "What's in this?" The latter which can lead to a sizable list depending on the recipe.

>>14512568
If that was true, I wouldn't cook for myself.

Geeze, its amazing the stupid shit that you say when you convince yourself that you can read minds.

Also, the fact that you're using your complete lack of social motivation as a virtue signal is reinforcing my notion that you legitimately have autism.
If I'm correct, maybe you should stop being so judgmental about social situations that you can't understand.

>>14512582
Is this entire thread you trolling or are you actually a half wit?

>>14512585
Says the person doing psychoanalysis on 4chan?

>>14512549
Is the only reason you want them around to have them validate you by consuming your food? Maybe they just like your company if they care enough to try to find a way to politely decline your sloppa. Seems unlikely at this point but you never know. In that case your solution is simple, just don't invite anyone unless you know they'll eat anything. Making a scene about it is still fucking retarded though.

Also, please don't try to talk about social grace after doing so much autistic whining on 4chan of all places.

>>14512176
Not everyone is a fat pig consoomer like you. Some people are careful about what they put into their bodies.

>>14512599
>Is the only reason you want them around to have them validate you by consuming your food?
No. You seem to be the only person in this thread who is that twisted inside.

Normal people (what you might call "neuro-typicals") can appreciate their friends, pay and work to feed them when hosting, and be appreciated in turn without the whole affair transforming into some kind of weird tit-for-tat gratification exchange.

It really is disturbing how you make such wholesome concepts sound dirty.

>>14512623
Have you been tested for autism at all?

>>14512641
>tfw I've literally been arguing the basic points of good manners, which you mysteriously cannot grasp
Again, insults aside, your logic is literally what autism is (Asperger's, specifically)

>>14512623
>Normal people (what you might call "neuro-typicals") can appreciate their friends, pay and work to feed them when hosting, and be appreciated in turn
The thing is, when normal well-adjusted people get together, everyone is satisfied and thus no one comes to repeatedly post seethe and cope all over a mongolian cooking forum. Perhaps the existence of this thread is hinting at something. That said I bet on BPD over autism

>>14512648
That's impossible, I'm sure my handler would have mentioned that by now.

>>14512652
All this seethe and cope you're observing is coming from yourself.

Look, its an objective fact that almost all picky eaters grow out of it before adulthood.
For those that don't, it should be expected that a tiny minority would be met with judgement from normal people.

Protip: I used to have a friend who was an adult picky eater, but he'd still TRY something if you wanted him to taste it.
That's how to not be rude and close-minded.

>>14512691
Did you stop being friends with him because he insulted you by not acting the exact way you wanted him too by any chance?

>>14512700
That's another shot in the dark missed.

Also kinda pathetic how you have to frame my expectations in the most negative way possible.

Did your mom try to teach you manners and it scarred you for life?

>>14512704
It's not a shot in the dark, the BPD seemed like a good lead. What happened between the two of you?

>>14512716
Given your clear inclination to take the tiniest bit of information and transform it into a twisted accusation, I'm not answering your questions.
You're a fucking cancerous human being.

TL;DR None of your business, you asshole.

>>14512728
Twisted accusation? Maybe you should harden up a bit. Seems like you're a highly sensitive person, and I mean that.

If this was more of a butt buddy scenario and you just thought "friend" seemed like it would be easier to say then fair enough. My bad, let sleeping dogs lie.

>>14512741
>Maybe you should harden up a bit
That's why I'm telling you to fuck off.

I'm super open with people, even on this site, but whether its malice or autistic anti-charisma, I have no desire to subject myself to your nonsense.

>>14512751
I'm sure you're very open with many fine gentlemen who don't insult you, and swallow everything you give them.

>>14512323
My friend's son does this. He's not allergic to anything, the cunt just wants to know if there's bell pepper/onion/whatever else he decided he doesn't like today so he can immediately decide to not eat the meal.

My family shouldn't exist according to Darwin.
>brother doesn't eat eggs, he throws up. Also claims to be lactose intolerant

>mother will not touch soya products

>step-brother who won't eat vegetables
>literal autistic cousin who won't eat much except white bread, tomato sauce and processed meat
>half drink only soda/beer/wine

If I want to make a fucking pasta I have to cook three kinds of pasta and two kinds of passata
The only thing they agree on is cheese(hes even Mr. lactose)
I swear I'm poisoning them

Whatever if picky eaters dont want to eat I just take their food and eat it myself. More for me and now they have nothing to bitch about.

Hahaha, no. Refusing hospitality is always rude.

>>14512176
Anon, if you are trying to serve me raw meat or chicken, I will not eat it. I am not about to get e-coli and salmonella cause you are too shitty of a cook and throwing a tantrum.

Grow the fuck up and also learn to cook food that isn't disgusting.

>>14512323
Ever heard of deadly nut allergies and shit like that?
It's not impolite to ask what is in a dish, it's normal and perfectly appropriate.

>>14513587
BPD?

>>14513565
It's true.
Being a host is a sacred task, it's up to you whether you invite some sonofabitch for dinner, but if you do you have to carry it

>>14513625
Hospitality is sacred, sure, but it goes both ways. Refusing hospitality or complaining about the good will of others is rude as hell.
Never look a gift horse in the mouth.

>>14513643
>YOU HAVE TO EAT ALL THE EGGS
Just take it as a pointer that your food is probably shit.
Anyway, you are the one being rude for not taking no for an answer.

>>14513549
Your mother sounds high test.

>>14513655
Saying no in the first place is rude.

>>14513549

jesus how fucking horrifying and enraging

i literally hate picky eaters. As is if their gut and palate are so precious. Fuck im getting triggered by past memories of cooking something delicious only for a picky retard to pick it apart in front of me. Absolutely cancer.

Clearly not as delicious as you thought it was.

>>14513737

>>14512176
No.
I'd rather skip a meal than eat something I know I don't like. I don't feel angry or slighted in any way if you've cooked something I don't eat, the only one is you who's turbomad i don't want to eat your food.

>>14512176

>>14512176
You are limited in this life to how many meals you will have. Why waste those times on something that doesnt make you happy. I am not saying eat like a king every meal, eat humble meals, but make it out of things you enjoy.

>>14515226
I wouldn't invite that person out to eat or over for a meal since I'd have to put extra effort into making sure there's something they will eat. Picky eaters tend to be little bitches when they aren't specifically accommodated. It's not worth the hassle. Personality flaws abound.

I haven't eaten a meal with someone in 6 years

>>14512189
Imagine not eating sea bugs dried out in burlap sacks tied up in trees. Succulent crunch. Picky shits.

>>14515158
When you get called a faggot you should probably not reply by saying the person is a picky eater.

You are betraying an outlook that is flawed at its very fundament. You are yourself a waste of limited space who can be safely discarded from the world.

here we see a prime example of a psychopath.

This person has no empathy and does not comprehend the feelings of others. then he goes on a shit board a spews his impotent rage like the feeble attempts of his dad to impregnate his mother. Also I bet if questioned there is food that OP will not eat thus he is a picky eater as well.

I thought I was a picky eater until I was a teenager, then I realized my mom just can't fucking cook.
I'll try pretty much anything if the person cooking it actually puts effort into it and knows what they're dealing with. If you suck at cooking and give me garbage, I'm not going to eat it.

>>14512189
>It is proper etiquette for the host to ask if there are any foods the guests don't/can't eat.
This.

How many adults are actually picky eaters? It seems really rare in my experience. If someone declines a dish it's almost always either a dietary reason (allergy / religious / vegan etc) or it's some exotic nasty fermented "acquired taste" where you can't really blame them.

Either OP is always hanging out with autists for some reason (hmm...) or their cooking must be really disgusting. I feel for the friends who're probably choking down under/overcooked slop to avoid her tantrums

most of the time yes but back when I was a kid one of my friends lived in a house where nobody could cook.
his mom managed to fuck up hotdogs for gods sake, so whenever I was over I would just bring some chips/snacks with me and claim to not be hungry when everyone else went to eat dinner.

>>14513587
You not sucking my cock is refusing my hospitality.

>>14516000
honestly, if you are over 14 and are a picky eater you are retarded.

when i was a kid i used to be a picky eater. then i grew the fuck up and realized that sometimes i have to eat something even when it isn't 100% my favorite food.

>>14512176
at least with kids, there's a chance they'll grow out of it.
Nothing's sadder than watching an old boomer bitch about common ingredients on their sandwich, and throw tantrums at restaurants because their laundry list of exceptions wasn't followed to the t

>>14516000
a lot of fat fucks "don't eat vegetables," and a lot of boomers bitch and moan endlessly about spices, seasonings, mayo, garlic and onions.

then of course there's vegans/vegetarians, who 90% of the time only started because they had an icky piece of meat once. Too bad, tough shit, guess you can't use chicken broth in any of your meals. Because if real food allergies weren't bad enough, now you have some neurotic bitch telling you not to cross contaminate their food with meat.

>>14516000
alternative scenario: you have your restaurant choices irrationally limited by people you either have to engage with (family), or choose to.

>>14512176
Sometimes I imagine picky eaters getting jigsaw trapped, but instead of doing horrible things to save their lives, they have to eat food that they dislike. I would like to watch as they gag while bringing the food to their lips, screaming as the clock ticks down to their death, but yet still they can't force themselves to go outside of their culinary comfort zone.

I was allways a pretty picky eater, don't really know why, but I've tried to grow out of it and have succeeded to some extend, though I still have a long way to go. There isn't any enjoyment in being a picker eater since for me at least I would feel I'll, gag or even go as far as vomiting a bit. Also you can't neglect the social consequences of being a picker eater, as I would often have to choose between not eating or gagging through the whole meal. Personally I never had a problem with trying new foods, but if they made me feel sick I would have a difficult time trying to justify continuing eating that food. As I've said I've become more tolerant to more and more food, as I have started cooking my own meals over the years, knowing which ingredients go into the dish and noth being overwhelmed by the taste. But also as often I've discovered that many people are just shit at cooking and make, I would say for the most part objectively disgusting food. Though the one thing I have trouble dealing with in a quite phobic irrational sense is cheese in pure and large portions. I can deal with pizza if there isn't to much or strong tasting cheese and for the most part I can also enjoy a burger with a slice of cheese allthough that was also acquired through the years. One way I can pehaps explain my phobia of cheese is that I can vaguely remember opening up a package of cheese as a young child, I must have been three or four years old, eating and enjoying said cheese, but then out of nowhere someone screamed at me angrily that I should stop and I think since then my relation with cheese has never been the same. Being a picker eater definetly has a lot to do with how you are being raised and parents play a large part which they shouldn't ignore and not just blame the child for having bad manners, they should take responsibilty. Therefore whenever, if ever I have children I'll try to do what my parents couldnt and eleviate my children from the burden that is being a picky eater

why would you have put beans in it? that's like putting nuts in cookies, you immediately alienate half the people who might eat it.

leave beans out of chili (they don't belong) leave nuts out of cookies for the same reason.

you are a bad person.

>>14512350
I'll eat the entire fucking thing if the first bite is delicious. But the first bite is what makes me a man and you a bitch

Anyone who claims they aren't picky has to eat this entire thing, no puking or beverages allowed.

>>14512176
The only thing I will not eat is cooked yellow or white onion, unless its cooked to the point of being caramelized. I do not care if it makes me seem picky, gagging or vomiting upon biting into it is a lot more rude. Raw white and any kind of purple onion is normally fine tho.

>>14516492
It's better to go all beans and leave out the meat. Then everyone can eat it!

>>14516492

>>14516583
You’re probably eating way more cooked onions than you think. Cooked onions are used in pretty much every red and brown sauce, stew, curry, stir fry, and many other types of food.

Is it a texture thing?

>>14516841
Texture fags are such fucking fags.

I don't really get picky eaters, most things I have consumed were delicious. Only on presentation have I been grossed out to the point of nausea.
I went to a lobster buffet for my GF birthday. They give you whole cooked lobsters and you have to shell it yourself.
I was looking at a bug and the rest of the memorabilia on the wall started to look back at me.
This is not to say I don't enjoy lobster or shellfish in general, just the whole lobster presentation is something I would like to avoid in the future.

Only absolute autists get legitimately triggered over beans in chili.

Not even gonna read OP nor the hundreds of defenses itt, but fuck picky eaters. You're a bunch of spoiled kids.

>>14512176
There's no bad tastes just different. Imagine if you had a friend who would scream and cry when they saw a particular color. That's how most people view picky eaters.

>>14512176
I want to feel good during and after I ate my meal.

Also, I want to survive you ignorant, uneducated, sheltered moronic piece of shit. You're a disgrace to all hosts and chefs in the world. Remove yourself.

It was also a case of him not getting his way. He told me a story about how he didn't want to eat his dinner so he got sent to bed and later that night his brought him some biscuits (cookies for you Americlaps). Then he went on to say how he did it another time and this time he didn't get anything. He would always sulk if people didn't cater to his childish junk food pallette.

Picky eaters suck.
Honestly, don't even give them the courtesy of correcting their behavior. Let them wonder why they're malnourished and not invited anywhere.

>>14515710
Go back to plebbit you degenerate

>>14516492
The nuts argument is moot because unlike beans, some people are deathly allergic to a possible smidgen of tree nuts. You're an absolute child if you freak over beans, and I say this as someone who prefers not to eat them much.

>>14516841
It is a texture thing. And I know that, but if they are totally unnoticeable, especially if they are blended in I don't really mind them at all. Or if they are minced really finely and dissolve. In all of my home cooking, except for really caramelized yellow/brown onion I use purple. But the bite of a slightly crunchy, soggy yellow or white onion makes me instantly gag.
>>14516885
This is true, I am actually autistic.

>>14516384
I like how you describe your own behavior as if it is healthy

>>14517371
Oh fuck off. He sulks and moans when he doesn't get his own way. He's a spoiled child and always acts that way. I cooked the cunt dinner and he had a cry because he "doesn't like bean's". It was literally too late, they were in there.

>I made a masoor dal dish tonight and had my roommate turn his nose up to it in favor of Cocoa Pebbles cereal because it was out of his comfort zone.
fuck me that reminds me of the dichotomy between my two roommates. one of my roommates would try all the indian/pakistani dishes i made happily and give his honest opinion on them while the other was a fucking sheltered manchild who still had an asthma inhaler warhammer action figures. so you can't be surprised that my manchild roomie would avoid having anything with turmeric or chilis in it. he turned down channa masala and bature bread for stouffers lasagna one time for dinner

>>14512447
>The time to say that you're not going to eat is BEFORE the host has gone to the trouble.
surely no one you know is retarded enough to not plan to eat when you invite them for dinner.....

people who bitch about picky eaters are also people who would probably lose their shit over someone serving them a well done steak

I dated a few girls in college. Two of them refused to eat: tomatoes, bell peppers, onions, and lettuce.
Only mode of of onions one of them would like were "onion rings". holy SHIT i realized how childish it was for grown ass 20-21 year olds to act like this with food, such basic foods too. The base of any good curry uses onion and these pathetic babies avoided that. Honestly its what i get for dating thick (fat) women

>>14517421
>Honestly its what i get for dating thick (fat) women
I notice that is a trend among picky eaters. Nearly every single one that I've met tend to be either obese or bordering on it.

>>14517432
Its just making me upset to think that i actually dated women who didn't have raw tomatoes. motherFUCK why. and the onions. i made butter chicken curry that everyone but my girlfriend in the house liked. why? because there are a lot of fried onions you cook down before you put in the curry. not raw onions with a sharp taste, just the fucking base onions for the curry. fucking stupid bitch used the $1 taco seasoning packets too for flavor all the time in the tacos rather than just making her own seasoning even with all the ingredients on there and would actually parade her shitty amerishart homemade mission tortilla tacos on Instagram

>>14512176
Agreed, vegans are so annoying.

Rare, medium rare, medium, well done. If it's a good cut of meat any doneness is edible.

If you're unwilling/unable to eat a balanced diet it fucks with your weight. They also tend to be skinnier.

>>14512176
I can eat most things, but I also have unironic autism and get legitimately nauseated by certain textures. Like, I'll still do my best to eat them (becuase usually i like the taste regardless), but you're going to hear me audibly gag like a cat coughing up a hairball if you give me certain stuff.
That, and shrimp gives me the shits.

I dislike picky eaters, but I can give a theory of why. When I was a child my parents made a big deal out of me trying new foods. Everytime something new was presented they said "atleast try it". I always tried it and I ended up learning a lot about food and appreciating different flavours. Its not like I loved everything, there were plenty of things I disliked, but I was told that its ok to not like things as long as you base your opinion on having tried it atleast once.
Fastforward through an entire childhood where you have tried new things and learned a lot. You're in uni or something cooking a meal for your new roommates. You set the table, pour the wine and serve everyone at the table. Everyone except one person digs in, and you notice.
>Anything wrong with the food? you ask
>I don't like onions, anon
>Oh, well you can scoop them to the side if you dont like them
>Yeah...
That person proceeds to not touch their food all evening, not appreciating the effort you put in to make a nice dinner. Thats when you realize, they never put in the effort to taste new things, they just decided that they didn't like something at the age of 6 and now thats going to haunt the rest of their lives. Its just lazy. You put in the effort at a young age and they didn't and its just a shame. Its just frustrating, what a waste. Challenge yourself, try new things. You might like onions now, you might have grown out of it. I didn't like lasagna all my childhood and I got so much shit for it, and when I grew older I decided to try it again, realizing that my younger self might not have been the genius foodie I thought I was. Lasagna is pretty good now. Just try it, if you still dont like it, fair enough, but atleast try it.

>>14516544
I'd try it so that I could at least say "I know this particular loaf of squashed blood suckers is not to my liking, thank you very much". It would be a sin to turn away hospitality after all.

>>14512176
maybe youre just a bad cook you cant adapt to their taste

>>14517619
Well not everyone is blessed with loving parents who are good cooks anon. Some of us were forced to eat our parents sloppa shit and screamed at or beaten until we ate it all, even to the point of vomiting. This creates a lifelong food aversion that's hard af to get over. My mom is a horrible cook and did this to me and I only started getting over it in my 20s. I'll try most things now and routinely eat stuff that used to make me gag.

>>14517467

exactly, bless ur braincells

>>14517498
It's annoying because my nephew is 13 now and he's still just as picky as when he was like 6 years old. He still won't eat anything outside of 8 or 9 different things and it's all junk food. He has been willing to try some of the things I cook now (he pretends to like it when I can tell that he doesn't) so maybe it's something that he'll grow out of. He even knows that he's a picky eater. Sadly, he's also getting pretty fat and I worry that kids might start fucking with him over his weight.

>>14517668
I'm going to find you and I'm going to beat you for every piece of food you rejected. You deserved every strike and more. You deserved to have that vomit shoveled back down your throat. You had an opportunity to learn each time, but were too self-absorbed to figure it out. You are a waste of flesh.

>>14517668
I'm >>14517709 here. It's weird because my nephew experienced the complete opposite of that. He is basically my sister's boss and since he has demanded nothing but Mcdonalds chicken nuggets, ramen noodles, and cheese pizza for his entire life that's all that he knows how to eat. During thanksgiving, he just stares at everything then asks to go to Mcdonalds after everyone is done eating.

>>14517709

theres a biological reason for being a picky eater and it goes away over time, children are more prone to the whole evolutionary shit of not eating certain things for protection from poisonous berries and whatever else flora.

the best way to get over it is time and slow introduction via not the certain ingredient a major player. eg; onion powder in place of diced onion in very simple soups or stews.

>>14517741

so thats your sister being an idiot for not knowing better, not his fault. dont hold it against him for his parents.

>>14517754

via not making, even

>>14517754
>dont hold it against him for his parents.
I don't hold it against him at all. I just tell him that when he gets older, certain foods that he is currently adverse to might be something that he loves to eat later in life. What I told him must be setting in because during the last few months, he has been willing to try literally everything that I cook. I finally converted him over to things like teriyaki chicken, steak, and chili. It sounds simple but it's a huge milestone since previously he has only lived off of cookies, cheese pizza, ramen, tendies, and hamburgers with nothing at all on it but two buns.

>>14517767

keep at it bud, least he's got someone looking out for him

>>14517741
>During thanksgiving, he just stares at everything then asks to go to Mcdonalds after everyone is done eating.
What a shame, poor kid. Honestly, just ban fastfood in general. Teach kids that fastfood should always be a last resort solution to being hungry. The only times I eat fastfood anymore is if I'm drunk or hungover.

>>14517767
Good job, keep it up. Set him on the right path, don't let him become a tendie monster.

>>14517732
Yeah right faggot, if you tried my moms cooking you'd puke too.

>>14517784
>>14517776
I care about him because I don't have any kids of my own and he's a lot like me (interested in computers, vidya, etc). I just don't want him to turn out like this guy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_PDcZqClhw&t
Even friends his own age fuck with him about his preferences which is how he started to realize that he's needlessly picky.

You don't have to do anything! Cook one dish, and if the picky little faggots don't want it then they can stay hungry. Don't fucking enable these spoiled brats.

>>14512176
Nope. Only whole plant foods for me. Oil fills me with dissatisfaction. I get to a point where I can't stomach more while still being hungry, because it lacks the nutrients I hunger for. I will not suffer through another restaurant meal. You can do what you want with that injera platter while I enjoy my sludgy coffee.

>entire board full of people trying to tell you what to eat and when to eat it
No thanks, also fuck yourselves in the ass with a rake. The fucking nerve

This is one of the hidden secrets to life being destroyed by our government: one of the great “cure-alls” to children’s autistic behavior has always been and will always be bullying. Many unironically retarded behaviors (picky eating, being a social outcast, picking your nose, pooping/peeing yourself, wearing diapers, and so many more) are ultimately corrected not by parents buy by fellow schoolchildren. The grand push to eliminate bullying from schools is in order to push for more autistic, lonely, and ultimately weaker citizens.

>>14512176
I know how you feel OP. All of my friends are picky eaters and as a cook it drives me insane.
>get new job at fancy steak and seafood restaurant after being unemployed for years
>good job, solid pay, staff are nice
>chef is dutch and trained all across europe, absurdly talented with lots of creative ideas, teaches me plenty of new skills
>ask friend out with his gf and my mother for a meal where I work
>he has plenty of money but just orders french fries and refuses to try anything else
I know that might sound petty but it really bummed me out. I don't expect him to like everything, I just wanted him to move out of his comfort zone once for something I cared about.

>>14521951
It's normal for immature children to have very specific and narrow tastes if they get the choice. Meanwhile most of them broaden their tastes significantly once they become an adult. It's certainly linked to maturity. Not getting upset by variations in texture, crunchyness, smell and taste. If nothing else, the ability to stomach it those few times it occurs out of your control to not be a god damn bother to enforce a snowflake attitude unless it literally damages your body.

>>14518124
At least put some effort in when you bait
If you go around telling people what to eat or how to eat it you have one job which is to fuck yourself in the ass with a rake

>>14512193
some pizza crust sucks. If it's good pizza then yeah eat the crust but papa johns dominos? don't even bother

If you're talking about people who refuse to eat something new without legitimate reasons like allergies, religious taboos, or safety concerns, then yes, it's childish and shows a poor upbringing.
If you're talking about people who refuse to eat something "normal" they know they don't like, it's a little different. If someone invited you over for dinner, you should eat a token amount and make some excuse to beg off if possible. If it's impossible to get away with some excuse and the food is really going to make you sick, I don't think you should have to eat it though. As long as you don't blame the host for your own weakness, it's an unfortunate situation that's nobody's fault.
Now, if you're an extremely picky eater with a long list of foods you won't eat, there's probably something wrong with you that you should at least be aware of and try to fix. You see a lot of actual autism in this thread. I don't know if that's fixable but at least make people aware before they invite you over for dinner.

>>14523415
I don't actively dislike pizza crust but generally don't eat it because I'm never hungry enough to eat the whole thing and I'd rather fill up on the actual pizza part

>>14512202
Most people that say this have never tried the thing they are refusing to eat.
There's a difference between eating something you don't like and only eating the same things

>>14517619

I used to be one of those onion hating faggots until I an anon on /ck/ calling me a faggot for hating onions. He said that onions are on everything and only dumbass children chose to hate them.

Later that week I ordered a burger and thought about that anon. I usually ordered burgers without onions but that day I decided to give onions a try. Turns out I was just being a childish faggot and just needed to give the taste an honest try.

Turns out most of the stuff I hated as a child I grew out of, except for relish. I hate that shit.

Weren't you guys raised to:
>Always say thank you for the meal?
>Always say something nice about the meal?
If you are a guest and not allergic to the food infront of you, you eat.

Nice cope again. I’m not the same anon you originally replied to and I have a terrible relationship with my mother. I still can eat whatever I’m being served because I have sex and am past the age of 25
