    Most people got fixated on food.
    You can get some spicy sweet and sour sauces too.

    1. I don't like cooked carrots. Add raisins, currants, prunes and sultanas in any way, shape or form. I'll eat them if I have to, but I absolutely loathe the taste of them.

    2. Any type of command/order. If you ask me nicely and it's not an unreasonable request I'll usually agree. If you start ordering me around or demanding anything I'll instantly tell you to fuck right off. I really value my autonomy, so it's a huge dealbreaker for me if you disrespect it.

    3. People who don't put in effort/half-ass things and promptly whine when they didn't get the result they hoped for. Hope is for suckers. Do the work if you want the reward. Or don't, but don't come talk to me about it. You're wasting my time.

    4. Anyone for any reason who demands special treatment in the guise of equality. Equality is equal opportunity for all and equal rewards for equal work completed. It doesn't mean you get to dictate to me how I should live or that I'll let you figuratively step on my head in order to be above me. In fact, I'm likely to throw you off the proverbial cliff and watch you fall into the abyss without blinking an eye.

    5. Talking shit when you are physically weak and/or can't back it up. Too many people have become way too comfortable insulting people without getting a punch in the face. Or they get one and they're surprised. What were you expecting? A hug? A pat on the back? Don't say/do mean shit unless you're prepared to suffer the consequences.

    I don't like fruit salads, fruit on chocolate, fruit on a cinnamon roll.

    I like raisins... I love strawberry jam and blueberry jam >.>

    That sounds horrific, lmao

    Sweet and sour chicken or pork is a staple dish whenever I get food from Chinese takeaway, and sometimes it has big chunks of pineapple

    It looks like this:

    i like most food as long as its made really well esp savory food.

    deal breakers honestly if they are a basic bitch, trend follower, cant think for themselves, extremely political doesn't matter the spectrum, extremely religious no matter the religion, isnt hygienic, is more boring than watching paint dry, cant handle banter, cant take dark humor

    I used to hate that dish. I didn't like how gluggy, gooey, thick and overly sweet the sauce was. Then a friend's mum made it for me and she made the sauce from scratch. It was like the difference between night and day. I rarely come across one that's made the way I like, but when I do it's a genuine pleasure.

    Hummm I could eat it depending on how well it is 'integrated' into the food.

    Fun fact: A fast food chain in my country has an "aloha" burger. 1 or 2 fat ass slices of pineapple in the burger - it's sweet and savory.

    Wonder if that burger counts as good to eat for you other cooked-fruit haters?

    I don't hate cooked fruit but I tend to avoid anything with cooked pineapple in it. It magnifies the sweetness of the pineapple tenfold to the point I can barely taste anything else. I do like fresh pineapple though.

    It's okay as long as they didn't cook the pineapple.
    Warmed up pineapple is better than actually cooked.

    Between the real Disney+ and a hypothetical Fox media streaming service*, I would go with the hypothetical one easily.

    *In this hypothetical, the many movies Fox lost in the 1937 Fox vault fire never got lost as the vault fire never happened. This streaming service would every Fox film digitized, including remasters/restorations of the earliest silent ones. Also, in this scenario, Fox got both Marvel and Lucasfilm at least 15.5 years ago. Furthermore, the Fox News Channel never existed and there would be a lot less Fox business and sports channels. The business channel and sports would be lumped together in a separate streaming service

    Whenever I was sick, my nanny used to cut out the core of a nashi pear, add rock sugar, and then steam it. It was disgusting.

    I need to introduce you to fedora man.

    Eat your turkish delight.

    Not this one. He reads brony fanfiction on his laptop around campus. I'm always surprised by his lack of shame.
