I accidentally dumped some cinnamon onto some meat I was browning for chili instead of cumin and it turned out pretty good. Cincinnati chili still sounds grody.

It's honestly not that bad if you use it like a condiment. It's way too cloying for me to eat by itself and that allspice/cloves/cinnamon/cocoa combo tastes like someone dumped grandma's potpourri in a ground beef/tomato slurry.

Mostly for me it's because it's boring, tasteless, and people are inexplicably attached to it when there's better competition. It's the weird love of such a bland dish and the fervent defensiveness towards it that makes it fun to mock.

Also I ate the tin of smoked oysters that I bought way long ago:

They look like slimy alien pods that emerged from some kind of shell, p gross imo


They tasted like tinned sardines without the fishy flavor. It was alright with a little bit of tabasco.

Red/green bean ice cream is just boiled and mashed up beans mixed with sugar and then frozen. You can get the same poo poo in not-frozen form in red bean paste buns and stuff.

I thing bean paste ice cream/desserts must be one of those innocuous things that white people have some kind of irrational aversion to, the other being congee. They're both just minimally processed starch that don't taste of anything really other than whatever flavorings you put into them, but apparently it makes some people vomit?

I don't get it but then I also don't get putting cocoa in meat sauce.

Fine, have some aspic:



4 cups tomato juice
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 bay leaf
1 cup chopped onion and celery
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
dash of Tabasco or other hot sauce, optional
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 packages (1/2 oz.) gelatin
2 tablespoons mild vinegar, like apple cider vinegar
chopped scallions or sliced pitted green olives
for serving: butter lettuce leaves, homemade mayonnaise

For some reason people get super weirded/grossed out by it being a dessert/sweet that is called red bean paste. I had a bun filled with sweet red bean paste and aside from the texture it was pretty much like eating a jelly donut, but when I mentioned that it was good to family members they would get grossed out.
