I love olives so much that whenever someone says they can't stand them my brain immediately goes "oh no poor thing they can't enjoy tasty things must be brain problems so sad"

My goondolences to all you brokebrains, I hope you can live a full happy life in spite of your horrible disability.

Olives are good.

I don't particularly like them on pizza tho. When I get a martini I really just want a glass of like 20 olives covered in gin.

With all this disagreement about olives, let's discuss a food that 100% of people love: cilantro

I used to not like olives by themselves until I found a turkish grocery store that has a deli counter with nothing but a huge variety of olives in it. Now I spend 12 hours a day cramming almond-filled green olives into my foodhole.

That's the seed.

Coriander and cilantro have different flavors and different uses, so having two different names makes sense. Like mace and nutmeg.

Today I learned what the spice Mace is made of. I already knew it's not pepper spray that you apply directly to food.

Yes tiggum I'm thinking of you, we've only posted in these threads for like 4 years now or so and posted in the newspaper comic thread since 2008 together. Your sandwich sounds crazy but I bet if someone was like "I'd add mustard to that" you'd be like "whaaat?? Mustard? On a perfectly weird beetroot and brocco sammi? Are you entirely jesting or insane"
Nope, I like mustard, eat it all the time. I eat pretty much anything. Dill is about the only thing I can think of that I don't eat at all, although I'm not keen on cucumbers or brussel sprouts. Oh, baklava. I won't eat baklava.

I do think margarita is a wasted pizza opportunity, and ordering it with extra cheese is weird, but it's not like I didn't eat it. Even bad pizza is still pizza.

You (tiggum) know there is more types of cheese that can go on a pizza than just mozzarella right? Haven't you heard of four cheese pizzas?
Nope. :shrug:

Maybe if your taste buds are blasted to hell from smoking/drinking too much. I mean, like others have said it's not my top choice but if it's made well (i.e. not from dominos/pizza hut/etc) it can be fine.

I'm with you on cucumbers though. I hate those things. They overpower the flavor/texture of anything they're on. Also it irrationally irritates me whenever I hear someone call them "cukes".

Mozzarella has no flavor

Cool, let's have a pizza with no cheese on it then, it's the same right?

Just sounds like someone who's never had an Italian pizza. Some of that shredded mozzarella crap used on cheap pizzas is pretty flavorless. A good Italian pizza needs nothing but bread, sauce, and cheese. One or two toppings at the most.

A good pizza needs an inch or so of Stilton and gold leaf and foie gras.

I agree though that cheese pizza is lame. It can be decent with good quality cheeses, but with the huge variety of ingredients you can put on pizza going with nothing but cheese is a sign of a dull mind.

To be quite frank it's the fresh mozzarella as used on brick oven pizzas that I find dull and disappointing. It's a very subtle flavor, and "subtle" isn't a word I associate with pizza very much.

Great username for this btw

There was some point in my late twenties when my tastes changed and now I hate sweet things and crave salty things forever.

Also yes tapenade is delicious and I am actively resisting ducking out early for lunch to go to the Italian deli with an olive bar

This happened to me with root beer from the time i was about 10 until sometime in high school. I still remember the different flavor, it was way more medicinal and chemical than it ever tasted before. It was pretty wild but it wasn't one specific brand and no one else had any idea what i was talking about, so I figure it must have been a weird brain chemistry thing. Outside of that weird like 5 year period I loved root beer but when i was a tween it tasted like a cedar cabinet full of flat RC. If i concentrate I can still sort of taste it 'wrong' in root beer now, but i like it again and it overall tastes like I remember it tasting before it went weird.

It's almost like, tastes can, I dunno, change! Who knows how i have built an identity in this fickle world of shifting flavors. Pineapple and olives are both good on or off of pizza, sorry.

This plus developing some kind of intolerance for fructose so now a single gummy bear makes me feel like a swallowed battery acid.

I was reorganizing a bunch of candy at work and my worker said I put all the good tasting ones on the bottom. My response was to say they're all poo poo so who cares.

Black olives are overwhelmingly strong and bitter to me. I've never had green olives, so I don't know if I'd like them any better.
