An ex claimed to be great at cooking, and tried to make a grilled cheese sandwich ffs, then burnt the fuck out of it. I absolutely love cooking, so when people give me something terrible I try to hold it back, but can't help admitting what I truly think. I'd expect the same from someone trying something I made tbh. If you give me dry food, I'm going to tell you. If it's badly seasoned, I'm going to tell you. If it's absolutely amazing, I'm going to tell you. I don't even go Gordon Ramsay on people. I just tell the truth. She got so pissed at me, and started to cry. Telling me she would never cook for me again. It's like we've been dating 4 months, and you made me a grilled cheese absolutely burnt to a crisp. She was crazy though. Probably fucked up on purpose to see if I'd pretend to like it for an ego trip. Leo sun Aries moon women are crazy like that. She eventually found her sub man though, and God knows it wasn't me.

Because the shit is nasty thats why you aint like it

But I love chocolate and I like bacon. Naturally they should be allies, but instead I had to fake tell them that I liked it. 😬

Lol I hear you. But something sweet and something salty usually doesn't mix unless it's chicken and waffles or something or sour patches or something. That's too out there I think

I haven't had chicken and waffles in years, maybe I should try some soon.

Dude, I couldn't tell this one what I really thought, she would fall to pieces! 😔

I wasn't even expecting it, I haven't been back to this place in at least 8 months and all of a sudden boom, snacks!

My Thanksgiving “guest” insisted he made the best gravy. Instead of using the drippings and adding flour and making the base, he poured in the stock and way too many herbs and then took a handful of flour and threw it in!

I tried to hold back my horrified reaction as he kept stirring and stirring saying the flour globs would break apart. Newsflash: they won’t (and didn’t). The whole thing turned out thick and green (from all the herbs) with disgusting flour blobs throughout. I ended up throwing it all out later.

The lies people tell themselves….smh.

Haha! He texted me tonight after a week. Trying to figure out why he had a meltdown and he apologized. I told him he needed to figure shit out on his own before trying to get with me or anyone else. I’ll fck’n tell him about himself!

I don't know. I'm one of those funny types that don't like to accept food from other people unless I'm ordering from small vendors like dairy queen which is very famous here in my neck of the woods. And I love to eat too. I'm a picky eater folks.

I only went to work today in anticipation of traditional Texas chili "that takes 3-4 hrs to make". I've toiled over that myself a few times and was so eager to eat someone else's: it's expensive ish and takes a lot of effort. the guy who made it is like 64 so I figured it would lack seasoning, and spice since he warned me he would make it mild for the public. ok this shit was just stew meat, sautéed cactus, and water with maybe some chicken broth. that's it. he said he put 4 jalapeños in instead of 12 (I'm accustomed to loading a dish with all the peppers I have). it tasted like nothing. he warned me to save myself a bowl since people would eat it up but no one ate it. I'm still grateful for the food but man what a disappointment.

You should revoke that Texas man's residency card! 😅

An Aqua told me he was really great at making pancakes. I love mine puffy and fluffy, and he noted be could make that. It came out all flat and greasy like an anorexic pancake. No way, blehgh! and I told him he was a terrible cook!

Pretty sure he forgot to put in the baking powder.

Aquarius is the master of everything. Until they put their words into practice. 😋

Sriracha sauce, I’m not a fan. Lots of ppl love it, and there was recently a sriracha sauce shortage. Blegh 😒

A family member wanted me to try prosciutto at a holiday gathering. I didn't like it at all. It tastes very unique. It's not for me.

You know, I tried some chocolate covered bacon that somebody made for me. I didn't like it.

What's something else that somebody made for you recently, that you did not care for?

That sounds awful.

Chocolate and fruit are a bad combination. Something watery and cleansing with something that's supposed to be thick and indulgent, it just doesn't mix.

I'll take some fresh chocolate strawberries or maybe some stuff from edible arrangements that are dipped in chocolate. But that's because I love chocolate that much.

I guess I'm lucky lol. Whenever a guy/friend cooked for me it was actually pretty good.

Scorpio and pisces were particularly good. One scorpio even prepared sushi !

I'm a scorpio too, I'd like to think we know how to take care of people 😄

The Scorpios I've known have been good at food. Always pay attention to detail.

I think I'm just drawn to people who are good with food.

I'm a Cancer. The Scorpios I've known have had either Taurus or Cancer placements so I don't really have a fair test to be honest.

If we look deeper into the charts I'm sure there's probably something unrelated to signs, too.
