I mean, there are plenty of meals that are amazing for like two servings but after that it’s just too much. Particularly sweet things; I recently had Pavlova for the first time and it was good, but I don’t really need more of it.
I guess the point of the comic is more like “Yes, it’s good but I actually hate it”…
The title is dumb and detracts from what is a totally normal interaction in a relationship.
I was fortunate enough to grow up in a household where my mom cooked every night and we had nights like this all the time. In fact, it was rare we’d add something to the category of recipes we liked enough to have them again. Does that mean we didn’t appreciate her time and effort? Does that mean it was terrible? No, it just means we didn’t love it enough to want to eat it again, usually due to the recipe. There’s nothing wrong with that.
It sure as hell would be worse if he lied, said he loved it, and ended up eating something he didn’t like that much for the rest of his life.
Tl;dr: title is dumb as hell
Why i stopped making food for everyone…
And also why I stopped taking food from anyone, because it comes at the risk of requiring a falsely positive opinion.
A friend sent me home with a lovely jar of soup once. She asked me how it was and I said it was good after I added some seasoning. She said she would NEVER give me another jar of soup as long as she lived.
I don’t cook often but when I do I never mind if people season my dishes to their taste because I’m so tired of having to worry if other people will mind if I season the meal they made. Of course, with the caveat that they should have tried it before seasoning it.
