What's the latest food you've tried that you wish you had tried sooner?

[7Phoenix7]

Recently, I finally tried a traditional Mexican sauce called Mole. It's made using a bunch of ingredients... and the flavor is hard to explain.

It's earthy, a bit sweet, a little spicy...

It doesn't always look super appealing at first glance but it is so delicious. I wish I had tried it earlier.

Yum

What about you?

[exitseven]

I had this thing a while back where I was trying new foods when I would go out to eat. I hated all of it. Eventually I realized how stupid it was to go pay money to go out to et and have to eat something I hated. I cannot think of a single thing that I wish I tried sooner.

[7Phoenix7]

You a picky eater? Lol

[exitseven]

yes, I am a picky eater. Give me a steak or chicken and some potatoes.

[7Phoenix7]

Yum, and what vegetable to with that?

[7Phoenix7]

*to go

[exitseven]

potstoes are a vegetable but I like all vegetables, Corn, strung beans , broccoli, asparagus, lima beans and really anything the Jolly Green Giant makes.

[7Phoenix7]

LOL nice

[Malwi93]

i do the same but thats the problem experimenting. you may come across something great or downright awful. but in general i see no point going to a restaurant if not to order something exotic

[7Phoenix7]

@Malwi93 yep I agree

[NathanDavis]

such a perfect and exact, accurate description of some good great mole sauce... "It's made using a bunch of ingredients... and the flavor is hard to explain."

[NathanDavis]

you know... I am no fan of too hot spicy food, not so much of spicy sauce... or green stuff

but I've tried some chimichurri, of which there's a few different recipes out there (as it is made all over Latin America) but more local ones can be also on the hot spicy side...

and it's something I've heard about all my life, but I never had really tried it before... till someone here mentioned it to me again, and some time after, I've tried and made one myself and it was "okay" which is a lot to say from me lmao... if it is "okay" for me then that means it can be great for others who are not as fussy as me or have more taste buds alive lol...

this is an example... of it, on an Argentinian cut...

-6:13 time stamp was literally me... lmao

[7Phoenix7]

Alright now you have me wanting to try chimichurri 😂. I guess that will be my next big back adventure.

Is it best with steak?

[NathanDavis]

yes... "perfect" to go with a good, great one... medium rare but a little more done?

[7Phoenix7]

You know I have to try it soon lol... I'll let you know what I think

[NathanDavis]

I gotta get you some corn tortillas though...

[7Phoenix7]

Today i had corn tortillas with the Mole sauce 🤤

[NathanDavis]

now we're talking...

[IslaTheWitch]

tacos lol

Drama Queen made them at home a few months ago when I was sick... and even if all sauces were bought, it still tasted great :D

[NathanDavis]

really? 2024 till you had some tacos?

[IslaTheWitch]

@NathanDavis I live in Central Europe, not Mexico... we don't have tacos here on every corner :D

[NathanDavis]

there are Mexicans in every corner, and around it too... in this world

and, if there's Mexicans, there's tacos... guaranteed, lol

[NathanDavis]

North Korea, knows tacos...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uEdm-8vQntE

[IslaTheWitch]

@NathanDavis come here and experience living here in the first step... then we can discuss it again :D

if there was a Mexican guy on every corner... hmmmm... :D

[NathanDavis]

I might as well go there and open up a taco stand at the nearest corner

[IslaTheWitch]

@NathanDavis yes, please :D

just wear something warmer... we had 2C the whole day today...

[NathanDavis]

2C for me... it's jeans and a hoodie weather

[IslaTheWitch]

@NathanDavis yeah... that's why you are my feet and hand warmer :D

[NathanDavis]

lmao...

[7Phoenix7]

Oh man @islathewitch... you've been missing out lmao. We 3 have to get together... we'll make Nathan get busy on the grill so we can have some tacos 🌮

[IslaTheWitch]

@7Phoenix7 count me in :D

[Nikki1989]

Baba Ganoush.

PS ~ funny how an AI bot knows what food tastes like. Ha!

[7Phoenix7]

😂 lol

[7Phoenix7]

That looks good 👍

I recently had the pleasure of trying Labneh, a Middle Eastern yogurt cheese, for the first time. Its creamy texture and tangy flavor were delightful, and I found it incredibly versatile. It pairs beautifully with olives, a drizzle of olive oil, or spread on freshly baked bread. Its simplicity and richness made me wonder why it took so long for me to discover this gem. It's a taste revelation I won't forget anytime soon! 🧀✨

[7Phoenix7]

Creamy and tangy eh? 👀

[mandyfire98]

Oh it's been so long since I've tried anything new honestly.

I'm hoping to answer @7Phoenix7

[7Phoenix7]

You gptta try my ice-cream dispenser.

[7Phoenix7]

*gotta

[mandyfire98]

Oh I'm definitely down for that.

[7Phoenix7]

Just keep pushing the button and the ice-cream will keep coming lol

It can get messy tho, @NathanDavis will bring a cone for you

[mandyfire98]

He needs to bring the final topping

[NathanDavis]

top of the top, on point... and, serving doubles...

[7Phoenix7]

Getting hot... now it's dripping

[AffectionKing]

Broccoli and cabbage. They’re what the young people call bussing. They’re fire all jokes aside. I tried cabbage for the first time 2 thanksgivings ago and wished I tried it sooner.

[7Phoenix7]

Bussin bussin! 😂

You waited that long to have some broccoli and cabbage? Haha

[AffectionKing]

Elementary school I tried it. But it was cold and unseasoned School food. Then I bit into a piece of chicken I was in 3rd or 4th grade and I saw blood gushing out. I felt sick and never ate school food again until high school and barely ate it then. So yes at the age of 28 I tried both of those. Lol

[7Phoenix7]

Eww lol I hate when the chicken is like that. As a kid that would creep me out too...

[ohsheeT]

I would like to try that that looks goodre-state//background_color_rgba (0, 0, 0, 0), font_color_rgb (77, 77, 77), justifyLeft

You need to try it!

[Sevenpointfive]

honey dew melon. i hated cantaloupes as a kid so i didn't give this one a shot until my 20's. great melon! i love melons

[7Phoenix7]

Me too, melons are delicious 😋

[FoxnEagle]

I generally stay away from fried stuff, but fried jalapeño poppers are definitely worth it.

[7Phoenix7]

Heck yea 😋

[AviatorTom]

I never had sushi until about 5 years ago. Now, I love sushi.

[7Phoenix7]

I like it spicy 👍

[Unit1]

A steak.

If I knew steak can be cheap and good and sizeable and be made at home, I'd have it sooner than later.

[7Phoenix7]

Yep, it's absolutely delicious

[Unit1]

Correct. Sausages aren't the same anymore. They taste like garbage.
Steak or raw meat can't really be faked to that extend. Yet.

[Aiko_E_Lara]

I'm currently in a hotel and it was Eggs Florentine from a buffet breakfast. The rest was all that im already familiar with.

[7Phoenix7]

Is that it?

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Yeah without the bread. It was meh

[7Phoenix7]

It looks good 👍

[Dantezam]

Mole is one of the best dishes across the world! re-state//background_color_rgba (0, 0, 0, 0), font_color_rgb (77, 77, 77), justifyLeft

[7Phoenix7]

Absolutely 💯 lol

[Dan290290]

I love that dish. I think Mole is made (partly) from cocoa. It's great

[7Phoenix7]

It's sooo good. What did you have it with?

[Dan290290]

Chicken and rice. Mixing them up with the sauce was awesome 💯

[7Phoenix7]

Yesss

[Dan290290]

Actually I think it was pretty close to that picture you posted :)

[7Phoenix7]

Lmao

[Dan290290]

Haha awesome 😂😂

[Lynx122]

Korean food :)

[7Phoenix7]

Oh yes, yum. I love Korean BBQ

[saraupstairs]

That mole looks nice.

[7Phoenix7]

It does indeed haha

[purplepoppy]

Moles just a curry with chocolate added.

[7Phoenix7]

Lmao

[Sevenpointfive]

and you like mole now? that's one of those that i didn't need to try again

[purplepoppy]

I've made it but wasn't overly impressed. Perhaps by British palate is just more accustomed to Asian sauces rather than Mexican.

[Sevenpointfive]

now that you mention it, it does remind me of a chinese sauce that's poured over a burrito like dish. hated that too! it was awful and the dish was better without it (think big Asian burritos). maybe you've heard of it while i've forgotten the name? i think it starts with B or M? certainly gave me a BM

[Miah06]

Chimichangas.. so yummy

[7Phoenix7]

Oh I tried that a long time ago haha.

[Miah06]

Me likey

[Pete671]

Cortado coffee,

[7Phoenix7]

Does it taste very different from regular coffee?

[Pete671]

It taste milder at first, but the flavour is there if you sip it slowly, it sorts of hits your palate after swallowing,,,
But possibly the biggest attraction is it's made in one way with no options, no need for sugar that I normally have, and comes in one size, no options at all,,,

[7Phoenix7]

Interesting, haha 🤔

[Pete671]

Just reread my answer and there could be a double entendre there if you were looking for one lol,,,

[7Phoenix7]

Lmao hahaha

[Malwi93]
