Self-revelation #1 Food and drink

Self-revelation #1 Food and drink
I don’t pretend to understand or enjoy gourmet food—stacks of little sculpted meats and veggies with drizzled somethings on top. Chili, corned beef and cabbage, stews, meatballs and spaghetti and most fried things are what I go for.
Fancy sauces don’t appeal that much to me either. If you’re going cover an item with a sauce that masks its taste, why not just eat the sauce?
I get confused by too many utensils at the table setting.
I’m not a connoisseur of wine or beer. I try to find something relatively inexpensive that I like. Why try to pretend I can taste the walnuts, cherry, pine, citrus and fruity climate of the drink?
It seems odd that there’s more shelf space given to bottled water than to fresh vegetables. Hardly drink pop.
Takeout not too often. Vegetarian once in a while. Fat, salt sometimes.
Sweets, don’t tell anybody.
