I tried that! Big nope from me.I've also heard putting a couple lentils with the grounds made it less bitter, so I tried it with a coffee I didn't care for. I think it worked,but I didn't like it anyway
As much as I like salt on some foods, I really dislike tasting it in others. Like regular peanut butter--too salty, I like the just peanuts one
Or baked goods--if the recipe calls for more than a teaspoon baking powder, or soda, I leave out salt
I used to like a little salt on my oatmeal instead of sugar or maple syrup. Sometimes I just wanted a savory breakfast instead of a sweet one, and the flavor of oats by itself is un-assertive enough so that oats can go either way. You were REALLY bold and imaginative to try onion and oats, though! I like both of those, but can't imagine how I would ever like them together. It's funny how that works sometimes.You are just trying to think of something discusting? What's wrong with you people?
I actually tried this once, because I'm an imbecile. Oatmeal and onion. Yeah... That's sick. Don't do that.
Traditional mince pies that are served during the Christmas period are utterly delicious.
They are made of chopped dried fruits (sultanas, currants, raisins mixed peel), spices (cinnamon,nutmeg,mace,ground coriander etc) ,brown sugar, nuts and brandy. Nowadays most brands do a vegan version and omit the suet (animal fat) which is substituted with a vegetable oil.During the Tudor period mince pies were made with a mixture of the above and meat but the recipe has changed during the centuries.
There is a well renowned Cheddar cheese maker that has a mince pie Cheddar which apparently is delicious.
That's have porridge is served in Scotland; with salt and not sugar. I always add a good pinch of salt to porridge whilst it's cooking.
I'm also not a fan of having anything sweet for breakfast.
I absolutely cannot do salt in oatmeal. As much as I like sweet, I could never do the instant flavored oatmeal packets because I could taste the salt. They all had salt.
I didn’t go back through this thread but people put salt on melon. Supposedly makes it sweeter but I didn’t like it when I tried it.
I can do sweet anytime of day.

I probably said this but peanut butter and porridge (oatmeal) it sounds horrible!

Maybe I wouldn't hate mince pie idk
If there's ground meat involved then I wouldn't like it.

Tried salt in my coffee. It made a really noticeable difference in a way I didn't like. Killed the flavor!

I tried salt in my coffee, didn't really notice the difference. When my boyfriend saw me do it, he tried to stop me.
I'm very picky about coffee, I think most coffee is too bitter.

I never had mince pie but I loved my mom’s mince cookies. She made them at Christmas time.
I've always liked mince pies! My family always made them during the holidays (with a commercially-prepared piecrust, and a filling made by Nonesuch- it's a solid brick of dehydrated fruits, mostly raisins, along with sugar and lots of spices like cinnamon and cloves). We usually added other stuff like chopped-up apples. It was a long time before I realized that this stuff also had beef- I could never taste it, and I have no idea why it would be made with meat. I had to give them up because of that.Lil awkward when an old post gets quoted

Funny thing about coffee: I love the aroma, but find the taste to be too bitter. I actually haven't tried it with sweetener and/or some sort of creamer. I've always thought that if I didn't like it black, then I wouldn't like it any other way (unless I added so much other stuff that I wouldn't be able to really taste the coffee flavor anymore). I haven't tried it with sweetener and cinnamon or cloves though. Something tells me I'd like that: I suspect that the flavor of coffee would go well with those.
