What food did you not try until you were an adult? Did you have a "where have you been all my life" moment? (self.askbeehaw)

Despite the fact that 90% of what I ate was home cooked, mostly from scratch, meals, I managed to miss out on some basics like courgette (zucchini) and aubergine (eggplant) and BUTTER if you can believe it.

My mother was big on margarine. So when I moved out I continued the tradition until one day I made a fateful mistake. It was like in Ratatouille. I was sat in my studio just eating buttered bread having an out of body experience.

A properly made Old Fashioned. Yes, whiskey is a good group. 👍

One of my greatest joys is going to a new restaurant and ordering an old fashion. The quality of that drink sets the whole mood for my dining experience.

It sure does! It’s crazy how the flavor of the drink can vary so much from place to place.
