I love talking about food, and I think it doubles the pleasure when you do it as you're eating a good meal; it's like... a food loop or something. XD
HAHAHA INORITE? So my roommate and I are both similarly food-obsessed (we watch Top Chef and shout at the screen together), and we usually cook and share meals. Whenever we eat, silence usually descends for the first few minutes as we taste the food, and then. . . we start talking about the food. Mmm, oh my, these oyster mushrooms; oh, the red wine vinegar really brightened this up; next time, let's add some fresh parsley, I think that would really make this, etc. etc. etc. Well, we do that slightly less these days, probably because we've both just gotten so accustomed to good food that we take it for granted, hahaha. But it really unnerves our third housemate, who's more typically American and eats a lot of processed food and possibly doesn't even know good food when she tastes it, her palate is so poisoned. "Is this what you do?" she asked once. "Sit around and make yummy noises at each other?" Well. . . yes? And why shouldn't we? Our food is AWESOME. XD
I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT YOUR BEEF TONGUE RECOMMENDATION(S). I have a well-stocked pantry and access to plenty more good stuff, although if you tell me to, like, buy a quarter cup of saffron or something I will just look at you like you are crazy. But YAY! I AM EXCITE.
