    Much the same. My parents are shocked that I now eat medium rare steak and don’t instantly die.

    Also, turns out meat tastes far better with salt and pepper, to accompaniments my parents didn’t believe in.

      Wow I’ve heard about no spice households, but never thought it would include salt and pepper! You must have loved going to friends’ horses houses (lol funny typo) for dinner lol

        Rarely got invited, but I loved restaurants. My mother also wondered why I developed an interest in cooking at a young age, not realizing it’s because I wanted something that tastes good.
