As soon as someone says X tastes like Y I get a little suspicious. Can't we just come up with a new notion of X unto itself so we all don't have to pretend that X tastes like Y?
- boomboomsubban 4y agoHow do you describe an unfamiliar taste to someone without comparisons?
- asow92 4y agoI would use descriptors such as savory, crispy, etc.
- boomboomsubban 4y agoSavory like a main course? Or full of umami similar to cheese or soy sauce? And by crispy do you mean like lettuce or like chips or like a crisp wine? There's no good way to describe new food, comparisons are useful though they can be used to mislead your expectations.
