What are foods you HAVE to like to be considered an adult?
Veggies and no candy or sweets
tomato
onion
broccoli
celery
mushrooms
fish
sweetbreads
wine
fluffy giadas
>>7274189
this plus beer
Broccoli without cheese
Brussels sprouts without bacon
Mushrooms
>>7274209
>People eat like this in the first place
The irony is that you're only an adult when you stop worrying about whether your food choices make you an adult or not.
>>7274283
I'll never understand why some people think they have to do certain things to prove they're adults to some invisible force/other people. What's the point? No one actually gives a shit if you drink beer or eat brussels sprouts. Of course the age differs from country to country/culture to culture, but typically when you reach the age of majority you're legally an adult and that's that.
Besides, it's not as if eating/drinking/doing certain things makes you an adult. If you see some 11 year olds getting drunk on offbrand larger, are you going to think they're mature? No. When I was in elementary school there was a girl who really hated sweet things. Did anyone think she was acting like an adult? No. I've personally been drinking coffee since I was 13 and I don't think anyone has thought any differently of me because of it.

>I'll never understand why some people think they have to do certain things to prove they're adults
because they are not adults
>>7274186
>what are foods you HAVE to like to be considered an adult?
No,no,no...
Its about disliking sugary sweet foods for every meal. like all the kids at school will just eat chocolate and cookies, soda and chips for lunch. Just the thought of so much sugar/salt makes me feel ill now.
Honestly, I never buy chocolate. Sometimes I will have one scoop of Ice cream or something on a hot day, bottle of coke once a week.
>>7274186
You don't have to like anything to be an adult. What you do have to do is TRY everything without crying like a little bitch because it's unfamiliar.
>>7274325
wannabe adult detected, I bet you don't even like artichoke
beer
fish
coffee
olives
mushrooms
eggs
broccoli
>all these manchildren not liking shit defending their lack of taste already
eat some tendies and cry in a blanket, faggots
>>7274190
I've always hated tomato. Don't mind tomato products, but a tomato itself is just a no go for me. Tastes disgusting.
All that other stuff I'm fine with though.
>>7274451
>beer
Not all of us like killing braincells for no reason.

>>7274496
Nope, agreed. Beer is kind of a cheap and brutally expensive waste of life that should
have the attention cigarettes get.
At least you can cook a wider arrange of proper meals with wines.
>Spirits, get it?
The foods that come with traditional meals and have to be mixed in. You don't have to
thoroughly enjoy these foods,or even cook them in your down time or snack on.
But try not asking for your burritos,burgers,pizzas, and holiday meals without the other
stuff kids usually don't want.
>>7274528
>cheap and brutally expensive
are you retarded
Tomato
Beer
Whiskey
Dark chocolate
Fish like sardines
Mustard
Unsweetened tea/coffee

Beer is for moderation, net getting drunk shitlord.
One beer to dinner every few days is recommended to clear kidneys.
Of course idiots who drink 3-4 every day are just alcoholics.

>>7274190
>mushrooms
Revolting. The latter I've enjoyed since I've been 13 however. 19 now and still dislike mushrooms. But I won't complain if they're already in a dish, just not by choice.

You can dislike certain things 2bh
But people that dislike a lot i.e. picky eaters are always plebs and man-children.
Tomato
Onion
Bell pepper
90℅ of commercially available vegetables
Bitter foods
>>7274484
So I'm not alone
>>7274203
You will never get to molest her when she was her tightest.
>>7274484
When I was a child, I threw up eating my first raw tomato. Then I grew up and learned they were poisonous. Either way, I can eat them raw now.
>>7275582
Wine is for fags and women
The ultimate "I'm pretending to enjoy this to look sophisticated" drink
>>7274194
If by adult we are talking about a civilised adult, then this.
>>7274663
hello america, you uncultured swine
>>7274186
If you even need to ask, you're already an eternal manchild
>Exposure, plain and simple. Scientists tell us that aversions fade away when we eat moderate doses of the hated foods at moderate intervals, especially if the food is complex and new to us. (Don't try this with allergies, but don't cheat either: few of us have genuine food allergies.) Exposure works by overcoming our innate neophobia, the omnivore's fear of new foods that balances the biological urge to explore for them. Did you know that babies who are breast-fed will later have less trouble with novel foods than those who are given formula? The variety of flavors that make their way into breast milk from the mother's diet prepares the infant for the culinary surprises that lie ahead. Most parents give up trying novel foods on their weanlings after two or three attempts and then complain to the pediatrician; this may be the most common cause of fussy eaters and finicky adults--of omnivores manqués. Most babies will accept nearly anything after eight or ten tries.

America makes the best wine in the world
Probably explains why there's more fags here than any other place too
It's the ultimate uncultured pretentious pseudo-intellectual food or beverage
People literally do not know what they're drinking when they're drinking wine
>>7275634
>America makes the best wine in the world
>>7275634
They're drinking fermented grape juice. Everybody knows that.
>>7275639
I wouldn't expect someone from some dirt slum 3rd world country to understand just how much America is superior to literally everything in the world
America makes the best wines, cheeses, beers, etc.
Anything that Europe pretended to even have an advantage in, in the 60s. Is completely obsolete
Parroting this outdated adage is intellectually dishonest
>>7274317
I overwhelming agree with your general sentiment but you can always mark out an immature person by their shitty eating habits

Probably explains why a large segment of 4chan hate people who go outside and have friends.

>The more I contemplated food phobias, the more I became convinced that people who habitually avoid certifiably delicious foods are at least as troubled as people who avoid sex, or take no pleasure from it, except that the latter will probably seek psychiatric help, while food phobics rationalize their problem in the name of genetic inheritance, allergy, vegetarianism, matters of taste, nutrition, food safety, obesity, or a sensitive nature.

>fish
There are actually people out there who say they don't like "fish", all the way across the board.
>>7275698
That looks a lot like Japan if I'm not mistaken. Can you really not tell?
>>7275647
This.
Find that it's not the inclusion of certain items, but the exclusion of others that tend to be a red flag.
People tend to notice and judge if you go to a restaurant with friends and ask for chicken nuggets and fries.
>>7276018
Fuck fish
but really, I don't mind the taste. I just really really hate the texture.
>>7276050
The point was that there are all sorts of different kinds of fish out there, with different tastes and textures.
I thought the only people left who "don't like fish" were baby boomers who grew up eating fish that was baked to death, sometimes in tomato sauce, which smelled up the entire house and was otherwise bland and dry.
>>7276018
I don't like fish, across the board. As many times as I've tried to eat it, there's just something about it that I just don't like. Might be the flavor, might be the texture, maybe a combination of both. I don't know what it is but I just don't like it.
>>7276050
i'm the same way, i hate the texture of fish but i love shellfish
Basically, if you dislike key ingredients and/or a wide enough range of food to make you bothersome to invite over for dinner or go to a restaurant with, you are immature and should force yourself to try new things.
For example, disliking most vegetables is a major social handicap unless all your friends are immature plebs too and you don't plan on expanding your social circle at all.
On top of that, a wide range of dislikes is typically tied to being extremely unhealthy overall.
>>7274189
;_;
>>7276158
It's similar to how people will 'try' Marmite by eating a spoonful and then concluding that it's disgusting. You can make fun of most regional foods if you eat them wrong.

I dislike plain celery, but cooked celery is the most ungodly thing on earth. Awful texture and taste.
>all the food tryhards itt
>>7280283
As long as you buy it before 10pm. Right, Aussie?
Roasted Brussel sprouts
>>7280341
In my experience, kids love those if they're cooked properly.
But if their first experience was with an improperly cooked sample, you're going to have a hell of a time convincing them to try the good stuff.
just not being a picky eater is all that required. You can dislike a few things, but if you go around being a vegan or shit like that, you cannot call yourself an adult
>>7274548
moderate drinking is 1-3 beers per day for a male
>>7280353
I wouldn't count a philosphical stance as childish. Vegans may be misguided, but too many adults have no stance more complicated than "I wanna feel good."
>>7280363
what the fuck point is there to living besides doing things that make you feel good and passing on your genes?
>>7280368
Passing on your genes doesn't make you feel good, sanpye. It results in a lot of work.
>>7280382
>Passing on your genes doesn't make you feel good, sanpye. It results in a lot of work.
in the short term for sure, but eventually it pays off when your offspring feel obligated to care for you in old age
>>7280409
please note that I said 'and', though I definitely would argue that passing your genes on is enjoyable
>>7280368
It's hard to explain to a child. You'll probably understand one day.
>>7280412
yea, but feeling good and feeling obligated to so something out of pity are not the same thing. you just contradiscted yourself.
but i don't really care, désu.
>>7280422
>but feeling good and feeling obligated to so something out of pity are not the same thing
I never implied they were. Making others feel obligated to do things to your benefit is certainly not mutually exclusive with feeling good
>>7274186
Plenty of adults eat like children, and that shit was common a few generations ago. There were meat and potatoes guys. My grandfather was one of them. He wouldn't drink water, either. He died before I was born.
I eat vegetables and drink water.
>>7280433
Meat and potatoes is childish?
>>7280439
Without real vegetables? Certainly.
>>7280448
>only vegetables I like count
>>7280439
A meal of nothing but meat and potatoes? Either childish or poor backwater male birthday celebration.
>>7280448
I disagree. Granted it's not a complete and balanced meal but at least it's a genuine effort to find nourishment in a meal that has to be cooked and not simply heated in a microwave like tendies.
>>7280467
God. Do we really live in an era where meat and potatoes counts as genuine effort?
>>7280464
lol, so you are saying it is never acceptable to eat a meal of meat and potatoes?
>>7280487
Sadly, yes.
The manchild will just take a pre-packaged meal out of the freezer and heat in a microwave but the man will insist that his wife cooks him a balanced meal of meat and three vegetables.
Vegetables

>>7274186
None. Adults can like whatever they want. If you need consensus or group approval for liking what you want to within the law, you need to reconsider whether or not you think of yourself as an adult. Fucking millenials.
>>7274186
>have to like
How about this... Not bitch and eat whatever. If you don't like it then it's probably prepared wrong.
Fish that wasn't deboned.
I've already accepted my manchildism a while ago. Finding a small bone after spending minutes trying to get rid of them isn't worth it.

Mushrooms

Eating an entire king size candy in one sitting
>>7274191
Fucking love them.
I would say.
Fish all types
Brussel sprouts
Asparagus
Black coffee
Basicly any bitter food.
As kids we are biologically programmed to avoid bitter foods ,
as a kid I hated onions and mushrooms and olives
as an adult I enjoy onions and mushrooms and still think olives are fucking nasty tasting shitholes that have no place on anything that's intended to be consumed.

Sucks having expensive taste.
>>7276158
Because it's a comedy show.
What all you FAGGOTS don't realize is that being an adult means making your own choices and not having something to prove to the people around you.
This whole thread is based on a false premise.
>>7285884

You must be under 30
You eat what is on the damn table, son.
I don't think adults necessarily need to enjoy any certain types of good but I think the ability to eat something you don't like is part of growing up. Rejecting 'yucky' foods is seen as childish.
