The wonderful food of the south

Now, now. Let’s not disparage things others might love

Denigrating other people's food

Lately I’ve been noticing a tendency on the part of some HOers to criticize other people’s taste in foods. Terms like “disgusting” and “monstrosity” are used to describe things that other people say they like. Even though I really dislike the phrase “don’t yuck other people’s yum”, it applies here. We all like what we like, and I think calling something disgusting is rude and an overreaction. I’d love to see more civility and tolerance here. Thanks.
