    @JessieJ   I love a Laphroaig but in the winter. We live in a modern house without a fireplace and it makes me feel like I’m sitting in my granny’s old cottage with the fire roaring 😊

    @Ranald   Are you a bit into whisk(e)y? I’m fortunate to have had something from most of the distilleries in Scotland and Ireland, and would enjoy recommending some smaller/boutique/craft distilleries

    There’s a tasty world to explore outside of well-known brands, not to mention so much more value for money! I’ve sampled stuff from Glenfiddich, Macallan, Dalmore etc. which were perfectly yummy, but didn’t do more for me than £50 lesser-known brands. If I’d paid £400 of my own money for a bottle of one of these I’d honestly have felt quite let down

    That said taste is definitely subjective! 

    @WelshBlue   that’s funny about texture, I can relate! Have you ever liked a taste and felt sad you couldn’t appreciate it because the texture was a  barrier? I had that with porridge as I love the oaty taste but not the texture

    @66Mustang … definitely … love scampi - hate prawns because of the texture. Love peanuts - hate peanut butter for the same reason. Love eggs poached/ fried/ boiled - hate scrambled and omelette

    Biggest hate - twiglets. My brain just rejects the texture before even going in my mouth to the point I gag at people eating them in front of me

    It's weird really cos' in the past I've thought nothing of eating a sandwich with all sorts of oils and chemicals on my hands that you can taste let alone smell

    Not that I'd ever order a cheese and onion sandwich with a dressing of hydraulic oil or potassium nitrates 🤣 … no wonder my stomach is in bits …

    @WelshBlue I kind of get it I think, I've been through similar periods of having a strong stomach and putting very stupid stuff in my mouth, and then others of being super sensitive to the point that brushing my teeth made me gag… 😆

    We're all weird in our own ways 😛

    Texture can extend to touch with me … don't mind raw pork or beef … give me a raw chicken breast and it's radioactive.

    I think I would be the most squeamish serial killer in history 😂

    … but actually got more important things to worry about … shaved half my face and head - then the clippers have packed in. And have to be somewhere in an hour. Will have to film people' reaction lol

    @WelshBlue my mum is like that, she used to be a nurse and she said after working in theatre she can no longer cut raw meat as her mind imagines the likeness to human tissue … she's fine cooking and a brilliant cook, just someone else has to cut chicken and stuff

    I hope you have a good day. 😊
