I don’t care what y’all think. Nothing about my food being hot or even warm makes it any better for me. I always burn tongue and even if I don’t, I really don’t enjoy rushing to swallow because my mouth is at risk of inflicting pain. Even when it’s slightly warm, I don’t like it. I want my food stone cold, no matter what the food is.

I always let my food cool down, not even to room temperature, I let it cool even longer and I eat everything stone cold. It lets me properly savor the flavor, without worrying about too much heat. Eating cold food for me is a relaxing experience, eating hot food is a panic-inducing one, and eating slightly warm food is boring, not any better than stone cold food. I’ll even gladly eat food straight out of the fridge and enjoy it! I’ve been called “crazy” and “perverse” for this many, many times.

I like my food stone cold and refuse to eat it even mildly warm, always letting it cool down way below room temperature. Screw what anyone thinks 😆

    How do you “let something cool down” further than room temperature? You can’t really let something just sit still and cool more than the ambient temperature, so you must use some form of cooling element, like ice cubes or something.

    Or this is bait, I honestly can’t tell.

        Ah yes. But how come it gets warm in the first place? You put it in the fridge after cooking I guess? You don’t eat the raw ingredients, right? That would be even more astonishing 😅

          Yes…sometimes
          I’ll be honest…yes, sometimes I do eat “raw” ingredients. Not ones that are actually dangerous to eat, but just yesterday, I found a pack of pre-cooked, vacuum-sealed ramen noodles in dad’s fridge. I should’ve boiled them to heat them up…but they were pre-cooked, okay? So, umm…I just unpacked them, took out the solid slab of cold noodles and started biting into that…
          Not bad at all, I must say! Good snacc, would eat again :3

          By now, you should have realized, I am NOT normal

            Hey, what is normal these days. Enjoy your food, and surround yourself with people who don’t judge.

            I think it’s freaking weird, but I wouldn’t unfriend you over this thing. This thing wouldn’t hurt our theoretical friendship. Eat how you wanna eat. Bon appetit!
