It's heartening to see you two finally discussing food.
but why are you both arguing over the worst-tasting?

And Bryan, don't forget that when you were
garbage-picking, John's donut shop was dessert.

....And you don't look pretentious when you go on a rant about any canned
or jarred food that you can't stand? How about your canola/vegetable
oil rants? Normal choice for almost anyone else, but you go on and on
about it, sounding pretentious as hell. You must be reflecting, I guess.

Anyway, moving on... even as a child, I never bothered to use the green
can, because I couldn't tell a difference between having that "Parmesan"
or not having it. I can't say that I hate it, because it has no taste
to me. Junk/not worth buying.

OTOH, I don't care much for cheese. If I go to the Olive Garden, I tell
the waitress to not bother with the Parmesan. The fresh stuff has some
taste, but it doesn't add much anything. I don't think that I've ever
bought a block of it, and I've never bought a green can.

Hahahahahahahahahaha. Don't forget the jarred wino beatoff on your
next sandwich.

I didn't want to post that, because he'd snip out the rest of my
comment, and go into a pretentious rant about store-bought mayonnaise.
(I was vague about "jarred foods".) I don't care for it, either, and I
don't buy store-bought mayonnaise -- just as I don't buy the green can
"cheese". It'll all go to waste long before I'd use it, as quality is
poor to begin with.

Bullshit. Your hillbilly mama put it on the table,
and you put it on spaghetti. You'd never heard
of the fancy stuff until recently.

No cheese and overcooked possum, and for a treat,
the Olive Garden.

Just like your poor attempts at making insight into my life. You
haven't met me, and you don't know anything about me. All you have are
you distant far-off speculations. Are you related to Janet UK?

I hardly care for cheese, and I certainly don't care for bland tasteless
pre-shredded cheese. If I'm to put cheese on something, I want a sharp
cheese that I can actually taste. A few mild chunks of mozzarella on
pizza is fine for texture, but I should still be able to see the sauce.

By "the fancy stuff", do you mean an actual block of Parmesan cheese?
My Italian grandfather used to grate it up, and put it into a jar in the
refrigerator. I still don't buy it myself, because I don't care for it.
I'm fine with nothing but tomato sauce on my pasta.
