    Oh sorry, try it and then proclaim its objectively disgusting and everyone who likes it is lying - as you did in the top comment. That’s even worse. Goes from passive immaturity into full on chauvinism and childish behavior and disrespect.

    Refusing to try other cultures is immaturity and petulance. Trying it once and then proclaiming it objectively disgusting and those who like it are liars is chauvinism and arrogance.

      i have tried several varieties of alcoholic beverage and the overwhelming majority of them taste like shit. it’s not a one and done evaluation, but refusing to try additional beers after spitting out the first one is valid, and i’d say more valid than keeping on going until you forget not liking it.

        It’s valid to not like something. It’s not valid to say “they taste like shit” objectively and everyone else is wrong. This isn’t that complicated but you really want to justify your childish petulance and incuriosity as a virtue. You have a fundamental logical failure of mixing up subjective taste and objectivity, which is common among children who haven’t developed theory of mind.
