Tate Schwab March Culinary Blog One food that I don’t like is avocados. My mom really likes them though. She puts them on her salads and she really likes guacamole. Avocados have just never appealed to me. I don’t really like their texture and they have a very odd taste that I don’t like. If I’m in the mood for it sometimes I like really salty guacamole buy most of the time I just don’t even bother. Avocado’s one of those foods that puts a weird feeling in my throat. I don’t know if it’s a common thing but certain foods put a really weird feeling in my throat, especially if I don’t like them. It’s this weird, itchy, slightly constricted feeling. I get it with apples. I can drink apple juice and eat any kind of cooked apple but when I eat regular raw apple it always makes me throat really itchy, kind of a shame cause I like apples. But anyways, avocado’s one of those foods that just make my throat feel weird and that’s one of the few reasons that I don’t like them. One food that I really do like is tomatoes. Tomatoes are just so delicious; I really like putting them on my sandwiches. A lot of people I know just don’t like tomatoes which I just can’t understand, I’ve always had a love for tomatoes. I like just biting into them like and eating them like an apple, or slicing them up and eating them with some salt. Tomatoes are a very versatile food. There’s just so much you can do with them in regards to making different food. You can make them into salsa or throw them in a salad. I also really like tomato soup. Tomato soup and grilled cheese is one of my favorite meals. The combination of the toasty bread and melty cheese dipped in some hot, thick tomato soup is just fantastic. All of the flavors come together with great synergy. Tomato pizza is really good too. The taste of the dried tomatoes on top of delicious pizza is just great. It’s one of the few things I actually like in the school cafeteria. Lay’s makes these chips that are sun dried tomato and basil flavored and they’re some of the best chips around, I always get them wherever I can. In short, ever since I first tried avocados I’ve never liked them, but tomatoes are one of my favorite foods.
