Ooh, mochi! :3

I love to hold and knead it before I eat it because the skin is so soft and reminds me of dough!

What flavor do you like? I personally like the green tea and black sesame ones.

Green tea and strawberry rose

Mango can be good too! Yum yum!

Ooh, mango! Haven't tried that one yet.

Sounds appetizing!

I was quite adventurous once and tried a durian mochi before...and it tasted great!

Not too pungent, quite fleshy. Not too sweet either.

Does anyone here like mochi?

I like how it comes in all colors and has such diversity of flavors. It’s also soft and mushy inside the mouth.

Mochi is delicious. I like the green tea flavored one.

Even though there's food I love and food I hate, I still mostly eat for survival, for the energy it gives me.

Furthermore, I don't understand the obsession with food. People are so crazy and particular about what they like and eat. People are so crazy about trying out everything and arguing about what's better and what's worse. People stay in queues just to taste a certain sauce, and they even fight over it. People pay to eat "good" food in public amongst other people - yuck! That's all so alien to me. Like, I'm genuinely slightly surprised this thread exists.

(Yes, I'm northern European, how did you know?)

I'm a lot more opinionated about drinks, though. Caffeine is overrated and overused, alcohol is a plague, and sparkling water trumps everything don't@me.

I like food

I love food

You sure about that?

Why not make one, then? There's nothing in meat pie that cannot be commonly found.

Baked goods are more up my brother's alley; maybe I'll ask him to try making one in the future.

Oh, just use store bought pastry and you're golden. Most folks should be forgiven for not knowing the ins and outs of dough, and it's the innards that really make a meat pie.

I wish there was a British pie shop near me; I've always wanted to try a meat pie smothered in gravy.

And most stores sell pre-made pie crusts ready to be filled with whatever you want.

Finding the good and reliable brands with the right sauce, ingredient quality, and proportions can be hard though
