Tbh I don’t really like my mom’s foods

She’s not a bad cook, it’s just that we share a very different appetite. To start off I cannot stand spicy foods. Mom loves it and cooks it quite often and while I eat it without complaining I’d sweat and my whole digestive system feels painful. Another thing is that I wish she’d make her foods more flavorful. They’re often bland and just… feel like the ingridient itself, if you know. She’s more of a natural appetite kind of person while I like herbs and spices and all those tangy, umami, complex kind of person.

Now before you call me a grown ass ungrateful man still living with his parents, I still haven’t graduated high school. And yes I‘m looking forward to live on my own and finally start eating the foods that were always on my mind. And no, I don’t tell my mom about my preferences cause I wouldn’t want to upset her. I’m writing this just because… because I wanted to rant it out somewhere. I kinda feel bad about having these thoughts.
