"Generally speaking I'd say people's tastes are getting weaker. Strong food smells are more and more rejected by the consumer. Suffice it to mention garlic, which nowadays seems to be one causing social rejection, even though garlicky dishes tend to be delicious.

"Serrano is excellent, but Iberico is transforming." – maria lorraine, on varieties of Spanish jamon
