"I mean, even if I said cardamom was the crimson-streaked purple sky of sunset after a summer storm while coriander was the warming, orange-tinted sunlight of a late fall morning, I think I am still conveying some usable information regarding taste expectations. Or perhaps, cardamom is the bassoon in the spice orchestra?" - MGZ

"For me, truffle oil smells like something died in a wet basement. I get an almost physical reaction of disgust. It is an odd sensation when I smell it. It is like my brain is telling me to get far away from it—fast. This doesn’t happen to me with any other food." - adido

"While I initially bought pork because of the price difference, I prefer it now. The last time I bought a beef tongue it seemed much fattier. With either, I cook it till tender in lightly seasoned liquid, and then use the meat in various ways later. Beef, in particular, goes well with a piquant sauce. That last I tried included pomegranate." - paulj
