I think I may have to appoint myself Chairman of the Celery Eradication Gestapo anyway, though, just 'cos I hate the fucking stuff.

... I like celery. *ducks, runs*

Hey, if you like celery, you just knock yourself out with a big ol' Celery Smorgasbord if that's what turns your crank *g*

I think I have some weird genetic anomaly that makes celery taste really awful, like PTC-tasting only with some other chemical. Most people say it has no taste at all, but to me it's really bitter and nasty.

PTC tasting?

I like celery becasue it has a strong taste. I hardly smell anything, see, which impairs my ability to taste. So I like strong tastes like bitter coffee and really sweet chocolate milk and stuff.

But hey, most people don't think mlik hsa much taste and it's foul to me, so I know what you mean.

There's this chemical called PTC that some people can taste and some can't. The ability to taste it is a Mendelian trait, so we did little experiments with it in my Anthro class a couple semesters ago. They said that Brussels sprouts contain something similar, so PTC-tasters are more likely not to eat them, and thus avoid getting some other chemical that causes goiter. </useless factoid>

Oh, and does regular milk taste nasty to you, or just skim milk? Because I find skim completely undrinkable, but whole milk is yummy (and chock-full of fat, but oh well...)

Re:

All of it. I've tried regular, skimmed, half-n-half, everything. I like yoghurt, or chocolate milk, but normal milk is foul.

Go fig. :)

You know, when people decode exactly what it is that makes different foods palatable or not to different people, I bet there's going to be a goldmine to be had in diet aids. Imagine, you could just take a pill and suddenly high-fat, high-cholesterol foods wouldn't taste good anymore, and carrots would taste like sheer heaven.

Damn, Larry Ellison's right, I should have gone into biotech...
