Which is why I asked about any pending tasting samples, about which you
consistently demur. I'm left with no option but to use the only venue
left, appearance, which was dreadful.

Glad for ya, sport! Unfortunately, your assertion is unprovable.

I've seen people eat some strange things in my time, so your brag may be
a bit empty.

Nothing points up immaturity and bigotry like your comment right there.

You're bigoted enough for both of us, hon.

Unlike you, yes, I am! I don't understand why you're taking this so hard.

I didn't mention judging first. You did.

Yes, this group is about food, the cooking thereof, and the eating of
it. Eating is done with the eyes. Presentation is everything. The pic of
those potatoes that you ever so proudly provided--and believe me, we
could tell you were beaming and busting your buttons--made them look
like lumpy pallid pudding. Those potatoes were unappetizing and dreadful
to look at. If you hadn't told us they were mashed potatoes, we probably
wouldn't have been able to identify what it was at all. Sorry you can't
deal with it.
