[snipped list of food atrocities]

The problem may be that they just don't understand food. I wonder if
they even know what rosemary tastes like when they say they don't like
it. They also appear to really enjoy sweet things to the extreme.
The watered-down ketchup thing was just gross though. I'm going to
have nightmares about that.
