Default Tastes better cold

I put some sugar cookies in the fridge and they taste delicious. I might
have to re-think my obsession with peanutbutter cookies.

Maybe I'll even throw them in the freezer. Emeril Lagasse like to put potato
chips in the freezer. He like Zapp's.

That reminds me of the time when Emeril Lagasse made a lemon mousse dessert.
You can serve it refrigerated or frozen. It was an episode with an all-women
audience (Emeril Live).

I like cold pizza sometimes.

I must say. I used to love cold pizza when I was a kid, but I don't
think I've had cold pizza since I got a microwave oven!

I was fishing for something to answer to and I found this. What
I liked about it was the title - confrontational by nature. Not
saying you're confrontational, only that the title is. I saw, "Tastes
better cold", and instantly thought, "I'll bet it tastes better hot."
I also selfishly wondered about the identity of the food product in
question, if I liked it at all whether hot or cold. In other words,
the title of you post lured me in.

Now, I can't speak directly for sugar cookies, whatever they are
specifically - but I will say that I freeze or refrigerate many things
of a snackish nature such as cookies. I'm not sure how we're
referring to a sugar cookie and what it is exactly, but I have
definitely put store-bought cookies in the fridge and even in the
freezer and pulled them out and ate them in that manner. I think it
slows down the eating process, sort of turning the cookie or whatever
item into a sort of ice cream type thing where it takes a little
longer to eat it so it brings more pleasure to the mouth, body, heart,
and soul of the eater of that particular food. I have eaten store-
bought peanutbutter cookies and raisin/oatmeal cookies straight out of
my freezer. It's nice the way they're almost too hard at the start
but in no time at all the fragile mass-produced convenience-store
items begin to soften for chewing ease but not so much that they
become mush. The frozen cookie concept is a good one.

Default Tastes better cold

Reminds me of the time I ordered with great anticipation a slice of
rhubarb pie, in the summer no less, at a german restaurant. I only
ordered it after ascertaining that they did not ruin their rhubarb pies
with any form of strawberry jello or apples. My mistake was not asking
more questions. I casually put a bite in my mouth of blistering hot
microwaved rhubarb pie that had about 10cups of sugar in the syrupy
fruit pie filling. Gag and Ouch. I love rhubarb cream pie, cold, with
whip cream.

The famous chef Sara Moulton tends to think that most foods tastes better at
room temperature. It's hard to taste some foods that are piping hot, or
freezing cold.

I once tried to make caramel in a microwave (sugar and butter). The plastic
bowl I used melted, because of the intense heat from the sugar.

I've never had warm pumpkin pie. I don't understand why anyone would
eat warm pie.

I love pumpkin pie. I'll eat it warm right out of the oven and also love it
cold the next day....assuming there's any left for the next day.

Yep. Fruit pies are much better cold. I don't see the attraction to hot
pie.

Pumpkin pie filling is a custard... eating warm pumpkin pie is like
eating warm cheesecake... only the TIADers!

True. You don't want the chocolate to dry up, and get chalky. But
refrigeration generally seems to improve the taste of chocolate.

If you can make Hershey's taste like Dove in a refrigerator then Valrhona in
the fridge must be amazing.

For all we know, your breakfast could be the national dish of some small
country out there.

If you have to eat chocolate, it is a lot more palatable if it is
cold. I remember once seeing Paula Dean on TV saying that she left
her chocolate candy bar on her car dash board in the sun because she
just loved melted chocolate. Oh, ugh.

There's a cool appetizer where you just twist some spaghetti onto a fork. I
think you mix cheese into the spaghetti first, and then it's baked.

But sometimes the taste of the fork gets in the way. That's why I love ice
cream cones.

Anything on a stick is usually good. Meat on a stick is great.
