Yes... and no.
While I insist that my steak be seasoned with freshly ground pepper, I am just as delighted by a Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese from McD's!
I like it all!

Whoops, did I say that out loud? What I MEANT to say was that you are obviously a man of (with?) very discriminating tastes!

Almost. I'd say, rather than discriminating, the word 'selected.' I'm willing to try anything and don't ascribe to critic's recommendations. 'Fast Food' is just as welcome to me as fine cuisine. That said, I can and do discriminate between a Hebrew National Hot dog and one made by Oscar Myer, or a pizza made with cheddar cheese and one made with mozzarella.

I am one of those people who, when blindfolded, would probably mis-identify scrambled eggs as liver or something. You've probably never used a paper towel as a coffee filter either, huh?

Certainly have (well, as a tea bag. I don't drink coffee.) I eat rat-on-a-stick sold by street vendors in Vietnam and God-knows-what sausages sold by street vendors in Borneo. But when I cook for myself or others, I want the flavors to be exactly what I want them to be if I can do it. A touch of fresh tarragon really brightens up a tuna sandwich but I'll use dry tarragon if I absolutely must.
Wanna come over for dinner?
