Individual taste.

I'm the only person I know who likes pumpernickel. It's a sliced brick of rye. It's not trendy, it's not pretty, it's not even delicious, and half the time it's not even in stock at Coles. But I'm dedicated. I don't inflict it on my friends and coworkers, other than the smell of it in the toaster.

Shared enjoyment is the best. The more obscure and particular the taste, the more the joy in finding kindred enjoyment.

  1. I like pumpernickel! But I haven't had it for a long time. Sliced thinly with cream cheese. And salmon if you're gonna be fancy.

  5. Come on, you eat raw garlic! Try pickled garlic with whatever savoury thing you put on it next time.
