Man I hate tomatoes, but what I really hate is how people are like "hear you loud and clear" and then hand me tomato stuff
#like I actually mean it... and that includes most red sauces... pizza sauce is the only way I don't mind it#but legit; I know people love being dicks about food; but I can't stand spaghetti cause I actually mean it about not liking tomatoes#red sauce sucks to me; it's nasty... so my mom very kindly has made tomato and red sauce for the chicken#and like... can't live without rotel (which is basically just tomatoes)#and like... she know; she knows I don't care for red sauce#but of course... that's only for places it's bad to her#if she likes it then clearly it's an exception#but no... I just... dislike... tomatoes#I don't know why pizza sauce is the one exception... maybe it's the way everything comes together... I don't know...#but legit; the number of tomatoes I want is zero#and if I had an allergy people would have killed me 1000 times over#...ketchup; that's the other way I actually like tomatoes; and by extension bbq sauce (the ones that use it)#I guess I'm ok for some reasons with some processed forms of it#and like listen... I can appreciate a really fresh ripe tomato; great quality and firm... I just can't stand eating it#get why someone else wants to... but I don't#just... what... what does it take; other than me totally taking over 100% of cooking; in order to get zero tomatoes#to have no one say to me 'well I get that; but of course you'll like it like this!'#no... to offer me a taste of something; to explain why this is different... fine; I like trying things#I like turkish coffee very rarely even though I don't like coffee#but like... I just... I want people to just fucking respect me when I say 'I don't like tomatoes'#and... that's half of why I hope I ever make that soap; cause I know it's worse when it's allergies#want to be someone they can come to and say 'your formulation doesn't work for me'#and be able to say 'what does? I'll start researching if I can make something using that instead'#and even if I can't; at least take them seriously and shoot straight with them#hide zero of my ingredients; straight up snap photos of labels for people to examine themselves if they want#...want to show the respect I wish literally anyone would give me
