Never seen IRL a Gen Z that drank soylent, know some Gen Z that liked blue cheese and aged meet.

Although I have seen so many zoomers that love vaping and it's quite concerning, I always see them on their phones while vaping at every breath, even ones that are like 12-14 are doing it. I saw maybe a couple of them do it before Covid, now it's the vast majority.

To answer the first question, although I'm not even remotely Gen Z: I don't like bleu cheese because, when I put it in my mouth, every nerve in my body between my stomach and my brain screams "this is not food, get it out of your mouth right this minute". In very dilute forms, like a tiiiiiny bit in a sauce, I can sometimes avoid this reaction, but very rarely.

It doesn't even rise to "I don't like the taste". It's a primal gag reflex.

They're acquired tastes. Same reason they don't like real tobacco but love their fruit flavored nicotine juice, don't like good quality black coffee but love oversweetened starbucks yoghurt shit with 700 calories a cup, etc etc. They literally aren't old enough to appreciate nuanced flavors. They have the taste of a small child.

Possibly autistic opinion: I don't have the time or the fucks to give for "acquired tastes".

You know what "acquired taste" means? It means you were dumb enough, desperate enough, or young enough (read: parents made you eat it) to keep eating something you didn't like until you convinced yourself it was good.

That's hipster bullshit to me.

I am not a picky eater. Not by any stretch. But some of the quintessentially "acquired tastes" like bleu cheese or limburger I do not care for, because I tried them, I didn't like them, I have virtually infinite other things I can have instead, so why would I keep eating them?

This idea of forcing yourself (or being forced) to eat something despite hating it until you "convince yourself" you like it is bullshit, no one thinks of that when they talk about acquired tastes. Your taste preferences change over time, that's a completely normal thing and you don't even have to force it. It goes the other way around too, I used to love ketchup when I was a kid until one day I noticed I didn't like it so much anymore, and that was the last time I put ketchup in my food. I didn't "convince" myself that ketchup was bad, I didn't give a fuck. That was just my genuine reaction to the sensation in my tastebuds at the time.
I also used to hate mushrooms and felt sick eating them. So I avoided them for years, if any were in a dish I was eating I'd leave them on the side. Until years later I noticed they actually add a pretty nice aroma to the food, and when I tried some I liked it. Again, I didn't have to psyop myself into doing it and I certainly didn't try to stuff myself with mushrooms to make myself like them.

With more controversial food like moldy cheese it's a bit more complicated because it's disgusting to most people at first sight, and that's fine, you don't have to like it. But that's a pretty extreme example. I don't think the term "acquired taste" is reserved for weird gross food, I think for instance coffee is a prime example of an acquired taste. Most people start out not liking it but find a fondness for it when they're older.

Edit: fucking hell, I lost half of this autistic diatribe because some nigger decided to steal the .net domain at the worst possible time

Not all blue cheese is good cheese either. I won't name names I'd pretend to remember, but some of it is just flat boring bitter, some of it was really, really damn good.

I don't think I've tried aged meat yet though.

Saint Agur is pretty good, and so is gorgonzola piccante.

Ever make Devils on Horseback? Fuck yeah that's good shit. There are a lot of variations of it, but I think dates, blue cheese, and bacon are pretty common.

I don't like blue cheese because it tastes like vomit, but I'm pretty sure it's my personal taste buds since my brothers like it. Aged meat is really tasty though.

There seems to be a societal push towards eating spic food and food absolutely blasted with sauce/spices in an effort to kill taste buds. My guess is that Mexican food is a fad that works for the corpos because they can cheap out on ingredient quality and chef quality. Meanwhile traditional food taste blander because it's not covered with salt, spice and sugar, and seen as "colonizer food".

Niggers put loads of sauces and spices on food because their ancestors were given rotten food on the plantations. Behold the invention of goyslop. Bland or outright awful food disguised with cornsyrup and spices. And americans have convinced themselves this is good food and everyone else is bland. Americans always have a seziure upon seeing real italian food. They don't understand that good ingredients have flavour on their own and don't need spices and sauces. That's why wypeepoo don seesan day fud. Because we're not eating rot, nigger.

I wondered why there was a sudden uptick in Anti-Zoomer rant threads on the farms recently until I realized that older millennials are starting to hit their 40s now. Kids these days are destroying the world with their rap music and pop-tarts or whatever. In regards to the food argument, hasn't blue cheese and aged meats always been an acquired taste for most people? Eastern Europeans who live in post-Soviet villages will obviously have a better appreciation for food like that than the average Western European urbanite or New Yorker because of course they would. It's the same thing with stuff like oysters or balut or any other regional-dependent food.

Cuisine has always changed every generation in conjunction with culture anyway. Baby boomers started eating and promoting what was previously seen as peasant Italian foods in the late 40s and 50s even though French food was the international template for their parents. Now we gorge on pizza and lasagna without any thought that it was once the lowest of the low goyslop. Mexican food is now being picked as the hot new thing by a newer generation and probably some other nation's food traditions will be randomly picked once Generation Alpha starts becoming adults. Things change, and often not in ways you'll like but that's how it is on this bitch of an Earth.

From what I've seen IRL zoomers tend towards what I consider convenience/comforts dishes from my childhood except with more fresh greens than I and my peers were used to. They're also a bit more picky about certain flavors, but more open to foreign dishes and spices.
There's also been a slow change in our boomers: they've slowly been warming up to sushi (which is very much in line with our traditional flavor profiles and serving preferences despite the cultural distance), and the anti-garlic holdouts are very few and far between by now.
 
Well, now I have another reason to hate those goddamned zoomers! I love me some blue cheese (especially if it's smoked blue cheese) and aged meat, my usual go-to pizza consists of blue cheese, pepperoni, chopped garlic, and bacon along with usual mozzarella/sauce base.

As far as Gen Z hating those things is concerned I have no idea as to why that is, but on the other hand I know of a few millennials that hate blue cheese.

When I was growing up my family made sülzen salad. It was sülzen, kürbiskernöl, vinegar, onions, and whatever veggies we decided to put in. Sometimes even potatoes.
That shit was the best, it sucks that finding good headcheese is hard where I am.

It’s not like a ton of vinegar, just enough for it to go well with the oil and stuff.
But that green pumpkin oil, that stuff is the best.
