Foods and drinks that only taste good in certain situations

[BETTERnot]

Food and drink.
It only taste good if or when?

i`ll start for me its the following.

Lucozade only taste`s good if im unwell.
Taco/ fajita wraps tast better cold.
Jacket potato taste better homemade, mirocwave ones yuk.
Hot lemon only taste good when ill.

Fish and chips are only good if you've been for a long hike in the rain and are starving and cold

Tapas has to be eaten outside, in Spain

Greek salad tastes better in.... Greece

As someone who doesn't like orange juice at all in day-to-day life, I still really enjoy it as part of a hotel continental breakfast!

Yes. Carrots in baton shapes are much nicer than sliced carrots, which are annoying.

Tapas and a jug of Sangria in the sun in Spain.

Gelato in Rome.

A free alcoholic drink of anything in a Casino in Vegas.

Used to be a San Miguel at the Spoons in an airport departure lounge, but they don’t stock it anymore. 😬

A fresh cream scone and jam in Devon or Dorset (always jam first then clotted cream).

A real fresh cream cake from Sainsbos to scoff at home after the weekly shop, till they got rid of the counters. 😢

Sounds amazing. I was being sick after I gave birth both times so none for me. Nothing until the next day!

I say that tea tastes at it's finest after lunch. Definitely not a morning drink for me.

Red wine tastes better when it's raining. Summer or winter. Rain is needed. My best glass of red wine was under an awning in Florence on Easter weekend 2005 on my own with a book. Rain sheeting down.

"Gin and tonic only tastes good when I am with my sister. "
Ah that's sweet 😊

An abvious one, but mulled wine or glühwein only tastes good when you're with other people, skiing or at a Christmas market or something when it is really properly cold. Otherwise it's just- hot wine in a cup wtf?

Carrots are nicer cut into batons then circles .

Totally agree about water.

Fusilli by far the most disappointing of the pastas.

I think most of these things taste nice all the time. Some people are just making a poor version of them.

Mushy peas taste best at the fair with mint sauce. Pasties taste best sitting on a wall overlooking the sea in Cornwall. Trifle tastes best straight out of the big bowl in the fridge.

Fanta outside the UK.

A fry up breakfast in a greasy spoon or delivered from one.

Fish and chips are not the same since they banned newspaper wrapping. I doubt any of the staff knows how to make a bag for the chips.

As a teen I had horrendous periods, including projectile vomiting, but by 5pm I could eat and my dad would go to the Chinese and I always had chicken and pineapple with chips and no food has ever matched it since.

Fish and chips out of the paper, sat outside on the sea front (I’ll take riverside if no sea nearby). Just not the same on a plate.

Exactly what I was going to say.

Ice-cold vodka on the other hand- tastes good anywhere.

Kebab at 2am

Chips at the seaside

Rosé. Delicious in Spain or Greece. Tastes like sweet acid at home.

I only like Pepsi when eating KFC

Tea and toast tastes better if you've just had a baby!

Gin and tonic only on a Friday night.

I never even want it on any other day, but when it's Friday then nothing else will do!

For me, coffee should ideally be served in chunky pottery mugs, and tea in fine bone china.
Both seem to taste better that way.

Pepsi Max in Centre Parcs😂

I agree.

I was about to say the same about water. Why does it taste different in a mug compared to a glass?

Yes!! I came here to say this. Ice cold, full fat coke, somewhere hot and sunny.

Milk only tastes good when I’m pregnant.

In my case anyway. I loathe milk normally but drank, and loved, a pint a day when I was pregnant.
