Particularly whipped cream.
It is basically fat.
Someone explain cream to me. Why eat it?
And add it to things, ruining said things.

 

[Vincent Grayson]

It's fluffy, delicious cream. What's not to like?

 

[TheOfficeMut]

Things taste good, like pineapple pizza.

 

[Transistor]

I don't get your lack of appeal for cream

[Helmholtz]

Coffee with cream is amazing. I don't know why but it is so much better. Screw sugar though.

 

[Mudcrab]

You don't understand why I eat things that taste good?

 

[ReAxion]

key textural component of taste.

But it doesn't.

It tastes like nothing. And air.

Cool Whip + Pumpkin Pie = yes

 

[DonShula]

Put sugar in it and garnish desserts. It's not a difficult concept.

 

[snacknuts]

You answered your own question.

It is basically fat.

 

[wwm0nkey]

Because it's amazing. Whipped icing on cake/baked goods >>>>>>>> normal icing, it's so damn good.

 

[TheOfficeMut]

But it doesn't.

I'm not sure you're eating whipped cream if it tastes like "air." Also never understood something tasting like "air", either.

 

[cirrhosis]

Fresh cream on top of cookie dough is godlike

You are missing out

 

[Netherscourge]

You should watch Varsity Blues.

 

[GTI Guy]

I literally have never known someone to not like whipped cream. This thread is bogus.

Are you eating real whipped cream? I usually add vanilla and sugar. It's sweet and fatty, things we are genetically hard wired to enjoy.

Fake news.

 

[Borgnine]

It's not for eating it's for decorating titties.

 

[Rocketz]

My fiancee doesn't like whipped cream either don't worry.

 

[yongeandcollege]

Cream > milk in coffee.

 

[Septimus Prime]

Oh man, I initially misread the thread title to say you don't get the appeal of ice cream.

 

[shinra-bansho]

But then what you're really saying is you like vanilla and sugar.

 

[PsychoSoldier]

But it doesn't.

Maybe it was overwhipped or something and you lost the delicious taste.

[sixteen-bit]

tastes gud to some people

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

I accidentally took a sip of my wife's coffee the other day and nearly did a spit-take there was so much cream and sugar.

Black as midnight on a moonless night for me.

 

[NandoGip]

Contrary to what common belief, fat is good for you. Cream in particular is sweet and fluffy, so most people like it. It's dairy so maybe not the best for others who are lactose intolerant. I would say that your opinion is not common

 

[zbarron]

But then what you're really saying is you like vanilla and sugar.

And fat. Don't forget fat. It also has a dairy flavor to it. Do you like ice cream?

Maybe it was overwhipped or something and you lost the delicious taste.

Overwhipped whipped cream is butter, which is also delicious.

 

[Glass Shark]

My man

 

[Nonoriri]

Hand whipped cream + Honey Rosemary Shoofly pie from Four and Twenty Blackbirds says you're wrong.

I can understand in other contexts though.

 

[entremet]

Whipped cream is for desserts basically.

Heavy cream adds nice richness to soups and sauces. You can reduce it nicely and it won't break, unlike milk. It's excellent for pan sauces.

 

[theechrisfox]

Good way to ruin nachos. Or any Mexican food for that matter. In my awful opinion.

 

[Akuun]

The more I learn about cooking, the more I realize that a lot of things taste good because it either has sugar, salt, or fat added into it. Usually some combination of the above.

A lot of foods have cream added to it to make it taste better, and to give it a smoother texture. Deep fried foods taste good because of the fat.

Try making mashed potatoes without butter, milk or cream added to it, and you'll immediately notice something missing.

 

[SocksAndShoes]

Whipped cream is sugared fat that you can shoot out of a can. If I have to explain why people like that, you're beyond any hope.

 

[Lucumo]

Someone explain cream to me. Why eat it?

It's less about eating but more about licking it off other people's bodies.

 

[Somnid]

It is fat, fat is used as a flavor enhancer because human palettes are calibrated to it. Cream is just a type of fat that comes from dairy and thus exhibits those flavors. You can try full-fat coconut milk instead if you like a different flavor profile.

 

[capitalCORN]

It is essential in many culinary styles. That mac and cheese you had at that place by the corner probably had loads of heavy cream involved.

 

[SirMossyBloke]

It is basically fat, but it tastes nice. That's it really.

 

[Hindl]

What you got against Eric Clapton?

Nothing, he was just the third best Yardbird

 

[Sinfamy]

There's wrong opinions.

Raspberries and cream is amazing.

 

[Teknopathetic]

"But then what you're really saying is you like vanilla and sugar."

Texture is an important part of the appeal of food. The light and fluffy texture is satisfying.

 

[RedZaraki]

Chive and Onion Cream Cheese

Spread it on whatever the heck. Delicious.

 

[Futureman]

Is there any food where the answer is NOT it tastes good?
