It's a phase... my mom at one point went full health nut and put sesame oil over everything bc its good for you and I just hated the taste so much (even though I have no issues with sesame oil itself).
Gurl I have poor health so I'm on healthy food mode all year long but I make them so delicious even my most unhealthy eater friends crave my cooking
Some people just give up on making it tasty when they decide to eat healthy
It's all about understanding how nutrition works
And yes, I agree that sometimes sesame oil ruins the food even though it's not bad ╥﹏╥
Oh, I get you... don't gotta give up taste for health.
My mom actually cooks well, just sometimes she bandwagons health fads a little too extremely.
In the case of the ML though, I think it's lost in context or translation idk, but he probably didn't just make soup, he made medicinal soup (tonic), and there's really no saving flavour for those. So when he whipped it out, it reminded me of my mom loool. I have also been cursed to eat some foul healthy soups.
Oh I understand now
We don't really have those soups where I'm from
That's why I didn't understand at first
Middle easterns love their food too much to cook something that tastes bad just for the health benefits hahaha
Idk why some people think that food should taste like severe depression in order for it to be healthy
You can make something tasty WITH THE SAME HEALTHY INGREDIENTS
It's kinda off the topic, but yeah ╥﹏╥
