I don't care what y'all think. Nothing about my food being hot or even warm makes it any better for me. I always burn tongue and even if I don't, I really don't enjoy rushing to swallow because my mouth is at risk of inflicting pain. Even when it's slightly warm, I don't like it. I want my food stone cold, no matter what the food is.

I always let my food cool down, not even to room temperature, I let it cool even longer and I eat everything stone cold. It lets me properly savor the flavor, without worrying about too much heat. Eating cold food for me is a relaxing experience, eating hot food is a panic-inducing one, and eating slightly warm food is boring, not any better than stone cold food. I'll even gladly eat food straight out of the fridge and enjoy it! I've been called "crazy" and "perverse" for this many, many times.

I like my food stone cold and refuse to eat it even mildly warm, always letting it cool down way below room temperature. Screw what anyone thinks 😆

Yeah that's definitely unpopular. I could not imagine eating everything cold, like what the fuck?

That is a hot take, irony intended.

There’s probably some good scientific reason for eating meat hot. And coffee? I can kinda deal but the tea? Throw it straight out if it’s not piping hot and I don’t care how the Americans take it.

Sue me
I do indeed eat everything cold. I get soo much shit from my bf for that 😂

I feel exactly opposite to this. If I never ate any cold food again it would be too soon.

Yeah, umm...coffe and tea both. Stone cold, just like my food 😆
Not even joking...

If you are that concerned about burning your mouth or your tongue on even slightly warm food, I can recommend a really good therapist to help you out on that.

I'm currently switching therapists, so not talking to one at the moment. However, I'm almost positive I have some form of OCD, not just because of this.

In case you ever want to try eating warm food again, try putting a stone next to the food in the oven. That way the food will be stone cold and warm at the same time.

I'm the opposite on coffee and tea. Definitely prefer both really warm, but not hot, I don't like either cold, but I like cold coffee less than I like cold tea. I will finish them as a punishment for letting them get cold though.

I don't like food hot enough to burn my mouth, but I definitely far prefer food that's intended to be warm to be warm. I don't hate cold food though and in times of pure laziness, I will eat straight from the fridge instead of heating it up and be fine. Something like a cheeseburger, there's zero chance I'm eating one not at least warm, or like a fettuccine Alfredo where the sauce congeals after it's chilled, hard pass.

I eat a lot of cold meals and this is still wild to me. Definitely an unpopular take.

So when did you find out you had autism?

A single visit Stone Cold Creamery must of triggered it.

I just had a lovely meal of tortellini and the thought of it Stone Cold sounds gross.

By the way I could not get the speech to text to write Stone Cold without capitalizing it. Which I kind of like.

In my American opinion, cold tea is only good if you dump enough sugar in it to give you a heart attack. Unsweetened is just plain inferior to hot tea.

You must love gazpacho

I cannot comprehend this. Seriously, all the more power to you but what the fuck

Character development for Miisha? Neat!

Everyone’s got quirks, yours are harmless.

What about iced coffee? People love that stuff, and she’s prolly no different.

Cold green tea and oolong tea are super common in Asia.

Do you think you have some trauma from childhood of parents serving you food too hot and actually burning your mouth?

Damn! That may be the most unpopular opinion I've seen on this community!

However, you aren't entirely alone. I've known a few people that are right with you. Not many, but enough that I've tried some things cold but fresh, as in putting it in a fridge until it's fully cooled.

Gotta say, I do not share the opinion for the vast majority of foods, and I found that some things are even worse cold than warm (things I didn't like already).

That being said, some soups are nice cold, and some varieties of pizza are as good, though the crust becomes untenable.

THAT being said, you rock on with yo sef. Ain't enough room in the world to be a food snob. You like what you like, and screw what anyone else thinks (just don't do it to them lol)

I used to get ripped on for eating Chunky soup from a can on construction sites.

The caveat it, during winter you need warm food to get your body temp back up, but spring to fall, fair game.

Most foods taste more when at least warm. Notice I said more, not better.

That's because once things get cooler, scent molecules don't hit your nose as well, and fat soluble flavors aren't as available to the tongue. Whether or not that's "better" is subjective, but you can test it out fairly easily

Stone cold toad

Stupid question... What do you do with pizza? Isnt melted stringy cheese enjoyable? Why am I asking, I know the answer already.
Take my upvote and go

What about drinks?

You like your saturated fat stick to your teeth hard. That's fine. Serious question though, how do you stand eating anything high in saturated fat? Or with proteins in liquid that congeal? Or shit waiting for your food's hot emulsions to separate?

Haaaate cold food when it's not ice cream or fruit.

I don't eat everything cold, but I like some foods cold and a day old, like pizza, it almost always tastes better than fresh, in my opinion.

Cold pizza makes me want to vomit. I think most things taste better heated, but I think most people go too hot (my mouth burns easily and nothing has managed to fix that (techniques people recommend, just burning the shit out of my mouth repeatedly (yay, pealing skin constantly!), etc.)).

But you can't have pea soup stone cold, and pea soup is the highest plane of soup

A friend of mine would never drink anything hot or warm. He only ever drank cold drinks.

So, you put all food in the fridge before eating it? Because otherwise it's impossible to cool down below room temperature. 🤓

You could, it would just be very thick.

I think you're tasting a different flavor profile than the rest of us because for instance sugar is less tasteable cold. But that's okay, you enjoy your food whatever way you like it! Also, your way is much easier to deal with than someone who wants their food piping hot. Any delay can overcook or burn their food. Not you! Make ahead, put in fridge, come back anytime between 20 minutes and 24 hours later, it will be nice and cold, safe and unchanged.

Now that's a new and unique villain origin story.

I can get on board with that one. I love the texture of leftover pizza straight from the fridge.

What do you do at restaurants?

I'm thinking of my favourite foods from past to present and all except boiled eggs are better cold.

Roast meat is best from the fridge

Roast potato is best from the fridge

Custard is best after a couple of days in the fridge

Steak is great the day after cooking

Correction: some food are better eaten cold. My personal favorite is cold pasta with optional sauce

This is not an insult. Have you taken any tests to see if you may be autistic? If not, you should.

Outside is often colder than the rooms we live in

I think this wins the comm. Even more than the BJ post

This probably isn't the development people were hoping for, now they're gonna hate me 😭 /s

No...I think I'm just a straight up weirdo

No but I'm fairly certain I have at least some kind of OCD

Nah. I like all food cold :3

I wait. For my food to get stone cold. And eveyone hates me 😆

Actually, yeah, I do that a lot. My bf yells at me for putting hot lasagna in the fridge for hours at a time...
