My grandmother (who really was a good cook) once accidentally put salt in a dessert she made instead of sugar. I can’t remember what the dessert was, she made lots of them, but I remember biting into it.
My GF in college made me a coffee and put in salt instead of sugar. Three Spoons Full!!! I spit it across the room…
You wouldn’t think it was good, but Tibetans drink salty, buttery tea and it’s delicious.

I only had it with yak butter once, but it didn’t make a huge difference to my Western taste buds.
I imagine American Pie would have had a far more interesting scene if this played out there …
Spicy sweets is my favourite food genre that isn’t taken seriously enough. Try it.
Y’all are blind.
If they’re not side-by-side then it may be harder to tell, but the smell should clue you in. If in doubt, just give it a taste.
“It’s called ‘cinnamon’, Karen.”
This fucked me up once. Raviolis with cinnamon is NOT nice. 💔
My dumb ex-spouse didn’t know the difference between a clove of garlic and a bulb. Recipe called for 1.5 cloves. We had lasagna with 1.5 bulbs.
I don’t see the problem here. More garlic, more good.
I ate it, wasn’t too bad but my ex and our guests preferred less garlic.
I wouldn’t even be mad. My favorite amount of garlic is “too much garlic”
I couldn’t imagine having only one clove in a pasta sauce.
Wife and I make our own taco seasoning, keep it in an empty jar just like the cayenne (same brand as the picture). During a taco night grabbed the wrong jar, dumped pure cayenne in … wasn’t so bad until it became aerosolized and maced the apartment
This is too much spice for the crackers here.
I literally made this mistake 3 weeks ago. Worst oatmeal ever.
Id eat heck out of that
My wife has done this. Grabbed a bottle of Penzy’s Northwood Seasoning instead of the cinnamon. That apple pie was… not so good.
My dad went for cumin instead of cinnamon for his apple crumble. Then he finished his whole bowl telling us it’s fine. Everyone obviously left theirs.
We’ve never let him live it down.
Well, that seasoning is somewhat special. However, a spoon of cumin at least doesn’t make you cry.
I didn’t notice the title at first and thought this was about shrinkflation. One is 69g and the other is 82g.
Cayenne dense!
Also canelle is pretty labor intensive to harvest.
PSA: Cinnamon and nutmeg look identical, but cinnamon in your mashed potatoes tastes weirdly christmas-y. I tested it, sadly.
I’ve never used cinnamon on my potatoes, but I add it to some savory dishes like chill. The key is, cinnamon cuts through, so you need veeeeeeeery little.
You seem to be implying that you put nutmeg in mashed potatoes as a matter of routine.
Wait, isn’t it very common? I always thought of the nutmeg+potatoes as a very common combination
As most of the time, it depends on the country!
Not sure about mash, but definitely have noticed it frequently in scalloped/cheesy potatoes
It is not.
LOL no.
Nutmeg does interesting things to savoury foods. It’s subtle though. It’s often like a background singer making the other flavors better more than being a diva in its own right. I haven’t added nutmeg to potatoes yet, but now I think I might try it. I usually add some fresh ground nutmeg to my spinach and bacon quiche. Nutmeg would also be right at home in a sweet potato pie. So why not mashed potatoes?
I add the tiniest bit of nutmeg to my alfredo sauce. It adds to the complexity of the sauce.
I like to put a little bit of nutmeg in mushroom soup. It adds a little more dimension to the flavor.
I most certainly do!

My cardamom jar is identical to my white pepper.
The fact that the branding is larger than the informative label is fucked up. I wish capitalism would just fuck off.
I feel that rage every time I have to check if the bottle on the shelf in the shower is conditioner or shampoo.
Like who the fuck thinks this is OK.
Here’s a personal example:
