Why don't you guys use sauces made using tomatoes? I've always hated tomatoes in my sandwich. Forget them falling out... Biting into them is disgusting as well!

[โ€“] Quarky@lemmy.world 30 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Tomatoes are the best, blasphemy to have sauce instead of tomato slices. ๐Ÿ…

[โ€“] Psaldorn@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Hit them with the salt.. flavourbombs.

I would like the time to share my 3d printed cube tomato mold. Get the perfect slice for your sandwich.

Because biting into them is delicious.

Euggh rlly? R u like a goat or something?

[โ€“] Knusper@feddit.de 5 points 1 year ago

I wish. Just chilling on a vertical stone wall, munchin' tomatoes, that sounds like a good day to me.

[โ€“] obinice@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Because then I'd lose the wonderful texture of a good tomato, sauces are just not the same.

[โ€“] pc_admin@aussie.zone 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah they're wet and acidic and taste wack, I ain't putting that shit in my sammich! (Soz if you do like tomatos lol)

[โ€“] Knusper@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I find it interesting that you call them acidic. I've never had a tomato which tasted acidic to me, except maybe if they aren't ripe yet.

In fact, it's quite common to add vinegar to tomatoes (ketchup, tomato salad, various dishes with balsamic vinegar). So, yeah, maybe your sense of taste picks up on some molecule that others can't taste...

I've never really like... eaten acid tbh. I had the druggo kind you put into small paper squares, I wouldn't recommend that either tbh!

[โ€“] Knusper@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

Ah, I thought, you were being fanciful with your wording, because acid simply tastes sour. Lemons, apples, vinegar, they all taste sour, because they contain acid.

I just looked it up, by the way, and tomatoes apparently do contain acid, too. I guess, it's just not usually the prevalent taste to me...

I try, but then people make fun of me for putting ketchup on a turkey sandwich.

[โ€“] eltimablo@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

My cousin always used to eat his thanksgiving turkey with ketchup, despite my mom making the best goddamn gravy in the known universe and slightly beyond.

[โ€“] Spliffman1@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

And rightly so lol

Ketchup tastes good with literally anything.

[โ€“] can@sh.itjust.works -2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

That's not that weird. People eat chicken nuggets with ketchup and hotdogs too

[โ€“] BigBootyBoy@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ketchup and tomatoes are like completely different tastes though

[โ€“] can@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 year ago

Well yeah, give me a tomato any day. I just meant I've seen way weirder/worse.

[โ€“] Bonehead@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Don't get me started on the whole fucking hotdog debacle...I just don't like mustard that much...
