yeah... to be fair... I hate almond nuts, but using almond scent/flavour sounds like a much better alternative (I like that flavour. As long as it's not from the 'nuts' itself)

And ginger might be good... IF I didn't dislike that too... I don't deal well with STRONG flavours. they tend to overpower the flavours rather than add in my case. So ginger and cinnamon as well as most nuts are out for me... (that and ginger tastes like detergent in my opinion :mcheh: )


and yes! FELLOW CINNAMON HATERS UNITE!

ha ha ha, were people giving you flak for that or something? I mean, I might like cinnamon but it's a matter of complete indifference if someone else dislikes it. Different folks, different strokes.
Clove and allspice are probably too strong for you, then, also?

Yea.. Most people get annoyed with me for not liking those things...
But then... Most people don't smell the difference between different french fries well enough to be able to guess which shop they come from... T-T'

Let's just say my nose is strong and strong smells just make the rest icky and spoil your day by 'lingering'...

Sadly most people hate it when I say that and they say I'm too picky... I'm not. I'll eat anything. I just prefer eating it and then being done with it rather than 'tasting' and 'smelling' the food for the rest of the day... (pretty much the only exception to that is chocolate, but even that is HORRID if you've smelled it an ENTIRE day...)


Sorry for my ranting about this...


I've never tried allspice... Clove is good, just a little bit is more than enough though...

If you are that sensitive to scents I would think most spices would have to be very subtle for you -rosemary especially, maybe, that's always been one of the ones you can taste easily even if there's only a little bit in the dish.

Mostly yes... But I do like spices. It's nice that only a Little bit of something can so alter the flavour of a dish... I like that a lot...


but the nose is mostly the reason me and my mum stay away from spice-shops... It's just asking us to sneeze...
Last time I was in one they'd spilled pepper the day before... My eyes were watering up and when asked why I told them it was a really strong peppery smell and after thinking about it, they then told me they'd spilled a single container the day before and had already cleaned it up and aired out the place. They didn't smell anything (neither did the friend that entered. But she knows my nose)... That's when I finally realized it's not normal to respond like that... :mccry:

*glares at nose*
I'm never quite sure if I'm liking my nose or not... It's handy yes, but in today's world it's really not... But I figure it's better than not smelling at all... Food tastes SO bland whenever I do have a horrid cold...

It would be amazing for if you were going into chemistry. Very helpful there, although maybe not very pleasant always. >.<

I would think most department stores would also be hazardous, the way they spray air freshener and perfume samplers all over

Akili: Honestly, I think cinnamon would work best for this c: All the sugar would go well with the spice!

Also, I've actually never been to their website, only the youtube channel. It has some funny and good stuff! :D

asha: Click bait? :o

Vin: I think I understand uxu Some people also pick on me for not liking bacon to its max. I mean, I like bacon. But to go crazy over it...
