Taste varies from person to person on a great many things. But there are some things that seem to be loved by all. Things that are just good. Things that no one can see a downside to.
I say no one. There are always a few oddballs…
Crunchy Nut Cornflakes
Possibly the greatest breakfast cereal there has ever been. You needn’t bother ever getting another brand.
Cats
It’s maybe understandable when people say that they prefer dogs to cats. That doesn’t make much sense to me, but it’s fair enough. However when people say plainly that they do not like cats or kittens at all, I immediately know that they are insane and not to be trusted.
However, too much love of cats can also be a sign of madness.
Sex
Who doesn’t love it? Crazy people or people that have had so much that it’s got boring and they need to find a new thrill.
Chinese Food
By which we mean the Westernised stuff that we call Chinese that is invariably cooked and served by Chinese people yet bears little resemblance to actual Chinese food. That stuff. That glorious goop of black bean, sweet and sour, satay, chili and all the rest of it. Joy
Carlsberg
Everyone has their favourite tipple. I would say I really enjoy Amstel but can not stand Fosters. Other people have the opposite taste. However, I am yet to meet anyone who doesn’t like Carlsberg. It’s no ones favourite, but everyone likes it. I suppose in a way their claim to be ‘probably the best beer in the world’ might be true.
Queen
Little divides opinion quite like music. Yet, the band Queen seems to be on everyone’s beloved playlists. Classics like ‘We Will Rock You’ and ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ are karaoke favourites.
Boobs
Everyone loves them. Men obviously do. Women love their own and each others. Strangely, no one knows why.
Turkey Twizzlers
I am only aware of one person who disliked these: Jamie Oliver. I bet he never even tried one. He just blasted them because of stupid health reasons. It’s our choice if we want to eat rubbish Jamie Oliver! How dare you ban one of the tastiest treats ever concocted!? NO! Fruit will not make it better! Get on your knees and beg Bernard Matthews to bring them back. NOW!
Free Stuff
Capitalism sucks. Fat cats lining their pockets while those of us on normal wages have to front the jacked up prices on everything.
In an ideal world, everything would be free, like in Star Trek where money has been abolished and everything wanted or needed can be created out of nothing using replicators. That’s a future we should be aiming for.
So when we do get a freebie now and then, it just feels so good, like we’re living a part of that distant utopian future.
KFC
The Colonels secret recipe of herbs and spices is a marvel. Unless you live in one of those silly countries that don’t cook it right. I get genuine withdrawal symptoms if I haven’t had a KFC meal in a while. One day, I will get myself two legs, two thighs, two wings, a breast and whatever else is needed to construct an entire KFC chicken, then smother it with KFC gravy and settle down to enjoy.
