Today, my dad was putting seasoning salt into his mashed potatoes, when the lid came off and poured a ton of salt into the pot. My parents hate wasting food, so we still had to eat it. I think my taste buds are broken. FML
deviable tells us more.

My dad is very sensitive about his cooking. If I'd refused he would have made my life harder for the next few days. I said I liked someone's steak a little better than his, and it was a year before he cooked another steak. We generally try not to hurt his feelings.

Only one way to tell. Eat some Brussel sprouts and if they're amazing your taste buds are broken.

Did you parents enjoy the food?

Salt isn't food in my book. He didn't have to stir it in. I would have scooped out what of the salt that I could and gone about my merry way. FYL, OP, that sounds vile.

Why didn't they scoop out the part with a ton of salt?

I put butter, salt and pepper. It gives it flavor.

You're eating the wrong brussel sprouts. They are fantastic with a little butter and salt.

Sprouts sauteed in butter is ah-mazing and totally unhealthy!

What an idiot. YDI for sure.
twinny_sc 13
Are you calling OP an idiot for eating the mashed potatoes or OP's dad an idiot for putting the salt in the potatoes. If it's the former, you fail. If it's the latter how does OP deserve it?
THE_A_TEEN 28
Chogle, let me **** with your health and then I will say you deserve it. Does that feel good you *******?

It was brussels sprouts to be exact. And yes I still think they are nasty as shit.
lil_ham1644 29
The more you eat them, you can actually develop a likeness for them. I've heard that anyway... I've always liked veggies.
