Isn't that the same for literally everything that we eat?

Random thought: like eggs, depending on how you cook the tofu determines how good it is.

Lightly fried tofu flipped over a few times? Delicious. Tofu while it's limp from, gross.

Uh, no? There are all kinds of foods that are delicious exactly as they are. Most fruits, plenty of vegetables. Noodles need only butter. Meat needs only salt. It's pretty sad if you need to add 17 things to make anything taste good.

Everything needs some level of processing to taste good. Noodles are made from more than one ingredient so that doesn't count. Meat is great with only salt yes, but even better with a pepper corn sauce or something.

The same can be said for oats, it's fine with water and sugar or salt. But better with other things. When you combine ingredients you make something greater than the sum of its parts.

I imagine you have an empty spice cupboard and live on butter and noodles.

That's pretty rich coming from the person that apparently only eats hot pockets and other ultra processed garbage.

Never eaten a hot pocket in my life. I don't even know what they are and I've never seen them in the shops here.

Do you know what a spice is? Do you know what a herb is? When would you use an aromatic? What is mirepoix?

I bet your soup is butter and water and not praise worthy at all.

I literally cannot imagine being this pathetic.
