Food Judge?

PROMPT July 26th

What food would you like to judge in a Cook-Off?

         Simple Answer? Chili. Better answer? Any kind of Pie. Quite a difference, huh!

         Let me explain as I listen to 'Emerson, Lake, And Palmer' - "Karn Evil 9". Chili because I do love spicy food. However, there's a caveat there. I like spicy food, but not too hot that you can't taste the flavor of it. I've seen stuff that would melt a plastic spoon. No, that's not for me. But I do love a good, flavorful chili. So that's a natural.

         However, I have a sweet tooth a mile wide. I've gotten away from chocolate, even though I really have a weakness for it. (I have a KILLER chocolate recipe for you choco-holics out there). So, lacking chocolate, I love pies of almost any kind. Especially Banana Cream, which I can't have any more, I'm allergic to Bananas! But I can taste them at least, just can't overdo it. So pies, yes.

         There's one MAJOR problem with all this. I've lost my sense of taste! No, it's not COVOD-19, I lost it over Christmas last year, and have not regained it. I can taste a little, but my sense of taste is not very sensitive anymore, so maybe I should opt for being a supervisor of judges, and taste only because I want to see what the judges see....
