    Americans slapping the same spice rub on every single thing upon seeing someone use herbs or even just consider what spices/sauces goes best with what they’re preparing: Hehehe those people eat bland food.
    I get that it’s a response to some movement in America where a bunch of white people find mayo spicy, but seriously the recipes I see people post… You’re like those white dudes who buys those terrible hot sauces with artificially boosted capsaicin levels in order to prove something, but with spices.

      smoked paprika and garlic powder are so epic, but so is whatever is the Next Thing (in 2010 it was sriracha, in 2020 it was gochujang, now it’s za’atar maybe? though that’s too difficult to source for your average foodbro)

        I love smoked paprika. I prefer regular garlic, but to each their own. I don’t put either in everything.
        I still have a bottle of extra hot sriracha and tbh the taste has worn off, or maybe they’ve changed the recipe. Kinda just tastes like ketchup, which I’ve never been a big fan of
