I don’t care what y’all think. Nothing about my food being hot or even warm makes it any better for me. I always burn tongue and even if I don’t, I really don’t enjoy rushing to swallow because my mouth is at risk of inflicting pain. Even when it’s slightly warm, I don’t like it. I want my food stone cold, no matter what the food is.
I always let my food cool down, not even to room temperature, I let it cool even longer and I eat everything stone cold. It lets me properly savor the flavor, without worrying about too much heat. Eating cold food for me is a relaxing experience, eating hot food is a panic-inducing one, and eating slightly warm food is boring, not any better than stone cold food. I’ll even gladly eat food straight out of the fridge and enjoy it! I’ve been called “crazy” and “perverse” for this many, many times.
I like my food stone cold and refuse to eat it even mildly warm, always letting it cool down way below room temperature. Screw what anyone thinks 😆

I cannot comprehend this. Seriously, all the more power to you but what the fuck
If you are that concerned about burning your mouth or your tongue on even slightly warm food, I can recommend a really good therapist to help you out on that.
I’m currently switching therapists, so not talking to one at the moment. However, I’m almost positive I have some form of OCD, not just because of this.
I feel exactly opposite to this. If I never ate any cold food again it would be too soon.
I don’t like food hot enough to burn my mouth, but I definitely far prefer food that’s intended to be warm to be warm. I don’t hate cold food though and in times of pure laziness, I will eat straight from the fridge instead of heating it up and be fine. Something like a cheeseburger, there’s zero chance I’m eating one not at least warm, or like a fettuccine Alfredo where the sauce congeals after it’s chilled, hard pass.
That is a hot take, irony intended.
There’s probably some good scientific reason for eating meat hot. And coffee? I can kinda deal but the tea? Throw it straight out if it’s not piping hot and I don’t care how the Americans take it.
Yeah, umm…coffe and tea both. Stone cold, just like my food 😆
Not even joking…This raises further questions for me, since I’m a wanna-be coffee afficianado. You get much lower extraction at lower temperatures, with both coffee and tea. Do you grind coffee finer to compensate, or do you just enjoy weaker beverages? Also, do you mean room temperature, tap-water cold, or actually chilled? How do you make coffee (and tea)? Thank you in advance!
I have a coffee machine, so I make a pot of coffee, pour myself some, straight into the fridge with that mug. When it’s cold, I add milk and drink it almost like a shot, all at once. I’m just weird like that…
With tea, I of course prepare it with hot water. Then remove the teabag, straight into the fridge. When it’s cold, I enjoy my tea :3Making coffee/tea like normal, then chilling it makes a lot more sense, with your specific preference. Iced coffee is also arguably the least unpopular part of your proclivities. Still not for me, but you go on with your cool self!
Most foods taste more when at least warm. Notice I said more, not better.
That’s because once things get cooler, scent molecules don’t hit your nose as well, and fat soluble flavors aren’t as available to the tongue. Whether or not that’s “better” is subjective, but you can test it out fairly easily
Cold green tea and oolong tea are super common in Asia.
Yep. Bubble tea is the superior form of all tea. Taiwan fucking perfected tea. Everyone else is living in denial.
What about iced coffee? People love that stuff, and she’s prolly no different.
My wife likes iced coffee, too. I’ve tried it, I don’t hate it… but it isn’t for me. Not knocking those who do like it. I just prefer hot.
There’s also cold brew, but I’m not sure if cold brew is meant to be drank cold, or if it’s just brewed cold and it gets heated up. I imagine the former. That’s probably fine too.
In my American opinion, cold tea is only good if you dump enough sugar in it to give you a heart attack. Unsweetened is just plain inferior to hot tea.
I’m the opposite on coffee and tea. Definitely prefer both really warm, but not hot, I don’t like either cold, but I like cold coffee less than I like cold tea. I will finish them as a punishment for letting them get cold though.
Yeah that’s definitely unpopular. I could not imagine eating everything cold, like what the fuck?
Haaaate cold food when it’s not ice cream or fruit.
Sue me
I do indeed eat everything cold. I get soo much shit from my bf for that 😂I used to get ripped on for eating Chunky soup from a can on construction sites.
The caveat it, during winter you need warm food to get your body temp back up, but spring to fall, fair game.

No I don’t. My preference for stone cold food never changes. Not even during winter, idgaf
I’m not gonna have hypothermia on the job, sorry. Same sorta reasoning as not wanting to burn your toungue. It’s for your (my) safety.
You clearly don’t work in the absolute freezing cold like this person does…
In case you ever want to try eating warm food again, try putting a stone next to the food in the oven. That way the food will be stone cold and warm at the same time.
At that point, I’d just rather eat the hot stone. And I like neither hot food nor stones…
That rocks.
I eat a lot of cold meals and this is still wild to me. Definitely an unpopular take.
Character development for Miisha? Neat!
Everyone’s got quirks, yours are harmless.
This probably isn’t the development people were hoping for, now they’re gonna hate me 😭 /s
You must love gazpacho
Do you think you have some trauma from childhood of parents serving you food too hot and actually burning your mouth?
No…I think I’m just a straight up weirdo
So when did you find out you had autism?
Or Arfid at least.
A single visit Stone Cold Creamery must of triggered it.
Now that’s a new and unique villain origin story.
I just had a lovely meal of tortellini and the thought of it Stone Cold sounds gross.
By the way I could not get the speech to text to write Stone Cold without capitalizing it. Which I kind of like.
Lol, stone cold tortellini are a classic for me. No matter if they’re from a plastic bag (boiled in water) or in a can (pre-cooked with sauce), I always have them stone cold. Don’t even care, it’s just better
Damn! That may be the most unpopular opinion I’ve seen on this community!
However, you aren’t entirely alone. I’ve known a few people that are right with you. Not many, but enough that I’ve tried some things cold but fresh, as in putting it in a fridge until it’s fully cooled.
Gotta say, I do not share the opinion for the vast majority of foods, and I found that some things are even worse cold than warm (things I didn’t like already).
That being said, some soups are nice cold, and some varieties of pizza are as good, though the crust becomes untenable.
THAT being said, you rock on with yo sef. Ain’t enough room in the world to be a food snob. You like what you like, and screw what anyone else thinks (just don’t do it to them lol)
A friend of mine would never drink anything hot or warm. He only ever drank cold drinks.
