Taste Test results!

Back in July, I had some brave people over for a blindfolded taste test. We compared Coke v Pepsi, Mayo v Miracle Whip, orange peppers v yellow peppers, among other items.

But the only pairing that fits the formula "X Tastes like Y Smells" was the outcome of the Tecate v Miller Lite bracket.

While generally a wee bit snobbish about food and beverages, I will drink cheap beer. Especially if it's hot out, and even more so if I'm at a DC United tailgate. MMMM, frosty cans of Tecate!




Unfortunately for me, any shred of brand loyalty I had was shattered: Tecate
tastes more like wet dog smells than Miller Lite tastes like wet dog smells. (This must be where the wedge of lime and salt come in.)

Stonyfield Farm Organic Fat-Free Key Lime yogurt

tastes like lime-scented bathroom cleaner smells.



A sad way to start my day.

Chianti

tastes like lilies smell.

Pizza-flavored Goldfish crackers

taste like pencil shavings smell.

Gin and Italian Lemon Soda with ancient ice cubes (aka homemade Tom Collins)

Tastes like my friend's apartment building smells. (Cleaning supplies and mustiness would be an appropriate analog)

Pâté

Tastes like cat food smells. (Tip: thanks, @AtomiClash is a ball-cutting cybersuccubus, Jezebel board, Arf? Barf)

Fanta Grape

tastes like nail polish remover smells.
