Yup, I *love* the stuff.  But then Ilike strong flavors and savory 
flavors.  

I have the same intolerant response to too many bland foods that 
bland eaters claim they have to spicy foods--I just can't eat more 
than about three mouthfuls.

Yeah--I'm the one with the nut allergy and the cabbage allergy, and I 
have made dishes that incorporated one or the other, because they 
were popular and people expected them or would eat them.  I have to 
get someone else to do the tasting, of course.

Likewise, see foregoing allusion to dislike of bland foods:  I find 
that I end up making things that people rave to me about that I 
didn't think were that good because of the absence of any discernible 
flavor.

I note Anne-Marie is now on the list:  an example that springs to 
mind, not from feasts, but from an Indian restaurant we all used to 
go to sometimes with the Madrone Culinary Guild was this chicken dish 
that she and Lady Eden were nuts about with the fabulous sauce--which 
I think tastes like undiluted Campbell's Tomato Soup.  :-)  On the 
other hand, I had to get my own personal dish of Chicken Vindaloo.
