    My chemistry prof would repeat over and over that “bitter is poison”. Bitter is one of my favorite flavor types, after spicy. If I lived before the internet I totally would have died after eating a tasty salad of poison xD

      Dose makes the poison. Most bitter flavors (that you eat) aren’t really meant to discourage you from eating them, it’s really meant for insects.

      Plant: I will make an unappetizing flavor to prevent myself from getting eaten

      Humans: finally, some good fucking food

      Almonds over here telling everyone that the poison plant is totally fine and tasty! xD

      I agree though bitter is part of the spice of life and a very good flavor
