Food?

[3 Sheets To The Wind]

i was just sitting here after a smoke and listening to music and the answer hit me like that as soon as i previewed the thread. its simply because when the food was made, everyone forever has always just eaten it after its cooked. so then were used to eating it warm. so if its gotten cold from sitting out we just warm back it up.

Why did people start heating it up though?

Even the monkies? Wonder what kind of microwaves were in style during the cro-magnon days?

well no back then what they would do is make fires and het it up on those. and why heat it up in the first place? just cause raw meat isnt good

Coffee can taste good cold, but I prefer it warmed up. I thought it was just me.

What about raw noodles???

Cooking food kills off any germs and bacteria that may be in food. So there is probably a health reason behind why we like hot foods. Who figured this out way back when is beyond me. Probably some caveman dropped his wooly mamoth burger in the fire by accident and when he pulled it out thought it tasted better. Sice he liked the taste better he started doing it all the time and then noticed he wasn't getting the stomach cramps and explosive diarhhea anymore. "Ugg like fire meat, Ugg no like shit flying from Uggs ass, Ugg only eat fire meat from now on"

Just a theory.............

3 sheets had the right idea.

Its because of fat, especially animal fat. We heat up food (savory, like meat, pizza, etc) thats been in the fridge or room temperature because that fat has hardened. Hardened animal fat is not even close to as tasty and juicy as liquified savory fat.


Fat is also the same reason we let meat and other savory foods rest when removing them from the oven. The fat needs to thicken enough so it doesnt all run out of your dinner upon the first cut, making the rest of your food dry and not as savory.

Same with cheese. You would never have cold hard cheese at a cheese and wine tasting party. Cheese needs to be room temperature because the fat releases more flavor at room temp(which is very much appreciated among cheese connoisseurs) than if it were cold.

With things that are sweet, fat adds body and richness but the flavor is more in the sugars and such (like vanilla, chocolate, cinnamon, mint, all sweet spices and such that compliment sugar), not the fats.

Maybe they'd like it more if we were to heat them up a bit first
