This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Alternatively, instead of overloading on salt: for non-bland food:

  1. Get local in-season produce. E.G. Fresh tomatoes vs canned or long distance imports is a night and day difference. Also can be cheaper and you also know that the money is staying local, not feeding some rich fuck's investments.

  2. Mother. Fucking. GARLIC.

  3. Optionally, find a good chili oil.

fuck, I forgot to put garlick in my lentils, that's why they were tasting a bit bland

The first recipe I found in a quick search for lentil soup has garlic in it. (And lentils, coriander, cumin, paprika, bay leaves, lemon juice, tomato paste, soup stock, celery, an onion and a carrot.)

If we're speaking of savoury food, have to say that paprika is another one of those baseline spices that shows up all over the place.

shit, I also forgot about the bay leaves! I did use paprika, though haha

Lol sorry I thought you were being sarcastic.
