Would've liked to know this 2 days ago before I filed my taxes.
Well I'll try it out next year.

It's just something I never grew out of. I need it to soften and enhance the taste of whatever I'm eating, mostly meat or fried dishes. If I don't put it on the stuff I usually eat, then eating food feels like a chore and tastes kind of bland.
Not that I put it on everything I eat. Just that I use it on a lot of the stuff I eat.
Pineapple on pizza. I used to hate it as a child since the fruity taste seemed weird on it. After a deep introspection, I came to accept that it's still food and the taste ended up growing on me.
Oh, but I still put ketchup on pizza, with pineapples or whatever on it.
Reminds me of my art professor's story about getting her doctorate, in which a bunch of tenured professors came together to review her work to give her the degree. One professor disagreed with giving her doctorate because apparently she didn't look like she had a tough time getting it. That sent my art professor over the edge because she'd worked so hard and suffered so much for it so she started crying in front of the professors and told them she wasn't going to bother getting her doctorate anymore and that she was quitting right there and then. The other tenured professors were quick to convince the other to change their mind and eventually gave the degree, but my art professor still remembers how shitty it was to decide something so important to her on the basis that she suffered much less than her peers in producing something good or better work.
