Foods you can eat hot, but not cold or vice versa

Yes cold not hot. Steak tartar

Hot ice-cream is just a no-no for me. It never stays in the cone!😉

Hot dog

When I was at school they used to expect us to eat HOT scotch eggs.

Hot avocado mings.

Nuked in the microwave till red hot.  Squished onto thickly buttered bread with some brown sauce for an epic sandwich.

Just the thought of eating cold baked beans makes my skin crawl.

Same here, cold baked beans. Yuk.

I can't eat beans warmed up they have to be straight out the tin, same goes for rice or custard

Just made puttanesca , huge portion so I can eat it cold at work tomorrow

I like custard.

Onions

love them raw ( chopped up of course)

can’t stand them fried etc , all slimy 🤮

Just the thought of eating cold baked beans makes my skin crawl.

This skill came with age - now I can eat a whole tin straight up from the tin.

Potatoes - love 'em raw. Eat them like an apple.

Raw pasta is a bit crunchy though.

I thought of another, but it's more of a raw v cooked than cold v hot thing. Carrots.  I love them raw, grated in a salad, scooping up hummus or just crunching on them.  I really don't like them cooked though, to me they have a really noticeable unpleasant bitter taste.

straight out the tin, same goes for rice or custard

gross. both hot or cold. especially that ambrosia stuff.  that's basically sick in a tin, minus the carrots

rice needs to be home made. custard too.

Quiche. It's not that I can't eat it hot but why would you? Mrs 100th insists it be heated, I'm getting the patio groundwork started now.

I like posh custard, I really do. Made with Madagascan vanilla pods and all that.  But sometimes, like when you are making an old school trifle - only Birds will do. Luminous yellow and bursting with E-numbers as it may be!

You must have a massive patio.

Onions

What you're taking about there is partially cooked onions.. Properly caremalised or crisped up a bit onion is amazing.

<hr />

There's some right fussy eaters on STW.

Hot salad

Gazpacho.

I like custard

🤣

Not really. I'll eat most left overs cold because I'm too impatient to warm it up.

Also recently discovered that cold baked beans are more flavoursome than when heated.

My mother buys nice pork pies from her local butcher, then heats them in the oven. DO NOT do this!!!!

Thankfully not done it for a while as I'm struggling with my weight as it is, but I can demolish a 6-pack of hot cross buns cold very easily.

Can't recall the last one I had hit and toasted.

Very rare to have hot porridge oats.

Slightly different I don't like grated cheese but love accurate thin sliced cheese from the same block, partner thinks it's weird but then she can't cut cheese plumb or accurate

Im with you on that, grated cheese

A) makes a mess

B) you have to clean the grater which is a pain

A good sharp knife to slice the cheese correctly according to desired specification is far more preferable.

Made from Birds custard powder is OK.  Pre-made stuff in a carton is minging.  Although not quite as minging as ambrosia.

Pease pudding is delicious hot, and actually not bad when it's cold.

What about 9 days old?

Curry. Cannot eat any type of curry cold.  I can eat tandoori chicken and chicken tikka cold though.  Wouldn’t each cold chili or ragu either.

Baked beans, hot yes, cold no.  Same with eggs.

Some people like cold leftover pizza, but I'm not one of those people.

Cup of tea. Rank when less than ‘quite hot’.

But coffee is ok any temperature. Weird.

Definitely this. Nowt worse than being given a cup of lukewarm tea. Well maybe there is, weak, overly milky lukewarm tea.  People who do this are not your friends. I find with coffee, it starts to taste better when it cools a little, or more that the heat stops masking the flavour.  It can be too cold though, there is a goldilocks temperature.

Boiled spuds. Don’t like them hot, can eat them all day long when cold (with congealed butter on them too).

I like a cold bacon sarnie more than a hot bacon sarnie.

Porridge.

Porridge.

My Grandma grew up in a house in Portsoy with a porridge draw. Tin lined drawer in the sideboard where the porridge was poured in the morning and you cut off your piece as and when during the day.

You'd have loved that I expect.

Sausage Rolls (the pasty ones) when hot are up there in the pantheon of godlike foods.

Sausage rolls when cold are a weird, chalky, heartburn-y brick of displeasure.

If you mix them with salsa and spread them over chips, they taste like salty salsa.

Me and the dog fight over left over porridge

A Greggs chicken bake or steakybake are naff when cold especially that chicken gloop

I'm the other way around, like cold sausage rolls but not so keen when warmed up when they just seem to taste greasier.

Oi!

Jazz - delicious hot, disgusting cold

Coffee needs to be HOT, as soon as it becomes merely warm it gives me the gip.  Only occasionally drink tea but I'd say the same for that (I never let it get to that stage).  Baked beans need to be hot as well.  Beans-out -of-the-tin eaters should be on some kind of register.

Cold fried egg.

gag.

Curry. Cannot eat any type of curry cold.

The thought of cold curry doesn't appeal. However, returning from a big ride one day, ravenous for anything, a large helping of last night's curry stuffed into a (heavily) buttered roll was at the time, the greatest thing I'd ever eaten.

So good in fact I'd do it again.

The temperature of food can change the impact it has on the body. Cold starchy foods for example pasta have a slower release of energy than freshly cooked. Same for potatoes. Cold have lower GI than freshly cooked.

Like pot noodle, apple pie has to be hot.

(but never combined)😂

a good, lentiley curry can be quite enjoyable, cold.

One thing that I really know is that on a Saturday morning the cold leftovers of the Friday night takeaway is the food of the gods.

Cold fried egg.

FTFY.

Salad, cold not hot. Specifically the salad that comes with an indian takeaway. Made hours earlier, thrown in a small white plastic bag, then heated to just above warm by the surrounding containers of molten curry lava.

A 'magnum' once melted in our kitchen, the gloop that ended up on the plate was a disgusting mix of the cheapest chocolate, also the sweetest ice cream. I won't even eat one cold now, let alone warm and melted.

Jazz – delicious hot, disgusting cold

Not a food. Although it’s probably got quite a bit of protein in it to be fair… Oh Jazz, sorry my mistake. Still not a food though.
