YELLOW on the inside!
Although some people do say chocolate egg.

Nothing quite like family.Without question. Is my sister tactless and tasteless? Frequently.
She has this obsession with calling out my mother's family's WASP insularity... they eat nothing with any kind of seasoning or spice (or flavor, to be honest) other than salt and pepper, won't try anything outside of their narrow little box, won't explore anything the rest of the world has to offer, and turn up their noses at the suggestion that it might actually be good.
Does she say so non-offensively? Of course not. She's my sister.
Reminds me of my family, especially my mom who will stick pretty much to nothing but Chinese food. I think it's one of the things the older generation get(sorry if I'm insulting anyone). My Aunt is happy eating Japanese food and my Dad can be quite happy eating steaks, but too long of western cuisine(like what happened in Italy), and they'll have to find whatever passes for Chinese food in the country and eat it.
I probably have mentioned it before, but the only time I suffered from that was when I was in UK on a school trip. The salmon was over baked and dry, and they kept giving me fried fish and chips. I did try them with mash peas, and I'll say the taste is pretty unique.
But since I can toast salmon better and I can only take so much fried food...yeah I started longing for Chinese food.

And I can't believe my colleague is bringing instant noodles for her driving vacation around Europe(Germany, Switzerland, Austria, France, Netherlands if they can pack the time). But according to her, food in Europe is very expensive(I agree on that), especially in Switzerland and there's only so much European food they can take.
Though I thought the point of a vacation was to spend money?

I have literally never used cruise control. Ever. I don't know how it works in older cars, don't know how it works with my 2018 Fit, and it seems like a dangerous feature.
It must have its uses, but I've been driving with my foot on the gas for 18 years and I feel no particular need to learn cruise control.

You sound like my Dad who has been driving his whole life with it and says cruise control probably helps drivers fall asleep more easily since they don't have to put a foot on the pedal.

FIFYAnd my mom is so bad on the Chinese food thing that she declares she can't live without rice.
I guess the Caucasian version is that you can't live without white bread and/or mayonnaise ?
I don't like mayonnaise but I prefer to have bread in the morning as opposed to traditional Asian breakfasts like fried noodles or noodle soup. Probably because you can eat bread faster and my morning is busy trying to finish breakfast and post in my PBP before I set off for work.

People here have the unfortunate habit of squirtng mayonnaise on anything that has raw lettuce in it. So yes, people do squirt mayonnaise onto tacos here.
