My parents were…not great. One of the ways they were not great was that I wasn't exposed to a lot of new things, so I didn't have Chinese or Mexican food until I was an adult, not to mention Thai, Middle Eastern, Indian, Japanese, and so on.
So my 20s felt like a decade just full of "holy shit this is amazing" and also a peculiar shame for not knowing such things existed.
This was so much fun! Thank you!
