i find it frustrating that my father is a chef
the dishes he makes always taste good, there has never been a dish that i didnt like or enjoy
but whenever i step into a restaurant and taste a dish that my fathers made before, the dish will taste off to me
like it isnt right, like it shouldnt be like this
and this thing has developed to specific brands of ingredients, i can differentiate them and tell that it wasnt produced by a specific brand
my family has always bought the same brand of rice since before i was born, perhaps even before i was conceived
whenever i go to a restaurant and eat that rice, it feels different
it is different, it should be subtle, it shouldnt be so drastic
to me, it feels like a different dish
its the same situation with soy sauce
in my household, my father is the only one who cooks. hes the one who chooses the ingredients
and he always stays with the same brands no matter what
naturally my tastebuds have gotten conditioned to his food, to the ingredients he uses
a few weeks ago i went to a restaurant and used the soy sauce, it wasnt the same
i knew from the first taste that it was too different, it wasnt like the one i always have and pair with my food
it tasted familiar but not the same
it didnt taste like home
so when i die, dont pour me alcohol
dont give me food offerings at my grave
give me a bowl of that special brand of soy sauce on top of the rice my family makes
offer me that, so when im gone, i can still be reminded of my family
so that beyond the grave, i can still experience the taste of my home
give me that, so at my final resting place, i dont forget who i was
so i dont forget who i love
