QuoteGood, bad, beautiful, ugly and a few hundred other words related to the way things look, sound, and taste, and smell might be sufficient for ordinary description, but the professional opinion-giver has to keep things vivid and fresh. To do this, they might come up with new or unusual words, or uncommon metaphors...

WTF is the point of this thread?!?!  ???

I hate the way cooking shows (and, presumably) have taken to referring to meat (including fish) as "protein." Meat isn't made soley of protein - but it does contain a lot of it. It's silly.

Worst offender is the invention of the word "melty".

Also, I thought I was the only one who hated the use of the term "protein" on menus.  I don't know what it is, but I hate that.

Melty? I am not sure I've seen that. Now that you mentioned it, I will probably see it everywhere.
