try it with soju
Comment on Is Mexican food uniquely good with alcohol or have I just been conditioned?

No it is not.
Maryland Style Steamed Crabs pair really well with beer.
Steak pairs really well with Whiskey.
Italian style Pasta Dishes pair really well with red wine.
Bacon and Eggs pair really well with Mimosa or Bloody Maries.
I think the only food that doesn’t pair well with alcohol is run of the mill chinese food.

I don’t enjoy alcohol and eating at the same time.
Nor smoking and eating at the exact same time, before I quit.
I have a hard enough time with food in general that the change just makes the whole endeavor off-putting.
That being said, I’m also one of those people who forget to eat and don’t realize its been too long until they’re shaking and lightheaded.

I used not like food and drink together either, I would switch to water at a wedding when food was served but it waned. It mostly went away due to finger food in pubs and now a beer and good grub is heavenly.
I saw a steak and whiskey post and I cant say I could go for spirits with dinner.

Understood. I am on the other end of the spectrum in that I have to force myself not to eat,
We all have our crosses to bear.
