Not quite in the spirit of what you’ve asked, but I think this still applies:
Cold food. I have no problem with it. I get distracted by kids and my wife gets worked up about how I could come back to cold food and not heat it up. Doesn’t bother me.
Same food every day. I’ve spent years eating tuna sandwich and an apple for lunch every day of the working week. “Don’t you want variety?” Nope. I also used to bulk cook food. So even my dinner was the same every day. Didn’t bother me.
I’ve been eating the same three “meals” every day for about four years now. Lunch is the main meal, the other two are more like snacks. No processed foods, in that the packages have only one or two ingredients listed.
It’s convenient, because I know exactly what I’m going to buy at the store each week. I never waste food. It’s fast, because I make it the same way every day. The main meal takes just under twenty minutes to prepare, including cleaning up the kitchen.
It’s similar to the way Einstein had a closet full of the same suit, so he didn’t need to think about what he was going to wear that day. Except I’m an idiot.
This all started when I decided that food is not entertainment, and food is not reward. Because, that’s how I often treated food in the past.

I cook a lot (not a chef by any means but just a hobby home cook).
Heat masks a lot of flavor. I always think that if the food that I make tastes bad cold, it was shit food to begin with and the heat just hid it.
Texture is another thing, but my food goal is that my meals taste as good cold as they do hot.
I love tuna but im worried about mercury poisoning :(
I still eat tuna but im weary of eating it for longer than a week at a time.
same food every day gang! it’s cheap, nutritious, delicious, and a breeze to prepare, what’s not to like?
Brother
If by cold food you mean room temperature food then I definitely agree. Doesn’t bother me in the least. But if you mean fridge cold, most times I’ll want to heat it at least to room temperature first.
Have you ever had cold fried chicken that’s still crispy and then drizzled with hot sauce? Or cold pizza? Either of them straight from the fridge?
So. Fucking. Good!
I like cold pizza, but I’d still prefer it slightly heated to room temperature. Can’t say I’ve tried the other one, though.
Valid! I think most people prefer a warmed meal, tbf. And most foods ARE better that way!
i can’t eat the same thing for more than 3 days without it making me gag
