( shyvas' post only partially quoted) Yep! Native Americans have developed quite a number of different varieties of corn. I've eaten blue corn (and even grew some once!!!), but I don't think it tastes different from the usual yellow corn. Since I'm vegetarian, I would have thought I'd be more sensitive to different tastes of vegetable foods! I think it has more of those anthocyanins that are supposed to be good for us, though.
Me too, I usually discern most taste differences but I don't think blue corn tortillas were much different. Well, other than they were the healthier kind
Oh I want allllll of that--except the errands. I'll have fries insteadI ran errands today in RI with my mom, and then I came home kind of late in the afternoon, so I'm having a Beyond burger on a bun with red onions, pickles and mustard, plus a handful of potato chips. Yesterday I had nachos with refried beans, vegan cheddar shreds, onions, black olives, banana pepper rings and hot sauce. They were so delicious. Perfect (American) football food.
I can't remember having any blue potatoes... yet I have a vague feeling that I did have them once.Me too, I usually discern most taste differences but I don't think blue corn tortillas were much different. Well, other than they were the healthier kind
Ever had a blue potato? They too are better due to anthocyanins, but they do taste much different. Like I could "taste" the "blue"
I don't know what it is about fava beans. They're quite interesting-looking, and I once bought a pound or so of the dried beans at my local health food store- I'm often on the lookout for new flavor sensations! As I recall, they were kind of expensive as dried legumes go. I can't remember exactly what they tasted like, and they didn't make me sick, so I finished them. But the taste just seemed... off.. to me. Maybe with the right seasonings, they're not bad; I forgot what (if any) seasonings I used... probably garlic, and maybe some cayenne or savory?...
Googled it, but never heard of it before. I’m really getting an education in this group

All I can say, is that either there isn’t much variety in Aussie compared to other countries, or I’m just not too adventurous with foods…I've had blue corn tacos, chips and also tortillas in both the US and the UK. I remember my late cousin in California who's most favourite style of corn was the white variety. I don't know whether it's called flour corn or just white sweet corn. It tastes far sweeter compared to the yellow variety. Corn tastes far better in the US compared to the variety we have over here in Europe.
