I can't even remember, (very) expensive food is wasted on me. I enjoy a quality meal, but the top tier stuff just doesn't make any exceptional or special impression with me. It's just good food.
I'm curious, do you think it's more that you notice a difference but it doesn't add much for you or that side by side you couldn't tell which bite came was ordinary good quality food and which was exceptional or special if you were told?
Definitely the former. The difference is not worth the price hike for me. I guess it's like with really high performance cars. I appreciate that a Ferrari f40 is in a league of its own and truly extraordinary, I just can't be bothered to spend that much money on it.
I guess it's the same with many things. The difference between low quality and high quality is really noticeable and usually comes with a substantial cost. But the difference in cost between high (even exceptional) quality and top-tier truly one-of-a-kind is usually very high, and not worth it for me.
So you do enjoy the nicest foods more. You just don't enjoy them proportionally more relative to how much more expensive they are?
