Master Chef
I'm with picky eaters. Also those who insist that something is only right if it is prepared the way THEY fix it.
The cinnamon in "spaghetti sauce", by the way, is not supposed to taste like Italian spaghetti sauce. It is a Greek dish, known variously throughout the U.S. as "Greek Spaghetti", "Greek Chili", or "Cincinatti Chili". It isn't supposed to taste of old Italy or even New York Italian-American. It's just that English speakers mostly cannot imagine being able to read Greek, so depending on where they settled, Greek restauranteurs named it whatever the local market would bear.
I guess that would make my peeve people who won't approach food with somewhat an open mind. If you don't like it, fine, but don't insist that your tastebuds are the only ones in the world that count.
