NTA – Toxic traits and a culinary bully. Cut ties, move on

NTA-Your friend is a condescending, pretentious a**hole.

“NTA. “I have such a refined palate, I honestly don’t know why you all don’t just order what I order anyways”. Yikes. For someone who went to culinary school, she seems to have missed that food and its enjoyment, like other artistic pleasure, is relative and unique to each individual. Her attitude is pretty trashy for someone who thinks she has “good” and highbrow tastes.”

NTA, she can buy a hitachi like the rest of us.
Also, that ‘how you feed him’ remark is weird.
