      As a kid one of my favorite memories is just eating a plain bowl of white rice with some salt and pepper.

          Yeah I think like 80% of foods have some combination of salt, pepper, and garlic. I feel like those three things alone are the most valuable flavorings possible, with many things coming in a close second

            Never forget fat as a flavour enhancer too. There is a reason why plain potato makes your gatherer brain go crazy with just some fat (and salt) added

        Rice with butter was what I ate as a kid instead of butter noodles. So unhealthy, so tasty.

      Almost as nice as a plain slice of dry white bread washed down with a refreshing glass of government juice

      Bread, especially naan, is great on its own or as a carrier for more flavorful foods.
