Before I requested my family members to try this cream, I told them to close their eyes. This way they couldn't see the green colour, so the sight couldn't influence their taste. After tasting it, they agreed, that it's tasty. Then they opened their eyes and the question came: but why is it greeeeeeen?! :D
That's the reason I don't like to tell people what they're eating. If they don't know the ingredients, they normally like what I cook.
