I remember being in the US, and the friendly family friends talking about how we would get their favorite pie, sound awesome, Key Lime Pie, and I love lime. I tried it and I almost fell over backyards it was basically pure sugar with a the slightest taste of lime.

I’m American but have a lot of Chinese friends (through my wife). They talk about American desserts with the same disdain that I talk about Chinese desserts. “It’s too sweet” vs “this tastes like a dish sponge”. I love key lime pie. I got a gigantic one at Costco and subjected my wife’s friends to it. Many of them ended up liking it!
