People who really love food are called foodies. As a foodie, we like to try new things and explore the trendiest restaurants in town. Generally, foodies also love cooking and/or baking and put a lot of time and effort into making our meals fantastic. Using in-season fruits and vegetables, utilizing a new cooking technique or just making something with complex flavors are ways to make a meal better than just average. Being a gourmand has it's downsides, though. There are some things that are just a struggle.
