I agree with that. And I think there is too much negative stigma attached to it.


I think you can have a food or drink hobby, or be an enthusiast, or advocate, without being snobby about it. When there is pretentiousness about it, or a sense of superiority because of it, that's when it becomes snobbery, and that should have a negative stigma attached

I'm confused. Your OP said you're as snobby as they come in reference to beer, but you don't seem to be that way about food.

.. So why is it that being that way about food "should" have a negative stigma.

FWIW, I'm not rude to people about what they choose either. Just unclear on your stance.
