Do you like certain foods with a little more of a burned flavor to them? I like my hot dogs to have a little burned flavor to them especially when cooking out.

Burned food is a carcinogen. If you can avoid it, even though you love the taste especially grilled food, try and do so. I used to love porkcops with the skin and fat a little crisp and burned from the barbecue pit. But after my mother has been diagnosed with cancer, I avoided these kind of foods.

You are right on the burned food is a carcinogen. I used to love a good burned hot dog or sausage from the grill. But now I find that eating those same products without the additives, they wont even char up like the others do.

I like foods brown and crisp but not burnt. I really hate the taste that burned food puts in your mouth. The only thing I ever liked was some blackened fish once and it was really good. I usualy avoid anything that is burned, even slightly.

Oh yes, I like my hot dogs and bacon with a burnt flavor - English muffins too.

I don't eat much meat, but I do like hot dogs and chicken and stuff on the grill with a tiny bit of char on them. Burned cheese is awesome on grilled cheese sandwiches. And every once in a while I like to have a little burnt toast, too.

Yup, I like the taste of burnt food (not too burnt though) - especially on barbecued chicken wings, bacon strips and roast beef!

I think most things you cook out on the grill over charcoal have that slight burnt taste to them. I personally love food cooked over charcoal. I think it tastes and even smells great.

Burned hot dogs are the BEST!! I also like my burgers a bit charred, it's just so good! Anything made on the grill is best when it's a little charred.

I honestly hate the burnt taste. I don't eat meat though, so I'm not sure if meat tastes better or worse burnt. All I know is that I'm constantly burning things - soup, popcorn, coffee, and it's ALL gross and inedible. Talk about wasting food! :/
