例えばパクチーのような香草。
好きな人は、かなり好きで、嫌いな人は、全然受け入れられない。
中間が無い感じ。
未知のものと遭遇してしまった…という人もいるかも知れない。
そのくらい癖のある香草。
マーマイトとか、カース マルツウとか、食べ物だときりが無いので、調味料やハーブで例えるとわかりやすいかなと思います。
例えば塩のような存在の人もいると思います。
無くてはならない、そんな存在。
唐辛子、のように存在感がありすぎる人なんかもいますね。
もうこんな私なので、今更特に人に好かれようなんて、思いませんが...。
3食、食卓に無くても、大丈夫。
でも、あると嬉しいという人が数人いる。
そんな存在で、いいかなぁ。
消極的でしょうか?
でも、きっと私という存在はそういう役目なのかなと思います。

While I was talking with a friend of mine, I thought myself as a certain herb with unique flavour.
For example, herb like phakchi, a.k.a. coriander.
People who love it, they loooove it so much. And people who hate it, they absolutely can not accept its taste.
There's no "middle".
For some pople, they might think like they met completely unknown thing.
That much unique one.
Using food like Marmite or casu marzu, there are so many unique food to pick up as examples, so it's easier to name spice or herb I think.
There are people who are like salt.
Those ones are people who are essential.
Some people are like chili pepper. Very hard to ignore.
I am who I am, so I don't particularly wish to be loved by everyone now...
I'm just like a spice which is okay not to be on the daily meals table.
But some people love to have it on the table.
I think I'm absolutely fine to be like that.
Would you call it a negative opinion?
However, I think it's a part I'm given in this life.
