I have gotten into many arguments over this one

    What sort of flavors are we talking? What was it about them that you didn’t enjoy?

    All of the cheesecakes I make are “flavored” in some way, but I go out of my way to use real ingredients, not just “X flavoring.”

      Off the top of my head I can remember trying: chocolate, raspberry, cherry, peanut butter, coffee, salted caramel, coconut, red velvet, and yuzu. Disliked all of them because they all tasted like:
      [how good the base cheesecake is] - [how good a cake of this flavor in not cheesecake form would be]

      So basically the stronger the flavor the worse it’d be, even though I like all those flavors very much (hence having a list that long before figuring out I just don’t like flavored cheesecake)
