And I have the same reaction I have to most of these types of things - I wonder what it tastes like, and wish I could try it.

I've never understood why these things trigger such uproar. It's not like it's poison or some sort of bodily secretion or something - it's just a somewhat unusual but entirely edible ingredient. And it could be good. So what's the problem?

I agree. For example, I love cranberry sauce. I make it homemade and put it on everything during Thanksgiving. That includes Mac and cheese. And it's really good! I wouldn't be surprised if raisins could supply a similar sweetness.

I wanted to say “in Austria, they put „Preiselbeerkompott“ on Cordon Bleu and (ChatGPT said it’s called like that:) game like boar and pheasant“

But the European Preiselbeere is just the smaller cousin of the Cranberry, they taste the same.

I figured it’ll help anyone speaking German who reads this, so I typed it out after I got my answers.
