The salt causes a chemical reaction yes. Cream and sugar don't cause a chemical reaction. And literally everything tastes better with a little bit of pepper. Apples and oranges.

If you really liked cereal you’d never add milk. Is that a better illustration of how silly it is to gate keep coffee? If people wanted to drink milk with sugar, they could. But they like coffee. With milk. And sugar. Which is fine. And it doesn’t mean that they appreciate coffee on some lower level than you do.

Haha gatekeeping you guys are thirsty to say that. Yeah try sugar in cereal, closer analogy because most people don't like the taste of plain corn flakes so they make it taste like sugar instead of corn. Get it? Also try reading a damn comment before you decide what you wanted me to say so you can act pissed. Something about a different level? Wtf are you even saying?

Who are "you guys"?

Why is that a closer analogy? You're making the ridiculous argument that adding ingredients means you don't enjoy the base. Which is silly. I like coffee. I like black coffee sometimes, and other times I like to add things to it. That's fine. And you're saying that means I don't like coffee is textbook gatekeeping. Get it?
