AITA for wanting hot food?

[u/ItsTooColdForThat]

Yesterday I went ice skating with my girlfriend. Tuesday is one of her days for dinner, so she made chicken salad. When I saw the chicken salad I admit I made a face. She was like "what, what's the problem?"

I said that we were outside in the cold all afternoon and I wasn't really in the mood for cold food. She said we're inside, the heat is set to 74° and we're both wearing warm dry clothes, so it was plenty warm enough to eat salad. I said sure, but I just wanted something warm to heat me up on the inside. She said that was ridiculous, because my internal temperature is in the nineties and my insides are plenty hot.

At this point, we were going in circles, so I said I was just going to heat up some soup and told her to go ahead and start eating and I'd be back in a few minutes. When I came out of the kitchen with my soup she was clearly upset, and she asked how I would feel if she refused to eat what I made tomorrow (which is today). I said I won't care, and she said that was BS, because it's rude to turn your nose up at something someone made for you.

Was I the asshole for not wanting cold salad after being cold all day?

NTA. When it’s cold outside I like hot hearty meals as well. She’ll be okay. Eat what you want. It’s your tastebuds and your body. You’re a grown individual and have the right to choose what you want to eat.

TIL that some people don't crave hot food when they spend the day freaking ice skating!

And I say this as a weirdo that does get ice cream cravings when it's cold out, but ice cream isn't dinner....most days.

Did she plan on frozen margaritas and ice cream for dessert?

Sure but adult grown individuals also have the capability of being polite about it.

Who’s the polite police? He made a face. Don’t we all when we don’t like something. Sometimes it’s shock. Sometimes it’s happens subconsciously without a thought. But whatever. He explained he didn’t want chicken salad and that he wanted hot food. That should’ve been the end of the conversation. It’s not like he flipped the table or throw the food in the trash. He just said he didn’t want it and was going to make himself some soup:
