Do horror fusion food trends affect culinary culture?

Are horror food fusions ruining food culture?

The art of preparing food and drinks always aims for harmony and nutrition, the combination of ingredients to bring the best taste to the enjoyer. However, by following short-term trends, are people ignoring the fact that creating horrifying products is gradually destroying culinary culture?

According to Mr. Thinh, the nature of sweet milk tea is often mixed with jelly and tapioca pearls to reduce the sweetness.

In the era of technological development, people spend a lot of time working, entertaining, interacting on social networking platforms,... It can be seen that social networks no longer seem to be a virtual world but can be considered our real living space. Therefore, the content spread on social networks needs to be regulated by law and the rules of civilized society.

These things need to be adjusted, should not appear in a civilized and developed society.
