I (48m) have a 15year old son who loves to cook. In our culture we have this snack that is ground beef with onions, garlic, potatoes, and carrots mixed in it thats covered in a dough you also have to make. Kind of like an empanada but not really. So, my son learned how to make this in like January because he knows i enjoy it. The first time he made it it turned out perfect. Now, there's always something wrong with it. The dough is either not up to my standards, the meat doesnt have enough of the onion/garlic/potatoes/carrots, the ground beef isnt seasoned enough, or the ground beef isnt moist enough. Last time he made this food was last Saturday. I took it to work that Monday to try since i hadnt eaten it, and during my shift my son called to see if i liked it. I told him no, because in this case the ground beef wasnt seasoned enough. This is when i found out he had been making the meat instead of his mom, so I told him to have his mom make it instead. The dough was fine, but I had to throw it away because the beef was bland in my opinion. His grandmother, his mom and sister like it though, but im more picky about these types of things. After he hangs up, my wife calls and says im wrong to be critiquing food that was made for me for free, especially given that he "Cares a lot" about my opinion. AITA? Conflict all around betrween my wife and son and me,
