…Other than salt and pepper
For me it’s cumin. It’s one of the few spices I buy in bulk and actually use up my supply.
In the winter it may lean towards cardamom thanks to copious amounts of chia.

I’ve heard this a lot actually. Maybe it’s like the cilantro thing. Some people taste it differently.
It’s a huge difference for me. Night and day. Garlic and…sour memories of garlic.
Interesting. You might be right. The whole “does x taste the same to me as it does to you” question is fascinating, and I hadn’t thought about it here. For me, jarred garlic lacks a bit of the bite and spice of fresh garlic, and tends to be weaker after cooking, but I don’t associate it with any sour flavor. Basically, it’s “rounded-off” garlic to me.
Now I’m curious how you experience powdered garlic. That tastes even less strong to me than jarred, and maybe slightly processed, but I wonder if that has a stronger effect on your palate.
