When cold air touches my skin, my taste pallet changes and I like the taste of sour and salty food, I also like spicy food. Even slightly bitter tasting fruits like cranberries and pickled gherkins taste better to me when it is cold.
I also like to cook my jacket potatoes in the oven instead of microwave, when you cook jacket potatoes in the oven the heat goes through the potatoes from the outside and makes oils and butter you put on them turn crispy and tasty, you don't get that with a microwave because most of the heat appears inside the potato. When it is cold, I don't worry about heat being applied twice as long because it gets used twice, I can cook all my root vegetables in the oven knowing the heat used by the oven would be used twice because it would seep out of the oven and heat up the air in the kitchen and some of that heat would spread around the home.
