A Reddit user confesses that their taste for oyster sauce has changed after trying a new brand, leaving them unable to find the flavor they now crave. The post details how the familiar Lee Kum Kee Premium Oyster Sauce, often hailed as the best, feels flat and overly sweet for them, while the Hamadaya brand offers a smoky, complex profile that satisfies their palate. Frustrated, the poster is searching for a replacement that matches the new taste they’ve discovered and asks fellow food enthusiasts for recommendations.
I have never liked oyster sauce until I recently tried this stuff. I can't find it anymore and I am losing my mind. Everyone says Lee Kum Kee Premium Oyster Sauce is the best, but for whatever reason it does nothing for me. It's just kind of flat and sweet. Hamadaya brand was a bit smoky and complex.
