We all have distinct methods of consuming particular foods. One must respect and not insult the opinions of others. In this anecdote, a woman thought her boyfriend’s way of eating salmon was strange and mocked him. After reading the entire tale, do you believe she was right or wrong?

So this happened yesterday. I came home from work in the evening and saw something cooking on the stove. I asked my boyfriend and he said he was boiling salmon. I…was taken aback like…completely. I asked him to repeat what he said and he casually said it again. I was like “ewww…who boils salmon?!”. He made a face and didn’t reply.
I told him it wasn’t right and that I never heard of salmon being boiled…like an egg in water. He said it was alright and he likes it cooked that way. I called him dumb for this to which he reacted by snapping and saying “who the f**k says I can’t boil salmon?!” I said “erm…common sense?”. He replied “F common sense…I bet it’s no longer common sense to eat an apple from an apple tree in this time and age”. We had an argument and he started ignoring me saying he felt hurt and disrespected when I called him dumb and is now waiting for an apology.
Am I Wrong ?
