Sesame paste aka tahini proves 3/4 of those points objectively wrong!
…I know, I know, “objective” when it comes to tastes is an oxymoron. But seriously, tahini is awesome: flavourful, won’t get stuck in your teeth, and it makes a lot of dishes go from “meh” to “wow”. Still a bit messy, as it’s a paste.
Bonus points if it’s halawa (dunno the English name), a sweet made with tahini and honey. I seriously love that stuff.

I think the English word is pretty much ‘halava’. There’s no equivalent word so we just use that.
