Overrated foods (lighthearted)

[LisaJohnsonsFacebookMole]

Share foods you think are overrated or just don't like (or defend your favourites!).

Overrated imo:
salted caramel,
ruby chocolate,
.....apple crumble.

pigs in blankets
scrambled eggs
parmesan and blue cheeses
definitely the salted caramel!
yorkshire puddings

Cake
Chocolate
Wine
Lobster

Macaroni cheese or cauliflower cheese. Hate with a vengeance.

Most seafood
Cream cakes

Krispy Kreme donuts - when the first one opened locally there were queues of traffic and congestion for miles!!

Utter pleb here:

Bananas.
Avocado.
Oysters.
Okra.
Chia seed porridge thing.

I just don't do any kind of slimy. Stop sniggering at the back! My meaning is perfectly clear. I am talking as a source of primary nourishment.

Cucumber, it ruins everything it touches.

Shellfish (all of the buggers). Special knives, napkins, finger bowls. Oh, and watch out for the grit and try not to worry about the potential for food poisoning. All for a tiny bit of rubbery gristle.

Cherry tomatoes, the ratio of skin to flesh is all wrong, there is just too much skin.

Streaky bacon, too fatty.

Yorkshire puddings. Waste of plate real estate.

Bubble tea.

Sirloin steak
sea bass
salmon
cheese
fresh figs

Salted caramel
Pork except bacon
Raw onions
Basil
Pesto
Oysters
Chickens feet
Mashed potato

Try scrambled eggs with crème freche in them

I'm pleased you felt able to let all that out 😂

@MiddleAgedDread Krispy Kreme donuts, definitely - far too sickly! The whole point of proper doughnuts is the slightly tart raspberry jam contrasting with the sweet doughnut.
Bubble tea (I know, it's a drink)
Bananas
Meringues
Blonde chocolate/blondies

I don't have a very sweet tooth!

Sliced tomatoes. Will accept whole cherry tomatoes in salads etc, especially if they are very crisp. But sliced buffalo tomatoes make me heave. They destroy entire sandwiches with their taint.

When I started the thread I didn't see this coming. I don't think I can take it 😧

Jaffa cakes
chocolate oranges and tea.

Mine was going to be ‘Yorkshire puddings on Christmas dinner or indeed any roast except beef’ but I fear I might push you over the edge…

truffle flavour anything
salted caramel

they were fine at first but now I’m sick of them!

Yep, your thread has proved very cathartic!! Thank you😊

Red velvet cake

just tastes of sugar and nothing else

Ha! I'm not the only one that feels like that about yorkshire puddings!!

Panettone. Perhaps I need to try a bigger variety?
Salted Caramel (who wants chunks of salt with their sweet things?)
Bubble Tea - I don't understand what this is actually.
