Unpopular food opinions

[HangingOver]

Mine is that I ADORE white pepper, while everyone else seems to think it tastes like the 70s and hospital dinners.

I also prefer some things over cooked, mainly broccoli and pasta.

What's yours?

I am very careful when it comes to UPF - but even I have to cave in when it comes to Lemon Fanta! 🤪

I hate sourdough bread. Oh and brioche burger buns.

Sourdough can do one. I don’t have a sweet tooth but it just tastes so ….. sour! Bread should be a joy!

Cooked fruit is gross.
Fruit and cheese is gross.
Fruit and meat is gross.
Fruit on it's on. Cold. Yum.
Strawberry flavoured anything is gross. Strawberrys are yum!

I bloody LOVE Fanta. I sometimes go to the drive thru just to get a huge one with ice when it's hot.

Yes I agree with this! Cooking (or drying) fruit removes everything that is good about fruit

i also HATE egg

I absolutely love white pepper too OP and use it for cooking and as a condiment.

Apple pie is gross

Ice cream is too sweet and too cold.

Yeah! Even golden syrup can't mask the dodgy texture! TBF to yoghurt I do like it as a snack or pudding sometimes after dinner. If it's creamy, sweet and 'posh'! But not at breakfast 🤣

Eggs are revolting and how anyone could eat something with that smell is beyond me.

I loved school dinners too! (70s/80s).
I felt uncool and greedy because everyone else was complaining and pushing it to the side. I hoovered it up. Yum. I could still scoff down minced beef pie, mash, cabbage and gravy!

Love pineapple on pizza; hate steak unless it's a stew; love strawberry jam and cheddar butties; burnt toast with jam too 😋
Hate sourdough bread and always leave the bun from a burger, brioche or not.

Cannot go near anything containing garlic, mayo or vinegar. 🤮

Can't abide pasta, pizza, mushrooms or - to an "Oldie like me" - any of these new fangled things like humus. Can't stand soft and/or smelly/blue cheeses or anything covered in sauce or dressings on salad. 🤮

The list is way longer but can't think of anything else specific at present. As you can imagine, going out for a meal in the UK for me is little short of a nightmare. 😁

I don't eat steak or roast beef,but eat mince meat,steak steak and brisket
Hate milk parsnips liver avocado

My guilty pleasure is frey bentos chicken and mushroom pie eaten out of the tin! (Cooked first obvs)
And I eat cake mixture, favourite is Christmas cake!

Chicken soup is nauseating, not "comforting".

I love white bread toasted with loads of lurpak then those cheap tinned hotdogs mashed in 😬.

Can’t stand trifle. Gloopy muck.

I like all the components separately though.

me too and hate the hot honey thing. Salted honey though is pretty nice!

Truffles taste like petrol. It's vile, and I don't understand why it gets added to everything.

Mayo is gross. I can just about tolerate it in some circumstances, but mostly...I don't want it.

Smoked paprika is the worst. I don't understand why it gets added to everything. I only use sweet paprika.

Rosemary is really pungent, and mostly change the flavour of dishes for the worse.

Grew up poor so I bloody love food. Any food, all food, too much food.

Didn't like the taste of something, just suck it up buttercup - or go hungry.
My favourite is sticky ribs, eaten with hands, there is something primeval about holding and gnawing on a bone
Not keen on grains... quinoa, couscous, bulgur (?) wheat but I'll eat them if I'm given them.

White pepper IS nice... can't have clapshot without it.

I love Brussel sprouts.

Big Macs are delicious

Me too. They're like little mini cabbages and really good par steamed then pan fried with garlic and pancetta 😋

i like pineapple on pizza

Not keen on sweet potatoes - ok in within a meal but not on their own baked, or fried.

Not a fan of chocolate sponge cake - too rich

Csn live without brocolli and it gives me wind (but it’s healthy so I have a small portion). Everyone else in my family loves it.

Lemongrass - tastes like washing up liquid.

Crramy, mushroomy stroganoff - no (I was once served this at a friend’s house and really struggled to eat it).

In theory I’ll eat most things, but unfortunately my digestive system has other ideas so a lot of the above is theoretical
