OK, share things that "everyone RAVES about" but when you tried it/went there/ate it etc it left you properly underwhelmed and you've almost ashamed to admit it. Don't need to give details or reasons, just name THE THING

Pandora jewellery, looks cheap and nasty, but its pricey and nasty. What's to like?

All the chain restaurants I've ever tried, it's cheap for a reason. I'd rather eat out twice a year with real food.

Lots of designer clothes. Emperor's new clothes.

Although I would say that I would not judge anyone who really loved the things I am underwhelmed by. Wine and going out on boats are probably two of my favourite things in the world, and for some people I am sure Paris or Rome are the bees knees! Vive la difference!

Growing your own fruit and veg. I keep hearing/ reading it tastes far better than shop bought. I dont know what I'm doing wrong, but mine doesn't.
