To ask you what food/drink trend people are pretending to love?

Mines matcha - looks nasty

Previously sweet potato fries but they've kinda died out now

Did anybody ever like the taste of kale when we were being encouraged to eat kale salads all the time? So rubbery!

I’m not overly fond of kale in salads but I could eat an entire bag roasted.

Was it Leon that used to have a kale and peanut salad? I loved that, and mourned when it vanished to be replaced by the much less nice Superfood Salad.

I meant smashed avocado on toast, nothing against the fruit itself.

And yes, I am aware they have been around a long time 🤣

If you like alcohol-free Aperol, you might love Irn Bru 😁I am always surprised how similar they taste

Italian restaurants where it's £25 minimum for a small plate of pasta that you could have cooked yourself, at home. I had one recently that was spaghetti, oil, bit of garlic, and steamed broccoli. Yes it was my fault for ordering it but come on! I was expecting a bit of a sauce at least...

It really really doesn't taste like alcohol free aperol.

Lidl do a great cheap version.

I don't like jerky, biltong or any dried meat.

I call it Cow Scabs 🤢

Have we mentioned jackfruit yet?
It has crept in to every veggie and vegan dish and is just horrible.
Gave my friend an urgent, severe, abdominal incident. Which was a difficult watch.

I actually love both matcha and sourdough. Key with matcha is to make it strong but also with non dairy milk

But this is a popular Indian drink…are you Indian? Because if not…Maybe it’s just…not meant for you?

Campari spritz for me too,please. Love it!

I don’t understand this comment. Cooked salmon is pink.

£25 😲.

Loaded fries and cheesy chips just salt and vinegar is all that’s needed

Every single person from India loves this then do they?

Any kind of patè - smells like burps! How could anyone enjoy that!

Runny eggs 🤮

Eating Italian outside of the house is never worth it sorry

Best off paying for a dominos tbh (controversial)

I do like matcha. I used to get a tiny tin for about £30. It was very fresh tasting and such a vibrant green. I have also used cooking grade matcha for baking. It is not as green as the tea grade stuff. I swear cooking grade is what cafes use in their coffees, probably because it is cheaper. It tastes horrible. I had a matcha latte in one place and it tasted fishy.

I want to try Dubai chocolate but not at the price it is.

Sweet potato fries are amazing though. And unlike your usual chip, they count as 1 of your 5 a day.

I love bubble tea, but the fruit ones. Tealith have them 2 for 1 Mon to Friday at the moment.

The key it to rub it together to make it wilt a bit (with a bit of oil and salt). It breaks the fibres down and makes it less tough.

Bubble tea and overnight oats, both yuk in equal measure!

Brioche buns.
Years ago, one of my friends had a BBQ, and the only buns she could get were brioche ones. What the fuck are they for?

Now it seems most food places serve their burgers in a brioche bun, and it really puts me off. Even the burger meal kits in Tesco have brioche now. It used to be a good ole fashioned white roll with sesame seeds on.

Coconut water is divine when out of an actual coconut but foul out of a carton. Coconut milk is great even from a carton. There is also fresh coconut toddy - mildly alcoholic - which is lovely but will never be a trend.
I dont care for matcha and bubble tea etc but hate "charcoal" bread and products. Like adding toxic rainbow colours to food, activated charcoal in food is foul and unnecessary.

Oh yes, them too!
