“I Refuse To Believe A Single Soul Wants To Eat It”: 35 People Share Overhyped Foods

Never been a fan. I'm shortbread all the way!

I don't mind it, especially on Christmas cake with marzipan. Trick is not to have it too thick and eat it evenly with the sponge

So gross

Zoidberg: "What is this? Goose liver? Fish Eggs? I ask for rich guy stuff and you give me this garbage?"

LOVE 'EM. But I completely understand why people don't.

Admittedly, I love it.

For me, it just signifies the season. I don't eat or drink everything pumpkin spice but it is definitely a favorite and has been since I was little. Pumpkin bread was the first quick bread recipe I ever learned!

These were my childhood. Every birthday party, class event.....

They’re dry when they’re stale. But taste (and coat the inside of your mouth) like Crisco when fresh. Cookies aren’t all that difficult to make, and are so much better homemade, especially when they’re still warm from the oven, not to mention they make your house smell heavenly while they’re baking.

I hate them and everything with that fake icing taste and to add insult to injury you can also taste the dye. However I know people who would inhale these like they’re loaded with crack. So I guess some people like the taste of food dye and sugar 🤷🏻‍♀️

I actually really like these.

these are good for the nostalgia, and i'll fight the naysayers on it

Not gonna lie I don't mind these this much

They're lofthouse cookies. Store brand ones are usually gross. Homemade ones are fantastic and super easy to make.

Amen!

Don't be dissing you just mad

They're not that bad!

They look raw

I actually LOVE these cookies 😂!

I love those actually lol

I love those things. They taste like birthday cake.

NU UH. They're amazing the best!

I'll admit it, I really like them, in part because the cookie itself isn't very sweet so the frosting doesn't make them overly sweet.

The best. lol

who the heck liked these even???

Terrible flavor

Ah yes flour flavored cookies

I like home made frosted sugar cookies. The grocery store commercialized ones are usually pretty awful.

agreed. Crisco should be taken off the market.

They're great for sugaring up the niblings and sending them home to your awful sister in law.

nah man, they're absolute gold with milk

Kids love them - me not so much

chemical garbage

I seriously love these in the picture, but I don't think that's what they are talking about...

Oh what wretched pucks of disappointment!

why do these look like they have never seen the inside of an oven?

I totally agree. Yes, even when they're fresh. And the European ones (you know, the ones that come in the sewing supply tins?) aren't any better.

Disagree but I can understand why some people don't like them

I love it personally! Especially the ones with chia!

Love them. But they aren’t something you could just eat a bunch like other mushrooms, which I also love. Even if you don’t necessarily like it it’s hard to not agree that the taste is unique, and powerful. I worked for a high end catering company in NYC and we would get cases of them in and I would shave this slices for various dishes. If it’s an acquired taste I certainly acquired it then. Mushrooms varieties other than portobello/cremini/button are not commonly found in restaurants in the US. Chanterelle, morel, woodsear, enoki, lion mane, lobster, porcini, oh so many delicious and unique flavors. But, truffles outshine them all in its unique firm texture, aroma and flavor.

"Nibbles of Wet Meat" sounds like a helluva Metal band name

What? I love bubble tea. Not overrated

Another instance where there are many different kinds, and the taste varies significantly. Also depends what it is paired with as most of us don't just dig into a bowl of caviar like it was cereal.

Spinach tastes much better

For an adult palate, it's way, way too sweet. Luckily there are good alternatives, like Bonne Maman.

It's a chocolate cake with red food coloring. I don't like it, either.

Yeah Idk it is kinda tastless in my opinion

I almost had to throw up when I tried matcha latte. Why people drink this vomit inducing drink is beyond me.

Black licorice: You either love it or hate it. I've never yet met a person who could go either way. Myself, I'm on the 'Love it' side.

It's just a frozen patty of mechanically shredded pork pressed into a riblike shape. The frozen food companies have been making them for fifty years. The only thing missing is the sauce. Just buy some Swansons and use your own BBQ sauce and bread.

Pale Ales are the laziest form of brewing (having worked in the industry) and, to me, each and every one of them tastes like carbonated dishwater.

I refuse to knowingly give bigots my money!

So it's suppose to be not just red cake with the taste of a coloring.

Coriander does taste like soap to me, but then so does rocket. Yuk.

It is my favorite filler type thing. I add it in when making meatloaf/meatballs to lighten the texture. etc

Has to be done right. Try with fried onions on top

Omg!! Thank you!!! I HATE sweet relish. Mom used to make bread and butter pickles and I liked those but never loved them. I'm a dill pickle girl all the way!

No I love mint with anything. Might be controversial to some people. Some say “tastes like toothpaste”

Lobster is not usually worth the cost. But, I lived in San Diego in the late 80s. I would drive down to Puerto Nuevo in Baja California, Mexico (80km across the border). They had steak and lobster with a view of the ocean for less than $8. That was worth it.
