Pepsi tastes like regret
Cheese and ice cream are a little overrated (not Brie tho)
nuts as a snack option are seriously overrated and a bad idea (for me at least lol)
Pepsi > Coke
Nuts are a bad idea for me because IBS. I miss them.
Those are "fight-in werdz" down South...esp. ATL, where there is no such thing as Pepsi...all soda/pop/soft drink is simply referred to as "Coke" regardless of whether said soda/pop/soft drink is cola-based or not (orange pop/fanta/etc. = orange coke...in Atlanta at least)
I lived in Atlanta from the early 60s to the early 80s and Coke was generic but I never heard anyone on say "orange Coke". It was more like "You want a Coke?" - "Yes, please, a Fanta Orange". I have heard soda used that way, but that's even what it says on the can/bottle (orange soda).2 -

I feel like I’m not alone on this but I personally think that dark chocolate taste 10x better than milk chocolate.
Hummus isn’t that great.
Protein powders are gross
Plain chocolate like a chocolate bar, maybe with almonds, I strongly prefer dark chocolate. The white Kit Kat is my favorite, though. Peanuts or raisins? It has to be milk chocolate.
Yeah, hummus is just okay and I don't think the comment about protein powders is at all unusual. When you read posts asking for recommendations, it's usually about which is the most palatable in shakes. Having said that, the Pure Protein salted caramel bars with 20g of whey are amazingly good, IMO.0 -
"S'mores" is a misnomer. I don't want any, much less some more.
Homemade marshmallows are nothing but huge clouds of sugar cut into cubes.
Hot cocoa is hot chocolate for losers.
"Milk" is milk from cows, sheep, and goats. Products made from soy, almond, and oats are liquid you put in your coffee. If you need to use them for health reasons, fine, just don't call them "milk."2 -
We lived near Atlanta in the late 80’s early 90’s. I remember soda was referred to as coke. Also a shopping cart was a buggy.CarvedTones wrote: »Keto_Vampire wrote: »GottaBurnEmAll wrote: »aspartame is not the devil and coke zero rocks my world

That’s where I got my love for cheese grits. And pouring peanuts in my Pepsi:)2

Breakfast foods suck and are not worth the calories. I could go the rest of my life without ever eating another pancake, waffle, omelette, French toast, etc. I tell people this and they react like I just kicked a puppy.
Oh yeah, and rocky road anything can go to hell.6 -

Yes! Peanuts in chocolate has to be milk chocolate. I hate raisins with chocolate though.0 -

So I DO like omelettes and my own French toast, I generally love breakfast, but I'm totally with you on pancakes & waffles. Meh to the extreme, not exciting to me and certainly nothing special about the ones from restaurants, either.
A lot of bready things do nothing for me. Croissants, pita, naan, cinnamon rolls, garlic bread, dinner rolls, challah...all of it bores me! I could live without it.
I do like donuts, and eat sandwiches on any boring wheat bread/toast. But I fail to understand the excitement about most bread. That includes from-scratch homemade bread that my husband loves for me to make. It's not that good to me and doesn't even smell that great. I guess I'm just not a bread lover.

Go to a Starbucks, or many other coffee chains -- it's a seasonal thing.
Here's an informational piece: https://slate.com/culture/2015/08/pumpkin-spice-latte-will-have-real-pumpkin-in-it-starbucks-announces-that-s-a-terrible-idea.html
Thanks for the info. We don’t have Starbucks here - we did for a few years but they went bust. Probably because of disgusting things like PSL haha (I’m in Australia)1 -
I hate soy sauce. I won't eat anything that has it in it.0

I love Pepsi Max, but we went to ATL for vacation a few years ago & the World of Coke was really cool. Getting to try all the varieties of coke sold all over the world was really interesting.3 -
Does anyone else think Mountain Dew looks like radiator fluid?10

Hummus isn’t that great.
Protein powders are gross
I like a couple protein powders (Garden of Life Sport chocolate being my favourite in terms of taste and texture), but I've noticed that I can't have them more than a couple times a week on average or I'll start gagging when drinking them.0 -
I only like cereal dry.
Not a big fan of cereal in general, though. Haven't had any months.2 -
Lobster is over rated.9

World of Coke/Museum is an awesome experience...always recommend going to if new to ATL0 -
Agree on the protein powders and the chocolate sentiment. Dark chocolate rulesI feel like I’m not alone on this but I personally think that dark chocolate taste 10x better than milk chocolate.
Hummus isn’t that great.
Protein powders are gross
also
Starbucks coffee is about as tasty as polluted river water
All soda drinks suck, the are too sweet, and make me bloat
With most salad dressings you can't taste te salad anymore, just the dressing.

I used to think, back when I could still have nuts (sob... sorry, still dealing with this! LOL at myself), the same thing.
Then I had these
It might be that there's a variety of nuts. It might be the touch of salt. It might be the high proportion of nuts. I don't know what it is, but those things are freaking delicious.0 -

The only way I eat cereal is with yogurt, never milk.2

I need to try this.
The only cereals I actually like are honey nut Cheerios and honey/banana nut shreddies though.
Not a fan of the super sugary tasting ones.0 -
I haven't read ALL of these so sorry if a repeat but... in my opinion sweet potatoes are definitely not a replacement for potatoes - either as chips, mash, wedges or baked. They are sweet and wet (a good jacket spud should be dry and fluffy) and dont belong on a plate with savoury foods. As for the prospect of sweet potato mash on shepherd's pie, cottage pie or fish pie - just no! As a snack, baked potato with cream cheese is just about passable - but it does make me think I'm having a dessert.3

I like uncooked rolled oats in milk. 80g every morning with the other breakfast items.5

I hate all cold cereal (I like oatmeal).
When I was a kid I'd occasionally have to eat it (slumber parties and such) and would manage, but I would not eat it voluntarily at home, and since then I've never had it. I can't understand why it's so popular, I think it's completely unappealing, dry or with milk.3 -
Cooked fruit (except for berries) is disgusting.
Fruit in salad or in things like chicken/tuna salad is gross.
I hate bacon wrapped food. I love bacon, but I don't want everything else to taste like it.
Coconut is gross and has a weird texture. The smell of it makes me gag and it ticks me off that every moisturizing shampoo smells like it!
Cauliflower mash will NEVER taste like normal mashed potatoes!
Spaghetti squash is terrible.
