    hummus can co to H-E-DOUBLE HOCKEY STICKS

    Have you HAD homemade hummus though? From a mom or grandma's recipe? Just hand it allllll over, thanks.

    My unpopular opinion: pickled turnips are amazeballs.

    Yes to the pickled turnips, too. Yum.

    It seems that disliking frosting (in any form what so ever) on my cakes is a rather unpopular opinion.

    I say it ruins the taste of a perfectly baked cake by making it taste just sweet instead of the nuances of aromas baked into the cake.

    Half-dried and pickled Daikon radishes are also so good! My host mother in Japan had those for breakfast every morning. Sadly can't seem to find them around here :disappointed:

    we are opposites. HOWEVER, this is all subject to the type of cake we're talking about.

    I don't understand the appeal of fried chicken... Chicken nuggets are good, but whole fried chicken thighs/breasts/etc. Why? I much prefer a peice of tender, juicy, chicken. Grilled or rotisserie style.

    Now there's something we can agree on :smiley:



    PS: I usually only eat home made cakes. Preferably my own as they're tailored to my tastes. No frosting needed :tongue:

    Okay. I can agree with that... I prefer a chocolate ganache topping over frosting myself. Just nothing worse than a dry cake! Moist... yum

    Dry cakes are just sadness. No amount of frosting or tea will save a dry cake and no calories should be wasted on it!

    I am a frosting person BUT oh man, this week I baked a sour cream Bundt cake, no filling or frosting or anything...it was so delicious, it may have changed my mind on cake. My husband's been around excellent bakers his whole life and swears it is the best cake he's ever had.

    Agreed. I don't think I've had a pickled turnip, but expect I would like them too.

    Absolutely agree with you 100%! I think wings are way too much work for a tiny bit of meat but I can't stand eating a piece of fat so there's not much left.

    Idk if this is unpopular, but sweetened and flavored coffee gives me a headache. I would rather have sweetened tea.

    I don’t like Thin Mints (Girl Scout cookies). Somewhere along the way they changed the recipe or something and now they’re not worth wasting calories on. Samoas on the other hand...

    I LOVE chocolate and mint, but prefer creme de menthe-type... like Andes mints. Also like york peppermint patties! I don't care for whole thin mints but love them crushed on mint chocolate ice cream!
