What are some of your unpopular opinions about food?

Coconut water tastes like liquid dust.
I have an aversion to ice cream. It grosses me out even watching people eat it. Like .. I don't want to see you licking saliva all over your food. It's disgusting.
Agree on coconut water. I tried 3 brands thinking I had made the wrong choice each time. Nope, just hate it all. Sickening. I also hate every kombucha I've tried, even though people keep telling me I should love it since I like fermented & vinegary foods.
I do like ice cream but I'm grossed out watching some people eat it if they lick their cone forever or only eat like 1/4 of each bite and keep putting the same spoonful back into their mouth all slimy & melting. So I hear ya on that. If I'm eating ice cream I scoop up pretty small bites and eat the whole spoonful each time.
Mentioned in other posts...but I don't get the dessert menus with every single item being chocolate on top of chocolate. I do like chocolate. But I just prefer more variety and I find a lot of the stuff that layers chocolates together is low quality and tastes awful.3 -
Coconut water is gross.3

I make my potato salad european style with oil and vinegar dressing. It is much better that way!
Me too! German potato salad, with bacon. Mmmmm.6 -

Reese's peanut butter cups are an overrated candy. Is that even PB in there???
Here ya go (skip the coconut oil, use peanut butter than separates, and use that oil instead.)

Cauliflower takes on the taste of whatever you season it with. I eat mashed cauliflower with actual salted butter, garlic and bacon pieces. And sometimes cheddar cheese. It's a delivery system.
The Cheesecake Factory makes this Korean cauliflower and it’s fricking delicious... it tastes like sweet and sour chicken!
OOO gotta try that. Found the recipe: https://www.thecheesecakefactory.com/about-us/our-recipes/korean-fried-cauliflower/
Buffalo Cauliflower does not taste "just like" buffalo wings, but is very yummy, and my OH, a cauliflower hater, likes it: https://www.franksredhot.com/recipes/Buffalo-Cauliflower-Bites5 -

I'd make that, just omit the flour and water. Cauliflower doesn't need breading!

This is how I feel about frosting. Most frosting. I found a recipe that was food allergy friend for my daughter when she was little for maple meringue that's tolerable.
As for cake? Eh. I have celiac disease and haven't bothered to bake myself a gluten free cake in years, but back when I could eat gluten, I always made home made cakes. Everyone considered me a really good baker and would always ask me my secret. My secret? I cut the sugar in every recipe I cooked and increased ingredients like vanilla and cinnamon. So I was never used to cakes being overly sweet since I deliberately cooked them not to be that way.
One time I made a Cherry pie and left out ALL of the sugar. Everybody loved it and asked for the recipe. It was much fruiter and fresher in taste. Sugar can really be cut at least in half in most baking recipes.

I detest sweet coffee in any form. Coffee is meant to be bitter, like steak is meant to be umami.lynn_glenmont wrote: »Breaded seafood is disgusting.
If we were Facebook friends I would have to block you.
A good thing my unpopular opinions about things other than food include (1) I'm not interested in Facebook and (2) I'm really not all that interested in having online friends, although I do occasionally accept requests on MFP. 8 -

Bread is overrated. I'm shocked at the number of people in some of the GF groups I'm in who eat gluten -- despite being GF on medical orders -- for *bread*.5

S'mores really aren't very good. I don't think that's an unpopular opinion. Marshmallow anything is pretty bad, though oddly enough, I like a marshmallow or two by itself every now and then.13

Another coconut water hater here !3

I only like white marshmallows 🤷🏼♀️ the pink ones are foul!2 -
Although many people hate it, I actually don’t mind orange juice with pulp. I prefer orange juice over apple as well.
“Ethnic food” (any and every kind) is so much better than standardized American food (burgers, fries)
Wendy’s is so much better taste wise than McDonald’s
McFlurrys are overhyped and never made properly
Hawaiian and Greek pizzas are the best toppings.7 -
I don't care for really high end cheesecake; I would rather have the Jello no bake mix that uses sweetened condensed milk with a can of cherry pie filling poured over it.8
-
I hate pizza. I really despise pizza with tomato sauce and pepperoni. Sausage, onions and peppers on the pizza don't help either.3
-
I agree with the comments about cake. Store bought cakes are often overly sweet and dry. The vegetable shortening frosting is inedible.8
