    I do not like cold pizza. I will gag if I bite into it.

    Not sure if that is an unpopular opinion, but have never met anyone who's at least not OK with cold pizza.

    Omg, yes! The idea of cold pizza is disgusting to me. I can't stand cold tomato sauce either. I could never understand why everyone seems to just LOVE day old, cold pizza.

    I only like cold pizza if it's pesto or thai pizza with a crust on the thinner side. YES, I said PIZZA and not FLATBREAD. PIZZAAAA!!!!

    I am okay with cold pizza that still has the crust in good shape so that you can take a normal bite and not have to twist your head to tear it off...

    Nutella is an oversweet insult to both chocolate and hazelnuts.

    While I respect your right to not like Nutella, I disagree and think it's awesome. Also think the people who tried to sue Nutella for marketing it as "healthy" without doing any of their own research/reading the label are silly.

    I hate mayonnaise.
    I don't like sushi
    Bacon doesn't make everything better.

    Agreed to the three above.

    One of my own that a lot of people tell me is gross - melted cheese is great on oatmeal. If other grains can go with cheese, why not oats?

    Once of the best instant oatmeal flavors I've ever had was Quaker apple cheddar rosemary. Unfortunately it was a limited time thing.

    A few more - kale never should have been upgraded from decorating the plate at Shoney's to something we actually eat
    - I don't really like any seafood other than lobster and will tolerate tilapia if it's soaked in lemon juice
    - Coffee is disappointing bc it smells so good but tastes so bad. If I want to drink something hot and sugary I'll drink hot chocolate
    - I've always hated Ranch dressing
    - I don't remember ever liking soda (my mom says I drank it when I was really little)

    I don't care for mega-sweetened hot coffee drinks. It's like a hot milkshake: Why?

    I'm a skim latte lover. Typical me/barista conversation:

    "I'd like a large skim latte, please."
    "What flavor?"
    "Coffee. And skim milk."

    Some places (automated machines) don't even make them that way. WTFlip?

    I get my lattes with nonfat milk, I can’t tell the difference once the milk is steamed and frothed.
    Love my grande nonfat blonde latte :)

    Because milkshakes are awesome!

    Most of the time I want a standard hot non-fat latte or cappuccino. But every once in a while having a mocha is delicious decadence. Especially around Christmas when I can get a salted caramel mocha or peppermint mocha. It's hot chocolate with a hit of espresso.

    I don't even like coffee. No amount of milk, cream, or fancy sugar syrups will change that :tongue:

    If you eat savory oats, why not? I sometimes cook in some feta. (For sweet, I suppose there's the apple and cheddar thing. Edit -- and it appears Quaker already thought of that!)

    I actually like when the crust gets rubbery. And when the cheese gets hard haha.

    Every now & then I'll drink a fancy iced coffee drink since it's more like a dessert, but the one time I got a PSL I felt like a cat lapping at milk. It was disgusting! Hot coffee is not for me. I'd rather drink diet soda for my caffeine.

    Coffee in ice cream is awesome.

    Of course they are. But they're not hot. That's a travesty. ;)

    Seriously? This time of year and you don't know what a PSL is?

    I will put you out of your misery @quiksylver296 . They're pumpkin spice lattes.
  • Peanut butter!
    I am so glad I'm not trying to gain or have problems reaching my cal goal because the first thing recommended is usually PB, and I would be seriously gagging.

    I bet my woo count is going to go up now :'(

    Cheers, h.

    Finally...someone who understands my hatred of peanut butter!!

    I can’t believe people like Scotch. It’s like licking an ash tray.

    Well yea, if you drink the crappy stuff. Good Scotch isn't that bad. Now Malort, that is a whole different story.

    I love cold pizza, cold fried chicken and cold fried rice. If those left overs are in the fridge, it's a good bet that I'll eat a serving for breakfast.

    No matter how it's dressed up, plain Greek yogurt is disgusting. It's way too tart and tastes like bad quality sour cream.

    Good quality sour cream is delicious, and I can eat it by the spoonful.

    Most butter is overrated. I stopped using it for anything unless absolutely necessary to the recipe - until I discovered Kerrygold. That stuff is so yummy that I just want to slather it all over warm bread every day (I don't, of course).

    Lettuce/Greens-based salads are overrated even when chocked full of protein and fat.

    Breakfast cereal is yummy but only as a snack, because it just doesn't have good enough macros to be a meal.

    Milk-based espresso drinks (lattes, cappuccinos, etc.) aren't worth the calories, even if skim/alternative milk is used.

    Ice cream is the best dessert. Ice cream>Cookies>Cake>Pie

    Bread is life... especially freshly baked bread that's crusty on the outside and pillowy soft on the inside.

    Steak should not be eaten with any kind of sauce. (don't think that one will be unpopular though)

    Frank's RedHot is the best hot sauce.

    Diet Dr. Pepper is the best soda. Black Cherry Fresca comes in second.


    Some of those may not be all that unpopular... it's hard to say. Some of the stuff I like and thought was fairly normal has proven to be a bit of an oddity in the past (liking to drink milk while eating potato chips comes to mind).

    Most Thanksgiving food (with the exception of Turkey) tastes better from a can or a box. I hate homemade stuffing. Hate homemade cranberry sauce.

    I love seafood and I sort of share this opinion. It tastes like it has dust on it. I have had it spicy a few times and that helps.

    I wish I liked seafood, but I just don’t.
