I'm right there with you on the Pepsi Max. No other diet pop even comes close (although I do like Diet Dr. Pepper). Here's mine. Pumpkin anything tastes like *kitten*, coffee, wine & beer are disgusting. I love Fireball.
For those of you who don't like kit-kats or reeses cups, have you tried the dark chocolate versions? That's the best versions of those candies.
I definitely prefer Pepsi Max over Diet Pepsi.
Diet Mountain Dew I find sweeter than regular Mountain Dew.
Dark Kit Kats are 100% the best to me, too...and I've had all of the crazy flavored Japanese Kit Kats (beni imo, taro, strawberry, matcha) as well as some of the UK ones from the past (mint, orange). I liked every single type better than regular standard milk chocolate Kit Kats...but dark is the best, period!
I am going to try Pepsi Max ASAP. Until this thread, I never knew it was a "diet" drink, oddly enough, and I love Diet Pepsi...so I must try this magic.2 -
I don't like any soft drinks at all.0

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)3 -

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?workinonit1956 wrote: »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
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.
Seriously? This time of year and you don't know what a PSL is?
I don’t know either...
Edit: read on and found out what it stands for. But still don’t know what it is!1 -
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

Does anyone know what is the reason kit kat doesn't have the cool flavored things in the US? Why are there so many cool flavors in china for name brand products and not in the US? Have they ever said why this is the case? I've heard people say they don't think it would be popular in the US, but why not? And why are they more popular in china and other countries? I certainly would love to buy a lot of the products. Just a random thought I was wondering if anyone knows the answer or has any explanation. (Sorry for the off topic post, lol)1 -
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

So if you want a Mountain Dew you have to say, "can I have a Mountain Dew Coke?"1 -

Could it be an infringement with Hershey's? That may be one of the biggest things I can think of.

Just looked it up & that's why. Nestle owns the other Kit Kat.3 -
I like burnt kale and burnt brussels sprouts. Can't stand 'em otherwise.2

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.
