"Any of those American monstrosities where they pack a ton of chocolates and candies into one big cake or whatever it is."

 

"Foods with gold flakes."

 

"Caviar."

 

"Twizzlers. Fruit flavored window sealant."

 

Izismile Videos

"Kombucha."

 

"Uni. Tastes like low tide, and not in a good way."

 

"I’m gonna go a different direction on this, but I’m gonna say the McRib."

 

"Matcha, not saying is gross and considering the benefits it gives you, even I tried to like it but I find it sooo hard to enjoy."

"IPAs. I am not much of a beer guy in the first place. And all my favorite beers are, I’m told, German style. But try though I might, I cannot fathom the appeal of IPAs. To me they’re akin to sucking on a car air-freshener, or licking the pine-sol off the hardwood floor. Mind you, I’m not shaming those who do like them. More power to you. I just will never understand the appeal."

 

"Shark fin soup. Shark fin is essentially flavorless."

 

"Kale—let’s be honest, it tastes like crunchy sadness, and no amount of “superfood” hype can change that."

 

"All that insanely spicy stuff. I cannot understand why its a bragging point with people. I like medium spicy stuff, but once its actually painful and I taste the spice more than the main ingredients its not even enjoyable."

"Feastables."

 

"Hummus. Tastes ground up chalk mixed with mud."

 

"Cauliflower pizza a few people I know suggested I try it, and it was of the worst creations on planet Earth. Yet the grocery store always keeps it in stock."

 

"Fois gras. It’s disgusting and it’s cruel."

"Greek Yogurt.

This stuff tastes rancid yet they keep pushing it everywhere. Keep it away from me!"

 

"Pumpkin spice anything."

#18 I never liked pumpkin spice, but then it was labeled 'cultural appropriation' or some stupid cr#p. Since then, I've embraced it. dance3

Vicki,
Something is very wrong with store hummus it always is sour. I've made it fresh from chickpeas and it tastes fine.

#15 Cauliflower pizza is delicious (depending on brand) and is meant for those who are diabetic, or celiac, or Keto, or have many other health conditions. It does NOT taste like regular pizza, but almond milk doesn't taste like cows milk. It's all in your expectations.

#9 The worst thing about the IPA fad is that brewpubs have 8 or 10 varieties of the stuff and maybe 1 weak stout or a lame brown ale as well.

Nibby,

Like everything in America 2024, they're made cheaper, smaller and grosser now than what they were before, while the price went up, up. up.

Let's not forget these are the Americanized versions of everything. Hummus, if it tastes like chalk, you are not eating the real one for sure. Greek yogurt normally does not taste like either that but in the US, yes. Blame your tasteless culture, not the real food.

American chocolate tastes like something between ear wax and vomit.

oysters should be on this list because they have the taste and consistency of salty snot.

#9. Yeah. You explained it in the first sentence.
IPAs are for people that actually like beer. Not beer flavored water.
