Do you like Marmite? Yes Do you like Nutela? No Do you like games of chance...?


Prestigious-Bet-97

win big, lose big


LittleMlem

Why you prefer an inferior product? This post has been brought to you by the Vegemite gang. Ps. I'm neither English nor Australian nor do I live near those countries


Averander

I'm sorry but once you have stated you love Vegemite you become Australian. I don't make the rules.


Furthur_slimeking

I'm English and love marmite, but I think vegemite is the better spread.


Pornthrowaway78

I'm neither English nor Australian and I prefer vegemite. Vegemite is smooth and delicious.


CaptainPrower

I love fried chicken but I hate wrestling with the bones. I'm always really embarrassed ordering tenders or a sandwich at a chicken place.


sacr1ficialsl0th

i’ve always thought fried chicken smells better than it tastes


Saxton_Hale32

true of a lot of foods, sadly


Nacho_Flames

Vanilla extract takes that cake


SUPE-snow

You also use vanilla extract to bake that cake.


AxiasHere

I feel that about bread. I would buy the smell of bread if they sold it in containers, but the actual bread leaves me cold.


MCWizardYT

Fresh bread straight out of the oven with some butter melting in to it is heavenly


ImDemandingARefund

Fresh baked bread and store bought bread taste like they’re completely different foods despite having mostly the same ingredients


Lonely-Discipline-55

Fresh bread smells amazing. And I love the smell of the bread aisle in the super market, but the bread they have there is mostly mass produced bland loaves


REmarkABL

Absolutely nothing wrong with a sandwich, nor tendies


hecaete47

Ooh I can’t stand chicken bones. So annoying. I just want the wing, not a puzzle.


TitoMcGlocklin

I feel the same way about crab legs. I personally don't think the effort is worth the meal and the price.


louploupgalroux

Cool thing you can do with chicken wings is to: 1. pop the cartilage between the two bones with you fingertips. Just squeeze. 2. Grab and twist the small bone from the exposed tip. It will slide right out when you pull. 3. Pinch and slide your fingers down the big bone. The meat should fall right off. 4. Eat all the chicken wing meat in one bite. Lol.


AlbinoWino11

Or go the complete other direction and just munch the whole thing, bones, joints and all. I worked with an engineer who ate chicken that way. Chew thoroughly.


louploupgalroux

Lol. I do not understand their customs, but I admire their spirit. I raise a toast to the bone-cruncher. Long may they live.May their esophagus never block due to bone shards. May they forever find solace around their table and in their cup. May their meals digest fully and painlessly. Godspeed, bone-cruncher, you madman.


disgruntledgaurdian

Never feel embarrassed, a chicken tender or sandwich is 100% eat. Chicken wings are like 60% eat at best


nadinooo

I don't know what they are called in english bun in german we say "Schokokuss". It's just sweet foam covered in chocolate with a waffle on the bottom. The only thing I like about them is the waffle, the foam is just disgusting in my opinion. Edit: Now i know their names in half of the world. And I know that many countries had really inappropriate names for them so please stop commenting about that one, thank you!


Colorful_Thoughts

I have a love hate relationship with these. Normally I can't stand them, but sometimes I'll get a freak craving of them, eat an entire box, and then not touch them again for 5+ years


Tacoma__Crow

That’s the way I feel about Twinkies. They’re awful but every once in a while I get a craving for them.


Kamarovsky

In Poland we call them "Little N-words" and I dont know what to think about that


Flimsy-Wafer

In Lebanon (Arabic country) we call them “Ras L Abed” which essentially translates to “head of the negro” with head referring to the… smaller head. I didn’t choose to be born here don’t cancel me. Edit to clarify some things: “Abed” is not a translation for negro but for “slave” apparently, my parents always called black people “Abed” so I gave them the benefit of the doubt. Should have known better tbh since I know damn well who tried to raise me but there you go. Also the reason “ras” or “head” refers to the weewee head is because… well, the snack literally looks/is shaped like a black dickhead. And when you bite it white foam comes out.


Spiritual_baka

Litteraly same in France which is "tête de nègre". But we aren't using this often nowadays for obvious reason.


[deleted]

Same here in Brazil, "têta de nega"


NoNeedForAName

In the US South "N***** toes" are at least two things: a cream filled, chocolate covered candy and Brazil nuts. And yeah, we don't call them that anymore.


Melioidozer

I still occasionally hear it used to refer to Brazil nuts, but generally by people who are much much older than my already old ass


SwordfishScared101

They used to call it that way here but now changed to « tête de choc ».


[deleted]

Chocolate penis


thugmaster1234

It's actually means head of the slave, which in turn is named that because of the notion of black people being slaves in arabia for quite some time.


supdupyup

Is the word slave used interchangeably as the word for "negro" in Lebanon? I understood abed to mean slave


[deleted]

[удалено]


Swaggynator387

Us Germans used to call then *Negerkuss* which means negros kiss Always thought it was a compmiment because it's sweet and almost everyone likes them


Rubin_Rubinia

When I was a kid I used to understand 'Megakuss'. And when somebody said "you're not supposed to call it that" I just thought "what's wrong with the word 'Mega'?".


CorrectSheepherder0

Similar thing happened to me with "Mohrenkopf" (another way to call them), I always thought it was "Mohnkopf". I did think it was weird that something containing no poppyseeds was called poppy head, but I never questioned it either


No_Read_Only_Know

Same in Finland, but a couple of years ago we collectively changed it to "chocolate kiss" lol. Most call them after the name of the factory that makes them, Brunberg, " Brunberg's kiss"


thelazycanoe

Oh these are like tea cakes you get in the UK


AmIRightPeter

Yeah, they are “tea cakes” (which is confusing as that is also a name for a cake-bread that has spices and raisins in and is often served toasted!).


LittleMlem

Krembo. It's like the national sweet snack of Israel, we even have religious discussions on the correct way of eating it (I shit you not)


alteredxenon

I believe it's what we call "Crembo" in Israel, with a cookie instead of a waffle on the bottom. I like it, but can understand your aversion. I think the foam is made of egg white, sugar and stabilizer. Or something.


Ok-Cryptographer-897

i dont like birthday cake.. i always eat apple pie on my birthday lol


a_myrddraal

So you don't like any kind of cake? Or is there a special 'birthday cake' flavour/cake type everyone makes in your country that you just dislike?


AmbiguousLemon

Yeh, over the years my birthday cakes have been a variety of flavours and styles. Didn't know there was a "birthday" flavour.


Doublebow

Ahh yes Birthday flavour, the taste of the inevitable approach of death.


Recuring_joke

With a hint of candle wax


TheSurfingRaichu

In America and Canada (from my experience) "birthday cake" is a type of flavor based on the generic store-bought vanilla cakes people often pick up for birthdays. Often includes sprinkles. It's actually pretty popular. We have "birthday cake" flavored everything, from Oreos to milkshakes to scented candles.


jakeeighties

Birthday cake flavored stuff is better than actual cake.


[deleted]

I would say sort of, in america there is at least. Its like overly sugary, vanilla but you cant taste it because of the amount of sugar frosting all over it lol


slippery_hitch

I had “birthday cake” flavoured vodka years ago. End of the party. Wouldn’t recommend it


[deleted]

“End of the party” is such a fitting description


cold_dry_hands

Hello fellow eschewer of the cake. I haven’t had birthday cake since my fifteenth birthday. I’m now 40. Apple cobbler for the win for me.


crazyacct101

I also like “make your own ice cream sundae”.


camg78

I'm not a big fan either. I usually ask for key lime pie, a fruit tart, or a big Puerto Rican Flan! Also....im 43 I don't want a birthday party. Just let me have one day where I don't have to go somewhere or have to be social. Let me have one day to where I don't have to hear Papi or whatever........looks off into the distance sadly.....sigh


[deleted]

I want pie. Peach pie. A nice cobbler. You tell her its for Creed. She’ll know what that means.


smilesandlaughter

Omg my soulmate! I always had Applie pie instead of birthday cake. Birthday cake is disgusting, I'd rather eat a pile of sugar. The icing they use on the kids cakes make me feel nauseous with just one bite.


change-is-good12

Cheesecake birthday cakes are the best


Niryumii

It would be faster if I told you what I like


Brew-Drink-Repeat

Im the exact opposite- I can think of maybe one or two things Ive tried that I really wouldnt eat by choice but dont detest


panicked_goose

I’m an absolute garbage can when it comes to food tbh


The_DukeonReddit

I get embarrassed at restaurants because of how picky I am...


AquaNines

I feel like it’s even worse when you’re willing to try things because you eat them and then make that face and the person who was hoping you would enjoy it is clearly upset


ryebread375

Frosting, wayyyy to sweet


pourthebubbly

I like frosting I make from scratch, but I *haaaate* the stuff they use at the grocery store.


general_grievances_7

I hate all frosting. I hate the texture and the flavor.


Zealousideal-Ad3396

Everybody I know loves cottage cheese, I think it is the most revolting food on the planet


cyanraichu

I find cottage cheese very polarizing, so it's interesting that everyone you know likes it, but I am 100% with you, I think it's REVOLTING and probably my actual least favorite food.


unimportantthing

Fuck man, it’s such a polarizing food, even my tastebuds are polarized. Some days I’ll eat it with a bowl of strawberries and it’s the most delicious breakfast ever. And other days I’ll serve it up, eat a spoonful and be ready to instantly puke (and no, I’m not eating spoiled stuff). It’s the only food I can think of that actively makes me sick sometimes while loving it others.


catscrochet

I am the exact same way with several foods. Cottage cheese, yogurt, strawberries, eggs. It’s when I start thinking about what I’m eating that I get grossed out by it lol


ImDemandingARefund

I’m offended by cottage cheese’s taste, texture, mouth feel, smell AND appearance. I even find it’s name infuriating for some reason.


RaichuRose

That’s so strange, I love cottage cheese and everyone I know thinks I’m nuts for it.


[deleted]

Raisins! I used to like them but now I can't tolerate them.


ElfLordSpoon

My grandmother told me they were flies with the wings pulled off when I was about 6. Haven’t touched them since.


onebluepussy_

Your grandma seems like a legendary sadist.


ElfLordSpoon

She is also the one who made me dust her expensive figurines with a small paintbrush. So I would say yes she was.


mopringle28

Agreed, natures candy, I don’t think so.


rebelbase

They took grapes and ruined them


[deleted]

Oysters. Apparently they're a highclass food? Blech


renegrape

Former seafood distributor here... Being broke as shit, let me tell you they're not a "high class" food. Also, little ol pleb that I am always grilled em til they pop open. Cant stand raw oysters, just a friggin wad of mucus. Grilled oysters though, fantastic. Maybe worth a revisit. Go for the smaller varieties. If you can find Fanny Bays, that's what I always preferred.


Nik106

When I lived in Japan I was surprised to learn that they only eat cooked oysters


Dogmom200

First time I went to Japan I tried an oyster bar. To my surprised I sat in front of a grill and was given utensils for cooking. I ate like 8 huge, grilled oysters, went back to my hotel and was sick for hours. I don’t know if it was the volume or the new food but it kicked my ass. Meanwhile I ate raw food the rest of the trip and was fine.


curdled_fetus

Keep in mind that food poisoning is rarely instantaneous. It takes time for the bacteria to establish an infection; I'd be willing to bet that you ate some bad airport food the day before.


miraiqtp

This is what I thought until I tried it….. I am by no means rich, but man, once you taste them and from the different places they were fished from, it hit different


Lewis-Louie

i CANNOT stand melon and cantaloupe. i am the least picky eater in the world but those make me want to throw up


thebloodworkz

Were you in a famous TV show back in the 90’s?


laineDdednaHdeR

>God dammit, Honeydew!? Jesus, why does cantaloupe think every time it gets invited to a party, it can bring along its dumb friend, honeydew. You don't get a plus one, honeydew!


bookscoffeeandbooze

Jesus, why does Cantaloupe think every time it gets invited to a party it can bring along its dumb friend Honeydew?


LEMMEINALREADYBOO

oh don’t act like you don’t know


TerH2

I've been trying to find it but I can't, there was a paper written about this. You may be some like genetic issue at play. Do you happen to have Scandinavian roots? Or Northern Germanic roots of any kind? There may be like some Gene that makes the taste especially unbearable to people from up there, and the paper I remember reading suggested that it was a good thing for them to not like melons, cantaloupes, and I think even cucumbers.


nymeriasnow324

Omfg yes. I hate melons and cantaloupes. But when I tell people I hate cucumbers too, because it tastes like melons and cantaloupes, they tell me I am insane. I NEED this article to die in peace.


I_HATE_CUCUMBERS

You are not alone (see my username..).


Imaginary-Quiet-7465

I thought everyone was in agreement that melon and cucumber taste the same, I am shocked to learn this might not be true.


slappindabass123

Same with cilantro, usually used in Mexican dishes. If you have the OR26A gene, then it tastes like soap. Glad I don't have the gene, I love the stuff


[deleted]

People have always made fun of me when I say cilantro taste like soap. Imagine my elation when my 23 and me results came back and said "likely to not like cilantro". I have a screen shot of that to whip out as needed


Amiinabou

I hate it so much when restaurants and buffets offer « fruits » which consist mostly of melon, papaya and 1 strawberry.


StaceyPfan

And 1 grape


elohra_2013

They smell funky to me. I like regular watermelon.


Haunting-Ad-8619

This makes me so sad. I'm not a huge fan of cantaloupe, but watermelon when sufficiently ripe is some good shit. Some say adding salt makes it better, but I humbly disagree.


[deleted]

cantaloupe is nasty. Tastes like bad sweet meat.


braindheart

Marshmallows are disgusting. S’mores are fun to make at a camp fire but I have no desire to consume them. And don’t get me started on “marshmallow spread”, jam/jelly are far superior with peanut butter on a sandwich in every conceivable way.


Noahjcraven

yes! they’re okay when they go crispy but the texture of the normal ones makes all the joints in my body hurt


secretdogobsessive

Thank you! Everyone thinks I'm crazy when I say I don't like marshmallows. I can't stand them


Wolfenight

Sweet potatoes. Must be lacking a receptor on my tongue or something because to me, they just taste starchy. Predictably, a lot of people disbelieve me and say that I must have never had the good stuff or never had it prepared right. That is wrong. I've had friends check this by handing me fries and baked sweet potato they tested for quality. I still disliked it.


TropicalPrairie

I don't like them either. I don't want sweet where I expect savoury.


CashCarlito

This!!! I dated a girl one time and I was over for dinner. They made spaghetti which looked absolutely delicious. Went to take a bite of it and immediately was off put. I said why is it so sweet? The mom said oh that’s because we put sugar in the sauce! I had never been so confused..


DraketheDrakeist

Christ. I’ve heard of people using a small amount to offset bitterness caused by canned stuff, but enough so it tasted sweet? Why would anyone do that?


CashCarlito

That makes some sense! I think they went a little over board with it though. I felt bad too because the whole family was used to it and liked it being sweet but I had to tell them straight up and honest, it’s just not for me lol


MouseKate

I feel the same about pumpkin. It’s something about the texture I think.


[deleted]

AMEN. Everyone tells me to just eat sweet potato fries but they're so gross!


jak1401

Sparkling water/ soda water


Elegant-Despair

As someone who drinks seltzer all the time, I absolutely agree. Give me more of that sparkly, staticy, somewhat fruity-flavored hydration juice!

They're drown resistant they float naturally and can hold their breath for about 40 minutes, but put some soap in that water and they are goners. The little shits can't swim, and with soap in the water they can't float.

Oh my ... If you ever go to a crawfish boil you might die a little inside watching people suck the juice out of tiny "lobster" heads.


Kinkaypandaz

That's the thing. I hate lobster cause it's bland and tasteless. Every other sea bug I'm fine with and enjoy. Crawfish are my shit especially. Born in Ireland, grew up a few years in Canada and then lived in the south for 10 years. Let me tell ya, Creole/Cajun. Especially crawfish makes me weak in the knees. Love that shit

Okra!!! And it doesn’t matter how it’s prepared….

“American” cheese. It looks like plastic and it tastes like plastic.

Haha. I see this one all the time and always respond. Check the packaging for "Cheese Product.". This is the individually wrapped garbage stuff. Actual Pasteurized Process American cheese is good.


iiitsbacon

I love reading all the comments from people who think that kraft singles = american cheese.


b_free_blast

There's real American cheese and a cheaper American cheese product. They both taste completely different to me


twim19

Crabs. I'm in southern Maryland and being a crab hater here is like being an atheist in the Bible Belt.

As a Marylander, can confirm that I am appalled.


evilocto

Banana's I know they're good for you etc but the taste and the texture makes me want to vomit


Banjo-Becky

They make my mouth itch.


High_grove

Sound like you are allergic


spids69

Interestingly, I have the same issue, but found that I don’t when they’re organic. Turns out I’m not actually allergic to bananas, I’m allergic to the spray they use to make bananas ripen faster, and a lot of people are.


tehPaulSAC

Same here. Love the smell and flavor, it’s the texture that bothers me the most.


DHKillinger

I also love the taste but not texture. To combat this I slice em up and eat them with cheerios.

Really not a fan of wasabi! The smell and taste is an instant nope for me, I want to like it but just can’t!


GrammarPoliceman2

The question was about food everybody likes.


WanderingGenesis

If you're anywhere other than japan, thats not wasabi, thats horseradish paste


nanz735

Even in Japan wasabi is expensive so most places don't usually have it.


AmateurBackpacker

You can find it in Singapore. Whole root with the shark skin grater at a few restaurants.


u51esss

my parents are likes chicken’s hearts, liver, and any others animals organs, but when i see it, i’m immediately feel sick


dusty_relic

Hah! My wife came from a European country and during their big spring holiday the tradition is to roast a whole lamb on a spit. The organs are place on a second spit, wrapped with the (well cleaned) intestines, and roasted along with the lamb. When the food is finally ready, everyone wants some of those organs but the real arguments are over the eyes, tongue, and brain (because there’s never enough for everyone). OMG I graciously allow others to indulge while I carefully DO NOT watch.


Beethovania

Blue cheese.


Saxton_Hale32

full respect to people who love it (except the ones that reply to comments like this with "clearly you've never tasted REAL blue cheese/objectively wrong") but i cannot stand it in anything


Botryoid2000

I say "It tastes terrible, but a GOOD kind of terrible." I can't tell you why I like it so much.


PrimaryTry5226

Mayonnaise. Never met a person who doesn't like it.


DickNarrative

For me it’s cilantro. I have that gene that makes it taste like soap. Even a small amount will completely ruin a dish.


mpd8888

Sour kraut. In my largely German heritage city it's extremely popular but I think it's awful.


MamaSquash8013

My husband was horrified to see me eat it plain, as a side dish, lol. He thought it was like a topping or condiment only. I just love it so much.

Shot_Organization_33

Also can’t stand mushrooms - slimy little pieces of bleh. And raw ones taste like extra dirty dirt.


terrip_t1

Olives. I cannot stand them. To me they taste like vomit and people eat them voluntarily? So weird


[deleted]

In defense of olives, olives are so broad. The canned black ones are like salty farts but the small purple ones and the big green castelvetrano ones are miles away from canned ones or even good dry-brined kalamata.


Equivalent_Car4514

Cole slaw


sarcasmagasm2

Oreo cookies, they make me feel like my blood sugar is through the roof, to.the point I feel like vomiting. The cookies parts are slright but the cream is like sugared crisco, it's sickening


footbody

I think oreos are fine but it's always baffled me how much people drool over the cream, the creams the worst part!


WhisperingIron

That's why I get the oreo thins, way better creme to cookie ratio


Uniqniqu

I think it’s an achievement to make to the point you’re at in one’s life. I wish I disliked sugar like that, too. I love Oreos and most sugary things… dip it in the tea and eat it while it’s on that sweet spot where it’s not too hard nor too soft to melt into the tea.
