Dubai chocolate bars. $15 for a candy bar that just tastes like sweet? Makes no sense to me.

Me neither there's waaaay better chocolate available

I'm not sure what kind of arctic wonderland you have to live in to keep them from immediately melting into goo, either.

Motherfucking cantaloupe. I'm mildly allergic to all melons, but I only avoid cantaloupe. Stupid orange rectangles that infest every fruit salad. And the name itself sounds like something inquisitors would yell as they dragged you out of you hovel for knowing too much about herbs.

Why do people keep growing those awful, inflamed-testicle-looking pieces of shit? Even taking the people that punch holes in the side and fuck them into account, I can't imagine the demand is that high.

[-] RBWells@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Good cantaloupe you can smell it in the store as you approach the display. If it is fragrant it's ripe, otherwise it's just a rock of tasteless nothing. This is a fruit I love but can imagine not liking, it's a very distinct flavor.

Sick to death of every fruit cup in stores and restaurants being 75% composed of that feet-smelling bitch-melon.

I love canteloupe! The smell, the colour, the texture, the taste... it's all good to me

Only on Lemmy do you get downvoted for liking cantaloupe. What’s up with that KuroiKaze@lemmy.world?

If you could pick it out and it didnt make every other fruit within a 10 mile radius taste like cantaloupe I wouldn't mind it in the fruit salads so much

Caviar. Salty raw fish eggs. I think the rich started this rumour that it was an excellent gourmet item just so they could secretly laugh at the poors when they spent a bunch of their hard earned money on fish eggs, just to appear "Classy".

Hot honey. I keep seeing it on menus. It's just rubbish honey that's had chili added so you can't taste how rubbish it is. Ugh.

[-] ms_lane@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

It's just a different sweet chilli. I like it, but do enjoy chilli.

Truffle.

It's so overpowering and stinky, I don't understand why people want to pile it up on things or distill it to a liquid to turn the flavor of whatever you're eating into gym socks.

Truffle fries? No. Stop. Go away.

Lobster. Without the butter it tastes like almost nothing. With the butter it tastes like butter.

Wime, specifically Pinot Noir. It's disgusting. It tastes like rotten dirt.

Beer. And alcohol in general.

[-] RBWells@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

Woah I love so many of these. Give me your licorice, your onions, your cilantro and oysters, your cooked greens and water chestnuts. Lobster, crab, avocado, yum.

Beets I don't like but can imagine liking. Honeydew melon, ripe is heavenly but the underripe flavorless ones that are usually in fruit salad are absolute nonsense.

The ones I have trouble believing anyone likes are natto and negroni. Natto I guess you have to grow up with and negroni hits me tooth shattering sweet, disgustingly sweet, so sweet and so bitter, but mostly just syrupy hypersweet.

Raw onions. Their taste is overpowering, taking over any other flavors in a dish, just to leave onion-breath at the end. Different kinds of onion don't make a difference, either - I've been suggested red onions and sweet onions, but they all have that "onion-y" sense, so no dice.

Cooked onions rock, but only if they're fully cooked (translucent and soft.) One of the reasons I stopped getting onions in meals at Pei Wei was because they don't seem to understand what "cook the onions thoroughly" means. They think heating them up but keeping them half-raw is enough, but I think doing that ruins the dish.

Then there are burgers and sandwiches, where bits of raw onion get hidden in the middle, only to be discovered after a horrifying crunch with a stinging on my tongue.

I don't really believe people are pretending to like them, though. I've asked around people who like raw onions in their food as to why, and almost universally they say they like "the crunch" it gives. Which leads me to think this is just another sensory difference between us - they don't even mention the taste, whereas the taste is the biggest thing I pick up from it.

The Allium family makes life worth living for me, both cooked and raw. I practically never make a meal that doesn't include some sort or the other allium. Shallots, garlic, spring onions, leeks, chives, in addition to onions, they're all Earth's ultimate culinary gift to humans.

[-] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

As someone who loves raw onions, especially on things like burgers and hot dogs (I'll snack on a ring when I'm cutting onions), I take offence to this.

Steak, just generally not a fan of the flavor and especially the texture of beef. But people are crazy for this stuff.

I'm loving all unpopular opinions here.

Okay, this is probably a hot take, but fish.

I don’t understand how people like it. I get that taste is subjective and all that, but good Lord, I don’t like anything about fish. The smell, the taste, the texture. I don’t get it.
