Food is not all created equal. There’s a reason different food gets a better rep than others, or other foods are seen as gag-worthy. For example, it’s rare you find someone who hates pizza but loves anchovies.
However, there ARE these people who exist—and they just admitted their controversial opinions on certain types of food for the world to see. Here are the surprising answers below!
-
Lobster
100 years ago lobster was considered the cockroach of the sea and only poor ppl ate it. i forget how it come to be synonymous with the rich tho.

Thanksgiving Foods
Thanksgiving dinner food is so overrated. The only food served that’s any good is the mashed potatoes. Which is why we eat them year round.

Oreos
Oreos are overrated. Oreos in ice cream doubly so.

Pizza
If a plain slice or pizza doesn’t taste amazing, it’s not good pizza and no topping will ever make it good pizza.

Mac & Cheese
Macaroni & Cheese is wildly overrated. I don’t care how well your mom/grandmom makes it, it’s baked noodles and cheese. And it’s not that good. Fight me. https://t.co/yBCg0qWAb2

Sweet Potatoes
Sweet potatoes are not good. Not sweet potato fries. Not sweet potato pie. Not sweet potatoe casserole. Not the sweet potato your grandma picked from your family farm with her bare hands. None of it is good. None of it at all. https://t.co/JqOJjslbKj

Oysters
Oysters are neither aphrodisiacs or anything a sane human would want to eat. (They have dozens of eyes, you know.) https://t.co/DuYPCEDYAO
