| That's what all the condiment bottles and sides are for, OP...chile peppers, fish sauce, sriracha, oyster sauce... |

Not OP but it just doesnt do it for me, nor do I particularly want to have to lather on extra sauces for my food before it tastes good. Vietnam has its charms, but the native food is not one, for me |

| Anything with choux pastry. It was one of the first things I ever learned how to bake, when I was about 12. Shove anything in puff pastry and people act like it’s fancy. It’s butter, flour, eggs and water. Could not be simpler. |

They may not be fancy, but I could eat gougeres 'til I burst. |

| The current obsession with all of these iced coffee drinks, Starbuck's in general, overpriced tacos with absurd ingredients, avocados, expensive cupcakes and cookies |

| Wine. And I’ve been to fancy wine tastings. Beer tastes even worse. |

| Pickles. Get that thing off my plate, it’s contaminating my sandwich. |

See I disagree on donuts. They are super unhealthy and make me feel like garbage an hour after I eat them, but I still do it occasionally because they are the MOST delicious treat. |

Avocados.
They look, feel, smell, and taste like puke. |

Not always. I was at a theatre where they used coconut oil. |

"Foodies" or whatever we are calling them now do. You look like a rube raised on Olive Garden as a special treat if you don't love urchin and caviar. |

| Hard shell crabs. Super expensive, a lot of work for a little crab meat, messy, leaves yoynwith a smelly mess to clean up. Back in the day was fun for all you can eat in a restaurant for a reasonable price. |
