Pretty much all frozen vegetables are also gross. The only exception I can think of is edamame.

Microwaving vegetables is gross. Steaming vegetables is mostly gross (with a very few exceptions, such as edamame and Chinese peapods). Vegetables should be sauteed in butter or oil.

In general, people should never go more than three days without visiting the grocery store. Much better to buy as you use. Use the small basket, not the big carts. Eating fresh is best.

Butter and ice cream from the Midwest (Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin) taste shockingly better than they do on the East Coast. Store brands of these items in the Midwest knock "national" brands out of the park.

American cheese (e.g. Kraft singles) is revolting.


Aww this is adorable. Are you the person starting all the threads asking if certain things are low class?

Mahout your mouth. Mango and sticky rice is one of the best desserts ever.


Do they mean Asian minus Indian? I love Indian sweets.


Asia is a huge continent, that pp is really kind of ignorant. Good baklava is divine, and there are a lot of other really good middle eastern desserts as well.



I'm married to an Arab so baklava is a must at our house but most of it is cloyingly sweet. It's not an opinion, it's a fact.

Peanut butter blossoms are the worst holiday cookies Got crucified for this opinion on the other post.. lol

But I firmly stand by it. Sure kids may enjoy making them, but they are flavorless and I assume those who make them are terrible bakers with poor taste.

I won't eat tomatoes or peaches out of season. Some produce is OK to eat throughout the year, but these two are simply tasteless out of season.

Most people disdaining certain ingredients simply don't know how to cook.

Anything tastes better fried.

White sliced bread from American grocery stores is just vile. How you people oversugar everything!

There is no such thing as a "born chef" or even talented chef. Anyone can be a fantastic cook but you have to want it.

Chicken breasts should be outlawed.

You poor poor darling you. You must think grocery stores pick their produce off a tree in their backyard and that's where the cattle is slaughtered too. It's almost as if you're unaware of a massive, global food supply chain that plucks strawberries thousands of miles away, delivers them to your local Giant through multiple middlemen, and there you are checking them out thinking "fresh!"

NJ resident here. Jersey food is awesome! My friend would always take a huge bag of bagels back to college in WV with her. DC bagels and pizza are blah to put it mildly.


Agree—I live in NoVa and can find good bagels here, but they still aren’t as good as the bagels from my hometown in South Jersey. And lots of luck finding a pork roll, egg, and cheese around here (though I have found it in Harrisonburg of all places). As for the pizza, there are more good places in my hometown of 10,000 than all of NoVa. And don’t even get me started on cheesesteaks.


I’ve often found Taylor ham / pork roll at Giant — if you want to make your own.

What would you put on a burger?
Note: I use mayo or a mixture of mayo and mustard or mayo and A-1 sauce. Many people think this is gross and judge me. What’s left?

haha me too! I do not do potlucks--I eat what I made because I trust my standard of food preparation and cleanliness and I pretend to eat everything else, unless store bought. lol. Why do people like potlucks?? They're disgusting.


Imagine thinking the pre-cut deli tray from Costco is in any way cleaner or safer to eat than a friend or family member’s home cooked food. It is probably 100x more likely to give you a food born illness.


Indeed. Machines making/cutting food in places where tons of food are processed = pest and bacteria palooza. Rats actually advertise raves at such processing facilities. Furthermore, uptight people like that are just painful to be around. So neurotic. So unjustified. So awful.


Some of us know the people making potluck food. These are the same people that leave their food in the office refrigerator until it turns into a science experiment, and don't wash their hands after going to the bathroom. No thank you.


It's a good thing you don't know the people who work in restaurants and grocery stores, I guess.

He may have designed the food but he hasn’t been making it for quite some time. Who knows if those making it are making it properly.

Disagree on mayo--it's used in many classic French dishes.
