Nothing Like Some Unpopular Opinions.

You probably didn't anticipate coming to learn that there are fellow human beings that walk this space rock that in fact don't like things like Nutella and "messy burgers." Yet, here we are. To each their own, but also, wow. 


This AskReddit thread is just the kind of discussion that is sure to make some waves. Maybe you'll find yourself disgusted over people's disgusts when it comes to food, or maybe you'll find reassurance in knowing that you're not alone in disliking otherwise highly popular foods.

But That's The Best Part.

Okay, so aren't messy burgers just that much tastier though?

Yep, Got To Watch Those Calories.

It seems like White Claw is one of those companies that is committed to churning out a new (potentially horrendous) flavor almost every week. It's kind of a shock that they haven't dipped their toes into the Pumpkin Spice game yet.

Yeah, This Does Kind Of Check Out.

Is it weird that it really does seem like Red Bull is one of those drinks that could genuinely melt certain materials. 

04
Reddit

Oh No They Didn't.

In all fairness, coffee is definitely one of those drinks that can light up a room with the good aromas, but then can also taste quite, quite acidic.

Kind Of Inevitable.

Well, you can't have it all.

Wow, This Was a Twist.

The fact that there's a whole subreddit dedicated toward disliking Fondant certainly suggests that it might not be the tastiest icing out there.

But It's Good For Your Gut.

You can't sleep on that gut health. That being said, there are certain kombuchas that do taste positively awful. 


We tracked down a few kombuchas that are actually pretty decent.

This Might Be Very Accurate.

Yeah, the inconsistency between bags of Takis is something to write home about.

Genius Peeps Hack Though.

Wait, whoever thought of roasting Peeps is tapped in.

Just Picturing It Can Kind Of Turn One's Stomach.

Chicken shouldn't be canned. It's as simple as that.

So Moist Yet So Dry At The Same Time.

Honestly though, how can a cookie accomplish such awe-inspiring levels of moistness while also being dry enough to dry out your mouth. It's dark magic, for sure.

They Took It Too Far.

What a dark and lifeless world this poor person must be living in.
