There are certain
foods that almost everyone loves. For example, pizza and tacos are usually safe bets for dinner with your friends.
Other foods, though, are likely to
divide the table. To help you know what to avoid, we compiled a list of the top foods that everyone either really loves or really, REALLY hates!
1
Dear Spam, Why are you so good? How can you be so nauseating while at the same time being so satisfying? I could eat you by the brick. Please stay away from me. I'm not even Hawaiian!
2
I can see why a lot of people wouldn't like it boiled and soggy, but crispy baked broccoli with salt and pepper is very tasty
4
Vegemite. It's almost like soy sauce in paste form. Use it sparingly as you would with soy sauce, and it really brings out that umami flavor.
6
Kimchi. It’s spicy sauerkraut. What's not to love?
7
Mint chocolate chip ice cream. People say it tastes like toothpaste, I f*cking love it
10
Fruitcake. I am one of those people that love it. I am not known for having a discerning palate, though. I know some who act like it is awful, and I think it is sweet, tasty, and good. Really good warmed up with heavy cream poured on it and whipped cream as well.
11
Brussel sprouts. Because of genetic mutations, approximately half the population finds them unpalatable.I'm one of them, never ate a Brussel sprout I didn't want to spit out.
12
I love black licorice, but I'd wager there's a vast majority who hate it, and we're strongly in the minority.
13
Canned sardines/ mackerel (usually with tomato sauce). Very traditional and loved in some countries, pretty sure it is despised in others.
14
Oysters. My family is split 50/50 in loving them and absolutely despising them
15
Candy corn, without a doubt.
16
Mushrooms. I love and hate them. Cooked? Excellent addition to stir-fry, quiche, pizza, even good as a main dish. Raw or cooked badly? They taste like fluffy potting soil. And some folks can’t stand them in any form.
17
In my family, there are two strongly divided camps when it comes to Dr. Pepper.
18
Cottage cheese. Something about the texture is revolting. The texture and the color.
19
Oatmeal raisin cookies. I love a good homemade chewy oatmeal raisin cookie, but a lot of people act like raisins are evil rabbit turds.
20
Beets. Beet lovers know they taste like delicious dirt
22
Those sugar cookies with frosting and sprinkles that you find in most supermarkets!
23
CoconutI didn’t know this until recently. Highly controversial
24
Blue cheeseI try, but I just can't do it. I can't like it. I hear how my dad and brother sing their praises to it, but I can't even look at it. Any other cheese is fine, though
25
Marmite - my partner likes it, but I think it’s awful
