People can argue about food, its preparation and the best combinations until the end of time. Somehow we all are born with different taste buds and there are people who like and dislike identical foods, so if you think about it, such a discussion is kind of pointless. 

But it still goes on as Redditor heystarbuckslover asks “What are some foods that most people have been eating the wrong way or not the way it was intended?” Most people interpreted the question a bit differently and actually told the weirdest and rarest ways they eat food or someone else does. 

Whether they answered the question directly or were talking about what they personally were eating wrong, this list of people’s mistakes may be viewed as educational or even inspirational if any of these wrong ways sound delicious to you.

People Explain That They Or Someone They Knew Have Been Eating These 30 Foods Wrong For The Longest Time My dad believes steak should be well done. And by well done, unseasoned shoe leather.
Growing up I never could fathom why anyone loved steaks, and why they were such an 'expensive treat' at the house.
My dad would buy these beautiful, thick cut rib eyes, then toss them on the flaming grill with no seasoning, cook them on one side for seven minutes, flip, then other side, till they had shrank half their size and were charred. Then he would berate us for using sauce because 'it covered up the flavor of the meat'.
No Scott, your inability to cook on a grill covers the flavor.
It wasn't until I was 18 and living on my own that I tried to grill my own.
Seasoned with garlic powder and salt, flipped on the flaming grill often and buttered between flips, taken off when I was tired of waiting, I had my first medium rare steak that melted in my mouth.
I have never let my father 'cook' me another steak since.

People Explain That They Or Someone They Knew Have Been Eating These 30 Foods Wrong For The Longest Time Okay, so this is more along the lines of me eating a certain dish the wrong way, but when I was little my mom would make french toast except she would put chilies, onions and sometimes chicken on it. I grew up thinking french toast was a savory dish until I ordered it at a diner and it was sweet. I still like my mom’s version of french toast better tbh.

People Explain That They Or Someone They Knew Have Been Eating These 30 Foods Wrong For The Longest Time I eat Kiwis with the hairy skin on. My mom said I seemed to like it so she wasn't going to stop me. Later on I find out that I'm a freak of nature for doing it, but I still eat it that way because I just like it. The only downside is that since I like the texture of the hair and skin, I have "forbidden fruit" moments when I'm looking at the abdomen of a tarantula.

People Explain That They Or Someone They Knew Have Been Eating These 30 Foods Wrong For The Longest Time [A man once sued a restaurant in Miami for serving him an artichoke which he promptly ate all of.] I don't mean like "he finished the artichoke" - I mean that this guy, who apparently is a *Doctor*, just ate the entire f*****g thing, including all of the inedible parts.

For those of you who have never encountered an Artichoke, the edible part of the plant is a fleshy substance that is on the inside parts of the leaves. You scrape it off and eat that part and discard the leaves. The artichoke heart, at the middle of all of the leaves, is also edible (and delicious). The stem and the fibrous leaves are not edible. Well I guess except to this guy.

People Explain That They Or Someone They Knew Have Been Eating These 30 Foods Wrong For The Longest Time For me, it was crackers with any sort of topping until my wife showed me the error of my ways.

I would always put cheese, or whatever spread I might be eating with the crackers on the top i.e. salty side of the cracker. My wife lost her ever loving mind when she saw me do this. She then proceeded to explain to me that I should turn the cracker over and put the spread, cheese, or whatever on the bottom so that the salty side would hit my tongue when I put the bite in my mouth.

It was a revelation.

Yeah, well there are these people out there, and I don't know who raised them or how they turned out the way they did, but they eat their tacos middle-out. They dip their heads down to their tacos and lick out all the insides first, then eat the soggy shell afterwards. Sometimes they don't even eat the shell. I can't take my kids out to the Taqueria anymore because of these freaks. I don't want my little girls to become taco lickers.

People Explain That They Or Someone They Knew Have Been Eating These 30 Foods Wrong For The Longest Time Vegemite. As an American I was tricked into eating some as a sandwich and was convinced it was just a food meant to prank people with. An Australian friend was alarmed when I recounted this and corrected the method for me.
"Oh GOD no, you don't eat it as a sandwich! You've gotta get yourself a nice piece of toast, spread a good layer of butter on it, then just the tiniest scrape of Vegemite over that. And if you can get a slice of cheap processed cheese on there, even better! Please please don't dismiss Vegemite until you give it another go."
This same friend introduced me to TimTams AND the TimTam slam, so who was I not to trust her implicitly?? I took her advice, and I'm glad I did. Ended up buying myself a little jar because dang, that's a nice little savory punch if you use it right!

People Explain That They Or Someone They Knew Have Been Eating These 30 Foods Wrong For The Longest Time It might have been said already, but I got tired of scrolling.

I don't know if it's "most", but I know it's fairly common to rinse off your pasta after you drain the water. Don't do that.

Also, cooking the pasta until it sticks to a wall means you over cooked it.

I've read plenty of ways "to make your pasta better" but those two simple things are the only ones that really made any difference to me.

The issue is this - once I pour the al dente pasta into the colander to drain, it's still cooking. If I leave it there for 5 mins while readying my sauce or whatever, it gets too soft. Rinsing lowers the temp of the pasta so it stops cooking and my al dente stays al dente. Am I missing something?

People Explain That They Or Someone They Knew Have Been Eating These 30 Foods Wrong For The Longest Time I don't know about most people, but growing up I always thought I hated guavas because they were so dry. Turns out, my parents used to cut out the best part--the fleshy seedy inside-- and serve me the dry rinds...

Edit: since a lot of the comments are confused, I'd like to clear a few things up.
My parents would cut out where the seeds are and eat the green part + the white parts where there are no seeds. not sure if that's fully the rind; I guess the easiest way to compare it is with a watermelon: it's like cutting away the red flesh and eating the skin + white part. no, my parents don't hate me (maybe for other reasons) because I've seen them throw away the seeds. we are Vietnamese and my parents prefer the dry, crunchy texture with some chili salt and think the seeds cause constipation.

They literally just use a fork and lift the whole steak up to their mouth and bite off pieces, instead of using a fork and knife to cut small bite size pieces to bring to your mouth with a fork, like the majority of the world does.

Gyros. Don’t get me wrong, I love a good lamb/beef/spices gyro that are so popular in the us, but in Greece the gyros are NOT preprocessed lamb and beef cones, but strips of pork skewered together, and OMG sooooo good.

There are some places that sell pork gyros and souvlaki. Do yourself a favor and try them.

Bake in a water bath for 45 minutes and refrigerate for at least 3 hours to develop flavors. To make gyros, fry slices of the pate in spiced oil and serve on pita bread with Tsatziki and Greek salad.

People Explain That They Or Someone They Knew Have Been Eating These 30 Foods Wrong For The Longest Time Bibimbap is supposed to be mixed up then eaten, not eaten individually. It's like a special rice dish that you mix yourself.

I mix mine up. I always put all of the different little bowls in there, too (rather than adjusting to taste)--I don't know what the "right way" is, but that's my way.

Your pork chops and Turkey are overcooked and not properly rested. That's why they're disgusting and dry.

Look up dry and wet brining.

Look up newer cooking temps. Cooking your turkey to 165 means it holds over to 170. And then you slice it immediately. And ALL the juices run out.

Cook pork chops to medium and let them rest.


LET ALL YOUR COOKED MEAT REST GODDAMNIT.


Edit:many comments on sous vide and not needing to rest. I dont have one so I cant comment. But apparently it's not needed. But most people dont have a sous vide.

Edit 2:
Some good debate on resting or not. While I respect the Meathead Goldwyn articles posted ( I use amazing ribs a lot) . I have a hard time accepting one mans opinion as fact, as so many others say otherwise. And maybe he is right as far as losing juices. But his method does not allow for making pan sauces or someone else wanting to eat something other than that steak first. Resting allows you to accomplish a few other tasks first. Some of which cant be completed until your steaks are out of the pan. Making his method give you a medium well or well done steak. If you want to pull your steak out of the heat and eat it right that second then go ahead. But that's the only way that will work.

An even better method: cook and eat your food the way you like it.

But hamburger buns have thin bottoms and thicker tops, turning the whole thing upside down ensures the bun integrity doesn't breakdown mid-meal. Especially if you have sauce and other toppings which can affect the structure of the bread.
