It's natural for people to have different tastes – taste in music, movies, interior design, clothes. The same goes for food. Different people like the taste of different things. Some people have a sweet tooth, others go crazy for all things savory. But can we say there are foods that almost everyone likes? Pizza, maybe?

Redditor YarnSpectre wanted to know if there are popular foods people just don't get the hype about. They asked netizens 'What's one food everyone seems to go crazy for, but you just don't understand the hype?' And the people delivered – from parsley, truffles and pumpkin spice to olives, kombucha and bacon. Wait, there are people who don't like bacon?!

Bored Panda reached out to the author of this thread, YarnSpectre. She was kind enough to chat with us and tell us more about what inspired the post on r/AskReddit.

"It was just one of those weird random thoughts," YarnSpectre says when we ask her about the inspiration for this thread. The Redditor explained that her brain just sometimes goes to weird places. 

In her opinion, the most overhyped popular food is the croissant. Apparently, not everyone feels this way – 142 million people in the US alone enjoyed croissants in 2020. Their popularity is undeniable, but their haters are plenty as well. And YarnSpectre is not alone in this.

Blogger Peter Michaels described croissants as "pretentious, overpriced toast." "I mean, they can't decide if they're bread or cake," he wrote on his blog back in 2021. "You can eat them for breakfast? Can't be a cake."

Croissants had some haters among other commenters in this thread as well. User Scherbatskyyyyyyyy wrote: "I eat to be full, so having a bite with [a] paper-like break with lots [of] air inside is not for me, especially [if] it costs $4 and I'm still hungry."

Still, the Redditor doesn't think it's fair to yuck other people's yums. "It's fine to politely say 'I don't care for that', but not ok to criticize or pick apart what you think is wrong with it," YarnSpectre shared with Bored Panda.

For a long time, we believed that our tongues had different taste zones. But today scientists believe that all regions of the tongue can detect different taste qualities. And not just the sweet, the sour, the salty and the bitter. There's also a fifth one – savory, also referred to as umami.

Love them. But they aren’t something you could just eat a bunch like other mushrooms, which I also love. Even if you don’t necessarily like it it’s hard to not agree that the taste is unique, and powerful. I worked for a high end catering company in NYC and we would get cases of them in and I would shave this slices for various dishes. If it’s an acquired taste I certainly acquired it then. Mushrooms varieties other than portobello/cremini/button are not commonly found in restaurants in the US. Chanterelle, morel, woodsear, enoki, lion mane, lobster, porcini, oh so many delicious and unique flavors. But, truffles outshine them all in its unique firm texture, aroma and flavor.

Wings. Lotta work and mess for nibbles of wet meat

Jasher1125 Report

Neuroscientist and taste expert at the Monell Chemical Senses Center in Philadelphia, Brian Lewandowski told Brain Facts that the differences picked up in the different zones are there, but are too minute to actually matter. 

"All regions of the tongue that detect taste respond to all five taste qualities. There are some mild regional differences in sensitivity for different taste qualities, but these differences are small enough that they do not play a clear role in taste perception."

We can explain scientifically why some people like a certain food and others hate it. It's apparently in your genes.

Yes. Actual licorice can be unhealthy in large quantities and people with certain sensitivities will want to avoid glycyrrhizic acid in whatever form it takes (that being what causes issues listed). Also, take note that a lot of "licorice" candy is just anise, so you do not risk the same health problems with it. Never hurts to be cautious!

My father, who was Dutch, used to give us salted licorice for sore throats. I hate licorice in all forms but especially the salted one. I used to hold it in my cheek and spit it into a pot plant when no-one was looking. On the other hand, my partner loves licorice and when we were in the Netherland a few years ago we went to a specialty store so he could buy bags of all the different types.

There is such a big diversity of licorice here in the Netherlands. There are kinds that I don't like, kinds that I do like, some that I love and some that are digusting. There are all kinds of flavours - salty, sweet, salmiac, mix. Structure is hard/rubbery, soft, sticky, hard (like hard candy)..
