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.

“I Refuse To Believe A Single Soul Wants To Eat It”: 35 People Share Overhyped Foods Aussie here. Oreos….meh, there’s plenty of way better biscuits around

"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."

    I can't eat anything with a weird texture. My mother told me that I wouldn't eat babyfood; I'd just split it out. I went from formula straight to solid food. My father would give me steak bones to suck on before I even had teeth. Needless to say, I can't eat clams, oysters, or anything with tapioca. However, I did get to try caviar once and loved it. The texture wasn't objectionable to me whatsoever! I wish I could afford to buy some myself.

    It's a cultivated taste like Scotch whiskey. As a SE Louisiana boy I would eat the fried, in stew and gumbo, Rockefeller, Bienville but never raw like my friends did. So, I learned to love them and now, three dozen on the half-shell with some spicy seafood sauce and saltine crackers with three bloody mary drinks is a special meal for me.

    The first time I tried one was on French exchange, age 14.. at a fish market on the Quay in Dinard in France. I asked our French teacher how they cooked them...he looked at me and said "they aren't cooked, they are raw, and still alive". Well that was in for me. Mine rejoined its family in the sea, along with several of the ones my friends had tried. I have never had one since!

    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.

    "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."

    OMG same and I'm an American! WTF is it with the ranch and ranch flavored everything? I thought I hated salad until I was in my 20s and discovered vinaigrette. I didn't hate salad. I hated ranch dressing!

    It does NOT taste like cheese. It smells like what I imagine an early to mid severity case of trench foot would.

    it is amazing on food. I love it. Specially with foods with umami (mushrooms for example).

    A long time I thought I hate it, but then I was in Italy and my Italian wasn't that good and accidently I ordered a pizza with anchovies. I am a very proud person and I did not want to admit my mistake so I sayed nothing and ate it. Since this time I love it more than it's good for me.

    Macarons. I never cared for them either. I had one yesterday at a potluck, homemade ones. They were seriously something else, with some sort of butter cream and jelly inside. Never had anything quite like it. Now I wish I had grabbed a few to take home. Still won't eat store bought ones though.

    Depending on where you are buying them, most "store bought" macarons shouldn't be legally permitted to call themselves macarons!

    Poutine. Cheese curds are a big nope from me. Especially on soggy fries. I’ve had someone tell me “but they squeak on your teeth!” as if that would somehow change my stance lol
