Your unpopular food opinions

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19,103]

Margaritas are the shittiest mixed drink on the planet, especially the way most people make them.

[HouTex 1,878]

Chicken fried steak is best with both gravy and ketchup.

Sushi sucks.

Pulled pork is the worst BBQ meat.

Sausage > bacon.

Cuisine ranking:
Indian > Mexican > Asian > Italian > French.

Ketchup and gravy on CFS is unpopular? I've been doing that all my life. And I must have 1/2 cream gravy and 1/2 brown gravy on the CFS.

No shit, and yet you pass by any of their locations and there're always busy. I'd rather eat boiled owl.

Ketchup sucks.  Anything that "tastes better" with ketchup must have really sucked.

This is the first "unpopular opinions" thread that ever made me want to round up people for public executions.

Those posters that are blaspheming Whataburger and refried beans will be the first to lined up against the wall.

Yeah, I'm not a burger snob by any means---but for a burger that fast---Whataburger is dammed good.  

I'll throw out what I know will be unpopular---Chicken Fried Steak doesn't taste good and it's a moronic use of a steak. You take literally one of the best foods in the world and douse it in breading and fry it?  Why?  I get frying shitty food like cod or catfish because they taste like garbage on their own.  But steak?  Why?  I've seen grown men, who won't eat a steak that is cooked more than medium rare, eat a fried steak.  That makes zero sense.

Uhhh Chicken Fried Steak isn’t made with some prime cut of steak...it’s cube steak typically sourced from the round (you know the ass end of the cow)

Never needed a fork for giordanos.  Somehow, the crisp bottom crust just holds all of that cheese and sauce in all their glory.  Same goes for Detroit style.

[HouTex 1,878]

You still might find it disgusting, but to be clear, they are not mixed. I really like both cream and brown gravy so I get half of the CFS topped with cream gravy and the other half topped with brown gravy. Sort of like Christmas enchiladas in New Mexico.

Interesting. I’ve had Lou Malnati’s quite a few times and it’s usually underwhelming. Might have to try Giordanos.

Because, unlike you, we are secure in our masculinity and adore a blob of Duke's deliciousness on our cheeseburgers, fried egg skangvitches and what not.  Mayo is heaven sent.  

Sriracha, however, is an abomination.  

[conVINCEd 21,469]

Pickles.  Hate them.  Any and all varieties.

[Mr.Hovis 70]

I was always in the team mustard camp and considered mayonnaise/miracle whip the devils slop. Then had home made mayonnaise{red wine  vinegar type) and it was a game changer. 4-5 ingredients and maybe 15 minutes of your time and say adios to the store bought crap.

It's not complete agreement, but you and I appear to be on the same page a statistically significant amount of time.

The popularity of non-sausage pork products is a mystery to me. Bacon is okay (even great as a garnish or wrap) but as a stand-alone, sausage is better.

Not just mayo but extra mayo on a Whataburger?

Lotta motherfuckers up in here have never had good seafood, clearly. 

I think the quarter pounder with cheese is as good a fast food burger you can get.

Tea (sweet or unsweet) is terrible and no amount of sugar or anything else you put in it will make it taste good.

I would put A1 sauce on the greatest steak ever cooked in the all of human history. 

A1 is also fantastic on chicken fried steak and baked potatoes.

There is not a single redeeming thing about corn. Elotes is only good because of the 10 other delicious additions.

You Pepsi drinkers are a bunch of yankee MFers up in here.

My unpopular food opinion is that all things cucumber suck.  Raw cucumbers.  Pickled cucumbers.  Pickled cucumber relish.  Gross, gross, gross.

Yup, has cucumber in it, so... also gross.

Just a little Greek yogurt with some oilive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and dill works wonders in its place, tastes so much better without any disgusting cucumber flavor.

Italian cuisine is hugely overrated.  (Same for french).

Don't get me wrong: I cook tons of it at home because of the simplicity; I like their concept of micro-regionality; etc etc

But I've been to enough regions enough times with enough locals/nationals in all sorts joints but still don't come home feeling impressed.

To contrast, places where my gluttony is assuredly satisfied: Spain, and Malaysia/Singapore
