Things You Don't Like But Everybody Else Does? General Chat Golden Threads

[Regan]

I was reading an article about air fryers, and it mentioned that chips are fantastic when done in an air fryer and it made me think about the fact that I really really don't like chips, and how whenever I say this around other people, they look at me like I am some sort of monster.

I think my dislike of chips stems from being a kid and not liking the big fat greasy deep fat fryer things my mum used to make, and I used to end up hiding them all over the place so that I could pretend I'd eaten them, and therefore get my dessert afterwards. But even today, if I go into a chippy and ask for a burger with no chips, they still always end up putting a scoop of greasy splodge chips into the bag!

So, what do you not like that makes other people think you might be from another planet?

Avocado, apparently.

Fresh avocado just tastes like eating grass to me.

Also almonds. Can't stand them or anything that tastes like them.

Beans for me, can't stand the things. Always have to say no beans when ordering a fry up

Cats. They utterly repulse me. I have broken up with girls because they kept cats in the house.

Social media! Especially Facebook, Snapchat and TikTok nonsense.

McDonald's and Burger King.

Possibly in an emergency if it was the only option available but...no, just no.

McDonald's especially gives me a nauseous/upset stomach feeling almost any time I have stuff from there

Ketchup, how anyone consumes it is beyond me.

Bananas. Horrible.

Bananas. Horrible.

I used to hate them, but I find them tolerable now. Mostly just have them in smoothies and the like rather than on their own.

But the whole concept behind banoffee pie is completely disgusting to me. Bananas don't need to be anywhere near that. Toffee Pie. Just the exact same, but no banana.

Marzipan. Funnily enough, I don't think personally know anyone who actually likes it!

Nothing worse than getting a marzipan sweet unbeknownst to you out of a box of chocolates.

I do however like Turkish delight.
