    Unpopular Food and Drink Opinions
    Do you think you have any food and drink opinion(s) that could be considered unpopular or even 'controversial'?

    I really like cabbage. Particularly fried and sprinkled with salt and pepper. And particularly on its own. Everyone else seems to think that's abnormal.

    There are very few take-aways that you can't do better at home for half the cost.

    The market leader in a particular category is generally not actually that goood quality: eg Domino's, Ben and Jerrys, KFC, Coca Cola. You can get supermarket own brands that are better than all of them.

    Most people couldn't tell the difference in a blind taste test between, well, almost anything.

    The food you can get in the UK - either in restaurants or the supermarket - is the highest quality and most variety in the world. Only France and the US come close.

    I think modern food hygeine laws are responsible for high rates of food poisoning, weakened immune systems.

    I know for a fact brands are what sell fast food, subways, mcdonalds, kfc etc. I've read studies on it, marketing is powerful.

    Cooking steak any further than rare is a waste of time and beef.

    Agree 100%. Ham and Pineapple is awesome in my opinion.

    I also love mincemeat (the stuff in mince pies) straight from the jar.

    Coca Cola/Pepsi is the most disgusting drink ever created. It literally makes me sick just thinking about it, I have no idea how people can enjoy drinking this toxic acid.

    Apparently (after Contrad!ction.'s comment I did a google search of 'the most unpopular foods) a lot of people dislike anchovies.

    I love em!

    I also like lumpy porridge, and REALLY overly cordial-ified juice drinks.

    Cooked mushrooms are high on my fave food list (a lot of people dont like the slimy texture). I also love beetroot.

    I love it too. Can't believe that people moan about fruit on a pizza - tomato is a fruit too.

    Cheese is horrible.
    Stir-fried broccoli is delicious (I'm yet to meet someone who shares my opinion).
    Well-done steak is a tragedy.
