Scroll to see replies
OVERRATED: NUTELLA. Come on now, people. It's not like you've just been given free roam in Willy Wonka's chocolate factory with a bunch of naked models and handed a card for infinite money. IT'S A SPREAD. CHILL THE HELL OUT.
UNDERRATED: CROWNFIELD NOUGAT PILLOWS. Okay, so I rant on and on about them enough now that I can soon hardly call them "underrated" I guess... but for the time being I WISH TO CHAMPION THEM. Krave tastes like old tramp fart compared to them.
OVERRATED AND UNDERRATED: BEEF FLAVOURED ITEMS?

OVERRATED AND UNDERRATED: BEEF FLAVOURED ITEMS?
Overrated: Beef flavoured crisps. They're NOT the best flavour so stop telling me they are! Also, beef jerky. I think it's just a bit weird, but people seem to think its like amazing?!
Underrated: Beef OXO cubes, because they can add a lovely twist to a meal, like soup or gravy!
OVERRATED AND UNDERRATED OF PASTA DISHES?

OVER: Magnum. Going to an ice cream van and ordering a magnum, is like going to a brother and ordering a ****. You can do it yourself at home, you're probably paying more for it..and there's a lot more on offer.
UNDER: I'd say Mr Whippy, because they're the ultimate from a van BUT I think everyone loves these so they couldn't be under-rated. So I'll say SCREWBALLS. That little prize at the bottom, the fun shaped cone. Awwwh, screwballs, I love you.

over - steak et frites, cos i hate steak.
under - merlot... ahhhhhhhhhh
over and under of greggs food?

over and under of greggs food?
Over: Tuna Crunch sandwich. The bread is SO thick and the addition of onion into what could be a lovely tuna sandwich is devastating. Also their cheese and pepperoni pizza things... I come to Greggs for pastry goodness, not a badly done dominos wannabe. If I wanted pizza, trust me I wouldn't be here. And jam doughnuts- give it a rest, sure they're nice but I'm so bored of them now!
Under: Greggs 70p Ham In a Crusty Roll. These things are amazing; FACT. Yum Yums and gingerbread men are pretty underrated as cakey options go but they're actually really great in my view!
Under and over of salad recipes?

Under and over of salad recipes?
Over: Greek salad. It's so raved about, like it's meant to be something fancy and sophisticated. Oh, you're having a salad? Oh great..OH IT'S GREEK? WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY SO? No. It's just cubes of feta and some oregano and olives with usually poor quality lettuce. It has no skill. Stavros the salad, do one.
Under: Russian salads. Okay, so they're not healthy..but my oh my, the russians know how to do their salad dressings. If you haven't tried one, you really must..salad and vodka, the russians do it good.
over and under of pineapple dishes?
Over: baked pineapple in rum. Alcohol and dessert... NO! Pineapple in sweet and sour chicken/prawns. It's nice and all but Jeeze, it's not like WOW. And battered /deep fried pineapple from the chippy; it's nice but not amazing, so overrated in my view! Makes for disappointment when you do try it!
Under: ham and pineapple pizza; am I the only person in the world who likes this?!? Pineapple sorbet is REALLY nice, and so is dried pineapple! So moist and juicy! Also, pineapple and mint sauce is AMAZING.

over: the regular ham sandwich, i'd rather have roast beef or chicken any day.
under: jamón ibérico by itself or with a bit of cheese, tapas style. best ham in the world, shame it's so damn expensive!
over/under of fried chinese snacks/side orders?

Over and under of microwave desserts
Thanks bebs.
OVER: CAKE IN A CUP. This became some phenomenon..yeah, let's make cake in a mug. That's a great idea! Why is it? Why not make an ACTUAL cake? Or just buy one? It explodes, isn't as good or even close to properly cooked cake. You spend the time eating it thinking yeah this is pretty okay...considering I cooked it in the microwave! Hows about dont cook it in the michaelwave and PROPERLY enjoy cake.
UNDER: Weight Watchers sticky toffee puddings. Probably only under as they're pretty new so people aren't aware of them yet. But I'm very critical of weight watchers usually, but these are a GOOD shout.

S'my pleasure me dear
OVER: Milk Chocolate Digestives. Yeah, they're good. But for double the price of most other milk chocolate digestives that taste almost EXACTLY the same? Yeah, I'ma say overrated.
UNDER: It's hard to find something Mcvities that isn't ranted and raved about, so maybe Mint Penguins. I used to LOVE these when they came out.
over and under of carbohydrate based snacks?

Over: Nachos. I'd never pick these if I wanted an indulgent, carby snack. Alone, they dont have a great taste whatsoever. They're only nice if they're paired with a nice dip..so basically, its the dip I like, not the nachos.
Under: A plain slice of bread and butter. Oh my god, mid-day slumps, go make yourself a slice of bread and butter. Simply that. So easy but so perfect.

OVERATED: Mars Bars!!!!! Honestly, they may have been like the first popular chocolate or something but HELLO times are changing! (ditto for Milky Way!)
UNDERATED: Reeses Peanut Butter Cups. OMG (plus its so rare to find them in the UK!!)
okay.. Over and Under of Haribo sweets?!
