Food preferences are always a controversial topic.
Take a person who likes pineapple on pizza, for example, or someone who thinks that peanut butter and Nutella are disgusting. The blasphemy!
This just proves that not all food opinions are universal! And that's okay.
Here are 19 controversial food opinions that will definitely flare some tempers!
This person states that you can eat a steak in the morning and fry an egg for dinner if you want. At the end (or beginning) of the day, it's just food. Steak and eggs, anyone?
"I don’t mind the taste of baked beans but I hate how slimy they are and don’t even get me started on when they’re cold." - u/deleted
"I don't want to be fishing around in my damn pasta because you couldn't be bothered to remove the tails first." - u/bkrimzen
Let's rattle off a few examples, shall we? Corn on the cob, marshmallows, hot dogs, tortillas, and Brussels sprouts. It adds a nice charred flavor to these items!
"Crock pots don't even take long to clean and that's generally the only thing other than plates/utensils that'll need to be cleaned after you eat. You're only saving yourself a couple of minutes. My best friend has disposable everything and it [expletive] drives me bonkers." -u/Alexstarfire
"I am vegetarian. Most restaurants should just stop serving vegetarian dishes if they can't be bothered to make something that tastes good. You cannot just put kale, quinoa, some random veg, and a vinaigrette in a bowl and charge $25." - u/goatpengertie
FINALLY someone said it! It makes no sense to call them red onions when they are obviously purple, both before and after cooking. Color matters when it comes to vegetables.
"I sort of forced myself to 'like' peas until one day I found I actually do like them. Same with Scotch, smelly cheese, cigarettes and wasabi." - u/chrysalis_stage
"Anyone who gets mad at the tiny change you made to some classic italian dish is really just mad that your version tastes better than their grandmother's. Sometimes I put garlic in my carbonara just to watch the world burn. Its pretty good." - u/MrPeppa
Sure, it's tiring, but so is a massive amount of dishes at the end of cooking. One Redditor who went to culinary school said that it was the single most important thing they learned.
"It's ok to mix the sauce into the spaghetti and then serve it. Especially if everyone is eating the exact same thing." - u/AnnieOakleysKid
"Most people don't know how to use its capabilities," this Redditor wrote. We guess you can make those orange marmalade Brussel sprouts like that person's mother makes.
The person who shared this isn't even vegan or vegetarian, so you know that they mean it! They said that adding a number of meatless dishes to your diet is a good change of pace.
"You’re just spreading more bacteria when you let the water and meat juices splash around with each other." - u/kayciance
"While I eat medium burgers and steak myself (unless there’s a ton of toppings then I’ll do smashed patties), it’s totally possible to have a nice juicy well done version of these things." - u/deleted
We never thought to try this, but this sounds super delicious! Just make sure the person you're cooking for isn't allergic to nuts.
"TikTok videos especially with comments like 'it ain't seasoned until someone sneezing' while dumping dried herbs all over and smothering the meat. Especially with good cuts of steak, kosher salt and ground pepper is all you need." - u/foxbluesocks
"The glorification of MSG-free foods is deeply rooted in anti-Chinese racism (googling ‘MSG racism’ will give a lot of interesting results). It’s delicious, and I keep a salt shaker full of the stuff around." - u/GiraffeCreature
