What is one popular food trend you’ve never been able to get behind?

I’m just going to say it… Dubai chocolate. I see all the hype and I truly do not get it. It’s just whatever.

I never had it and won't buy it for that price. Same with angel chocolate but that one doesn't even look appealing.

I also never had pumpkin spice latte. Firstly, because I don't go to types of places where it's normally served, secondly, when there was the biggest hype around it I didn't drink coffee and lastly, it doesn't even sound good to me.

Mochi - it's okay but nowhere that amazing as Japanophiles try to make you believe. I'm also not paying 5 € for a box with 6 of them. I tried them, were okay but no delicacy I would buy regularly or even for some special occasion.

Lately, I'm starting to think Lindt is a bit overrated too. It's not bad but it's not worth the price they sell it for here. It's not a trend but it's quite popular, has good rap and is often presented as more luxurious.

Ghirardelli has the best Dubai flavor in my opinion. I tried several options and none of them were as good. My family tried it over xmas and loved it.

@deadmoon The pistachios in the brand I recommrned is light and they put in more crunchiness compared to other brands. Ive never tried the original Dubai brand and don't need to. Ghirardelli was the best that I found and not searching anymore.

@Blondily

In that case… think you’d like this? It’s a Dubai chocolate sundae from Ghirardelli. 😅

I mean it's nice, but it's also a bit too much for my taste. Like, yes I love it but it is not the chocolate that comes to mind when I think of chocolate.

@Boeing Same, lol. I love chocolate, but… I don’t know. I guess I’m just not a huge pistachio fan. I tried it just to see what all the fuss is about, but it’s definitely not my favorite chocolate treat.

Actually Dubai chocolate is great if done right :/ At one point I got addicted. Lol

A few years ago there was this trend of baked pasta with feta cheese and tomatoes. That was overrated imo

@Nunki i got it from my father
Dunkin, Starbucks Coffee, Chick-fil-A (I've never had it tbh)
Chipotle. I tried it finally and I don't see the big deal.
Red Bull- again, never had one
White Claw if it counts. Ewws it tastes like how I imagine booze made out of bear piss would taste.😵
Probably other stuff I'm forgetting.

@RockinPop54 Sushi doesn't have to be raw. I agree with you about raw seafood after a bad experience though. When I have sushi, it is always cooked.

I've heard the entire industry was born to cover up a more disgusting and prevalent meaning to the phrase "Dubai chocolate". 🤢😆
