Pic very much related to that last point.
tabasco is better than sriracha.
>>7062757
>Ramen is generally gross.
Ramen is good but we hate it because college students who don't want to put effort into cooking will come here asking for "Ramen Hacks"
>American south/west cooking is one of the best cuisines in the world.
It is one of the best in the world
> Chinese food (with a few exceptions) kind of sucks.
> German food is alright.
> Thai food is good but overrated.
> French food is overrated.
Now you're just posting shit to get attention
> Almost all creations posted on this board involving layers of meats, sauces and cheeses combined in "crazy" new ways, look absolutely disgusting.
This is only heretical if you're from reddit
Enjoy your (You)
>___ is overrated
get over yourself you cunt
>>7062769
You can't say Southern American cooking is the best then say French Cooking is overrated you gobber
>>7062850
I fucked up my post but basically you're contradicting yourself anon.
>The American hamburger is by far the least offensive cultural cuisine in terms of how intrinsically unhealthy it is.
>Black coffee is disgusting
>>7062895
i agree. i honestly just hate coffee all together.
Bacon is disgusting
>>7062769
I like german food.
>>7062757
I Agree OP
Steaks are not fancy food unless you're poor.
There's no reason to spend time learning to cook "the perfect steak".

Alcohol is disgusting and destructive. If you drink I will immediately look down on you and see you as a lesser being.
>>7063554
>If you drink I will immediately look down on you and see you as a lesser being.
That's funny, I do the same thing with people who don't drink
>>7063542
is it only worth learning to cook something if it's 'fancy'?
isn't it kind of important to learn how to sear a piece of meat in a pan to a specific doneness? don't you think this knowledge might be applicable to a lot of other things? isn't the utility you get from cooking something more important than the 'fanciness' of it? do people only learn to cook omelettes or stews because they're 'fancy'? have you experienced ejaculation yet?
>>7062901
try it with butter
>>7063554
haha you're a faggot.
>>7063554
So any inebriant or just alcohol? What about cooking with alcohol?
Ketchup ruins food
>>7062872
That award goes to pizza, my friend.
Even a cheeseburger has some semblance of protein and sometimes vegetable matter. Pizza is cheese on bread with a tiny bit of sauce and greasy "meat" on top.
>meat is murder
>Ramen (real ramen, not that store bought shit) blows Pho out of the water.
>Sushi is good, but doesn't deserve the high price and chic image.
>Steaks are horrifically overpriced in restaurants to that point that they're virtually never worth buying when you're out at one.
>Bacon is culturally overrated.
>>7062757
what kind of retard thinks carbonara can't have cream? it's literally one of the base ingredients
>>7062757
vodka is clearly the best form of booze
vape pens/e cigs aren't half bad and can help recovering addicts^
why don't you like onions
mushrooms are not the truwitemans food and taste like the soil they come from
blue cheese is nasty
if you are in NY get a fucking corned beef sammie and slicca of pretza, the "locals" dont know whats best
del taco and in n out are objectively the best fast food options
my uncle did not commit murder
taco bell has been lacking hard in the last few years on quality, trying to get me to drop 3-4 bucks for a cheesy gordita crunch when they put little to no cheese inbetween the shells fuck that

>>7063554
I found that people who dont drink for non medical reasons are weird as shit and I dont trust them. Not everyone that drinks is a drunk and humans have been doing it for thousands of years. Its part of who we are.
Heres my unpopular opinions.
>all curry is gross and smells like shit
>pancakes and waffles are filler/a waste of time
Get that crap outta here.
>my ideal breakfast is a bowl of grits with some scrambled eggs in there with salt and pepper and some buttered wheat toast
Everyone around me seems to hate grits but they are baller as shit, i could eat grits everyday.
Also im not sure if this is unpopular or not but do sandwiches taste better if someone else makes them? A girlfriend sandwich is so much better than a sandwich I made myself for some reason.
>>7064681
But all of this is true.
You know what, I think uncured sliced pork belly is going to be the may may food of the future. Its going to replace bacon strips. The epic meal time bacon shit is getting tired and worn out even to normals.
>>7064639
You appear to think he said the opposite of what he said. he isn't greentexting sarcastically. he's saying that burgers aren't actually that bad compared to stuff like mexican or italian carbMountains, or whatever british people do to their organs.
The best topping for tendies is ketchup.
The best kolaches are with plain sausage and nothing else. No cheese, no jalapeños.
Not sure if it's unpopular or not, but I prefer tacos without cheese.
I don't like ice cream. It's too cold and dairy disgusts me. (aside from cheese on certain things)
>>7062757
Mainly this:
> Like my meat extremly well done. No blood
>>7062757
I actually like a pizza that is one day old
>I fucking hate onion, I never cook anything with onion, which makes my dishes a little "unusual" since there's that "no onion" twist added

I'm with you.
>>7065148
>Korean food is shit
>British food is under appreciated
I think you got those two mixed up there buddy.
>>7064865
Typically mexican tacos don't have cheese on them, that's a more american thing. Delicious either way, but if you're not down with cheese you should hit up a place that has a mostly mexican clientele.

>>7065599
Bland is bad. Mild, subtle, plain, etc is not.
Bland implies an absence of something that should be there. It's a word with inherently negative connotations.
I get what you mean though.
>>7066832
Well for me, mashed potatos with only salt, butter and cream aren't bland, they have a subtle taste. /ck/ doesn't agree. Meanwhile /ck/ goes crazy when you mention how sushi is bland.
>Central Asia and Caucasus cuisine is underrated.
>Chinese is overrated. Dim sums are not even in top 10 of dumplings

I did this for a while, until I've noticed have much of a dumbfuck I was. Decent drinking keeps me sane, keeps my feet on the ground.
>>7062757
all of this is true, but the french food statement. Honour to whom honor is due.
>>7063379
not exactly disgusting, but it can ruin a whole recipe if you don't know what you are doing.
>>7064618
ketchup: this seems to be a popular opinion here. nevertheless I think it's still one of the best condiments around. But:
> BBQ sauce is really disgusting
>I think Russian and British foods are pretty hearty and good

If your taste buds can't comprehend mushrooms that may be a sign that you just have to end it you know...

>/ck/ goes crazy when you mention how sushi is bland
Because this is a Japanese image board, you'd be surprised how many disgusting weeaboos are on the other side of the screen, clinching their body pillows and posting disgusting Jap foods that they've only seen in anime.
>>7062757

I assume you are Đ¿Đ¸Đ´opac.
Diet soda tastes better than regular soda
regular feels like drinking a can of soda-flavored maple syrup; it's way too thick.

And yet another thread is allowed up where the op shitposts.
kraft parmesan is really good.
i keep both real parmigiano-reggiano and kraft parm in my house. one isn't a substitute for another. they're both very distinct products with different uses.
>>7067620
OP is always Đ¿Đ¸Đ´opac
>>7067737
>they're both very distinct products
agreed
>with different uses.
I can't imagine a use for green can cheese. Please enlighten me.
Cheese is nice.
Melted cheese is disgusting, putrid and I will refuse to eat anything with melted cheese on it.
>>7067829
kraft parm is powdery and doesn't melt. i just really like the texture/body it gives pasta. especially plain or lightly-sauced pasta.
>>7062757
There has never been an instance when "Homemade is better" was true.
>>7067870
However there are several instances where homemade is cheaper!
>>7067877
>The only instances I can think of where homemade isn't better are very good restaurants.
I think that was the point.
>>7067921
>When people say "homemade is better" they aren't saying it's the absolute best, that nobody can beat it. They are trying to say it's better than chain restaurant shit or supermarket meals.
No, I don't think that's what they mean.
>>7067863
So it doesn't bother you that it tastes like snot?
>>7067953
>not liking the taste of snot
pretty pleb honestly
Anyone who calls it sriracha sauce should be killed
>>7068199
Mah nigga
Green peppers are pretty shit, especially raw. Red and yellow peppers are superior in every way.
Flyover-style "Japanese Steakhouses/Hibachi" is uniformly awful and I in no way understand the appeal.
People who don't appreciate roast chicken skin or the fat on meat don't truly appreciate food.
Vegan food can be good, but there's no reason to do it all the time (except for health reasons).
Pork chili > beef chili. No beans in either, though.
Picky eaters are emotionally immature. See: half this thread.
Every cuisine has great dishes, and every cuisine has tasteless fucks messing it up.
Bagged pork scratching/chicharrones is the worst iteration of that dish. Go fresh or go home.
Cheddar cheese is shit on burgers or hot sandwiches unless it's been broiled or browned. 90% of the time American is the superior choice.
>>7068257
What is it called?
>>7064782
>I found that people who dont drink for non medical reasons are weird as shit and I dont trust them. Not everyone that drinks is a drunk and humans have been doing it for thousands of years. Its part of who we are.
True. Even those crazy prudes who wrote the bible and forbid to make clothes from 2 kinds of fabric had a god who did some winemaking magic so a party could continue
>>7067212
Pickled vegetables on a roast beef sandwich is god tier.
>>7062857
Just because two things are very different, it doesn't necessarily mean that both are not good in their own way.
>>7066832
Bland is not necessarily bad, but it does have a negative connotation.
Similar to the word ignorant.
>beans in chili differentiate it from being only a spicy meat sauce.
>>7063556
Not the guy you responded to, but get over yourself, you elitist dick. You both should. I fucking hate you people who look down on others because they drink/abstain. Fuck you.
>>7068527
I demand an apology for the way you just spoke about me.
>>7068540
I'm sorry you're such a stupid bitch
>>7068639
No.
I want to see you GROVEL for my forgiveness.
>>7067737
This.
Real parmigiano should be used IN stuff, while I find powdered parmesan to be useful a great topping for soups and spaghetti.
>every once in awhile I like to make spaghetti with regular can sauce, unseasoned beef, and topping it with a ton of powdered parmesan.
Shit's comfy as fuck.
i honestly don't care how other people want to cook or eat food that they bought with their own money
you want a well done steak with mayo? knock yourself out, i'm not your boss
its made this board a lot more bearable

>Candy/sweets are terrible. The sheer amount of sugar makes my teeth ache just thinking about it.

>>7069985
>>Red wine goes well with cheese
Is it an unpopular opinion in the first place?
>>7063379
I don't think it's terrible but I'm tired of this fucking bacon meme and people get shocked if I don't order it.
It's literally a slice of pork, the only thing it's good for is playing pranks on muslims.
>>7062757
lasagna is best 'sta
>>7070188
I've seen the strangest ideas about wine on /ck/
There's this one guy who militantly insists that merlot is sweet
Then there are the people who think Aus/NZ wine is good
Maybe it's the same guy
>>7070191
you are such a fucking teenager holy shit
everyone has loved bacon since bacon existed, it is not a meme, it is not 'literally a slice of pork', and you have never played a pork-based prank on a muslim, plus if you did you'd be a massive cunt.

How is bacon -not- "literally a slice of pork"?
Do you not know the meaning of literally?
Are you confused by what a pig is?
>>7062766
Fucking this, Sriracha just over powers EVERYTHING
>>7070380
>everyone has loved bacon since bacon existed, it is not a meme
Then it's a fucking meme you dumb faggot.
I think Ja/ck/ is a good coock and a wholesome loving family man.
>>7070544
>A meme acts as a unit for carrying cultural ideas, symbols, or practices that can be transmitted from one mind to another through writing, speech, gestures, rituals, or other imitable phenomena with a mimicked theme.
So, bacon "carries cultural ideas, symbols, or practices" from person to person?
>>7062757
> Sugar on pancakes is a crime
>>7067441
>plaebian
Opinion discarded.
>>7067950
You are wrong. Otherwise, they'd say "There has never been an instance when 'Homemade is best' was true."
But I doubt even that statement.
>>7064730
>cream
>base ingredient
how can you be this fucking dense?
cream in pasta is almost entirely a no-go in italian cuisine anyways, never mind that carbonara sauce is specifically designated as black pepper eggs guanciale and pecorino.
bacon and parmesan are acceptable substitutes for the last two, but if you add cream you are kidding yourself.
enjoy your cream pasta but dont pretend like you're doing it right.
