gross

it almost tastes like medicine to me a
little bit yeah it's some csiro
researchers say the aim of the broccoli
powder is to increase
farm yields while simultaneously helping
aussies
get more veggies in their diet just like
it pairs water with like
a little bit of a green tea as well with
one gin
for this list we'll be looking at
various food trends from recent years
that are
borderline disgusting what is the
nastiest thing you've ever eaten

put on your bibs and
let the gross begin

number 10 freak shakes
milkshakes make for a yummy little treat
yummy
you think i could have said that they
are a cornerstone of any local diner and
humanity has been enjoying them for a
century
and then there are freak shakes the
hottest drink this summer
it's called the freak day the late 2010s
saw a surge of so-called freak shakes on
instagram which are essentially
just milkshakes loaded with an obscene
amount of treats
they make for fantastic pictures and
they look beautiful
but they would prove an absolute
nightmare to eat
or drink we don't know it's estimated
that a typical freak shake contains
around 95 grams of sugar
which is three times a human's daily
value
some even reach 156 grams which is the
equivalent of 16 glazed donuts
if nothing else that would make for one
insane
sugar rush
number nine novelty sodas
what exactly is the point of novelty
food items
no it's spicy it's spicy dude
they're often more expensive than the
widely beloved versions
and they never really taste good to boot
this is especially egregious with sodas
because honestly
who wants to drink a soda that tastes
like ranch dressing if it's supposed to
be ranch you're supposed to be ready
they
failed it's not good there are dozens
upon dozens of unique novelty flavors
out there like grass
teriyaki beef jerky lavender ketchup and
even
turkey and gravy some of these may taste
good
provided the engineer is a soda wizard
otherwise
these seem more like conversation pieces
than
genuine drinks this one tastes like barf
okay
it's also going to taste like barf when
it comes right back out it says great
chunky flavor
number eight unorthodox chip flavors
it's not just soda companies that love
to pump out novelty items
potato chip manufacturers are suckers
for a good eye popper
resulting in flavors like cappuccino and
mango salsa
those were engineered by lays one of the
biggest chip companies
in the world and if the today's staff
can be trusted
they leave an unpleasant lingering
aftertaste
and taste like a chemical attack on your
mouth
that's just touching the surface of the
novelty chip business
which also includes the likes of crab
prawn cocktail
seaweed and cinnamon and sugar chips
and to think lay's ketchup flavor is
considered weird
number seven dessert hummus
hummus is a middle eastern food staple
enjoyed around the world
consisting of mashed chickpeas tahini
garlic and lemon juice
in comes dessert hummus a highly suspect
concoction that turns a healthy spread
into a sweet tasting treat it's just
it's just it's just this concept really
took off after delighted by and its
founder mackenzie marsloff
appeared on shark tank cinnamon and
vanilla beans are used in place of lemon
and garlic
it went over well with the sharks and
various flavors of dessert hummus can be
found in whole foods and walmart with
flavors like vanilla bean
brownie batter and snickerdoodle a
savory food as
sweet there's just something really
unappealing about that no matter how
good the hummus itself may taste
it looks like some fudge i would say
maybe some icing
it's like a dessert maybe a pudding
number six rainbow slash unicorn foods
the late 2010 saw a bizarre food trend
as people the world over were covering
their food with pastel colors
to make it look better for instagram or
something there wasn't really a point to
it and it only made the food itself look
unappetizing things reached ahead in
april of 2017 when starbucks introduced
the unicorn frappuccino
which was made with a combination of
pink powder sour blue powder
and blue drizzle it gave the drink a
distinctive purple appearance
and the frap was largely criticized for
containing an abundance of sugar
about three times as much as the average
woman needs in a day
and two times as much for the average
man it almost tastes like medicine to me
a little bit yeah it's some
like pepto-bismol number five broccoli
coffee
back in 2018 common folk cafe in
melbourne australia began
serving a broccoli latte or more cutely
the broccolatte um and we figured well
it's melbourne so
what better to do than to turn it into a
latte it was created by the commonwealth
scientific and industrial research
organization
and hort innovation as a means to get
australians to eat their veggies
scientists have taken leftover crops
dried them out
transformed them into powder form
keeping the nutrients intact
it's made from a high fiber broccoli
powder essentially
just broccoli that has been dried and
ground up into a dust
that is then stirred into the drink we
don't care how
healthy it is we're not drinking
broccoli coffee the organization admits
that the drink has received
mixed reviews since its introduction
they're probably putting it nicely
i really don't think that you are still
getting the same amount of fiber
antioxidants and good benefits of
broccoli number four
charcoal food charcoal can do it all
these little chunks of carbon are used
in a variety of fashions
cooking and heating pyrotechnics art
animal husbandry
and even hygiene oh and and also food
stuff
2017 saw another bizarre food trend
and that was infusing food and drink
with activated charcoal
instagram was filled with pure black
pizzas cocktails and ice cream
why no one really knows but we do know
it's not very good for you with doctors
claiming that charcoal will cause
constipation
absorb helpful nutrients from other
sources of food
and even interfere with medications if
you're repeatedly doing this it could
build up
and it can also interact with
medications you're taking so
if you're taking it around the same time
that you take a prescription medicine
that medicine may not be absorbed by
your body so it may not be as effective
it also went against health guidelines
in new york where the fda
banned it as a food additive number
three
drinking butter the mid-2010 saw a food
craze that seems more dangerous than
disgusting
drinking butter dave asprey
gave rise to the concept of bulletproof
coffee
that being coffee with a tablespoon of
butter and kourtney kardashian revealed
in a blog post that she drank clarified
butter
every morning in came the butter teas
and coffees which was said to
supercharge
your brain and give you tons of energy
however
it's also packed with calories saturated
fat and cholesterol
and there's no evidence to suggest that
it boosts energy or mental clarity when
you add things like butter and coconut
oil to your coffee
you're adding a significant amount of
saturated fat and a significant amount
of calories
in fact it's suggested that the energy
boost that drinkers experience
is nothing but a regular caffeine buzz
from the coffee itself
number two deep fried butter this is
exactly what it sounds like
slabs of butter coated in a batter and
deep fried
this was reportedly invented in 2009 by
a man suitably known
as fry jesus for the state fair of texas
we got several different toppings a new
topping off menu today is
cinnamon sugar and honey okay we also
have cherry grape
garlic like most fair foods it's nothing
but a novelty and should most definitely
not be made part of a regular diet
it's a hundred percent you know bad whip
butter so it's not
you know doesn't have any of the
artificial stuff in it a few different
iterations followed including fried
butter on a stick
and a coronary combo that consisted of
deep fried butter
and chocolate covered bacon oh my heart
just stopped
ah there it goes even paula deen got in
on the action and published her own
recipe for deep fried butter
balls it apparently tastes like french
toast
we don't want to find out we suggest you
don't either the butter
kind of leaks all over me and that
breakfasty batter
it tastes like a kind of like a cinnamon
roll

number one poop themed foods and
restaurants
it's really really strange oh let's get
one thing clear
these foods aren't actually made from
poop
if you feel the need to vomit up there
just swallow it that would violate an
insane amount of health regulations
and probably would land the proprietor
in prison but some restaurants are poop
themed and we don't know how to feel
about it
toronto hosts the poop cafe dessert bar
which is decorated with toilet chairs
poop decor and poop-based facts
plastered on the wall
patrons eat out of toilet bowl shaped
dishes and the restaurant serves
desserts in the shape of
well you know similar cafes can also be
found in seoul
taiwan and los angeles with the magic
restroom cafe looking like a giant
communal washroom
and judging by the google reviews it's
not a very good place to eat
