all this is for a croissant and a donut those things already existed
have you ever eaten something just because someone swore it was the best thing they
ever had it was the best burger i ever had i still have dreams about this burger just
because people say something is good doesn't mean you should always follow the hype
here are ten popular foods that are clearly overrated part two ice cream wow it's a little
early for ice cream it's never too early for ice cream jim now before you get all angry and
starts throwing rocks please hear this out ice cream isn't bad at all in fact it's the perfect
summer treat and a dessert staple in many parts of the world however what makes it great isn't
the ice cream it's the stuff that comes with it topping stopping stopping stopping stopping
the sugary cones the sprinkles the cookie crumbs you name it that's what makes it an actual treat
otherwise what do you have frozen sugar milk scooped in a sad boring looking bowl liquefying in
minutes only to be left with melted mess no thanks all the flavor and fun comes from the toppings
not the almost tasteless vanilla scoop it has no taste we feed it to small baby and very old people
it's merely a guest in the sundae bowl at best plus why is it so darn cold on your teeth that it
hurts it's not a fun thing to eat and it certainly shouldn't be taking over social media like it is
you bought an ice cream cone good for you now let's see you take it up a notch and
make it exciting as a functioning member of society it's time to put a stop to this madness
ice cream is overrated and so is your instagram post bacon say i smell bacon does anyone else
smell bacon what is up with people and their obsession with bacon seriously you can literally
find bacon on everything even funny enough as an ice cream topping hasn't this mania been
going on long enough yes bacon is delicious and perfectly compliments your eggs and your toast in
the morning but do we really need to keep pushing the envelope there are some places where it just
doesn't belong it has its specific use like in a good old blt sandwich you know this would feel
great on one of my mom's lt sandwiches or is a meaty pizza topping but it should probably stop
there people put bacon on a pedestal it doesn't seem to want to come down from and by the way
bacon isn't exactly the best choice when it comes to your health either as humans we tend
to turn to the greasier foods simply because well it usually tastes better than a bland
salad you like some salad since i am not a rabbit no i do not but why is everyone always jumping at
the chance to block their arteries like that for the people who say bacon makes everything
better how far are you ready to go to back this up because truth be told the rest of the world
is still not over that fateful day when bacon toothpaste was invented yeah bacon toothpaste are
you still positive that bacon makes everything better cronut oh i'll tell you what they have
cronuts do you remember a couple of years ago when the streets of new york were overrun with
the hype of the cronut people went completely nuts over this croissant doughnut hybrid and would
literally spend hours in line just to get one for those who didn't have the time to spare a cronut
is basically a flaky crunchy pastry covered with a little bit of icing and apparently it's heavenly i
was one of the first people to try cronut and it was kind of a religious experience it was
unmissable the dominique ansel bakery the bakery responsible for this mania
surely couldn't complain about the good business these little frosted crowd-pleasing gems brought
their way however some critics have said that the cronuts basically tasted like churros
but with frosting oh you can eat churros those who didn't want to pay the rather high price and
waste their sunday afternoon just to get one were skeptical while the hysteria has died down a bit
over the last few years there's no denying that most people might have overreacted to
this invention and oversold it just a little bit red velvet yes red velvet when you want a good
looking cake that's nice for pictures the easy solution is to go with red velvet it's deep red
classy and topped with a dainty white cream cheese icing what's more elegant right but
if you're expecting a bold and powerful flavor you might just feel a little underwhelmed red
velvet anything cake cupcake pancakes whichever is sadly a tad overrated why is it red except
for the aesthetic there's nothing much going on with the flavor like really it's a regular cake
with extra food coloring so what about that little extra touch of class we all crave so much the
bakers know all about it and will sell these bad boys for a much higher price and they're actually
worse think of it as a chocolate cake but only in a different color would you really pay more
just so it matches your festive mood the problem is most people would answer yes to this question
which creates unnecessary hype for a very bland and ordinary cake is this a cake it's not just
a cake it's a pretty color that's it nothing more nothing less corn on the cob our corn on the cob
has become self-aware nothing says messy more than corn on the cob slippery fingers oily face
and teeth filled with little wayward corn kernels what's not to love right don't get us wrong corn
can be delicious and full of nutrients but why oh why does it have to be eaten right from the cob
everything's on a cob the whole planet's on the cob go go go you need to slobber it with butter
and salt for it to taste good and when you do you're stuck with butter fingers and a shiny face
you cannot eat corn on the cob and still look presentable it's an impossible task at least
if people cut it off the cob to eat it then maybe we could talk and reach a settlement the overall
effort needed to eat one of these is just simply not worth it for what it is again not saying that
corn is bad or overrated just the way of eating it and we're also not talking about the many
different other ways to prepare it no it's the dull butter salt combo that we have an issue with
get that corn out of my face oh and all the flossing that goes on afterwards avocado toast
it's just bad and boring like avocado toast the holy grail of sunday brunch and the star
on every single food enthusiasts list avocado toast is easily one of the most if not the most
popular recent breakfast additions food bloggers around the world have been praising the tasty dish
and have encouraged everyone to just give it a try how is it how does it taste it's awful finish it
soon enough the internet was overflowing with avocado toast but how good is it really it is
after all just smushed avocado on a piece of bread sure you can add some salt or a couple
of chili flakes to add some spice but other than that where's the thrill there's no actual distinct
flavor and more than that it's pricey as heck restaurants know the length people will go to
follow trends and they also know all about your avocado obsession they use that to their advantage
and sell it for ridiculously high prices the worst part it works overall if you still enjoy
your slice of toast and mushy green stuff by all means keep eating it but please don't shove
it down everybody's throat selling false hope that it's more than it is which is avocado on a
half-burned piece of bread tacos my name is teresa del taco and you are in grand danger soft shell or
a hard shell taco that is the question both are delicious cheap wildly versatile and impossible
to eat but yeah the hard shells do get a bonus point for the messiness that's for sure those
hard shells are out there trying to jab the roof of your mouth every chance they get they break
they fall apart and you're left picking up the fallen pieces on your plate with your bare hands
not a very sophisticated meal to say the least but enough about how hard they are to eat the issue
doesn't lie there it lies with the nutty obsession some people have with tacos they're everywhere
tacos have taken over the internet and even dating apps like tinder and hinge with people summarizing
their whole personality based around tacos fyi liking tacos is not a personality trait folks
they even tried to trademark a day of the week for them for crying out loud get a grip people
it's just a taco whether it's a taco truck or taco tuesdays tacos seem to have taken over our lives
obviously there's no taking away how great tacos are but do we have to make a big deal about them
all the time they're awesome okay now move on acai now if you'll excuse me i'm headed to the
acai bowl internet cafe acai is a super food that's been highly overrated over the years
just like many of the foods on this list it's everywhere from food blogs to high-end restaurants
these berries have taken over the world of breakfast smoothie bowls so it is a smoothie
no it's a smoothie a mood that you drink with each bowl looking better than the last it's easy
to see why people would enjoy this aesthetically pleasing treat acai bowls are basically just a
sick smoothie in a bowl oh and with a bunch of toppings obviously they don't taste bad per se
they can actually be quite tasty if paired with the right ingredients
and they are a superfood after all so you can get all the nutrients you could ever need we got you
an acai tree because the acai berry is a superfood and a super gift however when it comes to price
yikes for an overpriced bowl full of berries the looks the taste your instagram feed
kind of like with ice cream you like it because of the things you put on it not because of the actual
flavor of the fruit so before devoting your heart and soul to these little purple berries
think about what you really like about them is it the berry or the two pounds of coconut shavings
and bananas you put on it chocolate covered strawberries an ice sculpture shaped like
you covered in chocolate covered strawberries is there anything more romantic than a nice serving
of chocolate covered strawberries to end a cozy date night chocolate covered anything is far from
being the most attractive thing you can eat on a date yes it's delicious granted but have you
ever tried to eat one of these without getting chocolate all over your face strawberries seeds
in your teeth and a pool of cracked off chocolate on your lap does anyone know the chocolate slide
it's like mission impossible you always end up with a brand new shade of chocolate lipstick
around your mouth and have to pretend like nothing's wrong it's not that strawberries
and chocolate don't go well together because let's be honest they were made for each other
lose the chocolate fountain what are we supposed to dip our strawberries in
our nacho cheese fountain that's crazy it's just the way they're served that creates the issue
why not just melt some chocolate in a pot dip your strawberries in it and eat it right away
why wait until it's hardened and waiting to crack as soon as you take a bite there's nothing
actually wrong with chocolate-covered strawberries they're awesome but they're simply not as glorious
as everyone portrays them to be caramel apples throw a couple more apples in the caramel
again a food that in theory sounds heavenly but is actually a nightmare to eat caramel apples are
the snack of choice for most people at any kind of carnival state fair or even at home for movie
night you've probably also seen the trend where parents tricked their kids into thinking they made
them caramel apples but surprise it was actually an onion underneath all that sugary coating onion
what an evil prank originally invented as a way to get children to eat more fruit they have become a
pretty iconic treat and a very tasty delicacy the apples of course not the onions the only downside
they're pretty darn hard to eat i mean a little bit of wind and bam your hair is stuck to the
apple your nose your fingers it's everywhere oh no is my hair stuck yeah it feels like a yeah oh
yeah it's just so sticky and unpractical to eat but oh so good and if you ever have the bad luck
of having your stick break and now we're talking extra mess grab a taste of more great videos and
