We all have at least one friend
who follows all the trends today we're going to talk about all the foods these
people love secretly we all love them too
but we're too shy to admit that we all sometimes follow trends blindly when we
should stop and think if we actually like it with that in mind here are 10
popular foods that are overrated I want the double cheeseburger but I'm gonna go
healthy and get the fish and chips pumpkin spice do you remember when the
pumpkin spice craze started a few years ago it was nice to see that there was
something flavoured with the spice that you associate with not just Halloween
but all of the fall season then out of nowhere everything began to be taken
over with pumpkin spice person survives solely on pumpkin spice products the
oddest thing is that it hit store shelves
long before a chill hit the air you're still sweating and drinking lemonade out
on the back porch when the pumpkin spice flavoring is everywhere and for all to
see every aisle you go in the store seems to have pumpkin spice flavored
stuff there's enough coffee made pumpkin spice flavor for one more cup rock paper
scissors you can't even enter the alcohol and beer aisle or visit your
favorite coffee place without being hit right in the face with pumpkin spice
products you might love pumpkin spice but by the time autumn is over you're
going to hate it pumpkin spice lattes the coffee that tastes like a candle you
will thank your lucky stars once the snow starts to fly and all the pumpkin
spice products are retired until next year guacamole guacamole is good as a
condiment on many things it's also good to dip corn chips in what ruins
guacamole for most isn't anything with the avocado paste itself no that stuff
is good the thing that sucks about guacamole is the people who call it guac
with the guac from my chip hat yes you know who you are you don't ask
for guacamole and you don't call it that when you talk about it with friends
don't you realize that you're making everyone not want to savor the flavor of
guacamole how can we get back to civilization from here the way we do it
is by starting to call it guacamole it's simple really
try your best not to call it guac seriously give it a try it's not that
hard just think of all the people who you'll be helping no one wants to hear
you say guac throughout the day go ahead try it
say guacamole just one time while watching this do you want to do the
world a favor if so then you'll stop calling it guac low and no calorie
carbonated beverages Diet Coke are you my mom yes we're talking about
soda here who doesn't love a cold sweet and bubbly drink these sugary drinks can
be the perfect snack in themselves and they pair great with a lot of different
foods after all nothing goes together better with pizza than a fizzy drink so
what's the big deal about diet soda well it's how much people drink it rarely
does anyone have one diet soda per day tween the two of us you're probably skip
the diet cokes some people might drain an entire
12-pack of the stuff the logic here is that they think since the diet Pop has
no calories that they can drink an unlimited amount first off large doses
of sugar substitute aren't good for anyone second if you're drinking
something with caffeine you're getting a jolt from it drinking anything diet in
moderation is key to being able to do it and stay healthy
here's my new zero I am thirsty cupcakes take a bite
it's hard to rant on something as delicious as cake but cupcakes are a
little different do you remember a few years ago when
everyone went crazy over cupcakes it had to make you think you were back at a
grade school bake sale good caramel number six one of the worst
things about cupcakes is the price while they seem to be cheap you actually end
up paying a whole lot more for them at the store than you would for an entire
cake what's up with that also it's so much more work to make cupcakes at home
though it sure is fun peeling the cupcake away from its cute little
wrapper you don't need to admit that you eat all the crumbs that stick to the
cupcake paper you don't need to admit it because everyone does it just as
everyone licks the mixing spoon and goopes up all that cake batter mix it's
clash of the cupcakes rice cakes have you ever been offered a rice cake by
someone who thought they were the best snack on planet earth did it come in a
particular flavor you know like sour cream and onion or
barbeque there seemed to be all kinds of flavors of these rice cakes you don't
know what those flavors are and most of the world doesn't either because usually
most people don't want to go anywhere near those things you want a snack not
something that resembles styrofoam let's now turn our attention to the taste of
rice cakes or the lack thereof the rice cake itself has almost no
flavor at all there is usually some dusting of powder on it to remind you
that you're eating food then there's the texture of the rice cake we were
probably generous to call the texture of rice cakes like styrofoam it's like
you're eating compressed packaging peanuts you try your hardest to find
some flavor in each bite of the rice cake the hardest part is trying to act
as if you enjoyed it you want to be respectful and let the person know that
you're thankful they gave you a rice cake however you don't want to appear to
enjoy it so much that ask if you'd like another these are a
fundamental part of my lunchtime regime and mine to seafood
what's the freshest they're all fresh how about the halibut is it gamey
Jamie seafood is one of those things that people seem to go crazy over have
you ever looked at what you're eating that thing on your plate looks like it
came from outer space the most normal-looking thing that comes out of
the sea is fish they aren't exactly the most appealing and looking creatures on
the earth if you ever need to have an instant panic attack look at the teeth
on a piranha if the teeth on those little suckers don't scare the daylights
out of you then nothing will luckily not all fish are eaten with the head still
on who gets to decide which fish is served with the head on it
that's weird in itself there aren't many foods that you eat where the entire
animal is served from head to tail lobsters crabs and other bottom-dwellers
look like something straight out of a sci-fi horror movie imagine waking up
with shellfish covering your entire body if you ever found yourself eyeball to
eyeball with a lobster you wouldn't find yourself trying to find a bucket of
melted butter this one yeah that's my guy doesn't it tell you something when a
food item needs to be dunked into a lot of butter to be edible it's a fishy it's
fish you know what I mean smoothies juice drink on paper smoothies
sound like a great idea who doesn't love the idea of gulping down a delicious
creamy drink what's so bad about smoothies well nothing really there's
nothing wrong with smoothies if you fully understand what you're drinking
the real problem is when you think they're healthier than a milkshake and
they aren't how many people stack the sugar and fat in smoothies to make them
easier to go down with that in mind smoothies aren't healthier than a
milkshake mother Oreo smoothie now you may find that a milkshake from your
favorite fast-food joint is healthier than the smoothie your neighbor is
pounding down what about those smoothies people at the gym drink it's true there
are many smooth these that are good for you no one is
going to deny that a smoothie made right is healthy sure you can go to your local
gym and order up a frothy beverage after a hearty workout you can also make
smoothies at home with fruit low-fat milk and ice cubes though it seems
everyone who starts drinking smoothies always ends up going down the unhealthy
route maybe tired of being with you our
agency Rocca sriracha it seems that these days there are not enough things
to put sriracha on it's hard to believe that sriracha is just a hot sauce yes
that's all it is sure it's a mighty tasty hot sauce no one is going to argue
that sriracha isn't some of the best hot sauce out there but it's not like hot
sauce has never existed you'd think that all the new sriracha converts recently
learned something new hot sauce has been around since hot
peppers and chilies existed it's known worldwide and people eat it every day of
the week that's what makes sriracha so interesting it's like the entire world
just woke up one day to learn that hot sauce was a thing what do you put
sriracha on now is the time to be honest and admit that you put it on some
strange things people used to think it was weird to put hot sauce on scrambled
eggs lovers of sriracha are going way beyond putting it on their eggs it's not
unheard of for people to put it on their popcorn it's even been mentioned that
some like to put sriracha on their ice cream quinoa what's this stuff that
looks like sand it's dope I don't eat foods that sound like karate words no
one out there is quite sure how to pronounce quinoa properly if you asked
ten different people they'd all have a different
pronunciation no matter how you say quinoa it's been on the lips of many
people for quite a while oddly enough people shouldn't be so
enthralled with quinoa considering all the other low carb diets and foods there
are we might not be saying quinoa properly we're not really sure how to
cook it but we are all eating it we're lining up so much that the origins of
where it comes from are in short supply of it the locals who grow it south of
the border can't afford it these days we've stolen it right from their hands I
brought quinoa from home that's how high the prices of quinoa have skyrocketed
what's the big deal about quinoa it has more protein than typical high carb
foods sure but it also has way less flavor if you're into eating stuff that
tastes like nothing then put quinoa on your grocery list next to the rice cakes
seriously this stuff has little to no taste at all it has protein and plenty
of it though tell yourself that when you're eating a
bowl of the tasteless stuff while trying to convince yourself that it's worth the
efforts and economic decline thank you kale fill your child-sized kale salad
will arrive at 7:37 p.m. what kind of fun is this you knew the kale craze was
over-the-top when people were baking cakes with the stuff in it there's
nothing wrong with wanting to eat a healthy green leafy vegetable it's
something everyone should try to do more of however people pushed kale way over
the top and unfortunately the trend isn't done
growing yet how would you like to wash down your kale chips with some kale soda
yes kale soda is a thing too there's nothing wrong with enjoying kale you
might as well add some to your favorite smoothie mix why not add a few shots of
sriracha while you're at it Oh kidding aside any more healthy
vegetables to your diet isn't a bad thing though you probably should balance
things out a bit if you're eating kale like a cow does grass then you've got a
problem diversity is a good thing unless you're
a kale farmer if you are then you're probably seeing plenty of green while
your fields of greens are being depleted in record time this holiday season is
about friends family joy and courage stick around
