I agree with this. Tried one time will never try again.

I tried an Aztec Dark Chocolate ice cream once. I love dark chocolate and love ice cream even more. This stuff was infused with jalapeño and was tossed after one bite. Also tried a beer ice cream. I like beer and I like ice cream, but this was nasty.

Tobasco ice cream is disgusting.

A pizza place in Athens (didn't last long) had a mushroom and arugula pizza that sounded good on the menu. I like pizza. I like mushrooms. I like arugula. It was one of the worst pizzas I ever ate, I forced myself to finish as least one slice then threw it in the garbage.

Yeah. I don’t get it. If I wanted my whiskey drink to taste like smoke (aka like shite), I’d drink peated scotch.

This may get some down votes, but here goes: blackened everything.
It's not that I don't appreciate a well done blackened slab of fish now and then, but it seems to be a common option now to blacken everything these days. You end up with a lot of heavy seasoning that overwhelms the flavor of the meat or fish or shrimp.

Turkey.
Hailed as the centerpiece of the best meal of the year.....
Then no one eats it for the rest of the year.

Scrapple is amazing if it hits all the right points (right amount of cornmeal, perfect frying job, etc) but like.. its easier for the planets to align.
My answer is anything from some West Coast TikTok that is a faceless pair of hands in black nitrile gloves, especially if it involves some glass stein dipped in something.
My ACTUAL answer is candy apples.

My wife would shoot you for such heresy.
I do admit that I prefer the leftovers, the turkey noodle soup and turkey salad sandwiches to the original roast turkey, but it's all good. Enjoying some Tortilla soup (made with turkey, not chicken) now.

I agree with the rest of your statement but these are fighting words.

I don't even eat it on Thanksgiving, it's not worth it. We do ham and other better options and leave the turkey to people who like subpar foods.

I had a chocolate and Guinness ice cream one time in Austin and it was one of the best ice creams I've ever had, but chocolate and Guinness go beautifully together.

That's some bs Paul Prudhomme came up with and it's his most overrated dish, but probably the most famous.
Turducken
Wrapped in a bacon braid, it's outstanding.

Stuffed bell peppers have never lived up to the hype. You can put anything in there, but at the end of the day, you're eating a shite ton of bell pepper.
You could just maybe, idk, not eat the bell peppers.
