Things that are impossibly overrated
Things that are impossibly overrated
I will start:
Nutella - would rather have either chocolate or good peanut butter, or both. Expensive, overrated, and basically a sugar bomb masquerading as a gourmet item

Re: Things that are impossibly overrated
The strength of my list will be its diversity. Here's a start:
Pumpkin Pie
Cocaine
Fight Club (good movie, but it's become this obnoxiously over-referenced bro bible)
Leather Jackets

Good lord, this! So many delicious fruits, and people make pie out of something that is practically inedible and has to be spiced and manipulated so much to be palatable. I feel like you may as well spend your time making pie out of poison ivy or dog shit.Headhunter wrote:The strength of my list will be its diversity. Here's a start:

Re: Things that are impossibly overrated
I also can't stand coconut, no allergies. Is that overrated though? If anything it seems to be extremely divisive.

Re: Things that are impossibly overrated
Mine is similar. I probably do love bacon as much as the general population, but the trend of people putting bacon on everything and pretending it works is annoying.
