Foods and Drinks You Like That No One Else Does

[Señora Airi]

More unpopular with just my family and friends but I’m the only one in that group who likes ginger ale/ginger beer. Get told all the time it’s “an old man’s soda”

It's weird; I like the flavor, but if I'm around people and I'm drinking it, people think my stomach's upset. Do they really only drink it if they're sick?

In the states at least it is stereotyped (along with chicken noodle soup) as being a comfort food for people getting over the flu. I like the taste also but I get teased as being an old man for drinking it rather than people thinking I’m sick. It’s just weird to me people get so hung up over fucking ginger ale of all things.

Ballast Point's Habenero Sculpin with good street tacos.

Dr. Pepper. I like it,nobody else save for my father once in a blue moon does,my mother comparing the taste to medicine.On another note they seem to enjoy Coca-Cola and I'm not.really a big fan of caramel copper flavored battery acid.

Olives - green/black I pretty much love them all.

Lengua (beef tongue) street tacos are dope.

Pickled eggs - the quail eggs at Buc-ee's are my crack and I buy some whenever I’m traveling and going past one.

pretzels and hummus
beef jerky

I like black licorice. Everyone else I know thinks it tastes nasty and will only get shit like Red Vines

Unironically, if you wanna get people to try it, tell them to salt it lightly.

I used to love the Jamaican ginger beer when I was a kid. Not sure if I'd want it now although I drink other hot ginger beverages.
I don't think it's that odd to like it as a kid because kids would chew Cry Baby bubble gum and candy like it was nothing. Extreme sour is just another extreme.

I mix canned chili (with beans) into my valveeta mac and cheese shells and add a can of tuna and pickled onions. It's like a sloppy cheesy stinky deli salad. It tastes great and takes 5 minutes to prepare.

 

[Slaughtered Vomit Doll]

Kofola. It will always be Kofola for me. I can't get it readily anymore and I am (still) very upset about it!

Capers. They're superior to pickles and relish for some purposes, but nobody I know buys them.

I recently found out surströmming goes really kickass with pickled okra, rice and peas, and a tortilla. I think others would agree with my opinion if they tried it/had the money to import authentic surströmming.

The first time I had balut I thought it was fucking awesome. It tasted like tender, delicious duck meat in a warm, yolky sauce. I might have been drunk or high. Further attempts at enjoying it have been a lot more mundane.

I have always wanted to try it but I have never managed to find it.

i have a silly story. when i was a kid (~12) i used to work with horses, one time we were allowed to give them black licorice as a treat, which i can tolerate (i wouldn't go out of the way to buy it).
the horses did not want the black licorice. so i ate it instead

i'm apparently the only one who likes red delicious apples

For me its Diet Dr. Pepper.

Pet peeve is restaurants with regular dr. Pepper but no diet.

I like kofola personally but no one literally knows what is that

Hello fellow capers lover!

Great addition to bagels and surprisingly, to pasta. If you make a lemon pasta or a light white wine sauce, toss some capers in at the end, very tasty.

There must be other people out there that like this, but I've never met any. And every bartender ever gives me shit about it.
