[Anonymous]

and what foods/drinks taste better than they actually look?

[Cubus]

Better than look: Monkfish

[Asker]

I've never had it hahaha

[Cubus]

I've had in once. Tastes a bit like chicken, rather than a fish meat.

[Asker]

ohh interesting... I grew up hating fish but now I'm okay with it but I'm also picky about the type of fish I eat so not sure if I'm tempted to try it hahaha

[Cubus]

I hate fish too. :) In general I used to be a poor eater. I think I'm starting to open up now.

[Asker]

that sounds great!😊😆

[Cubus]

But slowly. I still don't like many things, but step by step :)

[NathanDavis]

avocados and beer...

[Asker]

[NathanDavis]

they look tasty yes, but they aren't...

[Asker]

[NathanDavis]

[Asker]

[NathanDavis]

[Asker]

I’ve heard of people that make chocolate pudding with avocado as a base… it’s those super healthy people who don’t eat any junk or stuff… that stuff is nastyy

most artistic and some very expensive foods are far more about looks than taste fur sure.

sometimes, to make a beautiful dish, specially bread, dessert or something for a high end cuisine, you have to use ingredients that will look good, so they have to look fresh, or more rigid, so they will have a good presentation. sometimes you have to use ingredients that are made by man, so they may not be the best taste.

for example, some birthday cakes can be not so tasty, because for them to hold a beautiful shapes, they need a rigid batter, and a cream or frosting that is solid.

the best foods are home made, when you use fresh ingredients and are make the meal/dessert/bread from scratch, sometimes a dessert made by you, may not be so beautiful, but it may be worth 1 million kisses of love!!!

[Mellifluous_]

Dragon fruit all the way. They look so vibrant and exotic, but taste underwhelming. At least for me. Maybe I've just bad luck with them though.

[Asker]

I have never tried it, but it does look super yum!

[paradiseonearth93]

Blocks of cheese
like not cheese itself but a big block of cheese seems like it would taste good but then when I bite into it, it’s just too much

[Asker]

I hate cheese but I agree! It sure looks better than it tastes

[AviatorTom]

Those green breakfast energy drinks... look like something out of a Hollywood alien... actually taste pretty good.

[Asker]

lmfao… maybe I should try some and see for myself

[Anonymous]

Healthy versions of traditional dishes, cakes, snacks and so on.. made to look extra good to trick you! :D.. Ah, I love my fat and sugar :P.. rather want the real deal and eat a smaller portion than the healthier version.

[Asker]

SAME! lmfao... it is disgusting

[Dinklex3]

Mangonada. Absolutely disgusting 🤮

[MTC29]

Artichokes come to mind.

[Asker]

[dustybiker]

My fav with salty-lemon-butter-dip. More for me, please.

[Asker]

@dustybiker salty-lemon sounds tasty!

[dustybiker]

@blackcupcake It really is good.

[exitseven]

There have been lots of pastries that I have eaten that looked really good but after that first bite I wanted to spit it out.

[Cassie_1992]

Mushrooms, eggplant, squash.

[Asker]

I have never tried it either, a work colleague says the taste is very good, but it smells like death!
He visits Thailand/Philippines every year!

[Asker]

[Anonymous]

Food is gross. It makes people fat.

[Asker]

food is life, it’s delicious and it’s important

[Subarugirl]

Food is nourishment, a person's lack of discipline and self control makes them fat
