Food Trends you are sick of seeing

[CrazyGiraffeLady]

I used to love 5 guys before I was diagnosed with coeliac disease and had to go gluten free!

I end up making my own these days… mince with just salt & pepper added and made into thin patties. I then dry fry them in a pan and add cheese slices at the end before putting them on the bun & adding the toppings. They then get wrapped in tin foil & placed into the oven for a few mins to heat them & melt the cheese!

totally amazing!

Omg I’m going to try this!

Baking a creme egg into a cookie View attachment 1179369

That's bordering on being a whole ass cake wtf, this XXL cookies are on my pet peeve list.

What the FUCK is this

I feel like the entire Middle Eastern population is owed an apology, that's grim

Those snack bags people on SW make for themselves, quite often they'll contain like 4 babybel and 2 SW bars for their HEX A/B followed by 2 bags of crisps, 2 chocolate bars and a hot chocolate. Just because that's what SW says you can have in a day doesn't mean you HAVE to eat all that shit in one go.

I really need to look into the SW method, like how the fuck they eat like 5kg of sugar and lose 50 kg in 2 days? All of their snacks are so sickly sweet too

Fake meat made out of flour and water. Please, if you’re a Vegan/Vegetarian just eat vegetables and be done with. Stop finding ways to imitate the foods you don’t like to eat.

Seitan is a great alternative to tofu if you're allergic to soy though! The trend of making it yourself out of flour and water is stupid though because you can just buy seitan from the shop (or buy vital wheat gluten and not waste a load of flour)

Nutella
Biscoffi
Cakes in jars
Caterpillar cake - sickly and dry
Jackfruit - should only be served in prisons

Custard yogurt toast. Can we just go back to regular french toast please?

I feel like this is a tiktok thing I've seen mentioned on instagram? Tiktok seems to be birthing a lot of these new "food trends" - like that wrap everyone was doing where you put different food in all 4 corners.

Well hopefully if we can include "Milk" here, I am so sick of all these different kinds of trendy milk now, seems there is a new one every week.
I totally understand the one's that are needed for dietary/medical needs of course, but seriously some of these kinds of milk around now are getting silly.

What are some of the weirder ones? I feel like its been the same milks for a while now; almond, oat, soy, coconut, and then the standard cows milk?

Smashed burgers ARE really good though. The trend for jumbo burgers with huge thick patties and loads of toppings was ridiculous, I'm loving these thin, crisped patty burgers with simple toppings being the trend.

I agree! I love a “smashed” burger because I can actually get it into my gob without disclocating my jaw!
They are technically just mince with salt & pepper made into a thin burger patty, but a proper burger should really just be mince, salt & pepper anyway! No need for all the additives & shite!

5 Guys burgers are technically smashed!

All the flavored coffee creamers. I do not need my coffee to taste like Fruity Pebbles or Reese Pieces.

Where do you find those. I love them but can't get them in the uk

Bugger, you're in the US aren't you.

What is it, a platter of snacks without wrappers?

Y E S
Absolutely vile imo

 

[StrawberryCream]

Yes! Did you see the one where they’ve put the hot coffee directly INTO the mini egg packet?! It’s not obvious if it’s a joke or not (if it is a joke I don’t get it)
What a waste of delicious mini eggs and coffee

Yeah I seen that one too, probably not a joke as they done it with a packet of chocolate buttons before a glass coffee mug would make more sense so you can actually see it

 

[Dipdab]

Agree with the feta pasta thing - I’m not a health freak but eating an entire block of salty fatty cheese is disgusting.

 

[Purrrrrrr]

Where do you find those. I love them but can't get them in the uk


Bugger, you're in the US aren't you.

You can get them online. Also, some coffee shops will sell you a bottle, I've not asked but been told that.

 

[watermelon sugar]

What the FUCK is this

omg I’d try that

 

[Warpaint]

Wouldn't that just be ... mince? Which I hated as a child back in the 60s/70s

Yeah that's the image I had in my head when I first saw the term on a menu. Which is why I avoided it.

 

[BattleAxing]

Source please.

There are plenty of sources. Find them. The Iowa dairy farmer for example debunks everything about the aggressive plant based movement.

Mochi is delicious but Little Moons are so unsatisfying

 

[Peartree]

I have a sweet tooth, but saw something on Instagram once that made me feel ill!
It was a bowl of Coco Pops, Golden Nuggets and Krave cereal mixed together with chocolate milk instead of normal, and 2 Kinder Hungry Hippos on top! The person also had some sweets on the side. It just looked like it's make you throw up after eating it. Too excessive.

"Freakshakes" also look really sickly, especially the ones with doughnuts through the straws.

round here there’s a trend to do hot choc like this, I’m not a health freak but there’s probably more calories / sugar in one of them than I eat all day
