Following on from what people has got for dinner what in your opinion is the most overrated food or for the length of time it takes to prepare or cook just isn’t worth it?
For me it’s pizza. Really just not a fan |

"Roast turkey,be it Xmas or any other time,can't stand the stuff.Give me chicken instead "
Agree with turkey being rubbish, but at Christmas you have to go for goose. It's fantastically tasty, and you'll get enough fat out of it to make wonderfully crispy roasties for the whole of the next year. |

You will with a brined turkey. People only hate turkey as it was overcooked and not prepped properly.

You have to add so much to the bun to make them taste anyway interesting."
I agree, and I hate this trend of stacking them fucking huge so it looks instagrammable instead of being able to eat without unhinging your fucking jaw  |

Trifle.
Take something nice (jelly) cover it with something that will still be identifiable in me 3 years after I die and decompose (custard) then top this weird hell with tasteless mush like eating a liquified duvet.

Don't forget taking something nice (sponge fingers), something else nice (sherry), and another thing nice (cream), and then squishing them all together into a hideous sludge. |

"Baked fucking potatoes. Zero imagination. Wait while I bake a POTATO, then fill it with something inspiring like tuna. "
Agree. Hungry? Cook a baked potato!
Three fucking years later you’ve eaten your dog, your left arm, and had a sex change cod your so so hungry and bored. Potato cooked but it’s a two hand job to eat it, you’re choking on dog collar and on a low carb diet anyway so you bin it.
Madness. |

steak - it’s just meat cooked , with the most unimaginatively dull sides.
Almost all take away food, particularly Indian - paying a premium for an unskilled cook to make you a shit meal with shit ingredients |

I haven’t had it because I think biscoff is bang average. It’s not bad, it’s just not as good as people make out. |

It's a secret. I've found that if it's cooked in front of you, you're actually able to enjoy it
