Krispy Kreme donuts. I've never understood why everyone goes crazy for them. I personally can't stand them.

[Sheree Bobbins]

Pumpkin pie
coffee

tiramasu (give me a canolli any day)
chocolate
Mickey bars
veal parmesean (has to be chicken)
cotton candy-I hate how it sticks to my teeth and feels all crunchy as soon as I put it in my mouth
caramel popcorn
french toast
waffles (has to be pancakes)

I can't stand McDonald's hamburgers... I'm not sure if they're even real meat!

OK, wedding cake can be incredibly good, but it's all in the frosting--rich buttercream!!! Anything made with lard or Crisco (sp?) just won't taste as good and will be TOO SWEET and ULTRA SUGARY
Anyway, wedding cake is one of my favorite foods

I love steak (filet mignon only)

I couldn't live without bagels--the staple of my diet

Dole Whips are unbelievably good--but some people in different areas have described them differently, so I think they are made differently by region

But I agree with Tiramisu, chocolate, lobster, Mickey bars, muffins, pumpkin pie, Mexican food, alcohol and coffee--I can't see waisting my money or calories on any of these things. Yes, I'm weird.

Can I join your club? I don't like Krispy Kremes either.

First - I need to ask lilpritch what part of MN are you from? The guy in your avatar looks really familiar to me.

2nd - over rated. Hmm. Fois Gras, caviar, pate', game meat (YUCK!), and oysters/clams.

I had a WONDERFUL wedding cake. It was 2 layers. 1 layer was white cake with fresh lemon creme and chunks of strawberries in it, and the other layer was rich chocolate with raspberries in the middle with creme. The frosting was fresh buttercream. It was EXCELLENT!!

 

[Breezy_Carol]

CHAMPAGNE. It's like drinking air.

 

[Beth76]

mashed potatoes and gravy

 

[MELSMICE]

I think Wine is over rated. I just can't acquire a taste for it & I've tried a few different brands. I guess I'm just not a drinker.

I agree with many of the other things listed such as coffee, pumpkin pie, steak.

But, I love Dole Whips, muffins (especially the tops) wedding cake w/ buttercream frosting, chocolate!!! & I LOVE Buffalo Chicken Wings. Of course that could be because I'm from Buffalo & have eaten them at the place they were originated in!

 

[ilovepcot]

Okay, so that I can state my opinion on them, where on earth do I find the infamous DOLE WHIP??? And when I find one, do you think I'll REALLY be "dole whipped" as the Tag Fairy indicates???

Most overrated in my book:

Bangers and Mash at Rose and Crown

Dole Whips

Krispy Kreme Donuts

Mickey Bars

Most UNDERrated

Monte Cristo Sandwich at Blue Bayou in Disneyland YUM!

Chicken Noodle Soup at Beaches and Cream

Mickey Pretzels in the bag...I end up bringing bags of these home they are that good!

I love chocolate and bananas, but didn't care for the chocolate covered frozen banana at WDW this year.

 

[swankybeth]

Overrated:

Lobster
Foie Gras
The meatloaf at 50's PrimeTime Cafe-BIG yucko!
Wine-not that I necessarily don't like it, just don't know what all the fuss is about

Can I join too? I ate my first KK a few weeks ago. It was all grease, air and sugar. Yuck!

Besides, donuts give me heartburn.

jrydberg, you need to visit my neck of the woods. You'd be in pizza heaven!

And who said wine and pasta was overrated?!?!?

 

[GoofyPrincess]

How about Pop Tarts?

My kids (and everyone else I know) loves them. Heck, I even take them to WDW for our breakfast, but I think they're dry and flavorless.
