For fun....What are some of your WDW food items that you love (but you know many others seem to dislike) or that you are just "meh" about (that you know many others love). I will get things started.

Love: Turkey Leg - yes, it is gross to eat and I hate being near others who are eating them but it is magically delicious

Meh: Dole whip - just ok but later it is heart burn city
 
Love: Roast Lamb Meshoui at Epcot's Marrakesh - fall off the bone tender. Some think the shank is too small & don't like the seasonings & sides (I love everything!)

Meh: Dole whip - just ok (as above). I don't get why people get so excited about it :duck:
 
Well, I'm going to chip in to say I love the crab cakes at Flying Fish. When I say that, I always have to throw in a disclaimer that I'm from far inland so don't know anything about "real" crab cakes. But, man, I all but licked the plate clean this year!

Flip side, I refuse to even try the famous School Bread because I don't like anything involving coconut. And not a mushroom fan, so I really didn't care for the mushroom risotto at Le Cellier - I really should have swapped out for some variety of potato.
 

My mehs are Zebra Domes, Funnel Cakes (we get them so often at our local six flags they're just not a big deal), and mickey ice cream bars.

Loves: Lefou's Brew (I've had so many people tell me it's disgustingly sweet but I love it) annnnd Chef Mickey's/Crystal Palace. The whole place. For dinner. They both to be hugely unpopular here for the dinner crowd.
 
Love that other people generally don't: hmm, been wracking my brain and Chef Mickeys breakfast is the only one I can come up with. OH, I have one: Beverly! I love Beverly! :) Unibroue beer cart in Canada, mostly because it isn't well known, not that it is unloved. I love lots of things that are beloved by others: Cronut, jalapeño cheese pretzel, Boma, jungle juice slushie...I could go on. :)

Meh but other people love: 'Ohana and Cape May breakfast, zebra domes, Grey Goose slushie, Dole Whip, Butterfinger cupcake...
 
I have never had a Mickey Bar (ice cream and chocolate-big deal), Dole Whip (plan to try this one in Nov) or turkey leg (looks disgusting).

Love all buffets for the endless choices and love School Bread, love Zebra Domes, love Yorkshire Co. Fish Shoppe.
 
I find Zebra Domes dry, Tonga Toasts sickly sweet, and Turkey Legs gagingly smelly but I love Disney's salty, buttery Popcorn, Casey's Corn Dog Bites dipped in mustard, salty Beer Cheese Soup from LC and I'd lay down and die for the Creme Brulee from the Boulangerie/Patisserie in France!

PS: I used to love School Bread but the last 2 I had were stale, so I'm done!

Honorable mention: The Egg Roll from the cart outside of China is awesome!
 
Love: zebra domes, pork shank, frozen lemonade, frozen strawberry oolong tea, ice cream cookie sandwich, carrot cake cookie

meh: lefse (more than meh...BLEH!), cronut, turkey leg
 
Love: All Star Sports Food Court. Had the best Turkey dinner...moist flavorful...less than 8 dollars. What's not to love. Dole Whip, from reading this thread I guess not everyone is a fan. Good shorter lines for me.::yes::

Meh: School Bread...coconut yuch. The "Grey Stuff" is not delicious. And Starbucks Coffee I wouldn't cross the street from my house to get some even if it was free. Having to wait until after rope drop and walk all the way across the park to get a Cinnamon roll. I still can't believe Disney sold out to the swill factory and the world lost the Main Street Bakery.
 
Love ... Pizza Planet and Chef Mickey's ::yes::

Meh ... School Bread o_O

Hate ... Turkey Leg :crazy2: (but this would be my oldest DD's 'Love')
 
Love - Bavarian Cheesecake at the Biergarten

Meh - garden grill in epcot. And by meh I mean yuck.
 
LOVE: Caramel Corn and caramel shortbread from Karamell-Küche at EPCOT in Germany, Ohana, Yorkshire Fish n Chips, Cronut, red velvet cheesecake cupcake at Starring Rolls, Wolfgang Puck Express, Peanut Butter and Jelly Shake at 50's PT.

Meh: dole whip (I can take it or leave it), Zebra domes.

Wouldn't waste my money: Sunshine Seasons, Starbucks

It is a very thin potato-based bread found at the Norwegian bakery. Not sure how it is served there (seems a risk, TBH) but, when I lived in Norway, I subsisted on it slathered in butter and sprinkled with sugar and it was utterly delicious. :)

I've had the lefse 2x at the bakery. First time was wonderful. Second time, not so much. Depends on whose rolling them that day. They are great when rolled very tight. Not so great when sloppily rolled (almost folded). Then they taste doughy & blah. Check them out in the case the next time you go. If made well, they are incredibly tasty & a great value.
 
Love: Ohana dinner - all of it, shawarma in Morocco, the jalapeno pretzels, the cheesecake and cheese soup at Biergarten..

Not a fan: zebra domes, cream cheese pretzels, fudge, carrot cake cookie.

Never had a turkey leg or Disney popcorn.
 
Love: turkey legs and pineapple dole whip float

Meh: jalapeño pretzel, the mushroom filet, and ETA POFQ beignets
