That variety of mango isn't the best. It's mostly grown for supermarkets where shipping and shelf life concerns take a priority. Try a honey/Ataulfo mango if you can find them, it's so different and so much better that it might as well be a totally different fruit.

>>10934192
I agree, was mushy and just bleh.

>>10934212
I'll check it out, thanks anon

>>10934214
Every once in a while you land that juicy one and you fall for the trap again

Cheesecake

>>10934192
fancy cheese with rinds

>>10934348
What are you talking about, aged cheese is among the richest and deepest flavours commoners can enjoy on the regular

>>10934192
Mango Hi-chews taste like what my expectation for mangos are.

>>10934378
maybe my pallet is ruined, you decide. i am specifically thinking of an experience with a gruyere, which i found bland and overly salty. eating the rind was like deciding to eat the orange peel with the orange, unpleasant.

>>10934394
pallet in question

>>10934192
If you don't get totally erect while eating these you are a certified gaylord

Looks like fantasy mana, costs $6 a pop, tastes blander than >>10934257

>>10934212
Thanks for the advice pal.

>>10934212
I have to agree with this. I bought one and added it to my habanero fermented peppers and thought it would be the best batch and it's far worse than the carrot/tomato/garlic I made from the same plant. Really disappointing.

>>10934416
macarons blow HARD doesnt matter if you go buy Laduree ones they still suck huge dick

>>10934192
For me it's the McChicken.

>>10934241
I don't agree, every time I get duck at a gook restaurant, it's amazing. If you don't like the fat i could understand how you don't like it though.

>>10934192
Every time I go to the store during the summer, I check out the mangoes, but they are almost never ideal. That perfect mango is worth it, tho.

>>10934257
>>10934416
You guys have NO taste if you think Nilla Wafers are crap

>>10934409

>tfw gonna feast with 6 big mangoes tomorrow

you nags dont know shit. or your mangoes are shit.

>>10934212
What if i like to put chili powder on my mango? Do i eat these plain?

>>10934192
Mango is just a vehicle for Taijin lime seasoning.

diet yogurt always looks better than it really is.

there's always decadent looking fruit or desserts on the packaging. and i keep falling for that shit.

>>10935629
Some things just don't hold up well to "healthification" and dairy is definitely one of them.

>>10934212
There are way better varieties that never make it to the store. If you live in florida near mango growing region you probably already know about the wonders of these varieties. You can special order them (as long as you dont live in california). Sweet tart, orange sherbert, lemon zest, carrie are just a few of the amazing varieties.

>>10936225
I cant stand low fat sour cream, cream cheese, or yogurt but somehow skim milk tastes best for me

>>10936249
Okay, mutant.

I watch a lot of Anaheim Ducks games and they're always fucking advertising this shit. It looks like the goddamned best thing ever. There's only one in Vegas that I know of, and whenever I try to give it another chance, it's quite possibly the worst fast food I've ever had.

The same thing goes for Weinerschnitzel, but probably because I never feel like stepping up and getting anything good, and go for like their 5 for 5 deals or whatever when I actually really just want a good chili cheese dog.

Instead I eat 5 chili dogs and throw up in the morning like 7/10 times.

>>10934192
Pic related.

When i saw the commercial for the cake i thought it looked like the most delicious food ever. When i had it i was utterly disappointed.

>>10936277
Well fuck a duck. I had the exact same experience.

I tired these as a kid after seeing Harold & Kumar and they tasted like shit.

>>10936260
Anon, that looks disgusting

>>10936220
my nigga. there isnt a single more overrated fruit. the only thing leeches are good for is to pretend theyre eyeballs on halloween

>>10936225
I don't know what it is, in just a few years protein heavy dairy products have become really good tasting in Finland. Protein pudding tastes like an actual thing, except has like 1:10 ratio of calories to protein, as opposed to the usual 1:30 or 1:40.

are they ripe enough?
A fully ripened mango is probably the sweetest food I can think of

>>10936220
what is this?

Got all excited to try turkish delight when i was kid. Ended up spitting it out the first time i tried it. Fucking gross dude.

>>10936943
Viili

sweer potato

>>10937769
fucking mexican told my parents that soursop cures cancer, now they keep going to the spic side of town to buy them

>>10934192

Try it with salt and black pepper.
It's delicious.
At least i like it.

jello
it's like those "random objects that look delicious" things except edible, but the texture and consistency mess with me and I've never met a flavor of it I liked either

>>10934394
There's a lot of not great mass produced cheese that is sold as meme names like gruyere. Cheese is one of those things where you really get what you pay for.

T. Cheese maker

>>10936930
Probably the most disappointing food I've ever eaten

>>10936225
I think ultra-filtered milk is pretty good. Unfortunately the brand I get is also ultra-pasteurized and has lactase added to it so it's not nearly as good as it could be.

>>10936238
God honey mangos make me so hard. What are the best mangoes you’ve had?

>>10934192

>>10938060
Fucking disgusting, why do these shit gif recipes always involve cheese and cream and layers of cancerous death

Fucking Mac and Cheese. I don't know how they fucking do it but it looks so good and then when I take a spoonful I get bland mushy stuff with a ghost of a taste of cheese.

How the fuck is it done so poorly so often? Does cheese lose all its flavor when melted?

>>10936930
you'd expect some extreme sweetness and sour taste because it looks like a designed sweet rather than a fruit

it is just watery

>>10936277
bullshit
it is great
like what did you expect from icecream that is just layered with chocolate

>>10937714
boyscout balls

>>10938127
Dude its mac and cheese what were you expecting
I mean i agree these vidoes are sickening but the cheese does belong here at least

>>10938144
Things taste stronger when they're warmer. Cheese that's sat out of the fridge for half an hour will smell and taste stronger than straight from the package.
It's mostly people using elbow macaroni, over cooking it, and not knowing how to make a cheese sauce/and or not baking it with enough cheese and breadcrumbs to get browned on top

>>10934416
Yeah, fuck macarons. Terribly, overly sweet. Only had a lime one once that was kinda okay.
But they just look so tasty.

>>10938191
>cutting crust off of pansy-ass white bread
>mayo
>worst variety of ham
>measuring 5 tbsp of milk
>french toasting a melt
MY BRAIN IS FULL OF FUCK.

oh but its so much worse than just bland with mangos. Seems like about 1 out of 3 mangoes will go bad without changing on the outside. You grab it, cut it open and see this a web of black gunk thru the mango. Something to do with a tree fungus that gets into the fruit while its still attached.

buying mangos feels like buying a shitty lottery ticket where the big win is 5 dollars.

>>10938218
>>10938227
pls stop

And that's it.

Basically, every webm that I have extracted from /ck/ has been a let down in some way, but sure as fuck looked like a good idea.

itt: smokers belittling delicate flavors they'll never taste because they refuse to admit they lost the sense of taste years ago

>>10938246
You really tried all that nonsense?

>>10938247
what an autistic post

>>10936225
That's because you're left with lactose and milk-protein solution once you've skimmed away all the fat. Thickeners and sweeteners only go so far in salvaging bland, watery milk/yogurt

>>10938022
It has to be sweet tart. Depending on how ripe it is it can very tartbut as it ripens it gets sweeter and sweeter. The major flavor is a very comolex sweetness some describe it as cola syrup.

>>10938199
Not in that quantity.

gotta go with salmonberries

>>10934319
CheeseCake is great you pleb

>>10941056
Take that back you dirty whore.

>>10937776
you and your parents are retarded. sorry they have cancer tho.

veal.

i imagined it to be like an entire cow made of prime rib - tender, fatty, roasts nicely.

ordered veal parm at a "nice" italian place and got some pounded-to-shit thin slices of overcooked mystery meat breaded to hell and drenched in sauce.

didn't even finish it.

>>10936930
Came here to post this.

>>10938218
>gobs of ketchup slathered over everything

>>10936220
Tried one the other day the first time. Tastes like hand soap.

>>10942125
that little bastard looks smug af

>>10934192
>I dont know how to pick out mangos
Look for more orange than red, red is just sun burns.

t. A guy who picks out mangos everyday

>>10942457
Moar mango tips plz.

>>10938022
in don't think you can beat honey mangoes p

>>10938152
ugh. who came up with this abomination?

>>10942695
the flesh will give slightly when gently squeezed with your fingertips.

>>10938204
I've never had one but to me they look dry as fuck.

>>10936943
>1:10 ratio of calories to protein
protein is calories, though
do you mean fat to protein

>>10934192
dragon fruit

>>10938227
Love me some 'go 'za

>>10936943
Presumably they just throw whey protein powder in. For general health I'd say even a sip can make more claims to being healthy than a high protein dairy product though. Most non-vegans eat plenty of protein.

>>10942452
won't be so smug when I eat his fucking face

>>10934192
Eh, I like them.
>$0.50 dollars each
Damn near cleaned the bin out.
>>10934214
>mushy
The fuck mango did you eat?

>>10938246
...what the fuck is that even supposed to be?

>>10936439
TAKE IT BACK FAGGO

>>10942816
>$0.50 dollars
Would you please kill yourself

>>10942125
It probably wasn't really veal they served you.

>>10942849
okay, you write a 'c, cent mark without looking up how to

>>10942757
1g protein per 10 calories i.e. 40% of the calories are from protein.

>>10934192
This type of mango seems to be better for eating while still green. Tastes amazing with salt, lemon and a few drops of Worcestershire.

>>10938218
>mushy white bread that starts to tear off mid assembling
>ketchup as base sauce
>shitty, overcooked scrambled eggs
>muh bacon
one the worst ones I've seen by far

Anything I really liked as a kid, especially sugary shit like pic related

>>10934257
An essential part in good banana pudding, but yeah, they're pretty bland otherwise.

>>10942978
the fuck nibba

>>10934192
It's actually very hard to find a good mango unfortunately. But whenyou do anon, damn it's top tier

>>10934241
Duck breasts are good, everything else is terrible. I have an issue with goose, because literally every part of it tastes like a barn on a hot summer's day.
Also pic related, every time I crave apples and see a nice red (green ones like Granny Smith too, but Boskoop is still good in my opinion) one they taste like nothing and wax. The only ones with flavour are the ones you grow yourself.

>>10936220
Why do peeled lychees look like testicles?

>>10936930
I hate it
I hate it so much
Dragonfruit look so fucking tasty, like the other anons said either a very satisfying sour or sweet taste, but all you get is disappointment.

>>10938227
still better than a chicago deep dish imo

This shit right here, my mother loves it for some reason and I cannot understand why.
Fondant, no idea what it's called in english, leo.org says fudge, but fudge is soft/liquid chocolate in my experience and not soft/liquid sugar.
Whether it's for easter or christmas, there's these shitty things in relevant shapes like eggs and stars, and they taste like nothing but pure white sugar.

>>10944640
in english we call it fondant

>>10936277
Oh no you have retarded taste
:(((

>>10942880
More likely frozen patties. My mom used to buy them. They are alright but obviously not great.

>>10938218
someone took the time to record and post this video? Is it purposeful? Did the person know that everyone would think these are horrible "recipes".
>>10938191

>>10944602
>Red Apples
You're probably eating Red """"""""""""""""""Delicious"""""""""""""""""""""""". They are anything but.

Grab yourself a good old Gala or a juicy Ambrosia next time.

>>10936238
Miami anon here, I’m definitely going to look into them. I don’t know much about mangos because I’m allergic to them, but a great deal of my close family loves them. I’m thinking I can give them some honey mangos.

>>10934212
I work produce in a grocery store and we got a shipment of honey mangoes this morning. I've never had a mango before and decided to try one after this post and I wanted to thank you. It was delicious.

This isn't a fucking webm thread, it's a "Things you thought would be good but weren't" thread.

>>10936930
Obvious answer. Tastes like a bland potato.
