Question of the Day, Friday, April 2

Good morning!

Name a dessert that you absolutely despise.

For me, it's cheesecake. I've gotten better with it; I can actually swallow it without wanting to . But I really, really hate the stuff.
What's your not-so-decadent dessert?

 

[Katie M]

Anything with pieces of fruit, since I have texture issues. No apple or blueberry pie for me.

 

[di and bob]

I'm sorry, I don't think there is ANYTHING I actually despise. Ask me when I am done with my diet!!

 

[Mia6]

Raisin cookies

 

[NY cat man]

Spice cake- especially when it has that icky sweet frosting on it.

 

[artiemom]

Pecan pie!! too sweet... all I can think of is a cup of sugar in each forkful!

 

[Lari]

I don't like pineapples or coconuts, so desserts like pineapple upside down cake and coconut cream pie.

 

[verna davies]

Cheesecake, I find it too heavy.

That. . .stuff old ladies make for church picnics. Idk what it's called. Cool Whip, green Jello, cottage cheese, nuts. No thanks!

I'm not sure, but I think it's called 'ambrosia'.

Sounds similar to what "the old ladies" make around here. We call it "ambrosia". coolwhip, sour cream, jello, marshmallows, fruit and coconut. Bleh!

 

[Willowy]

Yeah that's probably it. I could stand it with just the other ingredients, but that's an egregious misuse of cottage cheese! The texture. . .

 

[susanm9006]

I would say Pecan Pie. Sort of just sugar goo in a pie crust.

 

[rubysmama]

Gingerbread and molasses cookies.
Not sure if it's the molasses or spices, or the combination of both, but I do not like the flavour.

"Tarte au sucre" (sugar pie). It was a staple in my family, but I never tried it as a kid. When my grandmother passed away, it was never made anymore and my family members would always talk about how much they loved tarte au sucre. So when I got older and as "the new baker" in the family, I got my great grandmas recipe (the one my grandma also used), and started making them for Christmas. Everyone loved them! Then one year, I finally tried a piece (I don't usually eat dessert at Christmas as I'm usually always too full), and EWE! I don't know what is wrong with my family! LOL!!!

 

[strider rose]

anything with raisins in it ...i dont like the taste or texture of the raisins at all

 

[game misconduct]

pumpkin pie color/texture just reminds me of baby,kitten or puppy poop

 

[Talien]

There's more that I don't like than what I like, but any dessert with sour cream or cottage cheese in it is at the top of the "why are you trying to feed me this crap?" list.

 

[muffy]

I never had Ambrosia but that would be my choice. I have a strong dislike for jello, marshmallows, canned fruit, cool whip and coconut.

As a child I loathed rice pudding - probably because it was either burnt, the rice was not cooked or just too liquid. Today, I cook rice pudding whenever I have milk left over and my grownup grandsons love it.
But, far worse than rice pudding, was tapioca pudding. It tasted like eating wallpaper paste!
Most desserts are fine but the portions are far too large. - so only acceptable if there's someone to share it with.
