A neighbor who has been ill, but is recovering, received an arrangement of flowers from her son. I thought that they were lovely, but she was less impressed because there were no roses which are her favorite flower. The arrangement was not inexpensive nor was it small and he had carefully chosen it. Her comment reminded me of how much I dislike roses. Always have. Thorns, weird scent, petals fall all over the place, and some are just downright pitiful. As for rosewater in personal care products or food, don't even get me started. 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

What is something that is very popular with most people that you dislike?

If it’s trendy; I probably dont like it. :crazy:

I’m not a big ice cream fan. I like certain flavors well enough; but I’d rather have something else sweet 99% of the time.

(and I agree about rose water stuff. Except in my toner where the scent doesn’t lingee.)

Just a couple off the top of my head are cottage cheese and tartar sauce, the smell, texture and appearance of both make my stomach turn.

Panera Bread, I think now it is losing favor with a lot of people but it used to be very popular. Someone going somewhere to pick up lunch would be going to Panera Bread. It seemed like everyone thought it was the greatest. I never got what everyone thought was so great. I thought it was highly overrated.

Electric cars are very popular now but no way would I consider getting one. Aside from the expensive price I'd much rather go to a gas station which takes 5 minutes to fill up my tank and not have to rely on finding a charging station to get to my destination.
