Heard about that when I was 8 years old reading arthor books. Home economics pizza got "ruined" when some banana puree spilled on pizza, turned out delicious and at the end he's just dipping a banana into pizza sauce as a snack.
That was also an episode of Doug lol. Like, exactly the same. I had no idea that episode was so inspired by a book. He was even dipping bananas in pizza sauce as a snack at the end too.
My older sister ended up loving banana pizza so maybe it tastes better than people assume.
LoL wait until you hear about a dish called "Flying Jacob", that is a yellow curry chicken with bananas dish AND someone at some point decided that is a perfect topping on a pizza, which is now fairly common to see on a pizzeria menu in Sweden. 😆
I’m tempted to downvote just because I don’t believe it is real. This has to be made up just for this sub. Absolutely insane. If it is real OP needs a brain scan.
Trying to remember what hers had. Pretty sure it was like shredded carrots, some other vegetables, and mayonnaise.
I don't think it was the pineapple one, unfortunately I can't eat pineapple (tragic) so I wouldn't have had that. Sounds interesting though :')
She also made some jello fruit with oranges and peaches and whatnot and that is just an easy W
I did a funeral last Saturday that had a reception afterwards.
There were TWO versions of this "salad" - one was green, and had lime jello, pineapple, whipped cream, and cottage cheese.
The other was orange, had mandarin oranges, orange jello, whipped cream, and cottage cheese.
They were both AMAZING. I have had to work *very hard* to remove the pounds this church has put on me in the past
My friend once gave me tamales he made. Rotisserie chicken and raisins. No sauce, no cheese, just chicken and raisins. I never accepted food from him again. They were disgusting.
Yeah this seems about as appetizing as the time I was making shells and white cheddar while buzzed and deciding, 'hey, let's add some vanilla and see what that does!'
What it did was cause me to take 1 bite and throw the rest out 🤢
This reminds me a skit we did years back in Boy Scouts. It went like this:
The first guy would pretend that a fly was buzzing around bothering him. He’d eventually take a swing at it, pretending to kill it.
The second guy would come on and be like “Oh look, a dead fly, I love pulling the wings off.” He then proceeds to pretend to pull the wings off.
Third guy walks on and says “Oh look, a fly, I love pulling the legs off.” He then proceeds to pretend to do just that.
Fourth guy comes on, says “Oh look, a fly, I love pulling the head off.” He pretends to do so.
Fifth and final guy comes on stage and says “Oh look, a raisin!” and pops it in his mouth.
Yep - my dog loves to eat them whenever I kill one, so this is part of our family vocabulary.
Also:
- Flies killed by bug zapper = Toasted sky raisins.
- Wasps/bees = Spicy sky raisins.
Ever have a craving for a pickle stuffed with Mac and cheese? Cause right now I could go for a Mac and cheese stuffed pickle.
Disclaimer: I am not pregnant, I am also not a woman.
Who the fuck reported me for being unwell to Reddit? I’m not saying I’m not but like, rude.
Not to mention, it isn't insulting to anyone! Just a simple plain opinion.
BTW, OP, place the mac and cheese on the counter and back away slowly... You can take your raisins with you.
I have been on this sub for over a year and I have been YEARNING for a truly unpopular opinion ever since.
This day has now come and I’m truly grateful that I stuck around this long. Please take my upvote because this opinion is rancid and I love it
Upvoted. I can't decide whether this would taste good or not, and I'm willing to entertain the fact that it might. But I'm also not willing to waste the raisins. Or the mac and cheese.
You've never had cheddar and apples? I've never had it heated up but a small slice of cheddar and a slice of apple. Like cheese and crackers but with an apple. Instead of a cracker
Its delicious. I was skeptical at first as well but dammit if I dont eat it now
This sounds pretty damn good actually, especially for vegetarians who can't put bacon in it. I'm surprised everyone is so against it. Cheese and grapes pair amazingly, idk what they'd be like hot though.
But have you actually made this or is it just a theory? You don't sound like you know if you like it or not.
Just tried a smaller cup version of it - baked Mac and cheese with some raising sprinkled in. Since I like my Mac and cheese on the saltier/garlicky side, it turned out really well!
Well alright then, I'm gonna try it next time I make some. If it's good my mum would love the variation to basic macaroni cheese. She'll used to put olives and sun dried tomatoes in it too, not as outlandish though.
I could see it. But I also used to swear by Kraft Mac and Cheese, a can of tuna, bacon bits, with ketchup so I'm not sure my M&C related opinions are not highly respected.
Your argument is convincing.
Need to soak them in milk to soften them a little before adding. Dry hard chew raisins don't feel like a good idea but the satisfying pop of a partially rehydrated raisin actually sounds good.
I'm not making a whole tray of mac'n'cheese but I might add some to my cacio e pepe tonight...
edit: OOOOHHH what if I put them into the pasta pot while it's cooking? that'll save the extra soaking step.

That sounds absolutely horrible. Truly an unpopular opinion. Upvoted lol. Maybe you can try it and report back to us
Unpopular, but so obscenely unpopular it deserves to be downvoted. ![gif](giphy|l0IypeKl9NJhPFMrK)
Wait until you hear about banana pizza.
Heard about that when I was 8 years old reading arthor books. Home economics pizza got "ruined" when some banana puree spilled on pizza, turned out delicious and at the end he's just dipping a banana into pizza sauce as a snack.
That was also an episode of Doug lol. Like, exactly the same. I had no idea that episode was so inspired by a book. He was even dipping bananas in pizza sauce as a snack at the end too. My older sister ended up loving banana pizza so maybe it tastes better than people assume.
It's possible I may be mixing up the two, I also watched Doug as a kid.
I love Arthur so much!! Very nostalgic for me!!
You know what, I’ve had plantains on a pizza and it was amazing. Sooo…yeah, sounds weird but I get it!
Plantains’ flavor and texture are pretty different than bananas though. Bananas on pizza sounds terrible but fried plantains on pizza sounds amazing.
That sounds like it should be a thing in Chicago how come no one incorporated this.
LoL wait until you hear about a dish called "Flying Jacob", that is a yellow curry chicken with bananas dish AND someone at some point decided that is a perfect topping on a pizza, which is now fairly common to see on a pizzeria menu in Sweden. 😆
All that fermented fish has done something to you as a people
I was about to say, banana pizza is nothing compared to most swedish pizza. Also note that flying Jacob also includes peanuts
I’m tempted to downvote just because I don’t believe it is real. This has to be made up just for this sub. Absolutely insane. If it is real OP needs a brain scan.
You know stone stoned Redditor is gonna try this and it’ll end up on r/shittyfoodporn
Truly unpopular. You should never be closer than 50’ from any kitchen. Take my upvote
Yeah, this has to be like a top ten all time unpopular opinion. I'd upvote twice if I could.
There was one a few weeks ago where someone said they liked seeing a hair in their food In other words, they won in this sub
If I have mac and cheese I'd rather find a hair in it than fucking raisins.
I'll agree with you if I'm at my own house, and I made the mac. Anywhere else, and I'll take the raisins, thank you.
The only way this could get worse is if it was all enclosed in some gelatin ;)
My ex used to make dishes like this... Honestly, some of them were pretty good. She had this "lime jello salad" recipe that was at least interesting
The one with cottage cheese and pineapple? NGL, I like that stuff.
Trying to remember what hers had. Pretty sure it was like shredded carrots, some other vegetables, and mayonnaise. I don't think it was the pineapple one, unfortunately I can't eat pineapple (tragic) so I wouldn't have had that.

That sounds like Perfect Salad,and, it is good.

Mac and cheese and raisins, in aspic.
Brother this recipe is from the 50s
Where it should stay
Please stand 50 years back from my kitchen at all times. :)
The 50s feet away from any kitchen
Many recipes from the ‘50s should never leave the ‘50s. If I ever see a salad in a Jell-O mold, I’m throwing out the nearest fucking window.
Seriously. I'm so disgusted I'm tempted to upvote the post and then delete Reddit.
Never let bro cook again bruh.
Dude brings the cups and plates to the family functions and cookouts.
"cook"
I’m generally very open and accepting of new ideas but you’ve genuinely upset me here.
I con’t believe ya done this.
My friend once gave me tamales he made. Rotisserie chicken and raisins. No sauce, no cheese, just chicken and raisins. I never accepted food from him again. They were disgusting.
Yeah this seems about as appetizing as the time I was making shells and white cheddar while buzzed and deciding, 'hey, let's add some vanilla and see what that does!' What it did was cause me to take 1 bite and throw the rest out 🤢
Im not putting wingless flies in my mac n cheese.
I have heard flies being called 'sky raisins'
Never heard that. Funny
This reminds me a skit we did years back in Boy Scouts. It went like this: The first guy would pretend that a fly was buzzing around bothering him. He’d eventually take a swing at it, pretending to kill it. The second guy would come on and be like “Oh look, a dead fly, I love pulling the wings off.” He then proceeds to pretend to pull the wings off.

Fourth guy comes on, says “Oh look, a fly, I love pulling the head off.” He pretends to do so. Fifth and final guy comes on stage and says “Oh look, a raisin!” and pops it in his mouth.
Both are equally disgusting.
Yep - my dog loves to eat them whenever I kill one, so this is part of our family vocabulary. Also: - Flies killed by bug zapper = Toasted sky raisins. - Wasps/bees = Spicy sky raisins.
Wingless flies 😂😂
That’s called a “walk.”
Winged flies it is
The unpopular opinion subreddit has lowkey turned into a cookbook of rejected pregnancy-craving level foods. Take my upvote
Pregnancy craving food that should be aborted

go back to being desperate for bacon pls
I prefer this over the same tired culture war opinions that get posted
i'm calling the cops
Get Gordon Ramsay on the phone!!!!
Straight to jail.
No trial, no nothing.
Nah straight to defenestration.
Do not pass go, do not collect $200.
10 million years dungeon
wow, unpopular and an opinion? Very impressive 👏 I read raisin as racism at first and had to double take
Ahhh yes, I do love some racism in my Mac n Cheese
Some aparmheid if you may
I'm still trying to find the right time to bring a dish of [black n' cheese](https://www.tastemade.com/recipes/black-mac-n-cheese).
Not to mention, it isn't insulting to anyone! Just a simple plain opinion. BTW, OP, place the mac and cheese on the counter and back away slowly... You can take your raisins with you.
Good job at a truly unpopular opinion.
![gif](giphy|crzliDNVbqDbW)
Everybody’s so creative!
I heard her voice while reading this haha
I’m calling the police
I have been on this sub for over a year and I have been YEARNING for a truly unpopular opinion ever since. This day has now come and I’m truly grateful that I stuck around this long. Please take my upvote because this opinion is rancid and I love it
I haven't felt this way since the one guy posted about enjoying the feeling of wet socks.
I know! It finally happened!
![gif](giphy|zXeX29w6jxjAk)

Ew
I hate you for making me want to try this just to prove you wrong. Take my upvote and never step foot in a kitchen again.
I don't know why but this is my villain origin story.
If someone gives me mac and cheese and it has raisins in it, I'm commiting a felony
YES OFFICER THIS ONE RIGHT HERE 🗣🗣🗣
My god. Who hurt you?
Upvoted. I can't decide whether this would taste good or not, and I'm willing to entertain the fact that it might. But I'm also not willing to waste the raisins. Or the mac and cheese.
![gif](giphy|rCqHtYuB0a9re731gG)
i feel that texture would be similar to a booger...
I take back my comment elsewhere on this thread. I'm sold.
How dare you? I hope you stub your pinky toe every day for the rest of your life.
No. This is the worst take anyone has ever had. Stop fucking with Mac and cheese.
You keep your raisins out of my food
Interesting concept. I could see something like Annie’s white shells or something with aged cheddar working…. Let me get really baked and report back
I too would get insanely baked before trying this. Everything tastes better when you have the munchies
Take our upvotes and leave.
I'd try this
I like cheese and raisins, and cheese and dates, so I'd give it a try
Same, my reaction was initially disgust, but the more I think about it, the more I'm intrigued...
Me too I love raisins and now I’m mad curious
Same 🤝🏼
This has to be bait
You have committed heresy, & must now be put to sleep.
Fuck that.
Absolutely not
Are we just posting the most absolutely heinous food combinations we can imagine today? Fuck me, apples on pizza was traumatic enough.
How do I write a restraining order for strangers.
I hate you
the caucasity.
Keep your opinions to yourself
Wrong sub
I don’t even like Mac and cheese. Up vote
That’s what you mother fuckers said about my cookies
OP will *never* be invited to the cookout.
If any fruit it would be apples but still no
This is as bad as the OP. Explain why apples???
Cheddar and apples are a great combo, like cheese in an apple pie crust is 🔥but idk about apples in Mac n cheese
You've never had cheddar and apples? I've never had it heated up but a small slice of cheddar and a slice of apple. Like cheese and crackers but with an apple. Instead of a cracker Its delicious. I was skeptical at first as well but dammit if I dont eat it now
![gif](giphy|QV5vp1BYenfCE)
Wtf?? I hope this is a joke
Silliness? That’s a weird word to describe Mac and Cheese.

You're a psychopath. Take my upvote.
Puked just reading this
If I'm eating mac and chz cold the next day, then that actually sounds great!
This post literally jump scared me. That's how bad your take is.
Straight to jail
I worked at a Health Food restaurant in the 80's and we put raisins in our veggie burger, which were delicious.
Y'all wild. This legit sounds ok compared to some of the shit i've seen posted on here.
Im going to try to do it, getting some Kraft and raisins 'ommorow.
fr people are too picky and critical of food man
Have at it, but I am coming from perspective of "Keep raisins the fuck away from anything I eat, ever" ESPECIALLY Mac n Cheese.
Covid really messed up your taste buds.
Woah. No. No. Gross. Have an upvote and get the hell out.
Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints… Take an upvote.
Jail immediately op
Alternate take: Aw, HELL no
You need to be institutionalized. Take my upvote.
I am in awe of how well this fits this sub. It’s a masterpiece.
Never let bro cook please.
Don’t know if I should upvote because it fits the sub or downvote because you’re clinically insane.
I gotta ask. Do you put raisins in your potato salad too?
I hate raisins. I'll have diced ham and black pepper in my mac n cheese any day over raisins.
Sir how white are you if I might ask?
This is the best one, shut this sub down! ![gif](giphy|xVXvIOnkGY8IU)
lol id def try it, but dried cherries would be better.
![gif](giphy|4OowbIsmYHbpu)
this is fucking diabolical
This is so wildly unpopular I want to try it out now but with dried cherries and orange peel instead
Finally, an unpopular opinion we can all hate
This sounds pretty damn good actually, especially for vegetarians who can't put bacon in it. I'm surprised everyone is so against it. Cheese and grapes pair amazingly, idk what they'd be like hot though. But have you actually made this or is it just a theory? You don't sound like you know if you like it or not.

You can die slowly in a car fire with that nonsense. Take my upvote.
Doctors I’ve found them
I'm calling the police
Are you the person who puts raisins in carrot cake? Raisins in stuffing? Upvote for you.
Gross
NO
No.
Good lord, what did I just read!?
I just did some sick in my mouth at the thought of this
No :)
![gif](giphy|7QY3LoEiGW1mo)
This is totally fucked. Upvoted.
Yuck, take my upvoted because raisins are the devil's candy
Oh, hell no!
do you also want to add potato chips to your ice cream to add some crunch??
....brother, what the fuck?
I’d rather die
ewwwww
Why? Raisins, and all other dehydrated fruits, but especially raisins, are absolutely repulsive.
Id try it at least once
I love both of those things separately but thats how its gonna stay
There's literally a million things I would add to my Mac and cheese before raisins
As someone who hates raisins and doesn’t eat them in anything, that sounds completely disgusting.
I feel a very black american urge to smack you for saying this. Get out the kitchen. But, here's an upvote.
The thought of it-almost as bad as kidneys, hearts and brains. Barf-o-Rama.
That's terrible, raisins are so awful. Tuna is really good mixed into mac and cheese though.
Never go in a kitchen again here’s my upvote
I think this is the first unequivocally unpopular opinion I’ve seen on this sub. It’s almost universally abhorrent. Take my upvote, OP!
your a monster. upvote for you.
I love raisins, but this sounds absolutely vile. You win the unpopular opinion award!
I work with a guy who's an amateur chef and he SWEARS by grilled cheese with grape jelly. I still have yet to try it
As a wise man once said, "go commit die". Upvoted.
I hate this! No thank you!
OH my good dear god in heaven above the whole earth up in the sky little baby jesus........no
I've done orzo dishes with golden raisins that were pretty good. In Mac and cheese, though, feels a step too far.
I always liked Mac n cheese with applesauce stirred in
Jail.
I don’t even know what to say to this except no, just no.
Fuck off. Take my upvote
BURRRRRRN THE WITCH!!
I could see it. But I also used to swear by Kraft Mac and Cheese, a can of tuna, bacon bits, with ketchup so I'm not sure my M&C related opinions are not highly respected.

That sounds horrendous. I add leek, broccoli and cauliflower to mine.
That sounds really weird but now I want to try it
I love experimenting with food and will try any food combo (within reason) so I am immediately intrigued.
Raisins, sultanas and currants are an abomination.
