What is the most overrated PRODUCT you can think of?

Any product, any brand or type. Be specific. Speaking from your own experience. 

For me, it’s Jack Daniels whiskey. Straight up crap. Tastes like battery acid smells. A good Scotch eats its lunch. 

What say you?

    Red Bull tonic water. Seems quite popular and advertised a lot but I do not like the stuff because leaves an unpleasant after taste.
    But maybe it's just me.

    I'm with you there, hard liquor is disgusting.  It doesn't matter what you call it or what you add to it, all hard liquor is the same, disgusting.

    I hear ya. For me, some liquors are enjoyable, my passion for good rum is legend, but I have found no drink variation that makes Jack D palatable. Yecch.

    This one’s amusing to me. My wife had purchased a variation of Nutella called “Fun Spread”, cute name but we are only left to imagine how to make it fun...
    (Whipped cream is easier to clean off)

    Haha is that what that's actually for?! I feel like I've seen that label in a grocery store, would they seriously be selling body chocolate at a Safeway?!

    Any 'so-called' famously labeled, expensive bottled water. You know, the ones that are $3-$5 a bottle.

  • It’s  already been said here, but I’m going to have to go with Starbucks. I don’t get paying $5 for coffee that tastes like the sludge from bottom of pot.

    It was fine, not that different from Dunkin Donuts. It's in Geneva, which is at the northern end of Seneca Lake near Ithaca, Rochester, and Syracuse. This post was edited by Stu Spelling Bee at February 23, 2019 6:13 PM MST

  • I see, yeah I go to Syracuse often because I prefer to fly out of your Airports than ours. I’m sure that’s where I’ve seen Tim’s down there  :) Never tried Dunken donuts.
