Do you also get really annoyed when someone is in the kitchen while you are cooking or cleaning up? And are horrified when people pour milk first and then put in cereal? Do you feel the urge to correct a person who seems to know what they are doing but are doing it wrong?
It seems that the kitchen attracts a lot of frustration and people can argue about food and cooking for hours. Reddit user rawlingstones know this human trait and when they posed the questions of “What’s your stupidest cooking opinion” they also added “so we can fight about it?”
The fight in the thread was pretty civilised despite some pretty controversial opinions being thrown around. Are there any in this list that you agree with? What is a food opinion that you will fight about? Let us know in the comments!

Dividing fillings for sandwiches between two slices of bread first and then flipping it together don't make sense (unless they are viscous enough like PB&J) . Just pile it all on one slice and top it off with the last slice so things don't fall out

Greek yogurt is not a reasonable swap in all the recipes where you would usually use sour cream.
Red onions are really purple and they are only suitable for cold or room temperature food preparations.

Much of Trader Joe's frozen food offerings are delicious and nutritious. They are not examples of insipid cultural appropriation.

Garlic presses *aren’t* all that bad. Yes, sometimes there’s no use for them and I do hate single use devices, but they have their purpose.

Simply mixing everything together at once for baking rather than mixing dry ingredients and wet ingredients separately is good enough most the time.

I cannot make a burger as good as ones in my favorite restaurants so burgers are exclusively going out foods, not cook at home foods.

you can use a lot more salt than people normally do and still not taste it. i see people pinching salt onto their steaks, while i sprinkle that s**t on every square inch. makes meat super tender and its great for flavor.. use more salt.
