Welcome to General Memes

Memes for the masses, chuckles for the chosen.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not CruelWe’re here for laughs, not fights.

  • No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
  • No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
  • Keep it light — argue in the comments, not with insults

Rule 2: No Forbidden FormatsNot every image deserves immortality on the memmlefield. That means:

  • No spam or scams
  • No porn or sexually explicit content
  • No illegal content (seriously, don’t ruin the fun)
  • NSFW memes must be properly tagged

If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can take care of it.

Otherwise consider this your call to duty. Get posting or laughing. Up to you

I like Kale. Im not even a health nut.

Nobody LIKES kale, it's just a health trend

[–] Jesus_666@lemmy.world 16 points 3 days ago

It's quite popular in North German cuisine. As someone from North Germany I can confidently say this counts against kale as a food.

Actually, there are ways to prepare it so it's a tasty addition, like in a soup. As a salad it's awful, though.

[–] certified_expert@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Can confirm about the soup

I like kale and potato stew, I'd pick it over eggplant or quinoa.

with this one i think a lot of it comes down to if you can taste those test strips from high school biology class. if you can, you're going to hate kale. if you can't you're going to think the people who hate kale are being unnecessarily dramatic.

(bias report: i can taste the strips and i hate kale)

So it's like a cilantro tasting of soap thing? I'm so very glad I didn't get any of these, unless there's one for coffee. Can't stand the taste of coffee, even in tiramisu.

I hate kale. I can barely tolerate most leafy greens, and then along comes this trend of making every salad a kale one and now I can't order any fuckin salad unless I feel like paying to mentally fight my gag reflex the entire time I'm eating it

[–] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

This is plainly untrue. I went through a period of eating lot of salad, and I can think of exactly one with kale.

I suppose it's been letting up the last few years now that I think of it. Also now that I'm back in a large city, most restaurants have more than 1–2 salad options so the chance of a kale trap is decreased
