As someone who doesn't like Greek food I've come up with an easy solution to not liking the food somewhere: I just don't go.

    Most Balkan food is just... Mostly not overtly offensive.

    Greece is amazing, but if you want a wild ride, try what passes for "Mexican" food there. If you don't laugh, you'll cry. Makes Taco Bell look legit.

    European tacos are the funniest shit.

    Funniest as in "laugh or cry"

    I would prefer the worst Greek Mexican food over the best Greek food.

    I think a food tour of what countries imagine other foods to be would be quite fun.

    Can I ask what specifically you don't like about it? I'm just curious, no judgement at all.

    The combination of flavor profiles and textures just aren't for me. For example, I don't like feta cheese or olives and they're in just about everything.

    I do like me some grilled lamb, though.

    You'd lose your shit in Australia. It's all souvlakis and open plate gyros
