One food fits all

Are there any universally tasty foods? Foods that no one dislikes? I'm not saying food that everyone loves or everyone craves, but foods that everyone agrees are pleasant tasting.

So far I have a grand total of 3 candidates:

1. French Fries
2. Bananas
3. Graham Crackers

I fully recognize that many in the world may not have tasted some of these, but I want to know about those that have tasted, and the likelihood that they would be universally tasty if everyone had. Does anyone know of anyone who doesn't like these? Anymore to add to the list?

Space - An unending supply of Rootbeer

It occurred to me the other night as I was staring into the night sky, that despite all we do now know about space, there is still a massive amount of information that we don't know. With that in mind, it seems to me that, as far as space is concerned, virtually anything is possible. For example, it is possible that there is a planet out there made out of marshmallow. Or a moon that is actually made out of cheese.

There might be a planet where the people live underground or underwater, and make exploratory trips to the surface.

There might be a planet where most travel occurs through the center of the planet, maybe via big pipes (That's right!).

There might be a planet with oceans made of rootbeer.

There might be a planet where the streets are actually paved with gold.

What about a planet with zero G?

A planet with double G?

A planet where it actually rains cats and dogs?

The possibilities, as usual, are endless.
