Truffles, the most over-rated food

Don't get truffles, they taste awful and they're cultivated by pigs sniffing them out. They can't compare to potatoes from a taste perspective. I cannot understand what's all the fuss about. And while I'm on the topic of overrated foods, let me add mushrooms, a cousin to Athlete's Foot, and eggplant the homeliest food of all, to the list.
