These food names are lying to you!
A little food trivia for the next time a dish’s name has you expecting one thing and your plate delivers another.

Ever ordered something because the name made you think you knew exactly what was coming, only to have the plate arrive and leave you thinking, "Wait... that’s what this is?"
We’ve all been there. Maybe you assumed Bombay Duck had something to do with a duck or wondered why horse gram had a horse in its name. Sometimes, food names sound so convincing that we never stop to question them. Until, of course, we find out what they actually mean.
Turns out, the world of food is full of these little naming plot twists. Some foods have names that point you in the completely wrong direction, while others sound like they belong to an entirely different category.
So, how many of these food names have been fooling you all along? Follow along to find out.

Clearly, food names come with their own plot twists. Which one surprised you the most, and what’s another food name you’ve always found suspicious? Let us know in the comments!
