Go To

Basic Trope: Everyone else is disgusted by a certain food/drink, except for one character.

  • Straight: The Team tries haggis. Everyone hates it except for Archer, who finds it delicious.
  • Exaggerated:
    • The Team is reduced to vomiting messes over the mention of haggis, but it becomes Archer's Trademark Favorite Food.
    • Archer is the only lifeform in the whole world to enjoy haggis.
  • Downplayed:
    • The Team doesn't like haggis much, so Archer is the only one to actually love it.
    • Archer finds haggis okay, but it's more of a case of Damned by Faint Praise, since the rest of the team hates it.
  • Justified:
    • Archer is used to eating bizarre foods.
    • Archer is the only one to not find out what haggis is made of.
    • Archer is the only one to not associate the nauseating ingredients of fake haggis with real haggis.
    • Archer is a Brave Scot in this case, or is from a culture that has the bizarre food in question as a national food, thus making him not grossed out by it at all.
  • Inverted: Archer is the only one to find that he Does Not Like Spam.
  • Subverted: Archer seems to be enjoying haggis, but then he learns what it's made of...
  • Double Subverted: ...and shrugs it off. He's eaten worse.
  • Parodied:
  • Zig-Zagged: The group tries many new foods. How much of the group enjoys the food seems to vary.
  • Averted: No mention of disliking specific foods/drinks ever occurs.
  • Enforced: "We need to show just how weird this character's taste in food is!"
  • Lampshaded: "Wow, I didn't think anyone even liked that."
  • Invoked: ???
  • Exploited: The group ends up with too much haggis somehow, so they give it all to Archer.
  • Defied: Archer: "BLUGH! You guys were right! This is terrible!"
  • Discussed: "Archer, I seriously think that we need to talk about your personal diet..."
  • Conversed: "How can Archer even tolerate that shit!?"
