Green bean casserole

I didn't realize so many people hated it.  Do you like it?  Why or why not?

I usually hate cream of anything soup, but I LOVE green bean casserole for some reason.

    It's my favorite dish!!!!!  I add sauteed onion and bacon to mine to give it more flavor. I also use cream of chicken instead of cream of mushroom. 

    I'm drooling now :)

    I'll eat it if it's there, but it's not an essential dish in our house.

    Um, I'm obsessed with it.  My whole family is.  My sister makes it so well.  I know most of it tastes the same but hers is just better.  I cannot wait to eat it.

    Love it. Really though, there are few foods I do not like.

    I'd rather eat green beans without all the processed goop.  Like, sauted with almonds, a little bacon, garlic, and some red onion.  Now, that's delicious!

    HATE it, if you couldn't tell by the response below. I hate cream of anything soups, white sauces of any kind really, and I hate mushrooms. The green beans always seem to be overcooked and just the look of it makes me want to retch.

    Blech, it is so gross! I don't mind cream of blank soups but we just don't eat it at our thanksgiving. Dh's family eats it every thanksgiving. I have only had one version that was good and it was Dh's Aunt made the sauce from scratch with whole mushrooms, bacon and cream, yum!

    Never had it, never will.  It's never been on an Thanksgiving table I've been at.

    Same here.  I have to say though that these posts have me intrigued!

    I am not a huge fan. I will take a small spoonful if its there, but I am not going to finish the bowl off. I would rather have fresh green beans than mushy can ones. :)

    I love it! I was shopping with my parents for the Thanksgiving dinner over the weekend and my mom asked, "Do we really need green bean casserole this year?" I looked at her like she was the craziest woman on the planet and quickly told her, "Hell yeah! It wouldn't be Thanksgiving without it!"
