Gourmet

I find that "gourmet" is an incredibly silly word. First of all, it is properly a noun and not an adjective. As a noun, it means a connoisseur of fine food and drink. In theory, if you use it as an adjective like it commonly is, then it means that the food or drink is of high quality.

Here is where the silliness comes in: what makes something high enough in quality to call it gourmet? There isn't one at all. Therefore, by putting on the product label that it is gourmet, then that makes it gourmet. And how do we know? Because it says right on the label that it's gourmet. 

I find words like these to be amusing. They truly convince people that they're on the up and up, and yet they have no real meaning aside from what we give them.
