Tinned Sweetcorn
 
Not because of any kind of allergy but because it tastes like dead wasps.

List your culinary prejudices here.

Powdered mashed potato - looks like tile sealant, and pretty much has the same taste, really.

Durian fruit - even the smell alone is enough to make me want to seriously heave.

Marrow - I've never been able to get on with this vegetable. Chewy, stringy, and a flavour so watery and weak it may as well be non existant. Bah.

Okra! Ladies fingers? If I knew any lady who had fingers as slimy as that I'd tell her to... stop sticking them in slimy places!

sarramkrop 01.11.2009 04:22 PM

Polenta = vomit cake

blunderbuss 01.11.2009 04:23 PM

Don't get me started on fucking tapioca.

sarramkrop 01.11.2009 04:25 PM

I once had to eat asda powdered mashed potato 'cause it was past midnight and i couldn't be bothered to go to the shop. it made me feel ill.

MellySingsDoom 01.11.2009 04:28 PM

Aslo - cabbage when boiled to death the English way. Argh! People, people, it's all about the Czech-style red cabbage every time, doncha know?

demonrail666 01.11.2009 05:03 PM

There's a Tesco homebrand pasta sauce that's about a quid for a jar. Anyway, it glows in the dark. Avoid.

StevOK 01.11.2009 05:05 PM

Celery makes me choke.

I occasionlly try eating brussel sprouts thinking one day I might actually grow to like them, but unfortunately I still feel like I'm chomping on a pile of rotting gremlin testes or something.

I was just chatting with one of my housemates about the beneficial powers of brussel sprouts a few minutes ago.

Sonic Youth 37 01.11.2009 05:54 PM

Mayonnaise
Iceberg lettuce
raw tomato
eggs (I can't stand any type of 'plain' egg including omelet)

There are loads more because I'm picky, but those are some of the major offenders

pokkeherrie 01.11.2009 06:47 PM

Shellfish.

Yuck, might as well eat bugs.

demonrail666 01.11.2009 06:51 PM

It's a cliche but marmite really does have me gagging in an instant.

I must be very weird for liking my veggies (except celery). I like broccoli, cabbage, brussel sprouts and spinach.

brussel sprouts contain a chemical that only some can taste, if you can taste it then sprouts will taste vile.

Savage Clone 01.11.2009 06:54 PM

Shellfish ARE bugs. Exoskeleton, zillions of legs, antennae = BUGS.

Besides the stuff vegans dont eat, which falls into my "default" category, here are some:

Avocado
Pea soup
Eggplant
Onions, unless they are cooked down to the point of nothingness
Rutabaga
Squash


And no, it's not because "I just haven't had a REALLY GOOD blahblahblah," it's because I honestly find these supposed "foodstuffs" to be disgusting.

Savage Clone 01.11.2009 06:55 PM

Oh, and canned spinach. YECCH. Fresh, yes. Canned, no way in fucking hell.
I also hate asparagus.

Not at all - I'm very much into the broccoli and spinach. Either or those steamed are rather popular in this household. I don't mind celery at all, though cucumber I find a bit watery, to be honest.

Savage Clone 01.11.2009 06:57 PM

Broccoli is great.

when you cook sprouts they release some sort of sulfur and the smell of that triggers a natural defense system from your senses, telling your body "don't eat/poison".

i'm not going to argue with my senses.

Glice 01.11.2009 09:32 PM

Eggs make me retch. As in fried/ poached/ boiled eggs. If they're an ingredient, then fine, but as a foodstuff in their own right, vile things. Same with tinned beans.

I'd also rather rim a pack of wolves than eat sprouts.

al shabbray 01.12.2009 10:37 AM

yes a lot has changed. I am eating olives since a few year...
one major taste-changing experience was starting to drink alcohol. I thought that I would never enjoy it, when I sipped at some beer or booze.
sometimes I wish that I was right, hrhrhr

floatingslowly 01.12.2009 10:44 AM

I don't like mole'.

AT ALL.

it's the only food from South of Texico that I can't eat. :(

Whatever, bug-eater.

floatingslowly 01.12.2009 12:28 PM

when feelers stroke my thorax, my chitin stiffins.

mangajunky 01.12.2009 12:56 PM

beets taste like dirt - but they can be made palatable
peas with pasta - not for me
Popeye's chicken gives me a very bad headache
pasta from a can is just gross
Ketchup unless it's an ingredient in something is like eating tomato flavored corn syrup

MARGARINE GROWS UNDER THE DEVIL'S SWEATY NUTSACKS.

it's fucking disgusting.

the omega 3 in fish and seafood are what made possible the evolution of the modern human brain. eat seafood, feed your brain.

bugs or not, seafood is delicious. mollusks as well as arthropoda. lobsters, crabs, shrimp and crawfish, fishes and their roes, clams and scallops and mussels, sea urchins, their flesh and juices, fuck yeah.

!@#$%! 01.12.2009 01:21 PM

other detestable foodstuff:

OVERCOOKED VEGETABLES of any kind (particularly cruciferous like broccoli, brussel sprouts-- edible when crunchy aNd even delicious well prepared, but foul when soggy, due to their sulfur content).

OLESTRA. need i say more.

OVERLY SWEET STUFF. some "mincemeat pies" i had at a friend's house the other day qualify. sweet = good. overly sweet = toxic.

FOLGERS COFFEE or any light roasted coffee with high acidity. vomitory. and the "NON DAIRY CREAMER" that comes in a powder, made with some kind of oil fat-- fucking disgusting.

RANCID OILS. too many people cook with those ignoring their noses, oblivious to the damage.

GREASY CHICKEN. like, tyson's chicken sells these bags of chicken wings that are just some fucking jello of chicken lard. noes.

SUPERMARKET EGGS. vomitory. only in america? they taste like sour crap. what the fuck do they feed those hens? fresh organic eggs are delicious, on the other hand.

SUPERMARKET MILK. the stench is unbearable and you can taste the pus. compare vs. organic milk, fucking yummy-- another substance altogether.

CHEAP LIMBURGER CHEESE. i love most cheeses but this si fuckign foul. oh, another one

VELVEETA "CHEESE PRODUCT". die. die. die motherfucker.

7-11 APPLES. irradiated styrofoam with a 9-month shelf life.

█████████ 01.12.2009 04:17 PM

broad beans. there's a good reason why they're also known as horse beans.

sarramkrop 01.12.2009 04:19 PM

yeah ketchup is disgusting.

Glice 01.12.2009 05:35 PM

Bad cheese... I'm so not a fan of bad cheese. Before I went to uni, a friend of mine said, "You'll get a lot of advice, most of it shit, most of it you'll forget. But never, ever buy cheap cheese". Best advice ever.

demonrail666 01.12.2009 05:41 PM

It's true! Manufacturers of bad cheese (Pilgrim's Choice, Cathedral City, etc) try and cover their crimes by using terms such as 'full strength' rather than 'matured'. It's companies like that that give cheddar a bad name, despite the fact that a good cheddar is the rival of any cheese out there. Ask Alex James if you don't believe me.

Rob Instigator 01.12.2009 06:09 PM

I enjoy almost al foods. i do not like the smell or the taste of green olives though. fucking barf

margarine and all non butter "butters" are oils infised with minute particles of aluminum oxide which is why it is called "hydrogenated" which essentially just makes oils stay "solid" at room temperature. fucking nasty. eat som butter damnit!!!!
