What is the food you won't eat?

[NikitaZee]

I'm pretty adventurous too, and I'll usually try anything once. What I have tried - to be polite at a Native American feast - and almost got sick from was tripe. I won't ever eat that again (or be in a position to, I imagine).

I also hate lima beans.

I will try most anything that doesn't sound disgusting.

I have eaten blood pudding (my dad loved it, I didn't), head cheese (same). When I first got married my wife used to prepare tongue. I tried it a couple of times and just couldn't make myself enjoy it. (at least not in edible form)

I never have liked liver, but I love the smell of it cooking...go figure!

I'm not into game meats, as they suggest they are usually "gamey". People say smother it with onions. If I need to completely erase the taste of something to make it palatable, why would I want to eat it. Salmon is not one of my favorites mostly because my mother used to make some kind of salmon wiggle and I was always biting into some bone fragment that made me loose my desire for it.

Clam's and Oysters are out although I like most other sea food. Oysters are something that I alternately call either "sea snot" or "phlegm fillets".

I tried frogs legs once, they were OK but nothing that I would reorder and snails are definitely out of my range of tolerance.

As stated, organ meats for the most part are acquired tastes and anything that I have to develop a taste for totally makes me shake my head and wonder why I would want to eat something that requires practice to convince myself I like. Scotch falls into that same category.

Actually, vegetarians CAN'T eat Peeps

I won't explain, because most people don't want to know.

I know this one: Peeps are made with gelatin and gelatin is made from pig and cow's skin and bones. Yuck.

It's the same reason why I like to use plastic playing cards, gelatin is on that too!

And don't even get me started on Jell-O

I think I'm weird. Artichokes are one of my very favorite foods, and I also enjoy mincemeat pie, oatmeal, and cooked greens.

Nope not weird, I agree with you on everything except mincemeat. I would almost anything and maybe mincemeat if it had artichokes on it. lol

I agree with travelbug about the other foods though. I can not stomach liver, sushi, marmelade, or grits... not even with artichokes PILED on them.

No, I think I'm probably the weird one. At least where oatmeal is concerned. Everyone I know loves oatmeal, but I couldn't choke it down even if someone paid me! (Could have something to do with a childhood food trauma with oatmeal )

 

[Pancakes]

Lasagna and Ravioli.
I won't eat it. The melted cheese in the middle...ugh yuck.

I'll eat hot dogs....but I don't enjoy it.

 

[Angelhalo]

Waterchestnuts! I DESPISE their texture and I can't stand when people put them into things that are supposed to have a mushy texture, there shouldn't be something crazy crunchy thrown in there. YUCK!

 

[Feralpeg]

Liver
Hominy
Cilantro (This is hard since it is the "In" ingredient)
Most types of fish. I absolutely hate salmon. I do like Orange Roughy and shrimp

I agree with the mixing of textures. I enjoy ice cream and I like nuts also. But don't dare ruin the silky smoothness of my ice cream with nutty obstructions!

 

[Angelhalo]

Just read back through the thread and its so funny that so many people don't like sushi. DH and I JUST had sushi for dinner tonight and while we were there I said : I will never ever be able to understand the brain of someone who doesn't like sushi"

UCK, how could I forget about water chestnuts!!! the worst is when you find them in spinich dip....so very wrong.

 

[kaffinito]

Tofu. I cannot stand tofu. I'll eat anything else though.

 

[RyeCrimsonMoon]

Bacon and Chikpeas. I don't know, I just can't stand either of them, even the smell of bacon makes me feel sick

I don't like to eat hotdogs and hamburgers, but I will eat them.

 

[Disneyland_Mama]

I will not eat:

Ribs or any other meat still attached to the bone
Hot dogs or any other wiener-type meat
Bologna - any meat that oozes yellow stuff when heated is just wrong
Tongue - tongue??? 'nuff said
Organ meat - Ugh.
Fish that still looks like its former self
Anything with a head still attached

 

[hrh_disney_queen]

Organ meats and any meat other than chicken, turkey, beef, or pork. No game meats, veal, or lamb, either. Fish makes me gag.
