What is the food you won't eat?

[MelanieC]

I'm a vegetarian so no meat. Other than that, I pretty much eat everything.

 

[bookgirl]

Well you can look at my tags for the big one (onions) LOL

Raisins
Seafood/shellfish
Bell Peppers
Organ Meats

I have lots but mostly they are things I prefer not to eat and avoid but would if I had to. The list above is absolute no-nos.

 

[1957]

Brussel sprouts, okra, canned spinach, canned asparagus, liver, blood sausage, pigs' feet, tongue, sweet tea, ox-tails, congealed grits (sometimes any grits).

Which leaves me with peanut butter, Snickers, and Taco Bell.

 

[dizzy99]

OK, then, what have you tried that you won't eat anymore?

JELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[bookgirl]

JELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL

I don't eat Jello or any sort of tea. I had an unfortuante incident with that combination when I was sick as a child LOL I should have put them on my no-no list as well.

No, I have no problem with unfertilized eggs, I eat them all the time. I'm talking about the ones that some Asian cultures eat that are fertilized eggs. They're actually unhatched baby birds. I think someone else mentioned it in this thread.

I just threw up in my mouth a little.

Ick!!! That sounds like a Survivor challenge.

Actually, it was a survivor challenge.
It's called Balut.
My guess is that most Americans had never heard of it before seeing it on Survivor.

Okay, now I remember Denise trying to get those down in China. It was one of those "turn your head and don't look at the screen" moments.

 

[charming23]

I try to give different foods a try at least once but these are ones I can't do

Any kind of seafood
Mushrooms
Peas
lamb
olives
blue cheese

 

[OK!]

Beets. They were the cause of one of my very few public pukes, and I do not intend to revisit that anytime soon.

I also won't eat avocados (or guacamole), raw onions, celery, cooked carrots, and ham.

 

[Zandy595]

Oh, I forgot to mention... I won't eat bunnies either.

 

[PaulaSB12]

Mussels or anything like that because they make me throw up. Carrot cake just because it sounds and coffee because I really really really hate coffee.

 

[Pakey]

I'm very adventurous and will try anything but I really dislike brussel sprouts, milk, salmon and the worst of all, canned tuna.

 

[C.Ann]

Clams
Beets
Squash
Smelt
Anchovies
Caviar
Sweet Potatoes

 

[curious3069]

Bread and Butter pickles
Pork chops
raw tomatoes...ick ick ick, can't even stand to touch them, they make my hands itch. Cooked are fine, though.
Pickle relish
shellfish

 

[lacrosse_lady72]

I wanted to add some...

Sweet pickles
Fat from meat
Margerine (sp?) I'm a butter snob

 

[WDWBarb]

What?!?! You don't eat Peeps? It's not Easter until you bite off one of those cute little bunny heads.

Actually, vegetarians CAN'T eat Peeps

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

 

[Rora]

Fish.

 

[DisMN]

Mussels, octopus, squid, raw clams, pickled pigs feet. Never. No way, no how.

I have however, over the years learned to eat AND love brussel sprouts, caviar (yep the cheap stuff is fine) and chili.
