Food Poll!!!

Jacki05

What is one food you just can't stand?  What about it repels you?

Jacki05

I've learned to like or at least tolerate most foods, but one I still can't stomach is dried coconut.  Ugh!  It tastes so fake, and the texture is like eating cardboard.

Brussels sprouts. My mom used to force me to eat them when I was a kid. They taste like wet socks and smell funny!

The only food off top of my head I know I cannot stand is fish.  I only eat shellfish...even in my sushi.  The smell of tunafish or salmon make me want to puke.

You watch, when I am pregnant one day I will crave fish.  LOL!

 Oh wait, cottage cheese.  That too makes me cringe.  The look and taste of it.

Olives! I just can't stand the way they taste- I really, really hate it when one slips into a sandwich or something, and I bite into it.

I can't eat bananas without gagging! I can eat them dried, I can eat them in fruit salad or a banana split, but not by themselves. I actually went years without eating a banana, but last year I found a teacher in my school who felt the same way I did (hated them!). There were lots of bananas on the table in the teachers lounge, so we both decided to give them a shot together. We both gagged! lol......

sushi. i can't do it. i have tried and it makes me wanna vomit. the texture freaks me out and the fact you have to shove the whole thing in your mouth. also, the idea of uncooked meat. SICK!

Wow, I love coconut and l adore sushi!  Hee hee.  This is pretty fun!  The two big things I dislike are things everyone else seems to love, so no worries!

First, I absolutely, positively abhor tomatoes!!  Ech!  Tomato suace is okay or ketchup, of course.  But raw tomatoes disgust me.  They are just so mushy and their seeds get everywhere!  Gag!

Second, is mint.  Yep, I hate mint.  I don't care if it's in mojitos, chocolate, gum or ice cream.  I even use child's toothpaste because all adult toothpaste has a mint base and I think it's disgusting.  All the gum I chew is bubblegum.  And I hate that at restaurants when they give you those free chocolates at the end of dinner they are always mint.  Geez!

Mushrooms - the texture and taste

march2008

I am such a picky eater, so I could go on and on in this poll.....but I won't. I will just say that anything that resembles the animal from which it came from, I will not eat and makes me loose my appetite instantly (i.e. anything on the bone or that isn't well done). I am not a vegetarian, but I have to basically "hide" meat in things when I'm eating. For example: ground beef within tacos or mixed in rice; chicken stir fry with veggies/rice or in quesadillas. I'm weird; I know!

Definitely liver! UGH! My mother used to make me eat it.  I would gag with every bite.  It was sheer torture.

I also don't like dried coconut, as Jacki mentioned.  I hate the texture.

brussel sprouts, lima beans, cooked fruit, tator tots

for me most of it is a texture issue...however brussel sprouts smell like farts to me so that is why I don't like them.

I totally forgot to say why I didn't like mint. . .

I know this is weird, but I don't like that cold sensation it gives my mouth.  I know most people think of that as the "fresh" feeling they get from mint but as a kid it always felt more like a burning sensation and made everything I ate or drank afterwards taste yucky or made my mouth cold again.  Also, I've always thought all mint (spearmint, peppermint, wintergreen) tastes bitter.  Even mint candies (gum, hard candies, etc) don't taste sweet to me, they taste bitter and awful.  I also hate cinnamon gum/candies because they also give me that awful cold/burning sensation. Does anyone else feel this way or am I a total weirdo??
