I love sushi, I love liver, I love spinach, I love mushrooms etc....

however I do hate... .raw peppers of any kind.. so bitter.. what food would I outright refuse.. not much.. I don't like pickled artichokes.. artichokes in general really, don't like raw carrots, don't like beets, and I have been known to refuse chocolate.

Eels - has anyone here ever seen the film, "The Tin Drum", where they use a horse's head as bait for eels? Tripe, kidneys, brain, "Blutwurst", sardines. I like liver, and all vegetables. My parents used the "starving children in Africa" argument, although there are a lot of things they never ate (leeks, artichokes) that I like.

Puerto Rico... land of rice and beans.
I hate onions.... peppers (sweet or spicy).... I hate anything spicy.... and I presume I am opening myself to a lot of potshots.... but I can't stand peanut butter.... the thought of it makes me cringe.

For some reason egg salad grosses me out. I mean I like eggs alone but not all mixed with stuff.

I don't like heavy food, like whipped cream is too much for me. I don't like heavy sauces. THey way I eat I should be skinny, but I am not at all! I like light fresh things.

Movin' on up!
I don't believe that I could bring myself to eat a raw oyster. I don't even like COOKED ones! NO organ meats or animal guts, with one exception - I LOVE chicken gizzards.

Years ago, we went to a rattlesnake roast. Russ and Mark loved it. For my part - thank goodness that they had a pork roast, too.

My grandmother loved pickled pigs' feet
I can't get cabbage, in any form, past my nose and the smell of tequila makes me sick.

OMG I absolutely adore fresh tomatoes, and mushrooms and banana is one of my fave foods, onions are good, seafoods OK apart from Kina now that IS disgusting! Whitebaits yummy Kellye, although I must admit the eyes scare me the first time I had a whitebait butte, I said to my Aunty Kay.. WHAT?! You didn't cut the eyes out..
But probably my most disliked food is cheese, I love fancy cheese like brie but I can't stand tasty & chedder!
Never tried liver so I can't comment on that.

IA. If you need me, just meow..
I can't stand pork or beef. they make me gag. also Bananas. I really am not sure why bananas do though. Deer meat and any other wild game too.

Now salads and cheese, YUMMY! I could sit and eat them all day!

I'm not that picky either JasmineCat, as a matter of fact you can call me a fellow foodie too, the foods I listed above (rubber mushrooms and olives), I'll try it, and don't turn much of anything down. To me, half the fun of life is trying new foods, and with a husband who has a background in commercial cooking, loves to try new recipes and watches too much Food Network, I get to do a lot of it sometimes ! Also explains why I'm not skinny !

I cant eat sandwiches. Everytime I try they make me gag. All because when I was 5 I ate a sandwiche and it came straight up again - and now as a 29 year old the thought still makes me gag.

I can eat rolls or toasted sandwiches but not plain everyday ones... my mother still laughs about it to this day
