Things that taste bad

I have a problem with swelling in one foot.
I was advised to find a diruetic to help.
I decided to go the natural route and use a diruetc tea.

Well, it is working, I've had minimal to no swelling since I started my morning and even tea.

But man this stuff is awful.
I was asked by Jeremy how bad it was, the only description I could offer was that it tastes like sweetened dirt, with cloves.

What less than savory things have you tasted, and how would you descibe the flavor?

Yuck! Nothing in particular in coming to mind, but your description is enough to make me never try that tea, lol!

I can't stand the taste of Nyquil cough syrup or beer.

I can't stand the taste of wine...I don't get how people love it so much, it's so bitter.

Liver.........its absolutely DISGUSTING in taste. I will eat, or at least try, just about anything.....but NO LIVER for ME.

Winter Hawk

Tuna. Yuck. Even the smell of it is horrid! DD loves tuna, and one day she was going on and on about how delicious it is, so I tasted it-blech!

I would like to know what tea you are using as a diuretic. I am supposed to be on a low sodium diet for my blood pressure, but sometimes I overdo it, and swell up. A sip of dirt-clove tea might help me, too. Can't be as bad as tuna, can it? (But don't you wish you could put it in a capsule and swallow it without tasting the tea?!?)

For me it's got to be Wasabi and the sushi too. Sorry but it's just not the stuff for me!

Um, green peppers. I honestly have no idea why anybody would willingly eat green peppers. It tastes like... torture. Or actually vomit when you're hungover and try to eat a big breakfast. Even the smell makes me gag.
I don't know what it is, I know some people who just think green peppers taste sort of sweet, but not like anything at all. To me they have a very very strong taste and it is the most unpleasant one on earth.

Dirt-clove tea....
I hate the taste and smell of Amoxicillin pills....reminds me of when I had those chewable kind as a kid...

I can only eat them raw. If they're cooked,

Fish.... any kind of fish... which is odd because I LIKE the smell, but then when I eat it.... ugh

Well the brand is Yogi Tea (they're all organic) and it's their Detox tea.
If you cannot find it locally, look for any herbal tea with dandelion root as that is the diuretic ingredient.

I agree on Liver, cavier. oysters are awful too!!
Escargot (snails) its like chewing on rubber erasers!
The liquer Jagermeister -its tastes like cough syrup!!

People have capsicum for breakfast? LMAO!

Sushi..good god. That combination of mouse poo and seaweed..EWWWWWW!

for me it is cough surup

Ladies for those needing a dieretic try this ( it is low cal low sodium tastes great and is all natural and you likely have some on hand all the time)

2 tablespoons lemon juice to 6-8 ounces h2o and sweeten to taste

I rarely dislike food. I am pretty tolerant.

The last icky thing I had was probably the liver detox tea.

Aloe leaves. My grandma would give them to me as a child to induce vomiting (she'd peel them, and on top of tasting horrible, they had a slimy, snot-like texture), and every time after the first time, she'd literally have to chase me and hold me down to get them into my mouth.

She had an odd obsession with "purging", and would also dump two heaping tablespoons of epsom salts into our (my cousins' and mine) hot chocolate at least once a week because she thought it kept us regular. That would be a close 2nd on the "worst flavor" list: epsom-heavy hot chocolate.

Lima beans,beets & liver-Yuk!!!!

Buckley's cough syrup, or any kind of cough syrup. Cheddar cheese is pretty nasty too. I despise dark chocolate, yet I'll still eat it. I am so weird.
