Bananas in anything other than a peel. Even the smell of banana bread makes me feel yucky. I know why.. When I was little my mom had to give me some medicine that was banana flavored, it was an awful taste, and we even tried mixing it with chocolate. Ever since then I won't touch anything mixed with banana. I have no problem just eating the fruit though.
No other foods come to mind, I've got 0 desire to eat escargot. I will eat broccoli but can't stand the smell of it cooking, especially a lot of it at a hospital or cafeteria.

I love sushi! I'm kinda upset that I won't be allowed to have it when/if I get pregnant sometime.

If you ever crack open a benadryl tablet, do not taste it, it is so gross. I don't really like the taste of the capsule either. I also tried the lysine once in the powder form (I was trying to open a stuck shut gel cap with my teeth). That was pretty gross.

When my brother had tonsilitis about eight years ago, he had banana flavoured medicine. I wanted to taste some, so I did. I wonder if it's dangerous to have tonsilitis medicine when you're not the sick one..

If you cannot find it locally, look for any herbal tea with dandelion root as that is the diuretic ingredient.
Oh my gosh! THAT is the tea you hate?? I LOOOVE that tea! LOL

I never knew it was a diuretic though! I really need one. I will have to try it. How often do you take it? Can you tell a difference? How long does it take to work?

I just use it like I do any other tea, when I have a cold or something. If it really works that well, I will have to start using it reguarly. I like thier fasting tea too.



Let me know how you like how it works!

Dandelion root is indeed a diuretic


I only drink one cup in the morning and one in the evening.
I noticed the swlling going away at the end of the first day.

As far as how quickly it works...well, I was blessed with bad genes and I have a small and weak bladder to begin with, so I have no clue


Sorry for the TMI

Watermelon! I absolutely detest the stuff, and hate the smell of it as well
If I'm eating candy and accidentally eat a watermelon flavored one I spit it out immediately!

I dont like Icecream unless its lemon gelati,
I wont eat most types of fish, or beef, or most meats for that matter!
Liver has a disgusting texture, i think anyone who can eat Liver can also eat a Placenta! :barfs:

I also dont like most alcohol because it burns my throat and its too bitter.

I also dont like very thick soup, it feels like flem or snot!

I think the texture and aftertaste of Liver is HORRIBLE. It makes me gag.

Umm. I am not sure that there is much more that I hate. MAYBE the taste of Kava Kava. BLEH, tastes like dirt. LITTERALLY!

Unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the
Baking powder tastes awful. But I guess I had to try it once to be sure


I also really hate the taste of cough syrup... tastes like liquid Vicks

I'd rather cough than drink that stuff (which doesn't even work anyways!)

Oh and that "vanilla and spice" body butter from the Body Shop smells awesome but it tastes horrible!! (I didn't try it on purpose, I swear)
