Slippery, pulpy fruits -- apricots, peaches, and other stonefruit. The mouthfeel just turns me off.
Veal, especially really young veal. The meat's so tender, I can't forget that I'm eating babies. Something that was born, maybe lived a few minutes, and was slaughtered.
Eggplant -- okay, if you slice it thin, dip it in batter, and deep-fry it, it tastes okay. But so would practically anything else you did that to... Other than that, it's got nothing going for it -- taste, texture, anything.
Turnips -- like a really tasteless potato, but with an awful, watery texture as well.
Most franchise fast-food; overly salted, artificial-tasting, greasy. Now that I'm older, that kind of food usually makes me feel bad, too.
Hot dogs, turkey franks, etc. Used to love them, but like I said I'm older now and about 90 percent of the calories come from fat. They're like lead in my stomach.
