foods you don't like now
i was thinking about foods that i don't currently like and won't eat and why.
i won't eat pork. i was raised jewish and kept kosher (no pork for me!!!) and did have pork for the first time till i was a late teen. i thought it was rather repulsive. but i know so many people that love it, i think it's one of those things that you have to eat growing up, otherwise you just don't like very much (not all pork products, for me, it was ham and i hated it, but i hear bacon is really good). anyways, i still don't eat pork because of having ham a few times. what foods don't you like and why? oh, i also hate mushrooms. i'm fine with them if they're chopped up nice and small, but otherwise they freak me out with that whole frilly thing going on under the top. |

junk food in general, the whole proccessed flavour is really no good. ick. as a kid i really liked it, but mostly because it was never in the house and everyone else ate it. But in retrospect, it was a good thing because i have a great diet now without any major struggles. Thanks mom and dad!

Same thing with me. It's most sweets. For example I used to love Cinnamon Rolls but now they just too much sweet for me it's kind of overwhelming. But actual food now I can't get enough of...excuse me while I eat this pizza

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. |

i find myself eating everything that i refused to eat as a child these days... i suppose thats maturity... (not likely...haha)...
the only exceptions to this rule is Vegemite and Bananas. Being as Aussie, this is considered very very strange.

I don't like cheese for one, but only when it's by itself. I can eat cheeseburgers, mac & cheese, cheese on sandwiches, etc, but I can't stand the idea of cheese by itself like when you eat it on a toothpick or anything like that.
Aside for that, I don't THINK I like asparagus, but it's been many years since I've tried it so who knows now. Other oddities as far as my eating habits, I'm VERY picky about fat on my meat and I also don't like to let my food touch whenever I have control over it. At Thanksgiving dinner I'll literally fill up my plate a few different times to have all the food this way I don't have to have it touch Oh yeah, and I'm not a huge fan of oriental food. I don't like the texture, I don't like most of the vegetables, and I don't like the ways in which it's prepared. If anything, I like Japanese food, but most any other oriental foods are pretty much out of the question except for a few select meals.

When I was a kid there were several things I would not eat, now that I am old I like pretty much everything (I am 40 lbs overweight).
The only things I don't like are fresh fruits...don't know why. I love vegetables and one fruit, the tomato

wow... this is my thread.
right off the bat, I won't eat: squash, zuccini, brussel sprouts, pickles, asparagus, spinach, ANY melons, snails, cabbage, olives, mushrooms, bell peppers, ketchup, mustard, mayo, capers, black and white jellybeans, black licorice, liver, or ANY seafood (if it lived in water, i'm not touching it). on some stranger notes: - I hate whole tomatoes or large pieces of it, i'll only tomatoes if they're finely diced and mixed with other stuff (like in chili) or when it's in a sauce - I can chew on oranges until the juice is gone, but i can't eat the pulp. - I'll eat banannas, but i won't let them touch my lips. banannas make my lips itchy. - I only eat grape jelly or jam. no strawberry, boysenberry, rasberry, or orange marmalade. only grape. - I don't like veggies on my pizza or my burgers. only meat and cheese on either. - I don't like baked potatoes, but i'll eat boiled or mashed potatoes. - like tomatoes, onions have to be very finely diced or i'll turn the food away. I won't eat large ieces of onion. I've always been a picky eater, much to the chagrin of my folks, but i suppose i've gotten along with it fine for this long, i'll just keep going with it. however... some things that i never used to touch are now just fine... I used to never eat salads, celery, or peas, but will now.

I honestly can't think of anything I don't like. The closest I get to hating any type of food is tripe, but I have had it prepared in a way that wasn't too bad. I dunno, as I grew up I started to enjoy more and more different types of foods and now I'll eat almost anything. My six-year old girls probably eat more things than the average person, I think that's because their dad likes everything
They love sushi, pickled herring, raw oysters, caviar, liver, Indian curries, etc....I'm so proud of them

Hmm where to begin. I'm a very picky eater and there are so many foods I just don't like. Almost all vegetables. I don't like broccoli, cauliflower, squash, spinich, carrots, radishes, onioins, peppers, pickles, zuccini, brussel sprouts, cucumbers, cabbage, olives, mushrooms, turnips, eggplants and I'm probably forgetting some. The only kind of beans I like are green beans. The only kind of potatoes I like are the instant kind out of a box. I like a lot more fruits than vegetables but I won't eat any kind of melon, it makes me feel like throwing up. I also don't like tomatoes. I don't like oatmeal, most cereals, pretty much all condiments like ketchup, mustard, relish, horseradish, etc. In addition to all of this, I'm a vegetarian so I don't eat any meat or food with gelatin in it. That eliminates meat, marshmallows, pop-tarts, jello and other such foods. There were some meat products that I never liked at all like bologna, hot dogs and any type of seafood. So that's what I come up with, although I'm sure I'm missing quite a few foods.

Mushrooms, especially the pasty ones on salad bars.
Fish (except a good tuna salad sandwich) Cauliflower. Cauliflower is evil. Peppers give me heartburn. Bean sprouts. Eeyew. Spermy-looking little stringy things. Liver. Foie gras. Nasty.

Pickles/relish are too sour and even when I pick them off my food, the juices still linger and totally ruin the flavor of my otherwise perfect meal. There is also a particular kind of squash or melon that I don't like eating or smelling because it makes me want to vomit, but I can't remember the name. It's orange in color and has a texture similar to mangos. Might be apricots but I'm not sure. I use to dislike eggplants, but only if they are prepared in such a way that makes it unappetizing (it's been a while and I've since forgotten what it was that made me decide that I hated the stuff). I love everything else, and will try something new at least once. Maybe twice.

I have no qualms about eating most things... but there are a few that I avoid like the plague.
- Fast food junk, for obvious reasons, including chips, popcorn, etc. - Meat dishes where I can tell what part of the animal that was. I am a bloodthirsty carnivore, and will gleefully devour helpless baby animals while they are still warm from their mother's womb, but only as long as that piece I am chewing is not a brain, liver, kidney, heart, eye, tongue, testicle, or intestine. Any recognizible part of the anatomy makes me wanna puke.

I don't much like ham myself either. I don't know why... We usually have it on Christmas or Thanksgiving etc, but I never much like it, especially compared to Turkey.
Mushrooms I don't really care for, but theres worse I suppose. On most pizzas they're mostly tasteless for instance, but I still don't like the texture to them. Onions I don't like. Onion rings are great. I don't much care for Fish either. But at the same time, there are many different kinds of fish and many ways to prepare. Some is better then others, some I can't stand though. Lets see what else... I'm not big on cake, and rarely would eat it at a party, but I don't exactly dislike it I suppose.

Fruits/Vegatables - Dont like squash, zuccinni, cooked peas, cooked carrots, turnips, radishes, olives, celery, brussel sprouts, asparagas. I dont like raw carrots alot and uncooked peas. Steamed veggies are OK, too.
I dont like any "salad" made with mayo: i.e. potato salad, tuna salad, chicken salad, etc. I dont like oatmeal. I think it is the texture. I dont like raw tomatos, but I like everything they come in like salsa, ketchup, soups, chilis, etc. I wont eat a burger that has been tainted with pickles. The juice cant be take away. I think that is about it. |

I don't like tomatoes, peas (cooked), zucchini, rutabega, eggplant, organ meat, and most cassarole-type dishes (except Hamburger Helper). Marshmallows and chunks of fruit should be kept away from Jell-o. The smell of saurkraut, asparagus, or spinach cooking will trigger my gag reflex. On more than one occasion I've had to hurry (no running in the house) out of my grandmother's kitchen, when she was cooking one of these three, in order to avoid vomiting on the kitchen floor. Most vegetables taste a lot better raw than cooked (peas, for instance). I've never had opportunity to try sushi, snails, tripe, caviar, mangos, or papaya, and I'm in no hurry to. Don't like seafood. Don't like most oriental food other than rice and stir-fried meat.
