Olives, dates, foods with figs in them (I'm still not sure if I actually like figs or not; the first one I had tasted like mushy sweetened grass, but I seem to be okay with Fig Newtons), avocado, melon (seeing it dominate fruit salads upsets me, though), most processed foods (although I hate how salty they are, and I know they're terrible for me), marinara...
I'm sure there are others that I can't recall at the moment.
Ah, I was worried there for a second. Good thing I have no kidney problems. I didn't care for starfruit the first time I tried it, but I've been wanting to give it another shot. After all, the star is my favorite shape.
Holy crap, that looks tooth-achingly tasty.
Actually, I guess it wasn't a pasta thing. I can't really remember exactly what it was. A steamer?
This = YAY
They even kept all the old submissions - except for that pasta thing. Maybe that's what got them in trouble.
Sigh. If only I could get taro and black sesame ice cream out here in California (well, I think I could, but I have no idea where to look). I love both flavors.
WANT. I love zongzi to bits.
Grah, now I'm really craving one.
Go go bacon doughnut. Those things are awesome.
That ? Block is really tiny.
Doesn't matter. I still wish I could eat it.
Sugar. My favorite is slightly lemony and dipped in moderately large grains of sugar. I also like snickerdoodles. However, I have yet to try baking them; I've made a lot of "meh" chocolate chip cookies, though.
My boyfriend considers sugar cookies worthless. I am determined to prove him wrong.
Hmmm...I'm like that with:
zucchini
cantaloupe and honeydew
skirt steak
onions (although that's more in the hate category)
green pepper
Hillary
Chew on That
Steak ( but I love burgers. Weird...)
Yellow squash
Cake. Any cake. Yuck.
Wonder Bread
Raw tomatoes
Any sushi with softshell crab or octupus
Whiskey or bourbon
hot dogs. if i am hungry enough and it is the only option, ill eat them. but other than that i tend to stay away from them.
milk. i eat in in cereal and i love most dairy products, but drinking milk disgusts me.
Raw tomatoes; I'd rather they be cooked but I won't go picking them out of salads
Candy that's not chocolate (although if it's licorice I will definitely avoid it)
Sour cream and onion chips
Beer
Pesto
Street meat, aka sausage on a bun
Pineapple
Raw carrots -- love 'em cooked, can't stand 'em raw
Most melons -- cantalope, water, honeydew
Beets
Lima beans
Orange Juice (unless it is freshly squeezed)
Definitely Tex Mex. I grew up on Mexican food, so all of my friends want to take me to "Mexican" restaurants and I have learned to just think of enchiladas with cheddar cheese as part of another cuisine.
Huh...
I guess, not being all that picky to begin with, and being *fairly* open to new foods, this for me is a non-issue.
There are plenty of things I choose not to buy/cook/prepare, for health, moral, green or other reasons, but when handed those foods elsewhere, without the ability to pick and choose (buffet style etc.) I will eat most anything but those I have moral issues with. They may not be great, but they are edible.
Like if my in-laws hand me an overdone burger with american cheese on wonder bread and an iceberg salad I will eat it. I won't like it much, but it is not so repugnant I can't eat it. I would rather have juices left in my meat, dark greens, grains and a tastier cheese, but it is not the end of the world by any means.
I have just a small handful of foods I won't eat at all, so I get off easy on this one, thank goodness.
Lamb, duck and lobster...I have no fondness for any of them, but if it is what the host is serving, so be it.
Fungus...seriously - once in a blue moon I will buy some white buttons, trying again to understand the adoration some seem to have for these things. I'll slice them into a salad, and it's "OK". I'm not as fanatical as I once was - not ordering any dish that contained mushrooms. But, if the pieces are too large and rubbery, off to the side they go. I kind of like the flavor - I have had some great cream of mushroom soups that were pureed to the point of no chunks. I just really hate the texture. Or rather - I've probably been exposed to too many nasty, rubbery versions that I can't get past those memories.
chinese food.
the american kind that is, i'd really like to try some authentic stuff but have not had the chance yet
I asked my husband this question, since I couldn't wrap my head around what I actually tolerate. He said, "You're pretty stubborn, so I can't think of anything. You either eat it because you love it, or don't eat it at all." I responded, "True."
Reading the responses sort of lit the way to my middle ground on what I tolerate:
- wheat, rye, pumpernickel, etc. bread -- I only enjoy sour dough and Italian bread, and it has to be baked same-day
- bread crusts
- peas
- frozen and canned carrots
- all chocolates with cocoa
- various cheeses. I will not eat stinky cheeses like blue cheese, parmesan, romano, etc.
- battered and deep fried seafood -- what a waste of perfectly good seafood...unless it wasn't from the start!
- medium rare steaks, but that's about as cooked as I'll go with my steaks; otherwise, it gets sent back
- a few preparations of duck and chicken, but not all. I won't eat turkey.
- bacon
- yogurt
- milk to drink
- egg whites (I LOVE yolks, usually throw away the whites)
- garlic and onions, only if it's been cooked thoroughly and pretty much pulverized, otherwise NO
- dried parsley is tolerable, fresh isn't
- tripe
