    Calves' liver. Just can't do it. Grandma tried to make me eat some as a kid. I threw up the one bite she convinced me to take.

    Other livers and offal I like, or at least simply severely dislike (hello, kidney) rather than having instant nausea.

    Shrimp. Rest of the family loves it. Every time my husband orders it a different way in a restaurant he'd keep saying, "try it this way, you'll like it this time." No, I don't. Looks like a bug, feels like I'm chewing on a lump of fat cut off a pork chop, tastes like death. Stop asking.

    This thread makes me so glad I am not at all picky. I eat everything.

    Any seafood other than tinned tuna. So wish I did but the smell and taste makes me feel sick. I can't tell you how many chickens I get though on a holiday when my partner eats nothing but fish.

    We are like opposites. I love pretty much ALL fish other than canned tuna.

    Sweet potatoes. Oh my god, horrible.

    I don't like canned sweet potatoes AT ALL (in fact am not a fan of most canned veggies except corn and tomatoes...) but fresh baked yams/sweet potatoes...mmm.mmmm.

    Sweet potatoes.

    I had never had a whole one before and the Christmas before last a friend brought me one to work. I didn't realize it was rotten and ate it. I got so sick the next day that I had to call into work for the first time in four years. From that day forward I can never even imagin one without wanting to puke.

    This made me laugh out loud!!

    There isn't much I don't eat. I don't particularly like raw onions, but I'll eat them if I have to. I'm not a very picky eater, but my husband and son are. They won't eat anything!! So hard to cook when I want to try all kinds of new things, and they just want the same old boring stuff all the time...Sigh!

    Every second time I pull up this thread there's a light mayo ad on the sidebar. Because mayo seems to show up on so many "nope" lists this makes me giggle.

    In general I am not a fan of mayo, but I do like a little bit of it on a tomato sandwich or on a BLT, but only a very little bit. I also like it for potato salad or cole slaw, but that's it.

    When I see people slather it on or the glob that's plopped on a Whopper if they forget that I asked for it WITHOUT MAYO...I want to barf.

    So by default Cole Slaw
    Brussels sprouts
    Asparagus (I only have to smell it cooking to gag)
    Eggplant
    Large chunks of onion (small and diced is OK)

    Hahaha. My sister used to get a big glob on a knife and then lick it. So nasty.


    I also don't like *any* salad dressings, except for the vinaigrette at Texas Roadhouse.

    Yeah, those associations can be hard to get over. The only time I ever vomited in school (which of course was humiliating) was when I was 7 after eating some peach cobbler (or "peach cobbler") at lunch, and I was unable to eat anything peach (including peaches) until my 20s. Very happy I got over it eventually, as peaches are now one of my favorite fruits (and I can make a pretty good peach cobbler).

    over cooked spinach makes me want to puke. It is so mushy and it actually tastes like dirt. I know that cooking it makes it better (because the nutrients are more digestible) but it really is a fine line between slightly cooked and like eating wet grass.
