Any foods you've sworn off for life?
Replies

I sworn off all seafood after I tried some. I hate seafood and will never eat it again. Yuck! However, I haven't banned any fattening, yummy food for weight loss reasons and I never will. I don't eat them all the time but I don't deprive myself either.
Well that's not totally true. I did swear off soda and fruit drinks considering how bad they are for you, both for teeth and weight.0 -
I'm another celiac who swore off gluten.
Soda. It's a trigger for me.0 -
I haven't sworn any foods off but there is a lot of things I don't eat now simply because I don't crave them or they just don't taste good to me anymore since I haven't ate it in years. Such as hamburgers, soda, hotdogs, fries etc. the one thing I probably will never have again though is soda or juice. I haven't had it in like 5 years. I only drink water & I don't miss it at all0

Fugu. I'm way too scared to ever try it.0

Dairy Queen soft serve and anything that contains it. Makes me violently ill - or at least it did when I was in college. I haven't had any after the 3rd try when it was absolutely clear that it was in fact the Dairy Queen that was the problem. And a single bite was too much.
Anything else is up for debate. Tastes change over time, and things I hate on their own can be delicious (or at least tolerable) cooked in different ways.
Yeah I'm probably never having Rita's again after I had some last year and ended up spending the rest of the day in the bathroom.
Also, pizza hut. It was nasty and I could FEEL the sodium for 2 days afterwards. Same with Smashburger, although that was tasty... but just not worth the horrible feeling for the next two days. To be fair, I guess that anything more than 2 slices of pizza make me feel bad from the sodium now (yet I have no problem eating most restaurants' food, go figure).0 -
Poor quality fast food/chocolate/alcohol etc.0

I wouldn't say sworn off but foods I find myself turning down often enough its been YEARS since i've had it:
Cheesecake (though this had to be a favorite dessert for years)
Restaurant tortillas (most dishes I ask to alter in one way, shape or form)
High-fructose sodas
Chips Ahoy (If I need a cookie I go for the real thing)
Swiss Cake rolls (I bet it tastes like plastic to me now)
McDonald's chicken nuggets
Hot dogs/brats

Like many others on this thread, I've only sworn off the foods that will kill me.
I have designated some foods as special treats, though. I have them less frequently than I used to, and that actually has increased my enjoyment of those foods when I have them.0 -
Pasta, bread, loaded Pop (full sugar). Any potato that isn't a sweet tater. Almost all fast foods.0
-
No-bake peanut butter cookies, but not because of weight loss, it's because I ate 16 of them and made myself sick. (I was 8 years old, to be fair)oyChihuahua wrote: »Tequila. Multiple times.
Just the once for me. I tried it again 15 years later and couldn't do it, insta-gag response0 -

My grandma used to make lutefisk every year at Christmas. It was so foul smelling I never tried it and don''t think I ever could. She also used to make lefse. I miss her lefse so much!0 -
Hm. I'd be glad if I never tasted vegemite again.0

Mushrooms- because they are a fungus and gross....0
-
I eat everything in moderation except foods I dislike and cauliflower is disgusting!!!!!0

For life? Well, that's sad.0 -

Grocery store hot dogs because I hate boiling them and the sticky film they leave in plastic baggies kinda grosses me out.
Los Cucos because a bad shrimp quesadilla left me with a stomach virus for a week and it's hard for me to get over it.
Blue Bell ice cream because I've found better ice creams and am a little wary after everything that came out after the recall

Fast food value meals. I seriously doubt I'll ever order one again. I can see a small fry with a healthy sandwhich maybe, but not a burger or entire meal. Just knowing how many calories I've swallowed over the Years from that crap food makes me sick.0
-
Nothing really. At least, I hope I never have to swear off something for the rest of my life. And I hope that one day my medical condition goes into remission so I can have a bunch of foods I miss again.0
-
Mushrooms, olives, cottage cheese, escargot. . . all foods that make me gag.0
-
Medium rare chicken.0
-
Meat, but it has nothing to do with weight loss.0
-
Grapefruit. Tastes like vomit to me.0
-
Ice cream... Not because of the calories, but because I really don't like ice cream. All my life I kept trying it and trying it because everyone said it was so good and it's really not. So I won't eat it again.0

No.

Regular sodas and beer... beer has got to be one of the most disgusting drinks ever. I wanna throw up every time I've tasted it. I'm quite happy I dont like it. Oh and grapefruit... blerghh, I cant stand bitter anything0

lima beans...seriously ick
Eggplant, I've tried too many times and it is a slimy mess. OR it is breaded and fried and therefore, not a good option
Okra...see above slime comment!
raw oysters...again, slime
that is the quick and dirty list!0 -
canned vegetables because...ewwww0

Soda. Cola. Anything with artificial sweetener or that claims to be diet.
My mom developed dementia. She lived off diet soda in a can. Not only do studies show that the artificial sweeteners contribute to it, but also the aluminum from the can contributes to memory loss.0
