    Wow!! Sorry to offend your kitchen. But seriously, if I'm eating anything and notice bits of mushroom, I pick out as many as I possibly can.

    Also mushroom flavored stuff leaves a taste in my mouth, and a feeling in my stomach a long while after.

    Anyway, you enjoy!!

    That's how I feel about lima beans. They have no place in a frozen "mixed vegetables" package.

    Have you tried an anti-fungal? ;)

    One of my cats may oppose that. His name is Truffle and not named after the chocolate kind. :wink:

    S'ok. It just means more for me. Mushrooms are one of my favorites things ever. Be sure to send yours my way. :smiley:

    Yes! Like drinking sweat.

    There was a nasty Spearmint water I tried a few years ago. It tasted like water that was mixed with used spearmint chewing gum.

    Kale . . . I know it's good for you, but it tastes terrible!! I have tried to like it, but I just can't. BLECK.

    Creamed vegetables . . . especially creamed corn. GROSS. It smells terrible, looks terrible, tastes terrible. I don't get it.

    Creamed corn out of a can is gross. Real creamed corn (real corn sauteed and served in a cooked down cream sauce), is delicious.

    I also have a huge love of creamed spinach. It might actually be one of my desert island foods.

    You know, I'll bet a person could take some carrot cake, brush it with rum, layer it with cream cheese and/or mascarpone whipped with heavy cream, in a sort of tiramisu fashion, and really have something there.

    Hmmm. Idea: Carrot Rum Cake!

    Been done. As good as it sounds.

    That said, I still prefer keeping them separate.

    • Salted licorice? Got it.
    • "Sweet" licorice? Check.
    • Licorice in Chocolate bars.

    Welcome to my licorice hell.

    I loathe licorice. The only thing remotely licorice flavored I can handle are anise flavored pizelles, and I haven't had them in years since I was diagnosed with celiac disease. And I think I used to like them more for the nostalgia factor than the actual taste. My grandmother made really good pizelles.

    Ouzo.

    Liver

    Liver smells disgusting while cooking. Cooking at a local diner when I was younger made it so I never tried liver until last year. It's actually pretty good, if cooked properly. And with onions.

    I think Peeps are disgusting and stick to your teeth way too much.

    Pigs feet date back to slavery in the south when the owners would give the slaves the parts of the animal they wouldn't eat themselves.

    A culture of cooking evolved around preparing these things for consumption and still exists today.

    There use to be some kind of lunch meat with pasta in <yuk>
    Those Strawberry marshmellow candies, taste like straight red food colouring.
    Marzipan.... not my thing.

    And...
    Beef pizzles
    Hog maws
    Pigs ears

    I've seen some nasty stuff floating in jars of brine in many corner stores and delis growing up down South. And wondered how long they've been there. :s

    Chitterlings are intestines. Pork rinds are fried pig skin. Maybe you're thinking crackling.

    Beef pizzles

    oh my. okay, first i will mention the time a very nice, very worried-looking, very respectable middle-aged middle eastern man accosted me in the pan-asian supermarket and said 'please, do you know what part of the animal is this word?' and of course i read the label on the styropak thing he was showing to me and of course it said 'beef pizzle'.

    and of course i chickened out. i felt bad about not being more helpful because honestly, most of the time i will go out of my way for newer canadians. but not this time; i could not.

    then i'll just . . . . leave this here. because this is what the post-encounter googling brought me straight to.

    you're all welcome.

    Yup...you would be right! Anything that poop is encased in is disgusting!
    How would someone in history ever look at intestines filled with poo and say....wow that looks yummy :s

    You do know what the words 'natural casing' on packages of bratwursts, Italian sausages, Frankfurters, breakfast links, etc means right? You never eat any of those? Ever? It would make me so sad to never have a bratwurst again. :disappointed:

    I love liquor filled candy. I get the really strong ones sent to me from friends in Europe. It's like a shot of vodka right down the gullet
