    According to my mom I don't eat onions due to the fact I ate onion sandwiches with my dad as a little girl and refused to touch them in later years after he died. Could be true, dunno. I do know the very smell of them raw makes me gag let alone bite into one...especially when it is unexpected...which fortunately doesn't happen often, 'cause I smell'em "a mile away." blech

    First time I ever tried shrimp, I got a bad one & was sick later, and the next time I tried them I was at red lobster & they were so overdone you could have bounced them across the table, so until recently, I've not been able to even consider them. Salmon is another one, because I couldn't get the memory of the smell of canned salmon when mom used to make salmon patties for dad when I was little. Fresh salmon smells nothing like that, so I now will eat it

    I still have issues with some shrimp... mainly if they're not fried. Bad mexican shrimp quesadilla once.... *shiver*

    McDonalds' food. I had a McFlurry or sundae or whatever there and promptly got gastroenteritis. The smell of the restaurant makes me feel sick.

    Oh, and I've never liked cheese, apparently because when I was little I tried some strong cheese and went completely off it.:)

    And apple vodka (consequently, anything apple flavoured, even lip balm). This one is pretty self-explanatory...

    Milk. When I was a kid we had a carton and these strange looking chunks came out onto the cereal. When my mom looked into the carton there was a rat spine in it and chunks of rat meat. I will never forget what that looked like.

    I can't drink a glass of milk and I can only handle it in a bowl of cereal with so much sugar that it doesn't taste like milk.

    This happened to me but with Mexican food. I went to this popular Mexican restaurant in my town and had the most delicious burrito, nachos, etc. But when I got back home, something didn't feel right and I ended up having the most worst stomach virus. I was sick for a week. Now, the smell of any Mexican food and the spices just gets me nauseous and it sucks because I loved Mexican food. I tried eating it few months ago, didn't go well. I couldn't even swallow it :/

    Looking back, I suspect I had food poisoning a lot as a child. Random vomiting could not have been that normal.

    Only food that ever got "ruined" like that was Sunchips.

    for the longest time i could not eat eggplant (i had a bad stomach bug, this is gross but if i get sick in the middle of the night i do not wake up and throw up on myself). i woke up when i was 19 in a pile of eggplant that came up, took me about 5 years to be able to eat it again.
    pene alla vodka i couldn't eat for the longest either. i got wasted one day with my best friend, we made penne alla vodka late at night, hadn't eaten all day so i ate 2 bowls of it. in mid sentence sitting at the table i threw up all over myself, didn't get it anywhere else though. then continued on with my conversation. took me sometime to be able to eat that again to.


    Ummmmm...

    pop tarts,

    I haven't been able to eat one (and keep one down) since I was in grade school.

    I have tried all different kinds, same result.

    The same thing happens when I eat Menudo.

    Anything with artificial raspberry flavor.
    Actually.. Not ruined, I still have it. I don't really care where the flavor came from.
