I'm SO over French Fries... Are they good? Sure, but not nearly as good as they once were. I see them, now, as sticks of crispy grease flavored like potato, and not even close to being worth the caloric count....
If I'm feeling like the crispy potato treat, I simple slice a potato - or - Zuchini into sticks, season them up, and bake them in my oven.
Guess what? Still amazingly good and soo much better for you!! = Win/Win for me
What are some healthy tricks you do to still be able to eat foods that gross you out?

I cant stand hamburgers anymore. They make me sick to my stomach. Fries aren't as good as they used to be either. I would much rather have fruit or veggies. They are just better for you and even taste better.0

Hamburger. I used to LOVE a nice big juicy hamburger with cheese, mayo, ketchup, onions - the works.
Now.. I find hamburger to be absolutely disgusting. Blech. I eat turkey burgers instead. I just like the taste more and since I buy lean turkey it is far less greasy.
And regular potato chips. Blech. The grease.
Frosting on cakes. I used to LOVE the frosting - now, I wipe it off.0 -
Any boxed rice! All I taste is salt, and its so disgusting!!! Also things like pork tenderloin, again because of all the sodium. Anything with a high salt content tends to throw me off now and gross me out.0

I hate red meat now. I eat chicken or fish. The one thing i'm trying to find a substitute for is chocolate, sometimes I crave it so much! But I haven't given in yet .0
-
Pickles. i had one slice (about mcdonalds hamburger thin) and it was so sour and salty I couldn't stand it.0
-
I agree with the hamburger folks! Even more so fast food hamburgers...blech. When I make burgers I use bison, much leaner, cleaner, and local!0
-
yep! French Fries, meat, pretty much anything really cheesy or fried... I like chips though0
-
I can't stand pop tarts anymore!!! Funny I know, but they just are not worth the calories!!! AT ALL!!! And boy oh boy I could eat me some pop tarts. ha ha ha ha
Oh and any fast food hamburger. YUCK!!!! I feel so sick after eating it. So those are out too. :P0 -
I LOVE roasted cashews and almonds. For the life of me, i have no idea how anyone can say these things can possibly be good for you. more than 6 or 7 and you have killed the calorie content for an entire meal.0

cup noodles. I used to see them as convenient, now I see them as the reason for being bloated all the time. Almost 1500 mg of sodium in that one cup!?! No thanks, I'll pass.0
-
Fries and fried chicken are the ones I can't stand. Pizza I no longer desire, although I don't hate it. But I went from a "pizza is my fave food ever" person, to a "I haven't had pizza in months and don't care to" person.0
-
Soda!!! I used to be such a Dr. Pepper addict and now I could care less to touch one!!!0
-
Beer. My fiance is into microbrews (plus he works in the food industry) and would always offer me some. I'd have half or one fairly frequently. Now I think about all of the things I'd rather "spend" my calories on.0
-
Cheese. I still love it, but man what a waste of calories!0
-
I agree with so many of these!! I can't eat McDonald's anymore at all makes me sick, hate potato chips now the grease makes me cringe, I look at pop tarts and think gross, and now I can't really drink soda anymore. I only allow myself one coke a month and even then I can barely finish a whole can... I just prefer water now to everything except iced unsweet jasmine green tea. Oh also the chocolate thing... yeah I don't think that is something I will ever look at and think gross haha. I love the Emerald 100 calorie pack cocoa roast almonds, the perfect snack at work and fulfills the chocolate craving :-)0

Sunday morning fryups. Which consist of scrambled eggs, bacon, sausages, black pudding, mushrooms, baked beans and toast which is then downed with a beer.
I can still eat it but I feel completely gross afterwards.0 -
I would have to say the thing I hate the most since starting my MFP adventure....Hot Dogs, actually I can't even stand the smell of them anymore and I have not found a substitute for them either....but since I can't stand the smell of them I guess I don't need a substitute!!
On a side note, I also stopped eating burgers but I recently discovered the Morning Star BIG Black Bean Burger...They are just as good and better for you...0 -
cakes, cookies and jelly babies!! the amount of sugar in them makes my stomach churn yuck!!0

I got myself very used to eating an extremely lean diet. I switched to ground turkey, everything baked instead of fried, dark chocolate instead of milk, etc. You name it, I went a few steps down.
Now I've converted to a vegan way of eating, so plant based protein instead of meat, steamed & baked instead of fried (however I use olive oil if I need a little crunchy something) & even vegan chocolate too. I've also switched from normal sugars to agave nectar. Almond/Soy milk instead of regular milk. Etc.
Now a days, I can't stand anything greasy (including fries, chips, cheese, pizza, burgers, etc). I also find eating any kind of meat to be very, very unappealing. Sometimes I can't even stand the smell. I don't like normal chocolate, especially milk chocolate or anything that is too sweet (including deserts, salad dressings & even orange juice). Also, I can't drink normal milk anymore either. Oh & I've also cut down greatly on my sodium intake, so if it's too salty, I really don't like it.0 -
store bought icecream, reminds me of marshmellow fluff, I love the real thing and would rather save my calories for that indulgence.0
