    Cauliflower and broccoli - bland boringness. I do force them down from time to time, but have never liked them from childhood. Even my mother calling them "trees" didn't make them any more appealing to me.

    I used to agree, but I've found a fantastic way to make them more interesting. A bit of olive oil, black pepper and a little salt, and then lots of freshly grated parmigiano cheese over the top. Roast in the oven until it gets dark brown. Fantastic to sprinkle on a nice veggie soup or something. I also love pureeing boiled broccoli and/or cauliflower to make soups. It's all in the seasoning.

    Sorry for the thread hijack. I actually can't think of anything I really hate... As I've learned to cook a lot of the things I used to dislike in more interesting ways, I've found that they don't taste bad, I was just used to bad cooking.

    I love raw veggies, but hate almost any vegetable cooked. Limp and yucky! I prefer the crunch.
    I hate mushrooms. The smell of them cooking, ugh.

    There's not much I won't eat, but here's some that I should eat more of but don't really enjoy:

    Beans - bland, pasty texture like packing material. Tinned are better than dried, and they are OK if highly flavoured/made it into a hummus-type thing/etc.

    Cottage cheese - I keep telling myself I like it, but I don't. It has an "empty" sour taste of not enough fat and salt.

    Fish - I love really fresh fish, but rarely get the chance to eat it. Supermarket "fresh" fish tastes as if it's going off. Tinned fish is better, but I'm not wild about it, and it's so expensive!

    Sweet potato. Sweet. Potato. It just feels wrong. I can eat some sweet veg (carrots), but this is just too sweet for a vegetable.

    Linseed/ flax seed - tastes like oil paint thinner.

    I wouldn't classify it as a super food... but Greek yogurt really gives me the creeps. No matter what flavor or brand I try, it always tastes like bile...

    Edit: *wouldn't

    Melons, turnips, baked beans, barbecue sauce/barbecue flavored things. No thank you.

    People always seem to assume I won't eat much because I'm a vegetarian, but those are the only foods that I can't take, just because of themselves. Other things I don't eat because of my beliefs, or because they're cooked badly or something.

    I also agree with those who hate celery. Even when I was a little preschool kid and they gave it to us loaded up with peanut butter it was still gross. And all those annoying strings. Basically it makes an excellent plate for a quick peanut butter snack as long as you don't try to eat the plate!

    Fruit. I will eat any vegetable under the sun (except the fruits that masquerade as veg, deceptive little ****ers) but even the thought of eating fresh fruit makes me queasy.

    Sounds like me! I do not like fruit. The texture of just about every fruit makes me gag. I love veggies -- none I won 't eat. But fruit -- YUCK!
