    All vegetables. I keep trying to eat them but they are so gross. Of course I like corn and potatoes but a big. Nono for me. Oh and I like ice berg. Even Thoth it doesn't have any nutritional value.

    Oatmeal of any kind. It's the texture.

    I can't stand beets! When I was a kid my parents would give us stuff like canned beets, canned spinache and frozen Brussels sprouts.
    I now love spinache, fresh in my salad and love fresh, steamed Brussels sprouts but have still not been able to get myself to try beets, just the smell of them makes me gag.
    I am gonna try giving quinoa a try though, I have never had it before and just read all of its health benefits, fingers crossed that I like it :)

    Heath food is a myth.

    An individual item of food can be neither healthy or unhealthy. Food cannot be separated from the context of diet. Broccoli is "good for you", Pop Tarts are "bad for you". Try to live on solely one or the other, and you'll live longer if you pick the Pop Tarts.

    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.

    These are mine/: I do not want them smothered in cheese, I do not want them lightly steamed, boiled, raw, roasted or sauteed and in my mouth.
    And green peppers, they ruin anything they come in contact with.

    Fish
    Chicken
    Turkey

    Of course, to be fair, none of the above has ever passed my lips. True that! I am 62 years old and have never once tasted fish, chicken, or turkey, and I have no plans to start now. I also eat very little meat; pork, beef, etc. If food ever had a face or a mother, I can't bring myself to eat it...and if I 'do,' it has to be so well done that it doesn't even resemble meat. Basically, it has to 'crunch,' like crispy bacon. :bigsmile:

    I do love my fruit and veggies, although someone once tried to talk me into tasting durian. Ugh, just thinking about the smell of that vile fruit gives me palpitations. :sick:

    My 10th grade health teacher saying that STDs look like cauliflower didn't help either....

    Try mashed cauliflower with some laughing cow cheese... yum yum!

    Or broccoli steamed for a REALLY long time with lemon pepper and red pepper flakes.

    bananas - I just can't understand how anyone can eat them

    raw tomatoes - I don't like the texture...too wet and juicy

    cottage cheese- I have never eaten it actually but it looks nasty

    oatmeal - I have to add tons of fresh fruits and applesauce just to get it down. It's so bland and I don't like the texture.

    melons(honeydew, watermelon, cantaloupe) - I just don't like the taste of it
