    I may bring some wrath on my head, but:

    Turkey bacon. And I got the good brand name turkey bacon. Not only was it hard to cook, but it had a stringy, overly processed texture and had no real flavor to it. NEVER AGAIN! It's back bacon all the way now, lol!

    Oh, the turkey bacon thing is disheartening. :( I was all set to try it out.

    We had some at IHOP a few weeks ago, and my daughter (who won't eat anything that threatens to be healthy) and my mother (who makes fun of every healthy food I choose to eat) BOTH liked it.

    Maybe it was just the brand?

    I avoid pork for religious reasons perhaps its the way I was raised but I love turkey bacon so does my hubby who didn't eat it before me but a lot of people don't try it its a person by person thing :)

    Adding unflavored protein powder to oatmeal. Yuck.
    This. Even the Vanilla didn't work out. I will never ever add protein powder to my oatmeal. I will however add a few oats to my smoothie.

    I don't much like cooked oatmeal I eat it raw lol ( texture thing)

    PB2 Powder. It's fine when you mix it into things but with water as a PB sub? Bleh!

    Protein Powder. Haven't found a way to ingest it yet. Everything I've tried grosses me out. Maybe it's just the brand I bought?

    Coconut Water

    Turkey Bacon (I actually didn't buy this; tried it at someone else's house. SO GROSS. I'll take regular bacon, please)

    Arctic Zero. Seriously disgusting. Even DH hated it and he'll eat anything.

    Some things others have mentioned that I like.

    Quinoa. It's hit or miss. Love mixing it into my oatmeal and I've found some tasty salad type recipes that are awesome.

    Black Bean Brownies. I made these just the other day, out of boredom and a chocolate craving. Completely expected them to be awful but they taste good. Texture is odd. I got the recipe from Chocolate Covered Katie blog.

    Tofurkey. Not even close to turkey. It was like eating rubber.

    A tofu and greens quiche from the Happy Herbivore cookbook. It was so bad that my son and I took one bite and threw it down the disposal. I am now banned from making anything pie-shaped from that cookbook.

    I once tried the tofurkey deli slices. I should've known, disliking deli meat in the first place, that it was a bad idea. But this was worse than deli meat. It was like sweaty, rubbery deli meat impostor. Yech.

    I like turkey bacon. Not as a substitute for real bacon, though...I mostly like it in sandwiches, especially the peppered kind.

    I am changing my worst thing from swiss chard to the turkey enchiladas I tried (and immediately spit out) today. Mushy grossness. They would have been so much better with shredded turkey instead of ground.

    Grossest **** ever. Worse than when I bit into a nyquil capsule.


    I do, however, love turkey bacon and coconut water. But I don't eat pork and Gatorade is a waste of calories, IMO.
