    coffee, aniseed, liquorice, sweets (all of them, even as a child), avocado, hummous, olives, raw veg (I don't mind basic salad stuff i.e. cucumber, tomatoes, salad leaves but not peppers, carrots, broccoli, cauliflower type stuff), flavoured chocolate (e.g. mint, orange), scallops, dr pepper, cherry coke, fizzy drinks that aren't cola or lemonade especially if a stupid colour.

    There's a lot of other stuff that I'm not too fond of but cooked really well is enjoyable - e.g. had deep fried aubergine matchsticks with molasses the other week and it was lovely but normally would not touch aubergine with a barge pole. I can't drink wine but in cooking its fine.

    Meat (the reason I'm veggie is not health or animal rights, I just don't like meat!)
    Olives
    Popcorn (though learning to like in very small quantities)
    Coffee (weirdly I love the smell, but it doesn't taste anything like it smells!)
    Marzipan
    Cake icing (toooo sweeeeet)
    Marmite :sick:
    Courgettes & aubergines...why would anyone do that to themselves??!
    Blue cheese

    Apart from that, I'll eat anything, lol.

    :laugh: Haha, you are so right!

    I like cake, but it has to be really scrumptious to be worth the calories, and most sheet cakes aren't. Usually it's going to taste exactly like every other sheet cake you've ever had.
  • I'm so not fussy with foods but BEANS!!!! Ick!

    I will only eat green beans, soy beans, and jelly beans!

    (I will eat hummus but not chickpeas and occasionally a little of a bean dip with Mexican stuff, though...)

    I don't like most chinese food or pizza. Too greasy. I love fresh, homemade chinese food and pizza though.
  • Cilantro. What the heck is up with cilantro!!!! It's in everything lately!! Gag!

    Mayo
    Water Chestnuts
    Beer
    American Cheese
    Salt and Vinegar Chips
    Pancakes (it's a texture thing.. I like crispy waffles, but not pancakes)
    Octopus (in sushi and such.. The chewiness makes me gag)

    Otherwise, I pretty much eat everything, and that explains why I'm dealing with weight issues. :P

    I HATE water chestnuts too. (I think that's part of why I don't like chinese food) It's pretty much the only food I will spit out.

    Cottage cheese
    Blue cheese (smells like sweaty socks)
    Egg mayonnaise
    Brussel sprouts
    Parsley

    I also don't like anything aniseed flavoured - once did a shot of sambuca when I was a student and it was the worst thing ever.

    Celery. I never liked the taste nor saw the point. Also, pesto sauce, what? Why?

    Yogurt, oatmeal (unless it's in cookies, lol), beer, wine, Red Bull, root beer, and cold coffee drinks. And I agree with the person that listed marzipan - that might seriously be the most single disgusting thing I have ever eaten in my life.

    For some reason, it's really trendy. It doesn't bother me, but I think it tastes soapy.

    Beer, for sure. I often drink it anyway because that's what all my friends are doing, but I never really enjoy it. Sad, eh?

    Miracle Whip-- okay, maybe not everyone likes that stuff, but it is NASTY! Tastes just like chemicals.

    Sweet tea-- I'm from the south, so this is a big one. I love iced tea, but NOT with sugar in it.

    Pepperoni-- if it's quality meat, then I don't mind it thrown in with some veggies on my pizza, but then again, I could easily live the rest of my life without the stuff.

    Ham-- especially of the deli meat variety. I really hate ham. It smells like garbage to me!

    Shredded cheese-- I love cheese (even though I'm lactose-intolerant), but I'm so annoyed when my house salad contains more shredded, suspiciously bright yellow cheese than it does actual salad ingredients (as in veggies). I also don't understand why people cover baked potatoes in the shredded stuff. It's just not my thing.

    Sweet potato casserole- a baked sweet potato with a little sea salt is one thing, but putting marshmallows all over the top? And/or brown sugar? No thank you!

    I also hate caramel and licorice.

    Spaghetti, any type of bean, soda, licorice, mint flavoring, lemon flavoring, orange flavoring, pine nuts, eggs, tuna, vegetable medleys that touch each other, pizza, enchiladas, chicken pot pie, ketchup, orange juice, potato salad, etc.
  • Tomatoes, green olives, cherries (actually cherry flavored anything), avocado, asparagus, rasins, coconut, root beer and hot drinks (hot coffee, hot tea, etc.), are things I won't even touch.
    Other then that I have dislikes, but I can stomach it for the most part. Meat grosses me out though. I don't eat anything that had 4 legs at one point, lol.
