I think for me personally, I cant stand vegetables like avocado, smelly cabbage, canned spinach, I like fresh spinach from the produce section. I dont know what tofu or soy foods are like, anyone else?

:happy:

    I cant stand celery! I can cook with it if I chop it really small, but there is no way I can eat it raw... not even mixed in stuff. I have never tried tofu... but soy milk was okay. It actually tasked richer and more fattening than my regular milk. I didnt like that part of it, but it made my smoothies creamier.

    for me it is mushrooms.:sick: I am forcing myself to but them and put them in some of the meals I cook. I cut them up super small so I can't pick them out or really tell they are there. I am hoping to acquire a taste for them. Don't ask me why. I guess I just don't want to be picky and so many of my recipes call for them.

    Brussel sprouts and collard greens. Just not my cup of tea. Bananas are okay, but I loathe the film that it leaves on your teeth.

    Beets. BLECH! (This stems from the childhood trauma of having to endure hot beets in school lunches. The smell made me sick to my stomach and to this day it brings back too many memories.)

    one more BIG food group... SEAFOOD.. i have tried and tried and tried and tried and tried ( get the point ? lol ) but I can not seem to get a taste for it.. which sucks because lobster, crab and shrimp look soooo good! I don't eat fish either.. I wish I did.. but I can't .. I've tried the " lighter " fish that are supposed to not have a fishy taste like tilapia and I still don't like it... Makes me kinda sad that I am missing out.. I have never wanted to like something so much :frown: but just couldn't....

    This is me...lol. Exactly! I've tried Tilapia...nope just can't do it! I've never liked ANY kind of seafood and tried many times. I'd love to be able to eat it for both health benefits and sooo many things are made with seafood.

    Oh well :(

    FISH! I have a phobia of fish. No joke. I can't even look at a goldfish without getting the heebie-jeebies. And I used to live in Japan in high school and college. Having a strong aversion to fish in a country that eats a lot of fish is not exactly a great experience.

    Unflavored milk. I can't stand it. :grumble: I always have to mix it with something to down it.
    Been that way since childhood

    Celery I can't stomach at all. I even hate the smell of it. Okra's another one - the slimy texture churns my stomach.

    Peppers, but especially green bell peppers. Just the smell makes me gag. It sucks because they are really good for you and there are so many foods that have peppers in them, but I cannot stand them.

    Wow this is so funny because I like the majority of what everyone named. I have to agree with canned spinach though and I'm not a big fan of celery but I don't hate it. I don't really like greens but I will eat them. IDK this is a hard one for me. I got through phases where I do and don't like things but at some point in my life I think I've tried and liked just about every healthy food (even tofu which I swore against but now mix in smoothies). I don't like grapefruit or papaya though and have yet to like them... but the day may come when my tastebuds change for them too.

    I like raw veges, but cook em and they turn into a chore

    Peppers, nuts (of any kind), shellfish, pork (in any form), kiwi, sweet potatoes... everything else that others mentioned though, I pretty much love! Tomatoes! Brussell Sprouts! Yogurt! Milk! Celery! Green Beans! Bananas! All of it. Bring it on, I'll clean your plate. :smile:

    Most fruits with the exception of Apples and grapes. Although I can drink juices of most fruits. I think it is the textures that I do not like. I do not like any raw tomato although if it is in food (and does not look like a tomoato) then I can eat it.
    All sea food except tuna and prawns.

    Celery! I've been vegetarian for 14 years and I think I would honestly rather eat a burger. Celery literally makes me gag.

    I think I like everything else. Oh, except tinned mandarins. Yuck.

    well i dont a like a lot of food according to my parents. mushrooms, celery(i dont mind it if i have hot sauce on it though), cooked carrots(to freaking sweet), bell pepper(because of baby pepper... :sick: but im forcing myself to eat it again, cause i used to like it before i had the baby pepper), certain fish, and certain seafood i dont like. cant think of the name right now... OOOH and i HATE PEAS, if someone gave it to me.. i would seriously throw it at them. and if i have TOOO MUCH yam i would feel sick to my stomach, and red potatoes the way my mom bake them... with the season.. dont like them. but i do like red potatoes
    for the most part i think i like a lot of other things. i think... i cant think of anymore that i dont like at the moment... tooo tired... to think now lol

    Bananas! Freaking gross me out to no end. I can't be near them. The smell makes me want to vomit...

    Wed 04/14/10 09:16 PMBrussel sprouts and collard greens. Just not my cup of tea. Bananas are okay, but I loathe the film that it leaves on your teeth.

    Beets and cauliflower. My mom has canned her own beets since forever ago, and I used to help her. The gross purply-red color would stay on my hands for DAYS and totally turned me off beets.

    I do like most of the other healthy foods that people have said they can't stand, like seafood and mushrooms and bananas....Don't like tomatoes much (like on a sandwich), but I will eat cherry tomatoes straight off the plant all day long. And I don't like ketchup either. :)
