  • I love fruits and vegetables, but I refuse to eat peas or cooked carrots. I used to feel so silly, but knowing there is a world of people who don't like veggies makes me feel much better LOL.
  • Figs, dates, prunes, & too many raisins - Yuck :)

    Yiou guys are making me hungry! I love all that stuff! Except maybe celery which I can tolerate but it would be the last thing I would pick off of a veggie tray.

    i have found that my tastes have changed as I have gotten older and stuff I use to dislike (olives, peppers, onions, etc) I know love.

    Allergic to mushrooms... so they're out.
    Raw Bell Peppers - tastes like I'm gnawing on a fork.
    Canned Spinach - But I LOOOOOVVVEEEE Fresh Spinach
    Sweet Potatos - potatos are NOT supposed to be sweet! LOL!
    Shellfish - I like fish... but I don't like lobster, shrimp, clams, etc... gag.

    Most of the other "commonly hated" stuff I like - brussel sprouts, cabbage, asparagus, etc.

    Used to think I didn't like brussel sprouts, til I tried them roasted in the oven with a bit of olive oil, salt and pepper.

    Used to hate mushrooms but now I am quite happy to have some in my foods like in sauces or casseroles.

    Used to hate squash but now I love all forms of it.

    Used to hate asparagus but now I love it, lightly oiled and roasted; or freshly steamed with a light Greek seasoning sprinkled over it.

    Used to avoid raw tomatoes but I realized it's usually mass-produced store-bought tomatoes that I don't like. Homegrown tomatoes have such a better flavor to me.

    My husband, when I met him, was averse to even more foods when we met (including seafood) but now he will eat just about anything I do. Except the brussel sprouts and mushrooms. ;-)

    I can't stand Mushrooms, bananas and canned fish....everybody keeps saying that canned tuna is great, still don't like it. I love the flavour banana but I hate actual bananas. It's weird because my favourite flavour of Popsicle is banana:laugh:

    Cooked carrots :sick: . I love them raw, but once they're cooked....... yuck!

    I agree!

    Also hate...

    Oranges and OJ - and even things (drinks) that I can TASTE OJ in... bad childhood memories, I was a sickly child
    Cooked Cabbage (although I like Kraut LOL)
    Raw bell peppers - gives me heartburn to no end :sick:
    Used to hate Broccoli and Cauliflower until I tried each of them roasted in the oven, now that's the ONLY way I will eat either.
  • I can't stand Pears! It is the texture, I don't like that gritty feel.

    i also do not like any berries with small seeds. I take a medication for my arthritis that causes mouth sores, and those stupid seeds get in them and make them hurt even more!

    I can't stand regular yogurt, but I LOVE greek yogurt.

    Here's another vote for bananas. It's a texture thing they feel slimy. Also wax beans I'm not sure if its the name or the color but I can't stand them.

    I can't stand any juices with pulp. It's like drinking backwash or something equally discusting.

    There is very little I won't eat... seriously! Some foods I'm not crazy about, like cottage cheese or radishes, but I'll still eat them. Bananas are OK, but they're also leaning towards my B-list in recent years. However, I love mashing a banana into a bowl before adding my cereal and milk... a little habit I picked up when started introducing solids to my kids when they were babes. The one thing I really, REALLY don't like is water. ACK!!!!! It actually makes me gag! :sick: But I've learned a few tricks that seem to help. First, it has to be room temperature, and second, it works better in small portions. Drinking water out of a small glass is SO much easier than a large glass or a bottle.

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


    DITTO!!!

    and I am not a fan of beets.
  • My top 3 would be bananas, yoghurt, and celery.
  • Cauliflower. It squeaks against my teeth when I eat it and makes me cringe.

    I have NEVER in my whole life heard of someone with an adversion to bananas (and now I see it is somewhat popular) ---this seems so weird to me. I love them!

    I AVOID avocados, mushrooms, asian & super spicy food, mustard, dark chicken meat. (there are more, but I'll spare you the entire list)
