I topped myself yesterday when I opened a newly purchased jar of natural fiber (ground chia seeds, flax etc...) and dumped a scoop in my hot tea. I don't know why, I'd just hears people say they sprinkle it on everything and you can't taste it. It was like sawdust! I scooped a big chunk back out and drank 3/4 of the rest,,, (I needed that fiber but was at the end of my calories for the day!)
Barf!

What's the worst thing you've tried?!

    It's definitely better in yogurt or oatmeal! Try again! I'd say my big eeewwww is okra. Recipe experiment gone bad! SLIMY AND GROSS!

    I tried to make the "cauliflower pizza dough"... Steamed cauliflower with egg and seasoning spread thin and baked into a pizza crust. Sounds like a great idea right?! DISCUSTING! I like cauliflower so you would assume I could choke it down, no such luck! it went to the trash. I guess it is a good diet food though because I didn't have an appetite for anything else! :tongue:

    I have never had anything very outlandish (although I quite like quinoa)

    For me the texture is a big thing with food.

    I cannot stomach tomatoes (although I can eat an italian tomato sauce) And aubergine just has an ick texture. I hate Angel delight style deserts but I love a real mousse.

    I have a few...

    --a really gross, pungent goat cheese sample I tried to eat at a natural foods store...had to make a beeline for the nearest trash can.
    --some kind of Hawaiian snack that one of my friends loves...it was extremely sweet and extremely salty at the same time. Had to make a beeline for the trash can again.
    -- cold, mushy cooked squash dripping with oil
    --Chicha, a fermented corn drink that I tried in a mud shack in Peru. I had to be polite so no spitting it out there!

    That Artic Zero "ice cream." Tasted like a bunch of chemicals. I threw mine away after 2 bites.

    My food issues are texture related mosty/. I gag at the thought of biting down on a water chestnut. As for disgusting flavours? I don't know that I've eaten something really disgusting tasting.... I'm drawing a blank. Maybe this is why I'm overweight lol I like all food hehehe

    I tried artichoke and really didn't care for it. The worst I have tried so far though is GLUTEN FREE BREAD! I was put on gluten free by the doctor and so far I have given up on bread. It is all hard, dry and like eating sawdust :(

    When I did weight watchers you were supposed to eat 2 tsp of olive oil every day. I was out of points for the day, but didnt have my oil yet, so I decided to put it on a spoon and take it like medicine.

    No. Never again. Ever.

    My FIL like the Udi's brand. I think it is usually in a refridgerated section. Personally I haven't tried it, but it is the only one he will eat.

    warriorprince: try Udi's brand gluten free bread if you can get it in your area. The white variety.

    Worst thing I ever tasted? Natto. It's a Japanese fermented soy bean thing. Sticky beans that taste like rotting garbage.

    A few years ago we were trying the South Beach plan and one of the "great things" was cauliflower prepared a certain way as a replacement for mashed potatoes. uhhhhh NOT! Now if I want some mashed potatoes I just eat them in moderation and log them. I need my food to taste good. It is so much better just learning to eat in moderation, exercise regularly and I drink very very few calories.
