    Raw onions. Get them out of my salad NOW!
    Radishes
    Protein powders, I've never found one that doesn't taste horridly synthetic and give me jitters.

    Green smoothies, so beloved of health bloggers. I will happily eat any green cooked, and prefer baby spinach to lettuce in a salad, but the addition of spinanch or kale to a perfectly nice juice or smoothie to turn it into dubiously coloured sludge is wrong.

    I do not like cucumbers.
    Can handle them in small amounts mixed in salad or sandwiches if I have to but prefer not to.

    Raw celery. - but cooked and in things is ok.

    Watermelon - I am only person I know who dislikes this - just tastes like wet straw IMO.

    Cottage cheese - cant stand lumpy texture.

    Raw oysters.

    Lambs fry and any other offal products.

    Cauliflower. Especially when trying disguise it as something else. And sprouts of any kind, might as well go out in the backyard and eat tree seed pods.

    Anything that comes from the Sea, Lake or river.

    No, no and No, Not baked, broiled or fired in a pan, "I will not eat seafood said Katie I am".
    Agree 100%. And I can't hear the statements "Try this (fish dinner) - it doesn't taste like fish" - Yes it does - also smells fishy :sick:


    And I can't make myself eating anything grean leafy (spinach, salad, ...). But drinking those green smoothies works surpisingly well - strange me :happy:

    Mushrooms. I've never eaten a mushroom and not felt like I was chewing on a human finger.

    Nice. I dislike mushrooms as well due to the texture. Now I'm going to use this line.

    I'm in total agreement with regards to celery. I just can't eat it by itself. Diced in some salad, doesn't bother me.

    I also agree with the fish statement with the exception of some game fish. I like shark, tuna, marlin, and swordfish. Most other fish just tastes like a mouthful of riverwater.

    Sweet potatoes. I'm a Southern girl who hates. Sweet. Potatoes. Think of all the shame I endured growing up when I wouldn't eat the casserole with browned marshmallows on top. Why ruin a perfectly good marshmallow by gluing it to that mealy, sticky, orange goo? Even just baked I can't stand them. I wish it were otherwise, I know they're slightly better nutritionally than a white potato, but I just can't do it.

    Also, oatmeal. Again, texture. Gak.

    Let's play Settlers of Catan, and I'll trade you all my sweet potatoes and oatmeal for all your avocados. Two for one, that's a really good trade!

    not sure what is categorized as healthy or not healthy since food is fuel but the one "healthy" food I can't seem to enjoy is plain steel cut oats.

    im with op, carrots are narly, unless cooked with a roast (in the dish with the beef/pork)

    i also hate onions that are still crunchy, once they get soft the flavour isnt as strong i find

    cooked peas, love them right out of the pod with a bit of salt though

    grapefruit, raw tomatoes, raw peppers, raw celery, pickles

    oddly enough i just realize raw tomatoes and onions are on my list but i love bruschetta

    I'm amazed at what some people hate to eat. O: I could never imagine myself without some dishes like fruit, seafood, etc.

    I'm not a raw carrot fan, and I detest okra. Yuck. Egg plant is also really gross.

    Celery.

    Screw celery.

    I can tolerate it in beef stew or soups or something, but raw? Oh hell no. It's like gnawing on grass. I'd seriously have to have like two cups of peanut butter to choke it down.

    Only 1????? That is my problem I don't like a lot of fruits and vegetables. I don't like cauliflower or broccoli (unless it is cut up really small).

    I really wish I could learn to stomach fish and bananas (not together :tongue: ). I have tried over my lifetime and they both make me gag.

    With fish it is the taste. I grew up in a house where we had to eat the same as everyone else so I would eat fish sticks like the rest of the family but only if I soaked them in lemon juice. As I got older. I would try different types of fish prepared different ways and never could do it.

    With bananas it is the taste and texture. No matter what they are in, I can still pick out the banana flavor which, to me, permeated everything else.

    Raw tomatoes and canned/cooked peas. Love tomatoes stewed and on veggie burgers but just not raw. And I love peas raw but not canned or frozen and then cooked haha.

    I'm with you. I am a northern girl so we don't have sweet potatoes often but squash tastes similar. My annual embarrassment is when I have to explain to my mother (for the umpteenth time) that, no, I do NOT like pumpkin pie.

    I don't hate any food. However, I don't care for broussel sprouts. I know those are big on vitamin C and K but so what? Big Whoop! I look up the nutritional values of the food I don't like and find another food I do like that gives me the same nutritional values. I also don't eat corn but I eat just about everything made from corn like corn flakes, corn chips, and corn bread. Yep, I am weird that way.
