What foods do you love one way, but hate another?

I love asparagus fresh and pickled but hate it canned! Ugh, mushy grossness!

I love mushrooms cooked, but don't like them raw.

I love savoury yoghurt but can't stand it sweet.

Got any?

    I'm working on it, but I do not care for most cooked veggies (broccoli, corn, onion, and brussels sprouts the few exceptions). But raw, YUM! I'll eat salad by the bucket--spinach or spring greens, mushrooms, tomato, you name it, I'll eat it in my salad.

    I don't like canned veggies much but I'll eat them if I have to. And pickled stuff... not my thing.

    Otherwise I'm not picky.

    I'm the same way. I love mushrooms cooked in any dish but hate them raw, like on salad. I absolutely refuse to eat raw tomatoes but I'm okay with chunky salsa/pasta sauce/pizza sauce. That's all I can think of off the top of my head.

    I do not like carrots cooked at all but love them raw. I love cooked pineapple and ham in meals but absolutely hate ham and pineapple pizza. I like cream of mushroom soup but hate mushrooms any other way.

    I can't stand raw broccoli, but cooked any way, I can eat a whole field full of the stuff.

    I hate tomatoes but will eat things made out of them. Salsa I can eat if it's thin, but if the tomato is chunky I won't touch it.
    I also hate eating foods that squeak on my teeth, like frozen asparagus, canned green beans, etc. But I'll eat all of those fresh.

    Cooked carrots. I can't stand them. They have to be raw. Also can't drink orange juice but will eat them as much as possible.

    Oh, this too!

    Like cauliflower raw, but not cooked.

    Love Spinach in salad, sandwiches, wraps, or even in dishes like vegetarian lasagna or pizza. HATE it cooked and served as is.

    Love tomatoes… but don't really care for tomato based pasta sauces.

    Like fresh or canned pineapple when eaten plain as fruit… don't like mixed in things or on pizza.

    I've about the decided the only thing I really don't like in any form is corn. Not cooked, not creamed, not on the cob. Not in stews or soups. I don't even like popcorn!

    Love Green Beans fresh or canned, but I absolutely hate them frozen

    Love raw carrots, don't like them cooked unless it's in soup

    Love cooked spinach, even if it's only cooked for a minute or two to wilt it, but I don't like it raw

    Love homemade tomato sauce made from pureed tomatoes, hate whole tomatoes or large chunks, raw or cooked.

    Peppers. I can only eat them raw. The textures of cooked peppers is enough to make me gag ( the exception being lightly grilled so there is still a lot of crunch). Everything else, I either like it any way it's prepared, or hate it in all forms

    Gag at the thought of milk, cream, whatever -- even rice, soy, almond milk, but love ice cream (and whipped cream).

    I like scrambled eggs, but not fried or over easy.

    I love chocolate (cakes, cupcakes, cookies) but dislike chocolate ice cream and fudge.

    I love my veggies steamed, roasted or sautéed and on a plate. I do not want them blended into some sort of green baby food-looking shake.

    Broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, asparagus... Cooked just barely so they're still crunchy are all awesome; I could eat them for dinner on their own. Raw... bleh. Just can't do it, not even with a gallon of ranch.

    I like marshmallows but I can't stand marshmallows in cereal, like Lucky Charms. It's the texture. Anything with that chalky, squeeky texture turns my stomach. It's like nails on a chalkboard to me. Whoppers, the malted candy ball things, do the same thing.

    I don't like raw tomatoes by themselves/sliced on a sandwich or burger, but I like finely chopped raw tomato in my guacamole, salsa or on top of a pizza.

    And I think mayo is disgusting, but I like it if it's well mixed into chicken, tuna or potato salad for the creaminess (not to the point where it's saturated, though).

    I love cottage cheese with savory additions like tomato, pepper, or chips. I can't stand eating it with anything sweet though, like fruit or jelly.

    I love tuna salad and fried shrimp, but I absolutely will not eat any other type of fish at all.
