Ditto on the organ meats. Love the smell of liver and onions cooking but can't even choke down one little piece.0
-
Totally hate sweet and savoury mixed.
Things like pineapple on pizza, fruit in curry, fruit with cheese, or chocolate flavour crisps. Love sweet stuff, love savoury but not together.0 -
Anything pickled
Mushrooms
Most things with a slimy texture
Olives
Grapefruit, or general bitterness
Mayo
Anchovies
Mustard
I'll probably add more later... Im kind of a picky eater still, but I've come a LONG way from where I used to be lol

olives
hard boiled egg yolks
mayonnaise
bologna
licorice or anything licorice/anise flavored
raw onion
spaghetti squash
cantaloupe

Boiled eggs. I feel like gagging just thinking about them. The texture of egg yolks is a non-food item and the slimy, firm white part is shudder worthy.
Oh, one more. Kettle Corn. I tried some once and threw out the whole bag because I thought it was spoiled. Nope, that's just the way it tastes.0 -
Sprinkles. Ugh.
The fiance who loves ice cream also HATES sprinkles. Match made in heaven.0 -

I'm right there with you on sprinkles. Little wax pieces of colored nothingness that only get in the way and stick in teeth. Another product that I saw the how's it made show.....yuck. I didn't like them before that show and now I really don't like them.
Maraschino cherries. Aren't they even considered inedible or listed as a non-food decoration in some countries? I heard that somewhere. I know what a fresh cherry looks like and it's nothing like the plastic textured almost opaque unnatural red colored funky tasting thing that restaurants contaminate my dessert and/or drinks with. I'm always unhappy when it's not listed or shown as an ingredient so I cant ask them to leave it off and then I have to remove the vile glow in the dark looking pile and the waste it excretes on my food.

LOL I feel the same way about those nasty cherries! I can't believe some people actually eat them.0 -
Banoffe, why would you ruin perfectly good toffee??
Licorice or aniseed
Boiled eggs
Celery
Bananas
Sweet, or sweet and salt popcorn. Give me salted or toffee any day.0 -

Haha ditto. Although for some reason the Funfetti cake I made with sprinkles inside was actually delicious.
About the cherries, I actually can't stand most cherry desserts because artificial cherry is just plain nasty.0 -
oh those sprinkles! I agree along with:
Apple, peach, nectarine or pear pie!
Golden raisins....
Not that this should be considered 'food' but Waldon 'Peanut Butter' spread....probably the most vile thing I've ever consumed.
Mayo
Bread and butter pickles or sweet pickles
Roast beef, hamburger meat, steak or lamb...actually any red meat
gravy

Omg yessssss! And kiwi and avocado too

Here in N.Y. cream cheese and lox on a bagel is quite popular, however I find it to be vile! I love Cream cheese, and I love bagels, but I hate lox. The idea of putting fish with cream cheese is disgusting to me. I have tried it a couple of times, but I just can't do it0

i literally die for funfetti haha!0 -
peanut butter. Just the smell sends me running *shudders* and I have a mushroom phobia. When walking over a meadow I do a double take when I see mushrooms growing in front of me, and those big white puffballs are worst. I don't die when I accidentally eat a tiny piece of mushroom, but the texture and taste is just yucky as well. Dead ones (in my food) are better though than alive ones. Those are seriously nasty and scary! They can kill you!!!

I've been turning a corner on olives recently, but I still absolutely cannot stand anything with caraway flavor. Ugh. Rye bread, italian sausages (which sucks because I love the rest of the sausage apart from the stupid caraway seeds), Kimmelweck buns (which also sucks because I'm a Buffalonian, and was raised with Beef on Weck), liquors with caraway, etc., etc.0

My food weirdness isn't what food it is, it just can't touch. Lol I hate for food to touch each other. I also eat things one at a time. I also hate "wet" bread. Strawberry shortcake, biscuits and gravy, bread pudding....ewwwww0

Olives
Mayonnaise
Yogurt
Canned tuna fish
Bologna
Spam
White bread
Gravy
Licorice
Anything visually repulsive0 -

I've heard the whole "not touching" thing a lot, but I could never understand it. I grew up with a family that puts foods on top of foods.0 -
@stephanieluvspb -
You're the only other person besides my dad who I've heard mention "wet" bread! He hates dumplings and almost cried when I brought him to Panera bread and ordered him one of those bread bowl soup things. And while I'm at it:
Okra - blech!!
Caramel - shivers!!
Creamed spinach - just the look of it!!
The smell, thought, taste of butter rum or butterscotch.
French fries and mayo? Why? Why?
Sour cream.
Grated cheese on pasta with a tomato based sauce. / can't get over the color of the combo
Weird...0 -

I also hate wet bread. I don't mix a lot of things usually just mashed potatoes with stuff otherwise it can't touch. Bread pudding is vile! Old bread in some cinnamon water gravy stuff. Just gross! I think the weirdest thing I do is when I eat out I eat things in the order they would warm up. So if I have veggies they get eaten first because they warm horribly and then meat then bread.0 -

My grandpa (who grew up during the Great Depression) ate butter and radish sandwiches. They're actually quite tasty.
take a french baguette some nice butter some radishes and salt. um heaven!
I was going to say, that sandwich sounds very French (except it'd need to be open-faced and better bread).
My paternal grandmother used to make a sardine sandwich with buttered bread.
On the maternal side, my grandparents, my mother and her siblings used to eat potato chip sandwiches with buttered bread or bread with mayo.0 -
I love all foods.... and then there´s tofu and other soy-products. Can´t even ... no I won´t try. Never have tried it. Don´t even like it to be in my fridge, but my daughter er is a vegetarian. She loves and enjoy her tofu. Phew not for me.
Once I went on a date with a very nice guy who had a lot of good things going for him. very nice, good looking and interesting. Only he told me on the first date, that he is a vegetarian and he served for guests a dish with fresh bananas in a mayonaise-dressing!!!!! I was so grossed out that I never saw him again. It was bad. Even writing this I´m gagging. Banana and mayo.... just NO.0 -
For me, I don't do green bell peppers. Too acrid and I can't get the taste out of my mouth.
I'll eat red bell peppers if I have to, but I really dislike them and the way I can taste them no matter how thoroughly the flavors are melded.
I've found that I do like orange bells - a little fruity tasting.
Eel is nasty. I love sushi and sashimi, but you can just get the eel away from me. Yuck.
I also have questions about pork belly. So many people love it. I don't hate it, exactly, but it's just nothing special at all. I've had it made by some of the best chefs in the country, and it just doesn't improve.
ETA: How funny - I used to be the ultimate picky eater. Chicken nuggets and apple juice or bust. Not too much that I won't eat these days.0 -
Celery in anything makes it inedible to me. Everyone says it has no taste but it does. I know. Also olives ruin everything they touch. Same with capers! Warm fruit. I love cold fruit, even room temperature fruit, but heat it up and it makes me feel sick.
Eta: The taste of alcohol. Anything licorice or anise flavored.0 -
Any type of cheese or yogurt disgusts me, unless it's mango soy yogurt I can tolerate that. I've always hated the smell of cooking steak but I love BBQ. I hate really creamy rich foods and dense mayo products. I also get nauseated by the smell of eggs being cooked, it always reminds me of when my mom bought sugar free gummy bears and put them out at a party without telling anyone. That was a tragic night for many and eggs just give me flashbacks0

Any type of melon- tastes & smells like cloying death0

I kind of get that. I really enjoy melon but sometimes when it's overripe it smells like a rotting corpse and once you think it, it's all over.0 -
I have to admit that I'm a bit of a food snob about some things. I like to think of it as selective use of calories.
Here's my list:
1. Mustard in any form.
2. Eggs--scrambled, fried, poaches, boiled, or deviled (see above). Quiche and breakfast casseroles are the exceptions.
3. Radishes.
4. Cucumbers. Dill pickles are good though. No bread and butter pickles though.
5. Liver/other organs.
6. Melons other than watermelon.
7. Anything with artificial sweetener. It tastes metallic to me.
8. Horseradish.
9. Sauerkraut.
10. Anything with cooked bananas, like banana bread. Can't even stand the smell of it.
11. White chocolate.
12. Raw onions. Caramelized, yes. Cooked into things, yes. Raw, like on a hamburger? NO.
13. Turnips.
14. Cooked greens like spinach or collard greens. Raw spinach, like in a salad=good. Cooked slimy spinach=bad.
15. Celery. Can stand it in things like soup but I will pick out big pieces. Definitely not raw.
16. Pork rinds, corn nuts and the like. Ick.
17. Licorice or anise flavor in anything.
I also don't like processed baked goods. I don't eat things like Oreos, Chips Ahoy, etc. because I think I can make them better myself. I love to bake, and with a limited calorie "budget", I don't want to waste calories on anything that isn't exactly what I want. For example, I will not eat a Hershey kiss. But good quality dark chocolate? Always yes in small portions.0 -
Brussel's sprouts. I can eat them roasted if pressed but wouldn't ever eat them voluntarily.
Oysters. No. Just no.
Beef tongue.
Pigs feet.
Cilantro tastes like stinkbugs smell.
That's about it. I like most anything0
