    I really hate sweet veg/fruit on my savoury meal - carrot, swede, turnip, sweet potato, squash and anything else similar, pineapple on pizza, or salads with apple/grape.

    I do like sweetcorn though, go figure.

    Coffee, licorice, red bell pepper, Miracle Whip

    It's too bad so many people hate cabbage, brussel sprouts, zucchini and mushrooms. Oh, well. More for me!

    Canned meat, kraft singles, liquorice all sorts (but the 'sticks' are fine), tonic water, tripe (used to like tripe soup as a kid though), many canned veg (corn and peas are okay), insects (I'll leave those for my lizards, tarantulas, scorpion and glider), mashed potato mixed with electric beaters (mmm glue), beef cooked past medium rare, over cooked meat or fish, knock off nutella, there's probably more.

    What IS it with the knock-offs? They all taste HORRIBLE. Like, all of them seem to taste the same, and they're all equally awful. I'm not a huge Nutella fan (I don't like hazelnuts much) but I agree that it tastes good--the knock-offs taste like those horrifying cheap chocolate bon bon things that they only give to young kids because adults won't eat them.

    Exactly.

    All knock-offs I've had tasted like stale palm oil mixed with stale nuts and cheap chocolate. The brand that is dark and white swirled is okay, though.

    Oh... I don't like buttercream made with crisco, and I do NOT like unsalted butter.

    I will eat anything once. I'd like to try some of the foreign insect specialties of i ever travel to those places.

    I tried and hated:
    - Limburger cheese. Fortunately it wasn't wasted because my dad has a stomach of iron and finished it. :s
    - Plain canned asparagus (worst canned vegetable ever, but i do like picked asparagus)
    - Kimchi (smells and tastes like it's rotting, no thanks)

    I don't like but will tolerate if i don't have a choice:
    - Celery (except with peanut butter ;) )
    - Cucumbers (including pickles)
    - Anything cherry except fresh cherries (had too much cherry flavored Tylenol as a kid)

    I also can't stomach Grapenuts because the first time i had them i mistook the salt for sugar and poured a bunch on. The plain stuff still tastes salty to me.

    I love liver, haggis, and kale! :p And i tried Durian once and liked it fine. It tastes better than it smells. But i wouldn't seek it out.

    Cooked green bell pepper!!

    And I know when something as been cooked in the same pan as green peppers, too, so most Mexican restaurant fajitas are out. I like the yellow, orange, and red bell peppers when cooked but can not tolerate the green.

    But I like raw green bell pepper. Go figure...

    Meat wise: steak and liver. I'm not a fan of red meat in general but I won't touch steak or liver with a barge pole. It's the heavy iron content I can taste/makes me not like it. Veg: avocados and cooked mushrooms. Also bananas for fruit. Such an overpowering flavour and gag worthy texture.

    I've learned to like a lot of things but these are my number 1 'will not touch and no amount of money could make me eat them' foods.

    I feel you. I love raw mushrooms but hate them with a fiery passion when cooked. Slimy little toads.

    ETA: sorry, didn't mean to double post.

    And I'm the opposite! I've learned to tolerate and even like the taste of cooked green pepper in some dishes, but can't do raw green peppers. Any other color I'm fine with.

    Other than raw green peppers I'll eat about anything as long as it's not overcooked. Like crock pot recipes... I have very few crock pot recipes that I can tolerate. Fatty meats and beans are fine, but putting chicken or lean pork in a crock pot all day is such a waste when they taste 10x better cooked in other ways. Save the crock pot for a pork shoulder or ribs that benfit from long slow cooking and cook that expensive lean stuff properly.

    Edamame. I don't think it's really food, it's some kind of trick!

    Turnips - yuck!
    Okra - slimy snot, I almost puked
    Pork belly - too fatty. I like crispy bacon, but not pork belly that seems to be rage.

    I'm sure there's a lot more out there, but this is the stuff I've come across and tried and will not eat.

    Funny. People don't believe me when I say I can taste when chicken is cooked bone-in or skin on and then the bone and skin are removed later, or when it has been cooking with other bone/skin pieces. My parents never could trick me. They eventually accepted that they would either have to prepare a separately cooked breast for me, or that some dishes, like roasted whole chicken and turkey, I won't touch. That was fine, though, because I never complained and just ate the things that I do eat. Mom says my meat pickiness started very early when I would eat certain baby foods containing meat but give her a hard time with others spitting or refusing to open my mouth, and she could not figure out what it was exactly that made me prefer certain ways the same meat is prepared but not others. I ate everything else otherwise, so she focused more on non-meat baby foods to save herself the headache. I was her first born, and she was very enthusiastic about cooking and trying all kinds of nutritious baby foods.

    I also know when there is even the smallest part of a non-breast chicken meat in the mix. A local restaurant makes these chicken nuggets that everybody raves about, I took one bite and it was "NOPE!". At least I could tell people the secret to their recipe. They most definitely have have thighs mixed in there.

    goat cheese

    Applebees. It's like the opposite of food porn. Hideous slop shipped in prepackaged and reheated by underpaid kitchen staff. I'd rather eat a hot dog from a gas station.

    Mines kinda weird but cilantro...I've always had an aversion to the taste which is aparently genetic. Can't STAND it in anything, in fact I can literally recognize the taste in a big meal if even very little is added

    One thing I cannot stand eating and just the smell of it makes me barf is mayo. I can't do it! If I know it has mayo in it or suspect it to have mayo in it I won't eat it. My family makes fun of me and even tries to lie to me and tell me their food doesn't have mayo in it. I know better than that though

    Cabbage and cabbage-like plants. UGH. UGH. My coworker heated up some Brussels Sprouts and I asked why the office smelled like a garbage dump. Because it did.

    okra and collard greens due to the nasty slimy and leaf like textures respectively...would need some serious bacon to down without Vomitting. Whoever doesn't like bacon is obviously kidding

    Kale, cabbage, & broccoli though I enjoy
