I don't like spaghetti squash when it has spaghetti sauce on it. It tastes like squash. Eat it like squash. A little butter and salt and pepper. Not spaghetti sauce on top. People don't put spaghetti sauce on butternut squash or pumpkin. Why on spaghetti squash? Just no.2

I really, really love tofu. A lot. I think the trick is that I think of it less a a meat substitute, and more like a giant fried noodle/cheese hybrid thing (I always press, dry and sautee it.) that I can add sauce to and call it a day. When others are curios and want to try it for the first time, I let them know that it is more like a noodle and less like a meat. Everyone has actually really liked it (or claimed to, at least,) as long as I got to them first with that little nugget of wisdom.
That seems like a good way to look at it. I do think of it more as a meat, but I only like it when my husband prepares it...usually baked or pan-seared with homemade smoky BBQ sauce, or pan-fried and seasoned in stir fry. I do eat (some) meat and it reminds me of chicken.
I only like extra firm tofu though. I have seen a lot of recipes & ideas for using soft tofu in smoothies & cheesecakes and puddings and for some reason the idea of that makes me sick!

I can tolerate cauliflower, depending on how it's cooked. One health craze I can't get behind is acai bowls - no, just no.0

Tuna. It always leaves me feeling sick and it tastes rank ewwww2

kombucha is terrible!!! but i hate coconut water more!! it tastes like breast milk mixed with fruit punch. i actually spit when it touched my mouth. and i agree that raw kale is horrible but i like it cooked. I also cannot eat scrambled egg whites. the texture in my mouth makes me gag.0

Another salad mix, if the squash is zucchini or yellow.0 -
Beets and beet juice. It's like scooping up a handful of pasture dirt and eating it. No way. And any artificial sweetener. Even Stevia. I can taste it a mile away. Yuck.1

Asparagus....of all the veggies I hated as a kid..I still hate this! I hate the SMELL Of it...I tell my wife "Asparagus belongs in two places..the far side of the table or the trash"0

Any "protein" foods masquerading as junk food. Protein milkshakes? Trash. Protein candy bars? Garbage. Protein brownies and deserts in general? Gross. Tastes like chalk and aspirin were snuck in there, every single time. I'd rather take supplements for protein1
