    Steak and chunk beef. Giblets. Any part of poultry that isn't breast, and any breast that isn't skinless. My parents had a hard time with my meat pickiness when I was a kid, but they gave up pretty early and were happier for it. They didn't need to do any modifications to food, they just stopped putting bits I wouldn't eat in on plate and I didn't give them hard time because when something was mixed in (like in a stew) I would just calmly pick it out and push it to the side of the plate.

    Lamb. My grandmother used to make it at Easter and I hated it. I tried it recently and still do.

    As kid we got 2 choices each year of normal meal foods we could skip.

    Liver and lima beans.

    If my sister and I could convince mom that it was different (since choices not written down) - swap in my dad's chow mein (no where near authentic version).

    Spaghetti.

    I used to not touch a single type of noodle at all. Now, elbows and rotini are okay. But still won't eat long noodles.

    Deep-fried breaded seafood (something homemade or from a good restaurant pan-fried with a light breading/crust, like panko or cornmeal, is fine).

    Sugar in coffee (yes, a friend's mom served me coffee with sugar in it the morning after a sleepover, because my friend like it that way. It was so foul, for years I thought I just didn't like coffee.)

    Fat on my meat, other than really hot ham or pork fat that's on the verge of liquefying.

    Sausage or ground beef that has bits of gristle or bone chips in it.

    Summer squash cooked to death in liquid. It's fine sauteed or grilled, and I don't mind if it's steamed so long as it's not overcooked. I'll eat it raw from a crudite tray, but it doesn't taste like much without a good dip.

    I think that's it.

    Lima beans. I'll eat most things, but I won't touch lima beans. Also, any pickles that aren't dill. That also includes things like pickled eggs (my grandpa eats weird stuff)

    Beef tongue.

    When I child, because I didn't like the texture and the way it looked in the kettle (open the lid, there it is sticking its tongue out at you, but it's kind of gray-colored . . . ick).

    As an adult, because I'm vegetarian and that gets me out of trying out a lot of scary things, probably some of which I'd actually like.

    Celery = Hellery :s Even putting peanut butter on it never helped. I'll just lick off the pb and I'm left with this green stick of yuck lol
