    I can't stand:

    Hashbrowns
    Hummus
    Cheese Nips
    Root Beer
    Black licorice
    Green apple skittles
    Those huge mint sticks (who can even eat those??)
    Mounds candy bars (Not really a fan of coconut in anything, actually)

    3 Musketeers. Why??

    +1 Still can't figure out who buys those nasty things.

    *raises hand* I'm keeping 3 Musketeers and Circus Peanuts on the shelves, single-handedly.

    Well at least someone is eating them lol

    Why is carrot cake a thing? Why in the world did someone look at cake and say to themselves, "This needs a vegetable"?

    Carrot cake is my favorite-est cake in the entire gorrum world! How dare you?!4g0lmj4xvny1.jpeg

    I grew up eating liverwurst sandwiches for lunch until I found out what was actually in liverwurst (my mother was a big liver fan).

    I like carrot cake, and red velvet cake. What they have in common? Cream cheese for the win!

    it's called candy corn because it looks like kernels of corn.

    i'm not sure i've ever even eaten candy corn, but while we're on the subject of . . . whatever that mello word was, here's one.

    those awful little 'dinner mint' things. you know the ones. they have the colours of bridesmaids' dresses in a photograph taken in 1951, and the flavours of toothpaste left out to dry and then snipped into squares.

    i looooooooove musk candy though. whoever talked about that . . . you can't even get it in canada, and it's one of my deepest and saddest regrest. i have to settle for thrills and those little floral gum things, but both are just methadone to my musk heroin.

    I must be one of the most non-picky people on this forum. I love liquor filled chocolates, fruit cake, cakes with vegetables, liquorice, and almost anything that is not meat or egg based. My parents had such an easy time with me because I would try anything for the first, second, and even a third time before giving up on something I didn't like, and would eat almost anything. I can get picky about certain nuances, like sugar in savory foods, but other than that I'm such an easy person to please when it comes to food (as long as it does not come from an animal, then I can get extremely picky).

    Fruit cake. I doesn't make sense... fruit? Good. Cake? Great. Fruit cake? Nasty crap.

    I LOVE fruitcake! Especially the cheaper, extra chewy, no actual alcholol kind. The texture, the spices even the chewy weird almost fruit stuff is awesome!

    I think those are skittles.

    :D

    turducken
    ham spread
    bologna
    rocky mountain oysters (google it if you must)

    What's wrong with turducken? Slight poultry overload perhaps...

    I can't do mixed meats. It makes me squirm. So meatballs or meat loaf that are made with more than 1 type of meat are out too. The only exception is sushi.

    Even though you can pick them apart and eat them separately?

    okay . . . two people 'liked' my sriracha complaint, and i wanna know who they are. there's only three of us in the whole world so we need all the support we can get.

    also need to hunt down a three musketeers candy bar now, just to find out for myself what's so wrong about it. i'm not sure they're commonly available in canada.

    At that point you may as well just drink this:

    My dad loves fruitcake, I just don't understand.

    Also, eggnog, NO! WHY ARE YOU DRINKING RAW EGGS?! I try to eat cake batter and I get yelled at, but it's perfectly OK to drink it if there's booze in it???? :#

    If it’s aged properly the alcohol “cooks” the eggs.

    I absolutely love seaweed salad. I used to buy it at Costco until I discovered I could get it cheaper from the deli at a local Asian market. You can send any you don't want my way. Heh

    Fruitcake? Well, if you are what you eat....

    Salted licorice? Never heard of that. You take a nice cherry Red Vine, and somebody went "This needs sodium" WTF is that?

    Like all things, Spam (in moderation) is okay. Cubed and mixed with scrambled eggs is better than ham, IMHO.

    3 Musketeers? Only candy that gives me instant diarrhea.........just horrible

    Salted licorice is licorice flavoured, not red vine flavoured (calling that stuff licorice is wrong imo)...

    i live in denmark where licorice is in literally everything.
    • Salted licorice? Got it.
    • "Sweet" licorice? Check.
    • Licorice in Chocolate bars.
    • Licorice in Ice Cream.
    • Licorice in cookies.
    • Licorice in bread.
    • Licorice in alcohol? of course.
    • licorice flødeboller? you bet!
    • Licorice gum? hahaha

    Welcome to my licorice hell.

    ...me too...I hope we soon get past this licorice everything
    Liquorice in beer? wine? ...my Motherinlaw even puts it on her pavlova :(
