    "Naturally flavored" whey protein powder. Made it into a protein shake and it just tasted like spoiled, chalky milk. I've got a huge container of the crap if anyone wants it.

    pretty much every protein powder Ive ever tried, thay all make me gag, bleck.

    Tomatos, ive always hated them but tried them because I come to find out I actually like a lot of the stuff I always thought I hated, But tomatos still are nasty.

    Vegetarian brats, I like smart dogs (the only decent veggie dog ive tried) but the brats are aweful

    Quest Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough protein bar.

    Or anything with Erythritol. It tastes like poison.

    I tried the quest bars...I usually can power through things I don’t like but this one I threw in the trash after two small bites.

    Quest Bars. Blegh. The sweetener and chalkiness is terrible I really don't understand the love for them.
    Shirataki noodles and kale. No thanks.

    Cauliflower fried rice is probably the most disgusting thing that i made. I had meal prepped an entire week of it too and had to choke it down. Never again.

    I sometimes use cauliflower rice to bulk up regular rice. It works pretty well for this purpose but I agree that I can't use it 1:1 as a substitute for the real thing.

    Wasn't really on a "journey to a healthier me" or anything but fermented soy beans from Korea. Literally rotting to the point they were slimy and coated with this mucous stuff.

    Same here! I only know this as 'natto' in Japanese cuisine. Its the worst!

    Cauliflower rice. I love cauliflower. I love rice. But I hated trying to have cauliflower rice. I might have made it wrong, but it was not nice

    Coconut anything. Blech! Not even a bottle of rum can make coconut taste better to me!

    I tried microwave zucchini noodles. The kind in a steambag you just throw in the microwave. Way too watery and mushy.

    Today I made Quinoa for the first time... BARF!!

    to me, it's that texture. I don't like that or tapioca, or bubble tea.

    I tried collard greens for the first time in years, and still found it disgustingly appalling.

    I haven't tried or eaten anything that I haven't eaten in the past. I've always like a wide variety of foods, both nutritious and not so nutritious.

    We were into quinoa way before quinoa was cool from a trip to Peru where it is a staple.

    Well I confirmed recently I still hate pickled beets. Yuck. The worst ever though, was some protein shake packets I found at Natural Grocers. I got an orange dreamsicle and a cookies and cream. They sounded amazing. What I got was some thick, foamy , kind of goopy substance trying to pass itself off as a beverage. Also it was so sickly sweet, and no amount of cutting with water of milk helped. Ew.

    Almond milk....NOPE!
    Left a slimy feel in my mouth and then got quite ill. And, no, it hadn't gone bad...I spilt the carton with my coworker and she was fine. Never again.

    Coconut water (HOW DO YOU PEOPLE DRINK THIS)

    Also, those Premier Protein clear drinks. It is whey protein pretending to not be protein... the chalky milk aftertaste made me throw up acid milky fruit punch through my nose... OH God still one of the worst experiences I have ever had.

    And what a shame, bc I love everything else Premier makes

    I second jack fruit. I tried a sample at Trader Joe's. It was covered in a green coconut Thai sauce. It was like eating giant boogers...covered in a green coconut Thai sauce :grimace:

    A Quest bar, it was supposed to taste like a cookie or something. First time in 12 years I felt like I was going to throw up.

    When I was a kid, my parents drank brewer's yeast mixed into orange juice. At one point they were also getting desiccated liver powder. All of it tasted like dirt! They were reading the Adelle Davis books at the time. Now I know she was a quack.
