What's the most disgusting food you've tried so far on your journey to a healthier you?

"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.2

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 aweful1 -

Quest Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough protein bar.
Or anything with Erythritol. It tastes like poison.1 -

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.0 -
Quest Bars. Blegh. The sweetener and chalkiness is terrible I really don't understand the love for them.
Shirataki noodles and kale. No thanks.1 -

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.0 -

Same here! I only know this as 'natto' in Japanese cuisine. Its the worst!0 -
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 nice0

Coconut anything. Blech! Not even a bottle of rum can make coconut taste better to me!0

ACK ACK GAG......Quinoa, bulgur, brown pasta!
...couscous, polenta, dreamfields pasta!
I tolerate brown rice.0 -
I tried microwave zucchini noodles. The kind in a steambag you just throw in the microwave. Way too watery and mushy.0

The name is deceiving. It's not cauliflower rice, it's riced cauliflower. Big difference because the first sets up expectations. I eat riced cauliflower when I want riced cauliflower, and rice when I want rice. Same with zucchini pasta, nope, it's spiralized zucchini and you eat it when you want fancy looking zucchini. Mashed cauliflower is not "cauliflower mashed potatoes". When you have no expectations for the diet version to taste and behave like the real version life is so much better.
If I want stew on rice the last thing I want is cauliflower soup, so I use real rice. It works really well in some applications like chicken and cauliflower "arancini" because the texture is right. If you want real arancini you'll be disappointed, but as its own thing, it's great.5 -
Coconut water... truly vile8
-
Kombucha....that stuff is NASTY.2 -
Kale.3

-
Vega protein powder, coconut water2
-
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.1 -
Kombucha - at first I liked it and drank it daily, now I gag just thinking about it!

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.0
-
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.0 -
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 makes2 -
Fat free cottage cheese is an abomination (slimy, tasteless texture with too much xanthan gum, locust bean, other chemical filler....full fat cottage cheese is the complete opposite).
Fat free cheese is just disappointing; the texture is all wrong...it doesn't melt correctly!8 -
Flaxseed oil. Gag!0

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 sauce3

ah! I've been wanting to try it...maybe not so much now0 -
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.1

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.0
