    Cheese! I used to be really addicted to it ate it like people eat sweets don't hate it but I don't crave it anymore.
    I try not to drink sodas but I still like it and have not lost my desire for it completely even though I try not to drink it at all.

    I lost taste in chips, particularly Lay's Sour Cream & Onion. Gets stuck in my teeth and between my gums. I hate having to pick them out. Such a hassle

    Peanut butter, fish, and I’m finding myself periodically disgusted and fascinated (all at once!) by fried foods. Oh, and chewing gum

    Bread, crackers, most chinese food, ground beef.

    Bread just doesn't have a lot of flavor to me. And even the ones that do have a flavor, I get bored of the taste of it. Same thing with crackers. For some reason, most chinese food is really off- putting to me. Ground beef tastes weird in general.

    I'm pickier I suppose about what I spend my calories on, but there's nothing I used to like that I don't like anymore. I just don't waste calories on things I don't care for (that I might have eaten before just because it was there).

    When I am in weight loss mode, I actually lose my taste for fruit and veg. I eat far more ‘healthily’ in terms of fibre and micros when eating normally. When losing weight, though, all I want is protein, sweet foods, and more protein - I have to force myself to bother with veg, which is not like me at all (normally I love them). So my diet is functional, but really pretty crappy. I also gain an extreme taste for salt when losing weight. It goes on everything.

    Things that just arent worth the calories to me anymore: liquids of any kind, most breads, croissants, cake, rice, pasta at restaurants, anything fried, chips and other savoury snakcs... id rather have sweets now for some reason

    Egg whites: did a ridiculous diet with these getting to lowest BF%....am just sick and traumatized from over dieting on these. Can't bring myself to eat these anymore

    Peanut butter, almonds, cashews, etc.: almost always over consume these (taste so good) but tear up my stomach so bad it takes at least 1-2 days after bingeing on these to overcome the GI cramping & discomfort. Also did have a very mild allergy at one point (face swelling, no rash) from over consuming mixed nuts (can not pinpoint exact allergy without being tested).

    Baker's chocolate: massive headaches and insomnia are not worth it anymore

    nothing really. I never was big on going out to eat anyway at fast food joints or restaurants only on rare occasions. Milk chocolate is kind of sweet to me now even though I still like it on sometimes but I prefer dark. There are many foods I don't enjoy much anymore but that happened years ago such as steak, cheeseburgers, anything doughy.

    Donuts are definitely one of these foods. I haven't exactly lost the taste for them, I never really liked them that much to start with. It's just that I became frugal with my calories so I can no longer tolerate the foods that were "meh, not the best thing in the world, but I'll eat it anyway" anymore. I can't eat foods I'm not too crazy about as if I have higher standards for my food now. By higher standards, I don't mean I'm becoming a food snob (I still like and eat instant ramen and like cheap chips), I just have a lower tolerance for sub-par tasting things.

    This is a blessing and a curse. Even though I don't eat donuts or soapy chocolate or randomly snack on random meh tasting foods, I also find myself unable to eat most protein bars because candy bars taste better for the same calories, and "diet" versions of some things are out of the question.

    Seems a general consensus, many similar foods.
    Deep fried, other than McD fries (bad weakness here.) Love McD nuggets, was bad and got a 4 piece last week. Got to nugget 3 and was like...nah, I'm good. You can really taste the grease on the roof of your mouth now! Even other fried foods, like fish and chips has no appeal now. One bite off the Mister's is great, then I'm all set with it.
    Kraft Mac. We have been using non dairy milk here for years, but even so, makes me feel yuck now. Goodbye childhood staple!
    Unless it's dark chocolate, most candy is unappealing. Sometimes I'll want MandMs, but I can't eat peanuts right now :( I keep some real dark chocolate on hand for a sweet treat. Once in a great while I'll have a hard candy from the kid's box.
    Ice cream. This surprises me. Dairy is bad for me and currently eliminating coconut and nuts, so ice cream is already a rare "treat" as I know I'll pay for it. Last two times I've had any, just a single scoop!, I really wasn't impressed. Not even my favorite flavors did it for me, I would've preferred a naughty calorie kind of chocolate bar or potato chips!
    Losing interest in red meats. I still love them, but they've been demoted for sure. Not enough veggies in a steak dinner now compared to calories and many mashed potatoes haven't been up to my standards of late so typically I ask the waitress for "yea, that chicken there, but none of that marinade, and skip my starch I want double veggies."
    Chinese food. I KNOW I am allergic to carrot now, so I can't trust most oriental dishes. Alternatives are usually deep fried nonsense. I'm avoiding shellfish for a bit, so the rarely found stir fry I could have is now out. Mostly, knowing I can get hives from something like fried rice just makes me uninterested in any of it.
    All Dunkin Donuts. They revamped menu (meaning, got rid of everything decent in one form or another.) The only dairy alternative to coffee is almond milk (zomg, should I even start on that idiocy?) Sometimes donuts are tempting, but I will NOT waste my calories on one at this time, everything else is straight white carbs basically. I haven't been there in 6 weeks, used to go several times a week for at least coffee.
    Burger King. Won't touch it with a ten foot pole. KFC, won't even look at it, just the thought of the grease is nauseating. Suspected allergies steer me clear of Taco Bell.

    Coffee creamer (hazelnut) - went black on my coffee to save calories. Added some creamer one morning as a treat, and it tasted like chemicals.

    I ordered my previously favorite pizza this weekend, and it wasn't nearly as good as I remember.

    Potato chips are not as good as I remember and I'm done after just a few. That never used to happen.

    McDonald's burgers are GROSS now. I can't do it. Their Southwest Salad is yummy, though.

    I've lost my taste for the garbage versions of the good stuff, a treat these days is more carefully selected. I have no problem at all walking past the *kitten* supermarket donuts any more but if we're going by Krispy Kreme we're singing a different song.

    Pop. That's about it. Been over a year since having any.

    Still like donuts, mac'n'cheese, lunchmeat, cake, chocolate.

    Me too... I don't crave soda at all anymore

    I second the sweetened coffee drinks mentioned above. Also any type of sweetener in tea/coffee, artificial or otherwise...and any creamer other than milk (dairy or almond milk are fine to me). I used to love all of the flavored creamers but now I hate the taste of them.

    I still like most sweets, but also like someone mentioned above, I've lost a taste for most of the prepackaged stuff and would rather have "better" baked goods, my own or from a nicer bakery, when I do have them. No more Hostess or Little Debbie...tastes waxy and weird to me now.

    I would mention chips - almost never eat them now - but I was never a big chip fan anyway.

    Sadly, I have also lost my enjoyment for crappy sweets. I don't enjoy bread as much either.
