    Mushrooms and cottage cheese. No matter how much I want to like them, I can't get past the texture of either.

    Heeding the mantra that "dark, green & leafy" are nutritional powerhouses, I've tried, on more than one occasion, to eat Swiss chard. Regardless of how I've had it prepared, all I can taste is an off-putting bitterness when I eat it. My wife loves it, but I won't be eating it again on purpose.

    The only recipes that I have for chard are not really diet-friendly. One involves garlic, cream, and parmesan cheese and the other has italian sausage and pasta. Both are yummy but not really healthy...

    Natto. It's fermented soybeans and full of vitamins and minerals, especially vitamin K. It tastes like soybeans in snot and mucus. The texture is quite off putting. Once was more than enough for me.

    Lol, I barely got past the smell. Nearly threw up at the taste and gagged at the texture.

    The old Japanese lady was highly amused. I think it tickled her fancy that I at least tried it. But I suspect my facial expression during the ordeal were quite entertaining. Trying to politely decline another bite with my extremely rudimentary Japanese made her laugh even more :tongue:

    Quest bars--

    But some people swear by them...funny how we're different!!

    Ditto.

    Quest bars are worst tasting and most expensive bars IMO.

    Everyone has their preference. Mine is Pure Protein which tastes fine to me and is among the cheapest.

    For lousy taste, I'd add protein cookies.

    Doesn't matter who makes them they all taste awful to me. Heating them up 1st helps a bit but they still taste lousy. Too many cals for too little protein and too much $ to foregive the poor taste.

    Another vote for chia pudding. I recently tried a Chia Pod from Whole Foods and it was like trying to eat a wad of homemade glue slime.

    If I don't LOVE it, I don't eat it! That includes fat free, sugar free and all that nonsense. I use and eat REAL food, just not as much. If I had one thing I tried and hated it would be cottage cheese.

    Most disgusting: Sugar-free syrup.

    There have been other disgustings, stevia, for one, but sugar-free syrup is most disgusting.

    Ha, I agree! Revolting. I should've returned it.

    I also loathed Halo Top ice cream, tried two flavors. Not for me.

    Read some more posts and was reminded of coconut water. :s

    Liver, Lima Beans, Peas—3 of the most repulsive foods on the planet, to me.

    Coconut water is pretty nasty.

    My family all ate it as I was growing up but I hate even the smell of them, even if a bit of their vinegar ended up on my plate it was enough to make me feel sick :unamused:

    Protein powder/bars/cookies. It's all disgusting! Not necessarily the taste, but the texture is abysmal. Can't stand any of these, which is a pity, since I really have a protein deficit in my diet.

    Other than that, I second the mentions of Konjak "Noodles", Stevia, some sugar-free sauces, coconut water, chia pudding (again the texture)

    I love cucumbers pretty much the only vegetable I'll eat. Sometimes I'll blend them with watermelon and make a sweet drink. So good.
