Popular foods you dislike

[Redway]

I'll go.

1. Ham

2. Canned tuna (the actual fish is lovely).

3. Eggs. I actually quite like scrambled eggs in Asian fried rice and can just-about tolerate certain types of omelette (provided they have enough cheese and/or tomato in them) but that's all I can tolerate. I absolutely hate, hate, hate boiled eggs.

Sweet Potato - Gross
Olives - Gross
Melon - Gross

Sweet Potato - gross
Olives - Gross

I love sweet potato (especially for chips, especially when duck fat's involved) but agree re. olives. Gross.

[Crimson Dynamo]

Cucumber
Watermelon

NASTY

[Niamh.]

Also don't love Spaghetti Bolognese , I wouldn't say I hate it but I don't enjoy it, it's a chore to eat it and sometimes I have to because everyone else in the world seems to love it :laugh:

[Jessica.]

The only food I really don't like is raw celery and I didn't really like some organ meats before I went vegetarian but that's all really. I have always been very adventurous with food and I love trying new and exotic foods to this day.

[Redway]

Cucumber
Watermelon

NASTY

Like watermelon, don't like cucumber (at all).

[caprimint]

Bread (if it's not toasted)
Rice (unless it's in the form of sushi and vine leaves)
Lettuce
Dark chocolate
Coffee
Cooked onions
Raw tomatoes
Cucumber (I love the flavour/taste in a drink though)
Mayonnaise
Butter
Olive oil

[Ammi]

…mushrooms, cucumber, bananas, olives, cottage cheese, tuna, salmon, prawns or any seafood, I’ll stop…

Bread: agreed. I only like the posh Italian-style bread if it’s not going to be toasted. I’m not much of a sandwich person, either. I like wraps but not sandwiches, particularly.

Also agreed re. lettuce, dark chocolate, raw tomato, mayo. (don’t mind it with chips but I’d still rather not) and … ya, cucumber’s rank all-’round.

[Redway]

…mushrooms, cucumber, bananas, olives, cottage cheese, tuna, salmon, prawns or any seafood, I’ll stop…

I don’t like banana, either (I’d rather eat plantain). It all started with a teacher in the lunch-canteen back in reception getting her bad breath all over my banana and since then I’ve never looked at bananas the same way.

I’m certainly no fan of cottage cheese, either.

[Redway]

Mustard, dill, pickles, hummus, anchovies … all a no from me, still.

[smudgie]

My biggest no no is boiled/mashed/ jacket potatoes.
I can eat some roasties but has to be particular spuds.
No offal or tripe either.

[Redway]

I don’t rate jacket potatoes, to be fair.

[Beso]

Twix

[AnnieK]

Mushrooms
Celery (can cope if it's cooked but raw is a non no)
Raw onion
Spring onions
Steak
Mussels
Lamb

…oh that would do it with the banana and form an attachment that would link back to that…strangely, banana is a flavour I love…it’s more the texture for me with foods that I struggle with…

Can the vegetarians please refrain from stretching the page.

Well, marmite by its very nature is at the very least as unpopular as it is popular. You either love it or loathe it.

[Redway]

I mean, yeah. Bourbons ain’t great.

[Ammi]

I forgot also most biscuits but especially custard creams and bourbons. :yuk:

…oh I’m with you with custard creams and bourbons, I’m not really much to eating biscuits in general but this one’s in particular and ginger snaps…probably my sweet weakness would be home baked cake…but I’m more a savoury person…

…I tried a cup of tea one time in childhood and it was a very traumatic experience…:laugh:…then after that I never drank a cup, not ever…but my mom still always would say to me, can I get you a cup of tea…:laugh:…she never stopped trying to give me a cup of tea…

It’s not even the taste I hate. It honestly makes me feel queasy. I tried it again last year to see if I’d changed but after a few sips I got that horrid watery feeling in my mouth like just before you’re about to throw up, so I stopped.

Pizza,Sweet Potato,and olives

[Benjamin]

Not many.

Cookies, chocolate hobnobs (mainly dark chocolate ones) and pink wafers.

There's always a first time Ben,lol, :wavey: Can you imagine Vanessa and I going for a meal,lol

[Benjamin]

I live for olives and my fave pizza is Hawaiian with mushrooms. Olives and anchovies on a pizza is lush. The only thing I’m not a fan of on pizza is chicken.


There's always a first time Ben,lol, :wavey:

Haha there is! :laugh:

[bots]

Sweet potato has to be the worst thing that god invented

[Jessica.]

You are all mad, sweet potato is so nice, sometimes when I'm making mashed potatoes I'll add in some sweet potato too, it really lives it up.

I didn't like olives when I first tried them but I kept trying and now I enjoy them very much. I always keep trying if I wasn't sure.

I guess I don't like most alcohol if you count that as a food. I like cider and other sweet ones, hate beer and most wines and spirits.

They looked and tasted like mashed carrots ?!?

…oh I do that also, Jess…for that I’ve always used white flesh sweet potato so that it just looks like regular potato…it really is so much more lovely with a blend of both types…

[Redway]

I don’t dislike alcohol and it’s not even about a short brush with borderline alcoholism making me a bit more discerning and see the bad in it more than the average person likes to admit. I just … I don’t eff with spirits anymore. I’m a light drinker these days so it tends to be beer (which is automatically strong if it’s Polish, which I venture into on occasion), non-white ciders and a bottle of Lambrini every so-often, for my sins. I don’t dislike spirits but I just don’t drink like that anymore. I’ll have the odd G&T here-and-there and that’s pretty-much it.

Have you actually eaten Chinese food in China?

[Mystic Mock]

Strawberry Gateau.

[GoldGlitter]

Mushrooms, Prawns, Avocado.

[Redway]

Mushrooms, Prawns, Avocado.

I generally agree re. avocado (the fruit itself is vile) but there’s at least a certain type of avocado oil (you can buy big bottles of it from Costco) that tastes just like normal vegetable oil when heated up but retains those avocado health-benefits. I rate that.

[Kazanne]

Such flattering, non-racist stereotypes. Well done.

Not racist at all just true,some of them eat anything that moves plus their cruelty is well known, My friend once had a Chinese meal,and found a cat chip in it,,so for me i would never ever touch one,so not racist just untrusting !!

The microchip with details in it which can be scanned if the pet goes missing

Ahh hahahaa that was pretty self explanatory. I need more coffee. :joker:

[Oliver_W]

I don't like any "roast dinner" type foods.

Mashed potato to me is just ... urgh ... I can't even think of having it in my mouth without gagging D: .

[Oliver_W]

Maybe they were out of potatoes?

Yeah I'm not a fan of cauliflower either unless it's cooked really well and there's no taste, I forgot marmite too it's GROSS and black tea is vile too

[caprimint]

Chinese food in general
Ohhh this too, most Chinese food is absolutely disgusting aside from dumplings/gyoza, legit don't get why it's such a popular takeaway :yuk:

Another one: milk chocolate. White chocolate and blonde chocolate are the only good ones.
