I think most people have at least one food they have tried that they cannot eat again. Maybe when you were little your mom made you sit and eat a certain food even though you gagged on it. Maybe you tried a food as an adult and you just cant eat it again because it tasted so bad. Mine is creamed corn. I hate it. The taste and texture its like someone ate it and then tossed their cookies (or corn in this case) and thats what you get to eat. I can't even look at it or think about it without gagging. Its so disgusting. I also hate lemon merengue pie. Most people dont understand that. But I never was fond of the taste of lemon. Ok tell me what you absolutly hate and why.

I'm really picky, so there are a lot of things I don't like. One that really makes me feel sick is cooked broccoli, though. It just smells so terrible, and it looks even worse. My husband loves it, though. He hated giving it up while I was pregnant, and he is happy as can be that our son now likes it, too.

I absolutely hate liver and onions. I can't even stand the smell of it cooking. It is disgusting beyond measure. I unfortunately have a son that loves the stuff, and he orders it wheneve we go out to eat. He knows i'm not going to cook it for him!

I used to hate liver, in fact when i was little I tried it and gagged on it. But then my mother in law made it, in a gravy sauce. I tried it and it wasnt so bad. Maybe your son will get marreid to some one who likes liver and onions lol

I absolutely loathe pasta! I hate the sight of it, the smell which I find gut-wrenching, like old socks and the mess it makes of the pots after it's cooked, another thing I won't miss when I leave! My housemate loves the vile stuff. I also hate squid! I tried it once, never, ever again, tasted of rubber ewwwww!

After reading your discussion and thinking about what i hate to eat I'm feeling quite ill at just the thought. I hate tripe, it's feels slimy and is sickly looking. I also hate swede, turnip and parsnip.

I have never tried tripe except mixed in potted meat. I doubt i would like it either. I am not crazy about turnips and never had swede( dont even know what that is) Or parsnips.

I also hate creamed corn! How nasty is that- My daughter also won’t eat it- and every once in a while my sig. other wants it- Gross! I won’t make it- It is exactly – as if- someone puked—or cat puke! I also hate anything Chinese- I have heard way too many rumors on what the food is – and the restaurants in town aren’t the cleanest- so I stay the heck away from it- My daughter has tried it and thinks it is ok once in a while- Not at my house!

Hi there mssnow, hope all is well! Their are 2 foods that I really do not like! I would have to say liver & onions is the first. I can't stand the smell, taste, or sight of it. My poor hubby loves it, but I never cook it for him lol. The second one is anchovis! Bleck! The very first time I tried them was on a pizza and I gagged! It was really nasty! Thwe weird thing though is that when I make ceasar salad I make it with the oil dressing and it calls for anchovi paste and I can eat that no problem!

I can't stand liver or any type of gizzards. Ewwww! lol A lot of people like liver and onions, I cringe when I hear that. I can't eat Navy beans either for the smell makes me so sick to the stomach. I can't even be in the same room when they're cooking.

I don't like junk food. I prefer fresh food like vegetable. But I dislike the sour vegetable which mixing with raw rice. It is not good for stomach after putting many days in the jar.

I'm not really fond of eating vegetables but I'm still trying, though there are some that I really don't like to eat. Among my list are ampalaya (bitter melon), okra and onion.

i do not know you if you know this so called food Balut. i have heard mostly when foreigners eat it, they would really like it but for me yucky. one day my sister forced me to eat balut and that egg was 14 days and she said it is good and better than the usual 18-days balut being sold at the market because the baby inside is not really big and hairy. i really ate everything but after i swallowed everything i rushly grabbed a coke to get off with that taste. and i have told myself, that would be my first and last and i will never eat balut again. it is so yucky for me really for others, they really like it. they even finish ten eggs at night.laugh out loud.

Tomatos! But I can eat them stewed, or I sometimes like Ketchup. But a raw tomato is just awful to me! I dont like them in my salad nor on my burger or sandwhich. The smell the texture and the aciditiy of it just makes me gag. lol Which gets me to thinking, I orderd a Ceasar Salad not long ago at a restaurant and they put diced tomatos on it. The waitress really looked at me strange when I asked her for one without them. Ceasar Salads dont come with tomatos do they? LOL
