There is a lady in our church who is very enjoyable to be around. I've got out to eat with her and her husband several times. And she hates cheese. She orders lasagna and asks to not have the cheese put in it. How does one make a good lasagna wihtout cheese? I can't imagine not liking any cheese whatsoever. She's not lactose intolerant. It's not a big deal, but I find it interesting.

AmbiePam My late aunt hated cheese and would go to any lengths to avoid it. Personally I love it and could not understand her objection to it. However, as I got older I realised that we are all different and that she was perfectly entitled to her dislikes as I am to mine. I cannot eat cooked raisins for example. P1ke

The dislike of cheese seems so unusual. Cooked raisins I can understand, lol.

Yeah, it is kinda hard to imagine this especially for Pizza lovers,lasagna,cheeseburgers,grilled cheese,omelets and all kind of other cheesy goodness stuff. I couldn't imagine my life without cheese. I'd be in real trouble if I was allergic to cheese. Even when I went on a diet I got reduced fat and fat free cheese not as tasty but better then doing without.

I don't like cheese as much I don't mind grated cheese or cheese melt but I never eat sliced cheese if I do that means I'm forcing myself I used to puke when drinking milk, but I got over that years ago but cheese I don't think I can get over it

I don't like sliced cheese either. I know it may be silly, but it tastes more 'processed' to me.

Brie just looks odd to me. The texture alone is enough to give me the heebie jeebies.

I love cheese specifically mozzarella and melted cheese in pizza and pasta. But I mostly do hate cheese in junk foods and popcorn. I hate its taste, its smell and the red orange color in the fingers after somebody finished eating.

I tend to prefer cheese in freshly prepared food too. Not junk food or anything else like you mentioned.

I have a colleague of mine who cannot stand cheese. She wont eat the food if there is cheese on the plate. She even smells cheese from miles apart and it really makes her stomach upset. I am the opposite since I am a cheese lover. © ronaldinu 2008

Doesn't like cheese? Who doesn't like cheese? I love cheese. The only kind I would prefer not to eat is Limburger.

I'll never know if I like Limburger. I can't stand the smell long enough to try it.

I love, love, love cheese...just call me mouse. My mother was kind of like that though about not liking one particular cheese. Parmesan. She wouldn't have it if you gave her a zillion dollars. There's a story behind the why. When she was younger and living with her mother and grandmother, her grandmother used to store detergent soap flakes in glass jars. She also used to store grated Parmesan cheese in jars as well. I think you might guess where this is heading...LOL. Yep,one day when having spaghetti and meatballs she reached for one of those jars and sprinkled the "cheese" on it...wasn't the cheese though but the soap flakes....

I have never met anyone who did not like cheese. I love cheese. I can understand not liking certain cheeses, but all of them? There are a few that I do not care for, but in general I love cheese. I am so lucky I am not lactose intolerant.

I have a relative who is lactose intolerant, but eats dairy anyway. She'll take the discomfort over abandoning cheese or ice cream.

I looove cheese. Well here in Quebec, Canada cheese is very popular. My favourite is provologne cheese. It has a strong taste and it give a better flavour. However my family don't like cheese. I am born in Canada so i am used to the common food here. However, my family were immigrants so they aren't fond of cheese. They would try it out but they say it stinks hahaha On the other hand, they enjoy pizza :P

Hey ambie! That is so ridiculous! How can you eat lasagna without cheese? That is impossible! How can anyone go through life hating cheese? What is lasagna without cheese? I have never even heard of such a thing? And they actually served it to her that way? How could they do that? Lasagna is made in a huge pan, so how do you possibly take out the cheese. Forgive me, but I am so trying to figure out how a restaurant would possible be able to honor such a bizarre request! It does seem like a big deal to me!

She ended up with noodles and meat sauce. I don't know if they just scraped the cheese off and put everything back together or what...

I love cheese, so I was surprised when my dermatologist told me not to eat cheese in the evening! I don't know why, but I did not ask either! I still eat it at dinner time though!

My brother will eat cheese, but not melted, like on a cheeseburger. He will eat a hamburger with a slice of cold cheese on it though. I think that is weird, not to like the melted cheese too. I love cheese so much I'll eat it any way.

That is indeed interesting... a lot of the most delicious food in the world involves cheese... so i can't imagine how she can enjoy pasta or pizza without cheese... i love cheese so i cannot imagine other people not liking it... i can eat cheese all day... and would usually have some ready for shaghetti or any dish that i can put some cheese on it...

My husband hates cheese. He will eat pizza if it has toppings on it and he will eat grilled cheese sandwiches but then he drowns it in mustard so he can't taste the cheese. He really doesn't like any dairy products....sour cream, cream cheese, milk (though he will eat cereal) or yogurt. He loves ice cream though...go figure. I love cheese and all the others. The one thing I am not too crazy about is ice cream, I have to have a taste for it. I guess opposites do attract.

Yes i know few people who dont like cheese .. Its not that every people should like cheese its depends on what they have given to eat in their early life and more over few people find it not good or few might have seen these during preparation so few feel uncomfortable to eat Its totaly depends on the person taste... few people dont like nonveg it doesnot mean that they shoul eat only .... its their taste and i think they enjoy these...

The first person I ever met that didn't like cheese was in 1999. He is my friend's brother. Ir was Thanksgiving day and I brought over the Mac and Cheese. Boy was I surprised to find out he didn't like nor eat cheese. I understood since chocolate was on my list of DO NOT EAT foods. I've since then totally changed and now will eat some chocolate (milk chocolate).
