Jimmy1104 Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 This topic came up at work and I thought it was a good question. Some of us have had a bad experience with some kind of food which completely turned us off to that food. For me it is celery. While I can eat it when minced in a salad, I will not eat a celery stalk. When I was in 5th grade, I remember leaving the lunchroom in school with a celery stick in my hand. While walking upstairs I was munching on that stalk when all of a sudden I got so stomach queasy I barfed. From that day on I will not eat celery. What food if any will you not eat?

Earth-Angel Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Green peppers. Not in any shape or form, not minced into a stew or chopped up into a salad - NO form whatsoever. Celery is not high on my list either... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edna Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 I am so polite I could eat anything when I´m invited to a place. But I truly hate celery, fish and all kind of meat that look like a dead animal... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earth-Angel Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Oh yes, anything from inside an animal...ugh, I'm so with you on that one Foxy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katie_sane Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Yeah, stuff like tripe, brains, liver. I won't eat brussel sprouts, seafood extender (does everyone else have that??), turkey and peas. I hate peas. I can't drink milk without retching either.

edna Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 ...make it three with me... When I say "animal" I mean "whole animal"... And seafood... Katie, I thought I was the only one who didn´t like seafood... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Joe Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 I've never met a vegetable I wouldn't eat. Love 'em! But I'm with you guys on animal innards. Yuck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katie_sane Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Edna, I like some seafood, like prawns and fish, but seafood extender is this awful stuff. Kinda like the hot dog of seafood. So awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenacious_Peaches Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 I will not eat brunswick stew. It's a southern thing, and it is foul and nasty and disgusting. They used to cook it with a whole hog's head in it. Egads. :insert vomiting graemlin: "spicy Southern specialty: chicken (or small game) with corn and tomatoes and lima beans and okra and onions and potatoes" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawna Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 I'm with youse kids on the animal innards, and I can't stand seafood, either. I like the frozen breaded fishsticks, but that's as far as it goes. But my singular experience with a particular food is pickles. When I was about 6, I'd never had a pickle before. But my sister loved them. So at a friend's house one day I stuffed an entire pickle in my mouth, thinking it would be great! My sister loves them, right? I hurled. And Brad wasn't even there to tell me he loved me that time. I can't eat them on anything, but if they're diced up really really really really really really really small, I can eat them in macaroni or potato salad. That's about it.

steel magnolia Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 I'll eat ketchup only because they put sugar and all the other stuff in it, but just plain tomatoes I can't stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daslied Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 OK. I was just curious, because it seems like a lot of people who like ketchup hate tomatoes. I guess the sugar and vinegar help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steel magnolia Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 I also think it's the texture of the tomatoes that I don't like. I won't eat shredded coconut because it feels like there's hair in my mouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daslied Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Biting into a tomato is kind of like biting into a head, isn't it? And thanks - I used to love coconut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earth-Angel Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 We love you Peaches!! To not give in to that temptation takes a lot of willpower! I quite like biting into a firm, juicy tomato, or those little cherry or vine tomotoes - they're all squishy and squirty! I don't like the wrinkly ones, as soon as the skin starts to pucker - in the bin or into the garden they go!! Green tomato relish or jam is good too!
