Goodness, after reading this thread my three year old doesn't seem like such a picky eater anymore. He refuses anything with tomato sauce on it and all meat, with the exception of bacon and fish sticks.

Everyone else loves, but I don't really like:

Fried calamari
The Office (the show, not my place of employment. :))
Nirvana


Okay, now pass that guacamole that so many of you don't like. I'll happily take it.

I'm really upset that Fox took Seinfeld and the Simpsons off during the 11pm slots for The Office. Plus it airs so much on TBS. Theres only so much one can take. You have to be in a mood for The Office.

Why dont they take off Friends?

See I like a lot of weird stuff: oysters, sushi, foie gras, chicken livers etc

There's some pretty boring stuff I cant stand though.
-Pork. Of any kind. I have REALLY tried to like it b/c DH LOVES pork (he says the pig is his favorite animal) I dunno, I just can't. I DO like ham and bacon though, just not sausage
-Any kind of fat/gristle on meat. I have to cut it off. It grosses me out entirely
-Celery. Makes me gag. Its the whole stringy texture thing
-Egg Nog
-Anything with that anise flavor-so Sambuca, black licorice, anisette toast. Totally out of the question.
-and to kinda go along with the above.......Jager. I cannot stand it. Makes me throw up in my mouth a little LOL

Well I do try sometimes to come up with a good one or two!

Oxtail is from the butt of the ox or sometimes the cow. It comes from the butt or so to speak. Depending on where you get it, it can be beefy and it provides a lot of flavor. But like I said, when cooked right, see above!

And you are bound to instantly fall in love with the person that makes 'em! Tell them not to forget the hoe cakes as well (they may call them johnny cakes).:D

I am. My mom was born and raised in the Caribbean, though.
