first of all if i lived in middle america (in my opinion anything west of jersey and east of cali, no offense) i wouldn't want seafood either but i Love it here.
i am not a big fan of most typical "american" type food or red meat.
i will eat almost anything served to me in china (try refusing food from a pushy asian grandma type and its delicious anyway) except:
boiled coke with herbs
i have eaten my share of chicken feet but no more
i love flavored parmalot with all my heart but please don't boil it
fish eyes
also i am repulsed by lots of southern stuff like grits, and chicken and waffles (sorry)
i don't know if i could marry someone who didn't appreciate a good new york bagel

Me too!
Fish is really the only type of meat I like. I love salmon! You can't beat me and make me eat catfish though. Hell no!:eek: :eek:

I can't believe the amount of people that don't like seafood! Although I do live where I can see the water, so I have no problem at all. But when I go to school, and I'm 6 hours inland from home, I won't even consider seafood at all. I'm all about the fresh stuff. Until I was 17 I didn't know there was such thing as canned Salmon. I thought everyone ate it fresh like me.. canned is just so... unnatural.
I also wanted to add Root Beer to my list. The smell makes ne nautious, I just can't stand the stuff, and everyone I know drinks it.

I also can't believe how many people don't like seafood. I absolutely loooove seafood. It's really just a way of life here. I'm really not that picky of an eater but I do have a few things that I will not touch.

Scrambled Eggs
Frog Legs
Shark, Nutria, Gator--ppl actually eat that around here
Buffalo--I have tried it before and will never touch it again
Green Olives
Cottage Cheese
Raw Oysters
Spinach--raw or cooked

Balut. Erg. It's something that is eaten in Hawaii and--OTW, help me here--I think it's a fertilized duck egg that's eaten before the duck fully develops. Our next-door neighbor, who's Filipino-Hawaiian, can't talk about it without retching.

you can add to my list :

yogurt
cottage cheese
plums
raisins
any kind of dried fruit
spam
pigs feet

TigerGirl52 05-29-2002 03:58 PM

Yeah...go ahead and add Spam to my list too. My grandma makes this sandwich spread with spam, cheddar cheese, and mayo--I turn green every time I see her make it. BLAH!!!!!

I have decided that I will not eat mexican food north of Austin. I was in Colorado in September and tried 2 different mexican food restaurants and lets just say it wasn't a pleasant experience.

I also will not eat any types of chicken-yuk!
meat
pork
squash (unless fried)
okra (unless fried or in gumbo)
corn unless it is on the cob
broccoli unless thoroughly cooked and tender and must have cheese
most fruit
coconut (I get sick when I smell coconut, even coconut tanning lotion)
zucchini
cookies
ice cream (once in a blue moon I will eat ice cream)
wheat bread

I would say that out of this list coconut and chicken are the main ones you couldn't pay me to eat

If you're ever in the Chicago area, though, you have to try El Tipico, on Dempster Street in Skokie for wonderful Mexican. Of course, this post is coming from a native Midwesterner who actually likes seafood, so I don't know how much I am to be trusted :) but try it, it's wonderful.

I would never not ever eat

Coconuts, definitely

Cucumbers...I used to give them to my little (blood) sister, and when I moved to Pittsburgh and met KappaStarboy, I would always give him mine when I got a salad. One week, my sister came to visit and we all went out to dinner. I ordered my favorite salad (Pittsburghers, it's all about the Buffalo Chicken salad at the Union Grill in Oakland), picked out the cucumbers, and gave them to KappaStarboy. My sister turned to him and said "Ah, I see that's YOUR job now." It was funny.

Celery
Cauliflower
Cottage Cheese
Corn Dogs
Coffee

and other food that doesn't begin with "C":
Octopus
Artichoke hearts
Mayonnaise
Sugared cereals

OMG, I forgot about cucumbers the most wretched of them all. In college when my roommate and I were in a fight, he use to put cucumbers in the fridge to piss me off otherwise they were not allowed near the house. The smell absolutely nauseates me. I love pickles though (as long as they are not kosher).
