My dad used to eat raw oysters. They looked so good when he would eat them. I tried one and the slime made me gag.

As long as I've been living here I still don't get it. Add the Browns in too, and the Cavs.

Ohio peeps can flame away.

Other stuff I don't get:

Sonic. We finally got one and I was so disappointed.

Buffets (Golden Corral, Ponderosa, etc). Gross.

Grey's Anatomy. I am probably the only 20something in the world who doesn't watch it. I tried, I'm just not into it.

Ditto to all of the above, except for Sonic. Never had their food, but love the drinks there. In addition:

Sausage, Lamb, Red Meat
Burger King, both the food and that horrid King mascot of theirs
Country Music--old school and the garbage called country today. Ugh.
Grits
Law and Order, CSI, etc.
E.T. (yes, it of the movie and Reece's Pieces. Complete and utter overkill.)

Because it is Sunday and I heard my neighbor's weed whacker --

Gardening and all forms of yard work. Some people find peace pulling weeds and planting bushes. They love feeling nature run through their fingers. Taking something wild and turning it into something beautiful gives them great pleasure.

Not me. I hate every second of it. I've tried. I much prefer a concrete jungle.

I am an extremely picky eater so I won't even get into most of the foods I can't stand that everyone else loves. But I will say:
*Panera
*Gin
*Grey's Anatomy
*Twilight/True Blood/anything of that nature
*Spinning classes

Super-chocolately foods (chocolate frosted chocolate cake, chocolate ice cream, etc.).
Oysters - just EW.
Mixed meat food (I can handle chicken OR seafood OR venison, etc., but don't start putting them all together in one dish - that's gross. Stick with one meat product, use it sparingly, and move on.)
Food fried beyond recognition (I especially hate fried okra).
Really mushy vegetables cooked with chunks of fatty meat (just steam them, please!)

Now, I live in the deep South. Most things that everyone around me just loves to death and serves at just about every occasion fit into at least one of the above categories!

Wow...we have some picky eaters on GC!

I hate fast food! I'm a food snob!

Alot of my friends love weed, but I've never been a big fan.

KSUViolet06 09-20-2009 04:43 PM

Hookah and hookah bars. I don't know if this is just an Ohio thing or what, but alot of people love it and think it's so cool. It's gross.

While we're at it, let's add cigarettes to the list. Smoking is gross.

Bachelorette parties involving strippers and penis-shaped EVERYTHING.

Wow, according to this thread, I pretty much hate everything. I'm ok with that.

ZTAngel 09-20-2009 04:49 PM

Any pork products. Bacon, sausage, ham, etc. I find them all to be nasty. Except for baby back ribs. OMG....I could eat those everyday and be happy.

lovespink88 09-20-2009 05:00 PM

I totally agree with a bunch of the stuff already mentioned, especially

- Sushi (I mean... I guess I don't hate it. I gave it a fair shot, and tried it. It was okay, but I have NO idea what the big fuss is about)
- Chipotle
- Grey's
- Twilight...horrible, just horrible

DreamfulSpirit 09-20-2009 08:52 PM

Yeah I'm with everyone on "Twilight" and to add to that, I've never seen any of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies...don't want to, don't care to (and I have a friend who is OBSESSED with both, and thinks I'm just plain weird that I haven't seen or read them and don't care to either).

I CAN'T stand smoking...the smell of it is disgusting, almost makes me sick.

I don't like salad dressings. To me, its supposed to be a healthy thing to have a salad to eat, right? Well, when you put salad dressings on a salad, it turns it unhealthy (in my opinion).

Yes, this! Thank you! So don't get the appeal of this phenomena.

People think I'm nuts, but I hate cheesecake. It just doesn't taste good to me at all.

Same with cream cheese icing - I think it tastes slightly rancid.

I hate cheesecake! Everyone I know thinks I'm crazy.

IlovemyAKA 09-20-2009 09:22 PM

Freebirds. It's just nothing special to me.

summer_gphib 09-20-2009 09:33 PM

Yogurt-- I've tried every flavor, and I've actually tried to make myself like it. I'm also not big on beer or coffee.

ETA: Any and all seafood. It's just gross. It smells horrible. Oh, and I hate those really snobby people who think they are so awesome because they eat sushi. You're not that cool, trust me.
