What Food Do you Dislike that Everyone Else Loves, and Why

[Fleur de Lis]

Coffee - I keep trying to like it, but I just don't!
Oatmeal
A lot of cooked veggies, especially mushrooms. I'll eat fresh veggies all day long, but no thanks if it's mushy when cooked.
Canned green beans
Stuffing
Any dish that's served with chopped up meat - I'll eat a few bites and then pick out all the meat.

Until a few years ago, I really didn't like chocolate. This drove me crazy because I love the texture of brownies, but didn't like the taste. I'm over it now. :P

i had that problem but "needed" to have something help me stay awake in class after working the midnight shift so i started with cafe mocha's and started adding more espresso til i was okay to try heavily half and halfed coffee. now i drink coffee and love it.

it took some "training" but it worked.

ps. personally i'm not a fan of store bought or restaurant carrot cake. my grandma made a mean carrot cake from scratch and i just have never been able to find that in a store bought or restaurant carrot cake. i keep crossing my fingers but i'll usually just end up taking two bites and being disappointed...

I have a lot of food "issues" so there are many things I can't eat...

- Any kind of fish and most other seafood: the smell of tuna literally makes me gag

- Any food that is grilled except for corn heavily wrapped in tin foil: when I was a kid my family teased me that I just didn't like the lines, but I really hate the grill flavor

- Most nuts: except for certain types of peanut butter, or very thinly chopped walnuts or almond that are mixed into other things (ie - cookies, cereal)

- Vitamin D, Skim, or Fat Free Milk: I only like 2% Milk or half and half, everything else tastes watery or too thick

- Beer: I just don't get it...I imagine this is what urine would taste like

- Left overs and most food prepared in the microwave: reheated foods taste awful to me

- Bacon, Mustard, Relish, and Mayo: yuck!
