Food that looked like it would taste good, but when you tried it....Yuck!

I LOVE oysters - youngest son (8) tried them and was NOT a fan. But I was impressed - I didn't learn to love oysters until I was in my 30s, and never tried them till then, because they are the OPPOSITE of the op's title - they look as though they would not taste good, and yet they DO.

No, they don't.
That is all.

Perhaps the one you ate didn't; my scrumptious fresh Gulf oysters DO.

I cannot get into pate. It looks like cat food. I've never tasted cat food, but I imagine it tastes - like pate.

I don't like the fuzz on peaches. Love the smell of them and taste of the flesh - can't stomach the fuzz.

My wife thinks I'm crazy, because I don't even like the smell of peaches, much less the taste. Just can't stand them. Of course, that means there's more for her.

As for pate, surely cat food tastes better. It just has to.

Count me in with the ones who just won't do raw oysters, but smoked is a whole different story. Love them smoked.
