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

Oh yeah. What could be more tasty than soggy Nilla wafers? (And is there any kind of banana pudding that doesn't have Nilla wafers?)

Seriously, I know the wafers aren't always soggy, but I still don't like it.

I hate it, too.

I knew you're good people.

I should have been more specific -- by "banana flavored" I meant "things flavored with banana," not "things with real or artificial banana flavoring."

Banana's aren't my favorite food by a long shot -- I rarely choose a banana if there are other options available, but I have learned to eat them when there aren't other choices and I'm hungry. But I don't want anything that tastes like banana except a banana straight out of the peel. A banana I can manage. Mushy banana I can't. Banana pudding, banana splits, bananas Foster, banana bread, banana pancakes . . . . yuck. It's just too much banana for me.

What in the world is wrong with you and SWTXBelle? All this time I thought y'all were good people. I feel misled.

We all have to have our quirks.

Did I mention that I don't like watermelon either? (Love shellfish, though. Other fish, not so much.)

Between this, no sandwiches and PUMPKIN...Mr. No Pumpkin Pie for Thanksgiving....you would starve 3 seasons of the year at my house and go hungry the other one.

LOL. I'll eat fish if it's what served, but I never get excited about it and I'd never choose it if beef, pork, chicken, shellfish, lamb, veal, venison . . . were available.

As for sandwiches, that's usually easy. Take all those things off the bread and eat them in non-sandwich form.

I'm not budging on banana or pumpkin, though.

I'm with you on that.

My grandmother used to make AMAZING sweet potato pie. Someone once served me a piece of what I thought was sweet potato pie but ended up being pumpkin. That ruined it for me forever.
