Foods u dont like that most everyone else does

[heelmanwilm]

The deviled egg thread got me thinking. Theres a few things i just dont like that others love.

Green bean casserole. Hate it. Makes me gag. I Like all the ingredients separately or in other dishes. But for reasons i dont know i cant stand even the sight of it.

Soups. Most all of them. I dont hate them like gb casserole but given the choice i NEVER choose to eat it and aside from seafood chowder never ever prepare it or eat it at home.

Nuts. I like to snack on them (twss) but i cant stand them in food. Like on a salad especially. Almonds on green beans is just stupid.

Bonus segment: condiments

Catsup. Why put ice cold sweetened tomato puree on hot food? Overrated.

Mustard. Dont own any. Overpowers anything u put it on.

Sweet relish. Why does this even exist?

Apparently seafood

 

[tarheel0910]

Add me to the no seafood group of posters.

 

[heelbent]

I eat just about everything, but here's a few I have major problems with.

Cannot stand, period...

Cashews
Celery
Marshmellows

Iffy...

Carrots...hate'em raw, love'em cooked
Mushrooms...eat'em raw, hate'em cooked

I'm the only one in the family that eats...

Cottage Cheese

 

[coolwaterunc]

Other than sea trash, guacamole is the only thing I can think of. People seem to love the stuff, but I can't get over the fact that it's green mush. I can't do it.

 

[tarheel0910]

I can't stand canned vegetables. I'm not a big vegetable person to begin with and when you put them in a can I just can't do it. I think it goes back to me growing up on a farm. My grandmother had a garden that had peas, beans, corn, etc. Eating something that was literally straight from the garden is so much better than canned mush.

 

[coryfly]

Oreo cookies. Pies, basically any kind except pecan and don't love those.

Bananas.

I'll join heelbent in disliking cashews and marshmallows as well, which includes smores.

 

[cletusnow]

Seafood
Any kind of premade ‘salad’ such as potatoe, chicken, tuna, pasta, slaw. Basically anything other than a sandwich that contains mayo or salad dressing.
Pickles
Sour Cream
Tacos

There's hardly anything that I won't eat . . I love almost all the veggies & fruits, and all the meats.

I also love seafood, but, if, clams are available, they'll be the last thing I put on my plate . . I'll eat them, but, I'm not that fond of 'em.

 

[dadika13]

Oreo cookies.

 

[strummingram]

I hate collard greens. I mean, I abhor the stuff. I'd rather eat dirt.

 

[ticket2ride04]

Miracle Whip

Canned foods

Casseroles in general

I'll ride with you on this. I don't eat ketchup, period. I have a theory that anything you love and consume en masse as a young child (7 or younger)... you grow to hate that food item later in life. Thus, these three things that most people love, I gorged on as a kid and now I hate them as an adult:

- Ketchup
- Raisins
- Marshmellows

All the other stuff I dislike doesn't qualify as "things most everyone else likes" such as sprouts. Do olives and broccoli count? If so, I don't like those either. Like @tarheel0910 I'm not a huge vegetable person, but I'll still eat a large variety of vegetables, some alone, some as part of a dish -- green peppers, red peppers, onions, cucumbers, pickles, carrots, celery, banana peppers, jalapenos, tomatoes, etc.

 

[TarHeelNation11]

Ohh!!! I've got a good one that everyone makes fun of me for not liking.

Root beer. Cannot stand it.

 

[TarHeelMark]

Mushrooms. Hate the texture of them. Blech

 

[toophly1124]

Root beer. Cannot stand it.

Ive been racking my brain trying to figure out something I don’t like and here it is. Root beer disgusts me. Kudos.

 

[tarheel0910]

Root beer disgusts me.

Count me in as well.

It's just so sweet, but like in a bad way. I love my sugary drinks such as coke, tea, mountain dew, et al. But root beer is just like.... yuck.

 

[tarheel0910]

I'll still eat a large variety of vegetables... tomatoes

Are you against fruit in general or just tomatoes?

 

[grillheel]

Cranberry sauce, oysters, coconut, navy beans, stewed tomatoes, fish sticks, salmon patties, fish stew, boiled peanuts (sorry @JuleZ '02 HEEL; btw, my wife loves them), root beer

 

[TarHeelNation11]

Lol, dammit.

I don't get the boiled peanut thing either. Regular salted peanuts are much better.

 

[tarheel0910]

Lol, dammit.

Interesting note about tomatoes being a fruit. None other than the United States Supreme Court issued a legal opinion that tomatoes are a vegetable because people are too dumb to know they are a fruit. So, in a court of law tomatoes are vegetables. In the real and accurate world, they are a fruit.

 

[toophly1124]

oysters

Just when you think you know a feller.

 

[gunslingerdick]

Chicken - I largely dislike it because of having to prepare it. It's all slimy, gristly and just gross. I mean, I'll eat it, but not that often.

coffee - I love the smell and the taste of coffee. But drinking hot drinks is weird to me. I drink to be refreshed. Why would I want to sit around and sip on scalding hot liquid. I've gotten in to cold brew lately.

birthday cake - if disgusting. That icing is not meant for human consumption.

That's about it. There are certain foods I don't prefer, but I'll eat them when I have limited choices.

 

[coolwaterunc]

Mushrooms. Hate the texture of them. Blech

Mushrooms are one of those things that I can eat if they're mixed with something, but by themselves, I find them disgusting.

 

[JuleZ '02 HEEL]

Keep reading through this thread and haven't seen anything yet I wouldn't eat. Obviously like some more than others, but man I guess I just like food.

And boiled peanuts are great. It's fine if y'all weirdos don't like 'em; more for me at the tailgate.

 

[Littlejon]

Not much I can’t stand but I’ll give it a shot:

Don’t care for cooked carrots. I can eat them raw all day, but cooked - don’t like them

Root beer. Not necessarily a “food” but I don’t like it

Boiled peanuts are, well, not pleasant. Slimy and not really appealing. Love me some roasted peanuts though

Chitlins. Never tried them. Never will

Aside from that, I can’t really think of anything else

 

[coolwaterunc]

But drinking hot drinks is weird to me. I drink to be refreshed.

A hot drink on a cold day is just as refreshing as a cold drink on a hot day.

 

[coolwaterunc]

I never realized so many people dislike root beer. You guys are weird.

 

[gunslingerdick]

A hot drink on a cold day is just as refreshing as a cold drink on a hot day.

It's ghey. NTTAWWT.

 

[gunslingerdick]

I don't ever drink just root beer (I don't really ever drink sodas anymore), but every now and then I'll get a root beer float at the ice cream shop. That shit is bomb.

 

[WhatTheHeel?]

Chocolate
Coffee (I know, not a food)
Mushrooms
Pickles (or anything with white vinegar)
Pickled Beets (though I'm not sure "everybody else" likes them?)

 

[prlyles]

I hate collard greens. I mean, I abhor the stuff. I'd rather eat dirt.

Cooked right collards are wonderful

 

[prlyles]

Chitlins. Never tried them. Never will

I've had chitlins but I'm not a big fan

 

[BillyL]

Cooked right collards are wonderful

Yep . . and with a little red wine vinegar they are delish.

It's 'Food Week' here on OOTB . .

 

[TarHeelMark]

I don't get the boiled peanut thing either. Regular salted peanuts are much better.

At Keenan one fine Saturday years ago, I mistakenly bought some boiled peanuts, thinking I was getting good ol’ roasted peanuts (wasn’t paying attention - could’ve been the alcohol). Anyways, I was hungry so I tried them... and they are about the most disgusting thing I’ve ever eaten.

 

[Hark_The_Sound_2010]

coffee - I love the smell and the taste of coffee. But drinking hot drinks is weird to me. I drink to be refreshed. Why would I want to sit around and sip on scalding hot liquid. I've gotten in to cold brew lately.

I'm somewhat with you here. I always go with iced (or cold brew). I never drink hot coffee unless it's my only option - as in, there's not even any ice cubes available to put into the hot coffee.

 

[MWHeels]

Chicken Pot Pie

It's weird. I have two brothers and they can eat their weight in oysters, even raw. My mother made me eat them prepared several ways, never raw, but I HATED them. I don't know what it is and I wish I liked them because I know a bunch of people who will travel miles to go to a good oyster bar, but I'll have to pass.
