Foods that everybody else likes but you

[The Avatar]

Well, here comes another food thread.

Personally, I've never been a big Sushi fan, although I don't hate it.

[XOMiss_Samantha]

For the longest time I hated shrimp. I thought it was the grossest food on the planet.


I've learned to like it now.

I used to hate shrimp aswell, but about 5 years ago, I started to love it. Now a food everybody else likes that I don't has got to be eggs. I just can't eat eggs, and being inclose distance of someone eating them can even make me gag. I'll eat certain food that uses eggs as an ingredient like cake of course, because they are so mixed into the food you can't even taste or tell if they are there. However, anything else eggwise such as sunnyside up eggs, scrambled eggs, and omletes, forget it.

[The Avatar]

Wow, I also used to hate shrimp

[JShaggy]

I couldn't stand shrimp at one time because it always left a disgusting taste in my mouth.

I've grown to enjoy shrimp a lot now then back then, but it depends on how its cooked.

[Matt Hazuda]

Hot dogs are totally disgusting to me. I have never liked them.

[Anima]

Brace yourself for this, because apparently, I am a freak in the human female community.

I.

HATE.

Chocolate.


*GASPERS!!*

[Kury Wagner]

I still hate shrimp, so I have you all beat. =P

I also dislike squash. It's one of the very few vegetables that I don't like. =(

[Zubby]

I don't like cucumbers. Everyone thinks that's crazy, but I've never liked them. I like how they smell, but not the taste or texture.

My thoughts exactly. I also hate salad, potato salad, cottage cheese, and for some reason fish. I'm not sure why exactly I hate fish, because I used to like it.:shrug: There is plenty of other stuff too, but I can't remember what it is at the moment.

[XOMiss_Samantha]

Chocolate..hotdogs..cucumbers...all my favorite foods:crying:

I thought of another one I hate.

Apples.

I hate apples with a passion.

[.bg]

Agreed. I also cannot stand shepherds' pie.

Ugh, I don't like salad, and potato salad either. I also hate ketchup. I will not eat anything with ketchup, or I won't eat a hamburger or sandwhich with a lot of certain foods such as tomatos, lettuce, pickles (I like pickles regularly, but not on my burgers), onions, mayonaise, mustard (I'll eat on a hotdog and french fries and chicken) etc.

[KuwabaraTheMan]

Shrimp is awesome, don't hate on it.

I hate almost all vegetables, so any ones that people like (carrots are popular, aren't they?) would count.

I also hate Bannanas, French Toast, Turkey, Chicken(I like Fried Chicken, but not chicken prepared in other ways, and even then I only like the dark meat), and most fish. Those are all somewhat popular.

[Kury Wagner]

I also hate ketchup.I don't really like ketchup because of how vinegar-y it is. Same reason I can't stand some hot sauces. I want to taste the food I'm putting the sauce on, not the vinegar in the sauce.

Shrimp is awesome, don't hate on it.*hates on shrimp* =P

[KuwabaraTheMan]

*hates on shrimp* =P

Oh, I have my ways of persuading you...;)

[Kevin the Geek]

With the exception of French toast with syrup, I can't stand eggs.

I also don't care for birthday cake. Sometimes, I don't see how people can eat this, as it seems like I'm eating a ton of frosting instead of cake. I'd rather eat a slice of unfrosted cake, instead.

[Mr. Pedro]

To this very day, I wince in pain at the very sight, smell or mention of cheese. Chalk it up to a bad, repressed childhood experience or something. =/

And I'll also gladly take my seat on the shrimp-hating wagon. They're nothing more than the ocean's answer to terrestrial insects when you think about it.

[silverfox1027]

I really hate sushi. Everyone I know loves it, but I just can't eat it.

I also hate ketchup, mayonnaise, blue cheese, and basically all types of cake.

[Michael24]

I hate salad, seafood (though I used to eat Fish Sticks when I was little and liked them), and beans, to name a few.

I also hate gravy, ketchup, mustard, and barbecue sauce.

[Rocketboy]

Brace yourself for this, because apparently, I am a freak in the human female community.

I.

HATE.

Chocolate.


*GASPERS!!*

Freak.

I've always hated Pizza. (Lawl hypocrisy)

[Dr.Pepper]

I hate watermelon and proud of it.

[The Avatar]

Wow, me too.

I've never really liked Green Apples, or Green Grapes. Also, I don't really like tomatoes. Or Chocolate ice cream.

[Viper]

The one food I will not eat is: peanut butter & jelly sandwiches!:ack:

I've never liked them as a child and I still don't today!:sad:

[Wounded_Dragon]

Fried spam. Everyone else I know hates it with a passion.

[Ishtar]

The one food I will not eat is: peanut butter & jelly sandwiches!:ack:

I've never liked them as a child and I still don't today!:sad:

I was never crazy about them either.

[Wolfie~Giri]

I've never liked them as a child and I still don't today!:sad:

I too hate Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwiches to this day. It used to drive my mom crazy, when it came to packing my lunch at grade school...

I also cannot stand any type of fish. Certain seafood is alright; like scallops or baked clams... But fish... >_>

[JAG]

I also hate gravy, ketchup, mustard, and barbecue sauce.


I agree about mustard, but as for the other stuff: Blasphemy. Vile, disgusting blasphemy. Shame on you, sir.:mad:

And cake?! How could anyone hate cake? I've lost all faith in mankind.:(

[PRdude]

I don't like bananas, and the smell of tuna fish and potato salad are repulsive to me.

[Michael24]

I agree about mustard, but as for the other stuff: Blasphemy. Vile, disgusting blasphemy. Shame on you, sir.:mad:

Haha!! Yeah, I always found that they just ruin the taste of stuff for me. Ketchup on fries? Barbecue sauce on my hamburgers? Gravy on my mashed potatoes? Yuck! Completely throws it off for me.

But I love cake. Heck, sometimes we buy one from the store just to have it as a snack when there's not even a birthday coming up. :D I love chocolate bundt cake. Mmmmmm!!

[Jave]

Eh, I can eat pretty much anything that's billed as food by my local standards.

Except raisins.

[Master Moron]

I don't like cucumbers. Everyone thinks that's crazy, but I've never liked them. I like how they smell, but not the taste or texture.

They really don't have much of a taste, though...

[Dr.Pepper]

I don't care for the frosting on the cake, so there is way better desserts out there IMO.

[Master Moron]

With the exception of French toast with syrup, I can't stand eggs.

I also don't care for birthday cake. Sometimes, I don't see how people can eat this, as it seems like I'm eating a ton of frosting instead of cake. I'd rather eat a slice of unfrosted cake, instead.

The frosting is the reason people eat cake, though. I've known people who buy containers of frosting and eat it plain.

I used to hate shrimp aswell, but about 5 years ago, I started to love it. Now a food everybody else likes that I don't has got to be eggs. I just can't eat eggs, and being inclose distance of someone eating them can even make me gag.

I've got a question for those who hate eggs. Do you hate stuff like mayonnaise and marangue that's made from mostly eggs?

[Ishtar]

I only like mayonnaise if it's used for Tuna.

[The Wolverine]

I used to love fish. Then last year I developed food poisoning a few hours after I ate it. Now I can't stand the sight of fish.

[Master Moron]

Apples.

You're probably buying the wrong kind of apples. For instance, macintosh apples suck. They're pretty much only good for baking. But, pink lady apples are the apples of the Gods.

The one food I will not eat is: peanut butter & jelly sandwiches!:ack:

I've never liked them as a child and I still don't today!:sad:

It's probably the cheap peanut butter you're using. Skip the skippy and buy some Smucker's all natural peanut butter. Also, maybe you need a different kind of jelly. There's so many different kinds. There's cherry, strawberry, pineapple, blueberry. Mmmmm...I'm getting hungry just thinking about it.

I don't like bananas, and the smell of tuna fish and potato salad are repulsive to me.

You're not supposed to smell it, you're supposed to eat it.

I only like mayonnaise if it's used for Tuna.

What about merengue(I know I spelled that wrong. But, I'm talking about that stuff you put on pies)?

[Ishtar]

What about merengue(I know I spelled that wrong. But, I'm talking about that stuff you put on pies)?

Oh, yeah I'll eat that.

[XOMiss_Samantha]

Blah. All apples taste bad! And they hurt my teeth alot :(

[Ishtar]

The only thing that I don't like about apples sometimes is the skin.

[J'onn J'onzz]

I don't like meat in general, really.

[PRdude]

I don't like meat in general, really.

I take it you're a vegetarian, like myself?

[Tenku]

Well...

I don't like pie. There's just something about it... and chocolate. Specifically, dark chocolate. Yeuck.

[JShaggy]

I don't like cucumbers. Everyone thinks that's crazy, but I've never liked them. I like how they smell, but not the taste or texture.
I'd be contradicting myself if I said I couldn't stand cucumbers, yet I enjoy pickles, which are pretty much cucumbers dipped into vinegar.

Oh yeah, I can't stand coconut. The taste is just too bland for my mouth.

[The Wolverine]

You're probably buying the wrong kind of apples. For instance, macintosh apples suck. They're pretty much only good for baking. But, pink lady apples are the apples of the Gods.

No, McIntosh apples are awesome.

[purplehairedwonder]

My mom tells me I'm a picky eater but then I look at a large majority of the people I know and tell her to be thankful I'm not as picky as them :sweat:

Anyway, I dislike dark chocolate (too bitter), coconut, tomatoes (and yet like ketchup and salsa), raspberries, blueberries, cherries, squash, rhubarb, onions, mustard (though I seem to be acquiring a taste for it), BBQ sauce (bad experience of smelling it way too early in the morning), hot dogs, bratwurst, peppers, grits (which is terrible for a southern girl), and yeah...

I'm willing to try just about anything once but if I don't like it, I don't like it.

[Elven Moon]

Grapes Tried to eat them a few times, but they're so squishy and juicy - gross :yawn:

Fish I have never liked it. I don't really know why.

Bananas It makes me sick - literally.

Eggs Unless it's an ingredient in baked goods, I will not eat them.

[True Noir]

Chicken, turkey, or any sort of dry meaty stuff and any types of pie.

[ToOn~g@l]

I used to love eggs for breakfast especially scrambled eggs, nowadays I'll take a few bites and push it aside. They don't taste as good as they used to.

And I hate boiled carrots, too mushy and soft.

[Chad Bonin]

Pickles, cereal in a bowl of milk...

[PRdude]

And I hate boiled carrots, too mushy and soft.

I started to prefer uncooked carrots after some time myself.

[Charlie]

Bok Choy, stuff is nasty.

[Draft]

strawberrys and eggs

[Vermunium]

Steamed vegetables! I hate those with a passion! Bananas as well. I'm also not a big fan of roast beef. I've had too many bad experiences with it, like getting sick every time I've had a roast beef sandwich over the course of the last decade.

[Kuroba]

Broccoli and Cheese- I like broccoli by itself or in something like chinese food, but broccoli in cheese fondue or a cheesy-based soup= yuck.

Beef, pork- I live in a pollo-vegetarian household, and even the rare times I do eat these, they don't sit well in my stomach.

Carrots- I don't like the taste.

Dark Chocolate- Like another user said, too bitter.

Chocolate Ice Cream- It just doesn't taste good to me.

Milk- I never liked it that much. It always tasted bad to me.

Cherries- I don't like the taste. I don't like many cherry-flavored products, either.

Mustard- Tastes bad.

[Leaping Larry Jojo]

Bok Choy, stuff is nasty.

it's good if you know how to cook it. Most westerners do not.

[Scythemantis]

I despise beef, everything about it just comes off as filthy...and now I couldn't eat it if I wanted to, because a lifetime of avoiding it leaves me unable to properly digest the garbage. It's strange, because I can try other meats I've never had before and not get sick...it must be due to one of the nasty chemicals they put into commercial beef.

However I cannot believe anyone would hate chocolate, even as a coating on something else. It's such an indescribably perfect, wonderful, heavenly taste and texture. Mankind weeps before its feet. I like it best warm and partially melted. I won't eat it any other way if I can help it. Peanut Butter M&M's heated in the microwave are something I could easily kill myself eating.

Course, chocolate varies WILDLY in flavor from country to country. Some people are disgusted by American chocolate but go nuts for U.K. chocolate like everyone else.

Fried spam. Everyone else I know hates it with a passion.I wouldn't say that's a food everyone else likes unless you live in Hawaii (where even Mcdonalds and Burger King serve Spam). In Britain and most of America, spam is considered notoriously disgusting, low-class "mystery meat". The fact that I like a small, cold slice of it now and then on the side of a real meal is already considered bizarre by most of my friends and family and they can't stand to see me bite into it.

[Demonic Raven]

I don't like strawberries. It's not really the flavor, but the texture of the strawberry itself. It's all prickly on the outside, and squishy on the inside. Not a fan of raspberries, either. I don't usually go for most vegetables.

For all of those hating on shrimp: you hurt me. :crying:

Shrimp is awesome, especially with a little marinara sauce and lemon juice. However, what I reeaally love are clams on a half shell...also with the same condiments. I drool just thinking about it..... <3

[Zubby]

I do not like peanut butter or peanuts. Never have, even when I was a kid.
I can tolerate small amounts in recipies, but I would never eat a peanut butter sandwich or a handfull of peanuts.

I also have major problems wih mayonnaise. I will tolerate it in chicken salad (I use as little as possible when making it), but other than that will not go anywhere near it. Just the thought of going to the store to buy mayo has been known to squick me.
At least I know where this comes from. When I was a kid, my mom used Miracle Whip, but called it mayo. I didn't know the difference, and still associate one with the other. Miracle Whip is one of the most vile, disgusting substances known to man. It smells horrible, and tastes even worse. My Mom loves it, for some reason.

[DBZNarutoWarrior]

I only like mayonnaise if it's used for Tuna.

Yeah, I used to hate mayonnaise unless it was on tuna. But I don't mind it anymore. I really don't hate any foods really. All the food mentioned so far in the posts I have eaten it before, and either haven't minded it, or I love it. I'm not a big fan or caramelized foods (like popcorn) though. But I like the syrup LOL.

[Simpler Simon]

Not a big ketchup person. There was a kids book I saw once called "I love ketchup sandwiches" that just killed my appetite for ketchup for the longest time.

Also not a big fan of anything with peanuts. I dont think its true allergies, because I don't keel over or get rashes or such, but it tickles the throat and just makes me queasy.

[DarthGonzo]

Hard boiled eggs gross me out like crazy. I stand stand them, which is weird because I'm good with most other ways eggs are prepared.

I also hate mayo. Hate it.

[KPTitan]

Barbaqued ribs 'cause the barbaque sauce gives me a nasty headache for some weird reason....only thing I'll eat that has to do with barbaque is that smoked salmon marinated in a light pineapple barbaque sauce at the Famous Dave's Barbaque resteraunt in Billings, MT. Go there once every year, lol. Now, that's something I like and nobody else likes, is smoked food. My dad and brother can't stand smoked but I can.:D

[purplehairedwonder]

.only thing I'll eat that has to do with barbaque is that smoked salmon marinated in a light pineapple barbaque sauce at the Famous Dave's Barbaque resteraunt in Billings, MT. Go there once every year, lol.We've got Famous Dave's in Bozeman (two hours from Billings) and it's fabulous. <3 their food despite the fact that I hate BBQ sauce.

I actually hate egg yolks but love the whites. I can eat the yolks when they're scrambled or when they're cooked sunny side up, but other than that, ick. I can eat the whites by themselves, sooo yummy.

[Master Moron]

I used to love eggs for breakfast especially scrambled eggs, nowadays I'll take a few bites and push it aside. They don't taste as good as they used to.


You need to mix something else in with the eggs, such as mushrooms and cheese. Peppers and onions are also great in eggs, as are sausage and cheese. Also, you should try making the eggs plain and then pouring strawberry dessert topping on top of them. Delicious!

[KPTitan]

We've got Famous Dave's in Bozeman (two hours from Billings) and it's fabulous. <3 their food despite the fact that I hate BBQ sauce.

You're lucky you gotta Famous Dave's in your hometown. We're a 3 /12-4 hour drive away. While going up to Glacier National Park we stayed in Kalispell, and apparently they're supposed to be getting a Famous Dave's too. It must be a famous resteraunt chain that only occurs in Montana.:sweat:

Another thing my dad and brother likes that I can't stand eating: brawtwursts.

[JAG]

For those of you that hate pb&j, I reccomend Goober combination pb&j (the grape jelly). I've been eating it since I grew teeth, and it's never let me down yet.

[purplehairedwonder]

Something else I despise, actually, is hummus. My parents absolutely love it and I can't stand the stuff.

[CyberCartoon]

I really don't like any meat sandwiches like turkey, ham etc. except for tuna fish or burgers.

[The Wolverine]

Anything non-meat is generally disgusting (save for certain apples and citrus, and certain dairy products like ice cream and eggs).

I don't drink milk too often, it makes me sick for some reason (strange, because other dairy is fine).

[Desensitized]

I don't like meat in general, really.
Me either. I'm not even a vegetarian, I just don't care for most meats.

Although I hate and will always hate mushrooms. I can't stand anything about them. Especially cooked.

I also hate most cooked vegetables. I prefer them raw.

[SilverStCloud]

Hamburger and macaroni and cheese. I hate both of them and everyone seems to love them.
