CalaDragonflyLady Posted January 14, 2015 #126 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I just found out last year that I'm a "super-taster", so anything that's a little bitter to most people is super bitter to me. I can't stand the taste of coffee and feel like you all have been brainwashed, lol:) Things I will not eat raw meat (sushi? steak tartar? no!) brussel sprouts cooked cabbage bugs balut okra oysters anchovies, sardines, etc. Also not a fan of raw onions (except green) green bell pepper, cooked or raw I'm sure there's more :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capncarp Posted August 1, 2015 #127 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Slight addition to my prior post: Raw seafood, especially shellfish. I ain't gonna put a raw filter in my mouth to have it slide its way down my digestive tract. Sorry, I prefer my biologically-magnified ocean contaminants _cooked_, thank you very much :p. I once had a fried oyster po' boy sandwich, and it was delicious. Though I did have a moment of dread when I looked at a bitten-in-half oyster and saw that inside its golden crunchy coating was something from a horror movie :eek:. I finished the sandwich but didn't take a second look.:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfantum Posted August 8, 2015 #128 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Okra Raw squid Tomato juice And only tomato juice. I have no problem with tomato sauce, ketchup, raw tomatoes, tomato soup, but tomato juice makes me gag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no problem with tomato sauce, ketchup, raw tomatoes, tomato soup, but tomato juice makes me gag. Ugh, yes! I like the first three things you listed as well, but I can't stand tomato soup either - something about eating tomato in hot, liquid form is just..... eww.

Greselda Posted August 13, 2015 #131 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Cannot eat lima beans, liver or any raw fish. However, I love liverwurst, caviar, and sardines...(go figure!) Will try most new things.:D Also, my DH and I love, love, love ice cold milk at most meals. We are both 68 and have been big milk (1% low fat) drinkers all our lives. It has to be ice cold...yum :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Velvetwater Posted September 3, 2015 #134 Share Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) Why all the Okra hate? I adore it especially in Middle Eastern/Arabic food. Lots of the stuff on this thread I actually really like and that includes crickets...when they are deep fried they are like bacon crisps! I have also eaten various eyeballs and I am indifferent to them but eat most things in general. Except: Raw Celery Rhubarb (Celery's evil sister) Offal unless its pate/paste Beetroot Lemon desserts Most tinned fish (including the famous Surstromming) I imagine Fois Gras and Rabbit are delicious but refuse to eat them for various reasons.

CELTICGIRLCRUISER Posted September 13, 2015 #135 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Just three things I would consider grossest Raw Oysters Liver (but love smooth pate) Fennel Then no love for bell peppers, artichoke, aubergine or lamb. I have eaten all sorts of things especially when I lived in the Far East where anything and I mean anything with a pulse is fair game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have eaten all sorts of things especially when I lived in the Far East where anything and I mean anything with a pulse is fair game! If you object to the strong anise flavor of uncooked fennel, DW found a lovely recipe for "Braised Fennel and Carrots" for our Godson's wedding reception (DW provided the meal for the dozen or so vegetarian or vegan guests) which has a bit of dill cooked in with the veggies. None of its raw sharp licorice taste remains _after_ it is done cooking; it has a very subtle flavor. Similar to the way garlic's pungency is tempered and mellowed by slow baking in a closed pot. It's definitely worth a try.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzersky2 Posted October 14, 2015 #137 Share Posted October 14, 2015 A River Cruiser checking in :) Something I LOVE but many hate is Brussels sprouts! Spotted some at the next table and asked the server for some. He brought a family sized plate and our table of six devoured it! I thought I was the only BS lover! I DO hate okra - slimy & yucky taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustCruiseyNotCrazy Posted October 29, 2015 #138 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Yuck, okra. I do not eat fish on a cruise. Thats outright nasty. I save my seafood indulgence for when im right at the water in restaraunt that caught my food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeloLovesStitch Posted October 30, 2015 #139 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Mushrooms!!! Something about eating fungus that turns me off and the texture is just ew. Especially when you can see the gills - GROSS!! I wish I liked them - my sister and I go to the Melting Pot a lot and she makes the stuffed mushrooms - they look good but noooo thank you I really really wish I liked beer. But it's just gross to me. There's some common taste (maybe the yeast?) that I taste even in hard cider and it just makes me want to vomit. Celery. UGH. I HATE celery!!! Also - mussels/clams/oysters.

She had a reaction to shellfish in 2012 (the evening before our cruise on NCL Gem out of NY City) and after we returned to Oregon, she had further testing and was given a list of foods to avoid. The list above is a similar list she was provided by her doctor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeeter195 Posted November 23, 2015 #145 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Wow, the only thing on that list that I do not care for is the insects, tried them a few times, but I just do not like them. Everything else is quite good if prepared the right way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnjen Posted December 2, 2015 #146 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Polenta, and a chunk of tasteless sea bass on top of it. Any food that is served on top of polenta or even mashed potatoes - that turns me off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladytaekwondo Posted December 3, 2015 #147 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Here are my three: Coffee Cavier Dark Chocolate I obviously don't like bitter items. I will try almost anything once, but the thought of eating any type of testicles kind of grosses me out. I would try a bite....maybe...LOL. Weirdly, I like kale which some people describe as bitter to them, I think it has more of a peppered taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
