Food Hell

What food does everyone hate? For me Salmon(although smoked is delicious) and Pork Bellly.

You dislike pork belly? Chinese crunchy skin pork belly?

I’ve never heard of that before….

I don’t hate anything but dislike pickled eggs or overcooked vegetables.

Mashed potato for some reason, makes me retch..
I can eat chips, fries, roast spuds, baked spuds but yet if it's mashed it suddenly becomes the devils jizz

Baked beans (tinned) gives me the boke.

Oh, i thought of something, i don’t like liquorish.

Gimme some pork belly that's been cooked so its crispy all the way and i love it(like a bacon rasher), but a lot of the time I see it its got a crispy layer then an inch of fat. Its the fat I don't like, but tbh that goes for all meat.

Oooooh, it’s the balance…Crispy, the right amount of fat and then meat.

Found a photo of this from Singapore, Michelin star and they do take away boxes! Not much fat there.

Literally just had some pork belly for my dinner, 8h braised then pressed overnight, sliced and stir fried with a sweet chilli/teriyaki glaze on rice. Nom.

For me I can't stand celery or raw cherry tomatoes. Both are grim.

Anything with a face that is still visible.

Prawns - insects of the sea.

Eggs (by themselves, not as an ingredient that can’t be identified in another food).

Haha hated celery when i was younger but love it now. Cherry toms I can just pop into my mouth one after the other :cry:

Don't put anything like scallops, octopus or mussels near me unless you want projectile vomit in your face.

J and j · 20 Mar 2023 at 21:11

I basically love all cheese, but just can't stand blue cheese or at least I haven't found one I like yet.

One of my best friend at uni say that about prawns ”insects of the sea!”.

Dried squid is a great snack!

If insects tasted like prawns I'd happily have them. They don't, at least not those that I've tried

Celery just tastes really floral to me, like someone has sprayed my face with perfume. It's alright used as a base in a soup/stock etc.

Cherry tomatoes taste great but the texture is just awful.

Agree with Prawns being insects of the sea, they're basically bottom feeders and eat all the ****. I still like them though.

There isn't much I dislike foodwise really, I agree with Raymond about Liquorice though, vile stuff.

Thekwango · 20 Mar 2023 at 21:30

Radishes. Gives me the squits just thinking about them. Also, any of that mouldy cheese stuff that some folk seem to think is nice but smells of rotten feet.

Thekwango · 20 Mar 2023 at 21:32

Oh and how could I forget mushrooms. Dirty dirty dirty vile things.
