Many of foods mentioned in this thread so far are my favourites haha, seafood (especially prawns, scallops, squid), mushrooms in all their forms, pork belly, blue cheese (roquefort please), I love it all. Organ meet too, love a bit of liver or kidney but it has to be cooked correctly or the texture is wrong and it becomes disgusting.
I hate:
Anything really sweet, which includes most desserts. Anything other than fresh fruit where 'sweetness' is the predominant flavour. (If I go to a restaurant and everyone else has dessert I'll usually have a double whisky or another starter if I'm driving).
Sponge cake, apart from the sweetness the texture makes me gag.
Over-ripe bananas. I like them when they are yellow with just a hint of green, if it has a few black spots it's tolerable but not enjoyable, once the outside is predominantly black spots it will make me gag because of the texture.
Over-cooked red meat, too dry, just no. Steak must be rare.
Roast chicken or roast turkey, too dry. Most other chicken dishes are fine though. If I go to a roast and all they have is chicken/turkey I'll be happy eating just the skin.
Overly spicy food. I like food that to me tastes a little spicy but I'm very sensitive to spice so most other people would call the same dishes bland. I usually have a Dupiaza at Indian restaurants, occasionally a Rogan Josh but that's as far as I go.
Baked beans, again it's the texture.
Dark chocolate, too bitter.
