What foods do you refuse to eat?

I am, I guess, a fussy eater. I dislike things that have too much garlic (this is an improvement of a few years ago where I'd refuse point blank to eat anything with garlic in), I will not eat any kind of curry and I dislike egg when that is all it is (cakes etc are fine). Fried, scrambled, poached, omelet, hardboiled....

Oh and I don't eat freaky foods such as squid, monkey brains, frogs legs etc...

From the other thread I can eat things dependent on the way they're cooked, like vegetables, but seafood is the only thing I just will not eat. Doesn't matter which way it's cooked.

spaghetti/noodles/general stringy food.

Food shouldn't be a PITA to eat.

I refuse to try and eat;
Organs (heart, Kidney, liver etc)
Raw Shrimp
Raw Chicken Feet

I'll try (just about) anything else.

Brussels Sprouts. I will give most over things a go

Liver, kidneys, heart, squid, eel, snails, frogs legs. Also whelks/mussles/cockles.

None hated more than onions though. HATE the taste of onion. Unless its chopped up into teeny tiny pieces in a sauce so you cant taste it, I wont touch the stuff.

Fish I bloody hate the stuff.

Mat · 29 Jul 2012 at 19:45

Cucumber
Mushrooms
Many types of seafood

When have you tried it, and what sorts have you tried, though? I mean, there are all sorts of ways of preparing it/wildly different kinds of fish (in terms of taste, etc)/and so forth.

But in his defense, the vast majority is ugly/slimy/smelly.

Absolutely nothing.

That has nothing to do with the food, you just don't know how to eat it.

Fresh fish doesn't smell.

captainrobwash · 29 Jul 2012 at 19:46

I have tried salmon prepared a load of different ways, cod, tuna and haddock I will always try stuff I just don't like the taste.

Sinny · 29 Jul 2012 at 19:47

Baked beans (Devils food, even the smell makes me heave)
Uncooked cheese
SPROUTS!

I used to work at a fishmongers.

I can assure you it does...

And @ the people discarding offal... is it just the concept which puts you off - the fact it's organs? Or is it the taste after actually trying it?

I think for most it's the over powering taste that bits of offal have. Livers are high in iron and I know when I started eating it, it took a while to get used to that. Depends on the age (or type) of the animal that the liver came out of and how you cook it.

potatoes and meat

Then you were either buying bad fish, didn't have a high turnover or weren't cleaning your shop thoroughly enough.

I like almost all food but there are a few things I can't stomach or like the taste of and that is walnuts and parsnips.
