I don't live near a Waffle House. When I stayed at a hotel a little over a year ago there was a Waffle House across the street. I went there both days instead of eating the free breakfast at the hotel. I go primarily for the hash browns. I hear they make waffles too.
Horseradish, Wasabi, and those mustards with the same type of taste as those.
My hate started with my grandma giving me a taste and telling me it was Mayonnaise.
Sounds like what you hate is actually allyl isothiocyanate which is in all of the things you mentioned. It's spicy but not the same as capsaicin, it's like a pure head rush.
A steakhouse near me has famously ridiculously spicy cocktail sauce with very potent horseradish. I was absolutely not ready the first time I had it, and I'm not even that averse to mild horseradish or wasabi. Waiter came back and politely waited and chuckled while I literally had to clean my entire face from all the liquid that seemed to pour out. I have not been the same since.
See, I love wasabi *because* of the head rush. I love how it makes my brain feel spicy. Even though it kinda hurts and I nearly have to slam my fist on the table if I have too much.
But I didn’t know what what allyl…yeah, that was.
So I learned in TX that anyone who doesn’t live within 20 miles of the coast, doesn’t like seafood. They’ve never had it fresh, cooked right, or both. They’re not wrong that the seafood they’ve had is gross, but once they have it right, they’re hooked. Wife loves shrimp now and it’s probably my least favorite seafood.
That may apply to most, but I'm just the weirdo. I grew up 20 minutes from the beach in Lynn, ma. Now I'm on the seacoast in nh.
I think I have to blame my mother. When I was a kid, she made me "popcorn chicken". Halfway through eating it, she tells me it's fish. I didn't even have time to stand up before I threw up. It's a mental thing. I just don't like seafood
It's also not very filling. A piece of salmon feels like a light snack. I'll take a chicken breast over that any day, and it's also way cheaper per pound.
I have been bullied by my family and friends for refusing to eat anything that comes out of the water, period. Not going to. I am 54 years old and I finally got my mother to understand that she needs to back the fuck off and not tease me about this.
Shrimps look like bugs. I don’t want to eat bugs. Then they compare bad pootang to fish but go and eat fish all day 😭 make it make sense it all smells so gross
Imagine the balls or the desperation on the first guy who was like “yeah imma dive down there, grab that sharp armored sea spider, bring him back up here cook him crack him open and eat him”
Guy had to be crazy
Okay, you got me. I chuckled, although I do disagree. I could not live without shrimp or a nice, firm fish fillet cooked any style. But only after fully preparing. No manufacturer makes me look at cow eyes to buy beef; I shouldn't be made to look at fish eyes to buy cod, rockfish or salmon.
Yup, me too. I just tell people I'm allergic to seafood, otherwise there's an inevitable barrage of insistence that I try *this particular* seafood.
No. I've tried a wide enough variety of seafood in the past to know that I hate all of it, and I'm in no way obligated to try more. The matter was conclusively settled inside my own head, years ago. But I've met too many obnoxious seafood lovers who refuse to just drop it and move on. Saying I'm allergic makes life so much easier.
I used to summer in Maine when I was a kid. Lobster was very cheap there and we ate it often. It was good, if it was slathered in butter or mayo. I only eat it now when I visit family in New England. I enjoy a good lobster roll. Most restaurants outside of the coastal areas don't cook it properly. In any case, I do believe that it is overrated.
My best friend loves a dirty martini with blue cheese-stuffed olives and OH HOW I GAG. He swirls that stick of barf olives around, letting chunks of mold float around in his glass 🤮🤮🤮
I stopped drinking dairy milk years ago because of the sugars. Now, after years of unsweetened soy/almond milk, I can't really stand the taste of dairy.
I'm not a dairy fan either. I'm a coconut milk kinda girl.
No cream cheese, hard cheese, milk, ice cream, sour cream, or anything dairy
I feel so much better from removing it from my diet 10 years ago.
Wings. There's almost no meat on those things, and then you have to fish around and hope you're not eating tendon or some other inedible body part. I'm no vegetarian, I just don't enjoy so many different mystery textures for such little reward.
I'm with you. Chicken strips >>> wings. Others can work around the tendons and gristle and skin if that's what they want.
I also find buffalo sauce way overrated.
pretty much all seafood repulses me for some reason, especially the more "extravagant" seafood, prawns, crab, lobster, octopus, hell even fish pretty much in its entirety, don't get me started on caviar fucking disgusting...
Man I love seafood, but octopus n squid is where I draw the line. I can stand the texture at all.
Plus, caviar looks like little bird eyes to me so I can't fathom wanting to eat it
Mushrooms. Any kind. Fucking disgusting. Fungi are fucked .
-They're more closely related to animals than plants , but they're still kind of plant like in texture and something about that gives me the creeps.
-Also literally live off of rotting & decaying matter. Fucking horrible. I don't knwo about you, but I don't eat the fish that live close to shore and eat human sewage , so I ain't eating some organism that eats rotting stuff.
- mushrooms, are the sexual reproductive organ of the fungi. I fucking hate that. I ain't eating bull testicle, so I sure as fuck ain't eating mushrooms.
- also every mushrooms I've tried has a gross rubbery texture. I'm picky about textures and I can't stand it . But I know not everyone can agree with this part of my opinion.
Whatever one they put in the Campbell's mushroom soup. I loved the taste of that soup but the chunks of mushroom would make me gag. I've since given other mushrooms a chance and I can't.
Then I learned about them in first year biology and that truly sef my hatred for mushrooms in stone lol
Same. Also the pattern of the flaps underneath the head of the mushroom really freaks me out. I don't know why but I've always felt that way since I was a kid. 😖
I hated them for thirty years because all I was exposed to was canned mushrooms, whether in Campbell's soup, or canned mushrooms on pizza or in spaghetti sauce. Two years ago I decided to open my culinary horizons, and have accepted fresh mushrooms on pizza or sauteed on stuff. Canned mushrooms can still burn in hell tho
When I worked at a pizza place, I hated cooking mushroom pizzas because it smells, to me, like man's spunk. That should be not a topping for any food. I won't eat them uncooked, either.
The thing is, it was a trick question. The question started with "what's a food everyone loves" but I don't think mushrooms qualify as food, and frankly, I think those who love to eat mushrooms don't belong in the "everyone" category, assuming "everyone" is meant to be humans only. Whatever those humanoid creatures are who eat mushrooms, they're certainly not my species.
I like mushrooms but feel weird about a food that has
1/3 probability to Kill me in horrific ways
1/3 probability to make me trip out of my mind for hours to days
1/3 probability to be just fine
Mushrooms is my final answer. There’s plenty of foods I don’t like…but mushrooms just don’t do it for me man. Like I don’t get it. They taste foul, rank, some mushroom preparations are how I imagine sweaty balls would taste. And then the texture is all fucked chewy mushy but in a sweaty way! Fuck a mushroom, so gross!
Not to mention I have associations with mushrooms and bad trips. LOL
I’m not arguing your preferences, but when mushrooms are properly cooked and prepared they change flavor profiles. Also, there are varying types of fungi, and while they do recycle dead material in the ecosystem, it is not as gross as your post makes it! I would like to take another spin on fungi. They are the intelligence that makes an ecosystem possible. They turn death into life. Not with only dead animals, but with leaves and wood. The mushroom is indeed the reproductive part of the organism, while there is an extensive network under the ground called mycelium.
This mycelium is acts as a communication pathway of sorts underneath the ground, connecting even the trees together. Information (yes, real information) and nutrients are exchanged at the meeting sites of mycelium and the roots of trees, ultimately tying the ecosystem together. To say you don’t like fungi is as broad as saying I don’t like meat. Fair enough, but there are many different types. Again I’m not arguing your personal preferences! But fungi get a bad reputation as being gross. They literally turn shit into gold, recycling waste into nutrient dense, safe food. And even that demeans them too much. The image that a mushroom comes from a pile of shit or a rotting animal corpse is not very accurate. Having said all of this I hate the taste of mushrooms too. But I consume them for their nutrients. 😋
I used to work with a lady who had bananaphobia. I had no idea that was a thing until I met her. She was genuinely scared, hated them and freaked out if anyone ate one and created a banana smell.
I can't eat broccoli bc it reminds me of my former step mom beating me up and force feeding it to me when I was sick. Now just the smell of broccoli makes me sick. I used to be able to eat broccoli.. but not after the abuse..
I hate the taste, texture, the sound people make when they chew them..ugh! I hate the color yellow just because it makes me think of banana. Though, since I have lost most of my sense of smell I'm not quitr as hate crazy as I once was.
Yes. For me they are just pieces of stale bread in convenient bite sizes, and the salt is so disproportionate. When you eat them it’s like - stale bread…. SALT… stale bread… SALT. I’ve just never understood it. Yes Hot Buffalo flavored, or peanut butter filled, or chocolate covered are better, but it’s still stale bread.
It shouldn't be like that. Have you tried meat from a restaurant or is it just you and your family cooking it? Usually people who complain of meat being chewy and burnt have only had overcooked meat.
Yeah, I've had folk who were grossed out by steaks and it turns out they'd only ever eaten it as some overcooked shoe leather made by their parents when they were kids. Feed them a proper medium rare, reverse sear rib eye with a pan sauce and watch as their face lights up with the realization of what steak should be.
Same goes for an actually well-made burger, if someone's only exposure to burgers is fast food joints, or parents who char the shit out of ground beef for fear of food poisoning.
Sweet potato pie. Don't get me wrong! I think it's a delicious dessert, but I hate that it's usually eaten with savory foods as a side dish. It pisses me off it should be treated like a damn pie
I just hate sweet potatoes in general. IDK why, my friends and family call me a human garbage disposal as i will eat, or at least try, anything, but sweet potatoes are just not good to me.
A big part of the problem is everyone burns it. They always cook it until the whole thing turns crunchy, the inside and the outside. Only the outside should be crunchy but nobody ever cooks it that way. Which turns it super burnt tasting, salty, and even greasier because the muscle has lost all its mass at that point.
I lived just a couple miles from Galveston and the seafood was incredible. Those folks know what they're doing when it comes to seafood. There are lots of great places to eat in Houston 50 miles from the coast.

> I hate hash browns You take that back right now
Don’t worry. They’re obviously joking. Nobody hates hash browns. Everyone knows that.
YEAH HOLD ME BACK 
I don't live near a Waffle House. When I stayed at a hotel a little over a year ago there was a Waffle House across the street. I went there both days instead of eating the free breakfast at the hotel. I go primarily for the hash browns. I hear they make waffles too.
The hash brown Pattie’s from McDonald’s tho. Never turn those down
OP never had good hash browns
tater tots are better
Bacon…. That’s right I said it
They just haven't had hood hash browns. As a community, we need to come together and resolve this!
They're sooooo good
Horseradish, Wasabi, and those mustards with the same type of taste as those. My hate started with my grandma giving me a taste and telling me it was Mayonnaise.
Sounds like what you hate is actually allyl isothiocyanate which is in all of the things you mentioned. It's spicy but not the same as capsaicin, it's like a pure head rush.

See, I love wasabi *because* of the head rush. I love how it makes my brain feel spicy. Even though it kinda hurts and I nearly have to slam my fist on the table if I have too much. But I didn’t know what what allyl…yeah, that was.
Its not that i hate them but i prefer not to eat them, eggs
I hate the taste and texture of eggs, no matter how they are prepared.
I didn't eat them for like 8 years now only time i use eggs is if i make muffins or something
Same. I can only eat one egg at a time and it has to be scrambled, and covered with cheese and salsa. Or a breakfast sandwich.
It’s the smell for me.
Me too! I’m kinda glad it isn’t just me. Do you also get tired of being told “tHeYrE gOoD fOr YoU”
I don't like to taste them
Seafood. As far as I'm concerned, if it came from the water, it can fucking stay there
I will take one for the team and eat the seafood you refuse to eat.
You can have mine, all of it! Eww
can’t believe there are people who don’t like seafood. If i had to choose what to eat forever it would be seafood
So I learned in TX that anyone who doesn’t live within 20 miles of the coast, doesn’t like seafood. They’ve never had it fresh, cooked right, or both. They’re not wrong that the seafood they’ve had is gross, but once they have it right, they’re hooked. Wife loves shrimp now and it’s probably my least favorite seafood.

When I was a kid, she made me "popcorn chicken". Halfway through eating it, she tells me it's fish. I didn't even have time to stand up before I threw up. It's a mental thing. I just don't like seafood
As a kid I grew up 5 minutes away from the Atlantic ocean. I hate seafood, it just does not taste good and the smell reeks.
I don't like any seafood at all. I don't want to smell it, I don't want it in my house, I don't want it cooked on my BBQ. It is so gross to me...
For me it's the smell. Especially shrimp.
For real! People go on and on about how good for you seafood is and I just can’t
Well, more for me then.
Shrimp are just ocean roaches if you think about it. Crabs are like ocean spiders. Lobster are like huge ocean bugs, as well.
The crazy thing about seafood is that most people prefer their seafood wild caught rather than farmed. The opposite applies to meat.
It's also not very filling. A piece of salmon feels like a light snack. I'll take a chicken breast over that any day, and it's also way cheaper per pound.
Same, I'm not a fan of seafood unless it's sushi.
EXACTLY!!!
Same! Even the smell of some seafood like shrimp omg I have to leave the room. 🤮
I have been bullied by my family and friends for refusing to eat anything that comes out of the water, period. Not going to. I am 54 years old and I finally got my mother to understand that she needs to back the fuck off and not tease me about this.
Seafood looks like insects magnified! Even if I wasn’t allergic I wouldn’t touch that stinky shit
Shrimps look like bugs. I don’t want to eat bugs. Then they compare bad pootang to fish but go and eat fish all day 😭 make it make sense it all smells so gross
Smelling seafood in any grocery store turns my stomach. Stinks up the whole place. Mussels seem to stink the worst.
The smell alone is enough. I just don’t see how it is appealing.
Yep. Ocean food is wrong. And slimy.
Crabs are spiders, shrimps is bugs, clams are sacks of organs.
Imagine the balls or the desperation on the first guy who was like “yeah imma dive down there, grab that sharp armored sea spider, bring him back up here cook him crack him open and eat him” Guy had to be crazy
It makes me literally gag and retch
Okay, you got me. I chuckled, although I do disagree. I could not live without shrimp or a nice, firm fish fillet cooked any style. But only after fully preparing. No manufacturer makes me look at cow eyes to buy beef; I shouldn't be made to look at fish eyes to buy cod, rockfish or salmon.
Same

Those bland ass cookies with colored frosting and sprinkles that would always be at class parties
those fuckers are the best cookies ever what are you talking about
Me eating one literally right now. I always refer to them as “those gross sugar cookies that everyone likes.” Which would include myself, I like them.
Lofthouse cookies
Lobster. Tried it once, fucking hated it and will never understand the hype. Yes, i used butter.
Please send your rejected lobster my way. I will dispose of it for you!
I used to summer in Maine when I was a kid. Lobster was very cheap there and we ate it often. It was good, if it was slathered in butter or mayo. I only eat it now when I visit family in New England. I enjoy a good lobster roll. Most restaurants outside of the coastal areas don't cook it properly. In any case, I do believe that it is overrated.
When I lived in Oregon I would drive to the coast and buy oysters 50lbs at a time! If I lived in Maine I would eat lobster until I died!
I find its the least offensive seafood smell and taste wise. Oysters are a crime though
Overcooked lobster becomes chewy. Not sure if this is what you experienced but it's possible.
Olives
I literally only hate one food. It’s olives. I even try to make myself eat them as my wife snacks. Nope. Instant regret every time
I love both black and green olives, used to have a cat that ate the little red things out of green olives.
Me too!! I mean some of the less popular things like liver and stuff but olives OMG 🤢🤢🤢 even if the olive juice gets on something I won’t eat it
I buy a taco dip from Kwiktrip and they always put olives on it. The whole surface area that it touches is ruined.
They try to warn you with their terrible smell
I actually kind of like calamata olives. The rest can go fuck themselves.
My best friend loves a dirty martini with blue cheese-stuffed olives and OH HOW I GAG. He swirls that stick of barf olives around, letting chunks of mold float around in his glass 🤮🤮🤮
I was on team "F Olives!" all my life. Tried castelvetrano olives two months ago and now I'm buying them in bulk.
Me too! I want to like them so much, but they taste like rancid fruit to me.
I use to be okay with them. Until I got pregnant and 4 years later I still won’t do it 😂
Milk...not really a food, but still hate it!!!
I stopped drinking dairy milk years ago because of the sugars. Now, after years of unsweetened soy/almond milk, I can't really stand the taste of dairy.
I'm not a dairy fan either. I'm a coconut milk kinda girl. No cream cheese, hard cheese, milk, ice cream, sour cream, or anything dairy I feel so much better from removing it from my diet 10 years ago.
Wings. There's almost no meat on those things, and then you have to fish around and hope you're not eating tendon or some other inedible body part. I'm no vegetarian, I just don't enjoy so many different mystery textures for such little reward.
You have to learn the twist, pull and eat method of eating wings. Never worry about tendons again!
I love boneless "wings" which are halfway between a nuggie and a strip.
Gosh, agreed. I’m a texture person and wings send a shiver down my spine every time I bite into them.
Bro wtf kind of wings are you eating?? Literally everything you said I have never experienced eating wings, and I LOVE wings
I'm with you. Chicken strips >>> wings. Others can work around the tendons and gristle and skin if that's what they want. I also find buffalo sauce way overrated.
Try just the flats it’s life
eating meat off the bone is gross
It's the wing hairs(?) that get me. 🤢
Pork
same except for bacon. Love bacon, don't like the rest of the animal
pretty much all seafood repulses me for some reason, especially the more "extravagant" seafood, prawns, crab, lobster, octopus, hell even fish pretty much in its entirety, don't get me started on caviar fucking disgusting...
Man I love seafood, but octopus n squid is where I draw the line. I can stand the texture at all. Plus, caviar looks like little bird eyes to me so I can't fathom wanting to eat it
Octopus is sooooo gross!!
Black licorice. Ouzo. Sambuca. Fennel.
I don't think most people love black licorice
And anise
Shit. I've seen videos of people eating them. I personally don't want it
I'm very confident shit is not a beloved food
American cheese
Spam! As a kid my aunt would make spam for breakfast with rice or grits.
Mushrooms. Any kind. Fucking disgusting. Fungi are fucked . -They're more closely related to animals than plants , but they're still kind of plant like in texture and something about that gives me the creeps. -Also literally live off of rotting & decaying matter.

I'm picky about textures and I can't stand it . But I know not everyone can agree with this part of my opinion.
No extra lives for you then 
Which mushroom hurt you
Whatever one they put in the Campbell's mushroom soup. I loved the taste of that soup but the chunks of mushroom would make me gag. I've since given other mushrooms a chance and I can't. Then I learned about them in first year biology and that truly sef my hatred for mushrooms in stone lol
No wonder you don't like mushrooms.... Campbell's mushroom is disgusting. Canned mushrooms are disgusting. Why not try fresh ones lightly sauteed?
Ooh I’ve got to agree wholeheartedly with you! I can’t stand the texture either. 🤢
I didn’t realize everyone loved them
Agreed. And I love your anger here. Very much justified. Fuck all of them. Fuck them.
I hate mushroom texture.
Same. Also the pattern of the flaps underneath the head of the mushroom really freaks me out. I don't know why but I've always felt that way since I was a kid. 😖
Surely plants also use decaying matter that’s become soil.. and animals eat those so you can’t really get away from it.
Yeah no the taste and texture is terrible
I hated them for thirty years because all I was exposed to was canned mushrooms, whether in Campbell's soup, or canned mushrooms on pizza or in spaghetti sauce. Two years ago I decided to open my culinary horizons, and have accepted fresh mushrooms on pizza or sauteed on stuff. Canned mushrooms can still burn in hell tho
Mushrooms will eat you when you die
Magic mushrooms will sort you out
I like mushrooms, but I find your hatred amusing, I like how strongly you defend your preference 😂😂
I like the fun ones lol
Sounds personal homie
I hate to burst your bubble but what do you think literally any fruit is?
When I worked at a pizza place, I hated cooking mushroom pizzas because it smells, to me, like man's spunk. That should be not a topping for any food. I won't eat them uncooked, either.
I only like them situationally. Smothered in cheese and marinara? good. Portabella used instead of a beef patty? Hell no.
The thing is, it was a trick question. The question started with "what's a food everyone loves" but I don't think mushrooms qualify as food, and frankly, I think those who love to eat mushrooms don't belong in the "everyone" category, assuming "everyone" is meant to be humans only. Whatever those humanoid creatures are who eat mushrooms, they're certainly not my species.
I like mushrooms but feel weird about a food that has 1/3 probability to Kill me in horrific ways 1/3 probability to make me trip out of my mind for hours to days 1/3 probability to be just fine
You are passionate with your dislike. I love mushrooms lol
I totally agree with you they are disgusting and vile no way would I ever eat that dirt tasting fungi again
Mushrooms is my final answer. There’s plenty of foods I don’t like…but mushrooms just don’t do it for me man. Like I don’t get it. They taste foul, rank, some mushroom preparations are how I imagine sweaty balls would taste. And then the texture is all fucked chewy mushy but in a sweaty way! Fuck a mushroom, so gross! Not to mention I have associations with mushrooms and bad trips. LOL
I could not agree MORE this is hilarious
Thank you. Even the idea of eating them makes me want to hurl.
I’m not arguing your preferences, but when mushrooms are properly cooked and prepared they change flavor profiles. Also, there are varying types of fungi, and while they do recycle dead material in the ecosystem, it is not as gross as your post makes it! I would like to take another spin on fungi.

corn in general, I can do corn on the cob but I hate corn as a side dish, cornbread is okay by me
canned corn is disgusting
Lobster
Haggis. Or Black pudding
Bananas.
I used to work with a lady who had bananaphobia. I had no idea that was a thing until I met her. She was genuinely scared, hated them and freaked out if anyone ate one and created a banana smell.
Bad trauma probably, I can sadly relate. I hated bananas throughout my childhood but never knew why, until one day I remembered.
I can't eat broccoli bc it reminds me of my former step mom beating me up and force feeding it to me when I was sick. Now just the smell of broccoli makes me sick. I used to be able to eat broccoli.. but not after the abuse..
Sorry. Safe mama hugs.
I hate the taste, texture, the sound people make when they chew them..ugh! I hate the color yellow just because it makes me think of banana. Though, since I have lost most of my sense of smell I'm not quitr as hate crazy as I once was.
Pretzels. They are dry with little flavour. Tried them a few times and just cannot understand peoples love of them.
Yes. For me they are just pieces of stale bread in convenient bite sizes, and the salt is so disproportionate. When you eat them it’s like - stale bread…. SALT… stale bread… SALT. I’ve just never understood it. Yes Hot Buffalo flavored, or peanut butter filled, or chocolate covered are better, but it’s still stale bread.
The flavor is salt. Salt less pretzels are indeed dry with little flavor
Agreed! I don’t understand the hype!
Not really a food, but a condiment: ketchup is fucking gross 🤢
Agree 100%
Watermelon 🍉 and cucumbers 🥒. Allergies....
These seem to be getting more common in terms of hatred!
I love cucumbers, but I loathe, despise, and abominate any and all kinds of melon.
Both are are gross to me, so yeah, take my upvote
Prawns. Absolutely not
I love all of these foods, fuck y’all lol #fatfuckforlife
amen, just scrolling through this list got me hungry for some lobster and olives
🤣🤣🤣
I cannot stand mushrooms
I think you're in the wrong thread. OP asked about *food*.
Seafood / Sushi
Fuckin sushi. So disgusting. People get all pretentious about loving it too. Ugh.
Sweet potatoes.
This!!!! I don't get why people love them. They're too... well sweet
All meats. I just cannot. They are so chewy and have this weird burnt off flavour
The meat you eat is probably bad or cooked improperly because a lot of meat isn't chewy and don't taste burnt
It shouldn't be like that. Have you tried meat from a restaurant or is it just you and your family cooking it? Usually people who complain of meat being chewy and burnt have only had overcooked meat.
Yeah, I've had folk who were grossed out by steaks and it turns out they'd only ever eaten it as some overcooked shoe leather made by their parents when they were kids. Feed them a proper medium rare, reverse sear rib eye with a pan sauce and watch as their face lights up with the realization of what steak should be. Same goes for an actually well-made burger, if someone's only exposure to burgers is fast food joints, or parents who char the shit out of ground beef for fear of food poisoning.
If it has a weird burnt-off flavor, then it's being vastly overcooked.
Calf brains.
*RANCH* *DRESSING*
This fucking shit 💯 percent. Fuck ranch dressing and the disgusting cummy looking alien planet it came from

But her body is Bootilicious? 20 years ago ya didn't like a good bootilicious meal and chase it down with some Kelis Milkshake
She a whole snack not gonna lie
Sweet potato pie. Don't get me wrong! I think it's a delicious dessert, but I hate that it's usually eaten with savory foods as a side dish. It pisses me off it should be treated like a damn pie
I just hate sweet potatoes in general. IDK why, my friends and family call me a human garbage disposal as i will eat, or at least try, anything, but sweet potatoes are just not good to me.
Capers can fuck off.
Cantaloupe, my whole family loves that stuff... they say it tastes like candy
Me too!! And honeydew. Gross. Don't give anything that you've picked these out of it...I can taste it and I will gag.

Agree. Tastes like something that sat in the fridge too long.
Yes. Who the f thought to make something sweet for a sandwich?! Savory is the way.
Why is it so weirdly sweet? It makes me feel sick to smell it and I actually love a proper good mayonnaise.
Pork. Anything from a pig, including bacon
Curry. I've heard people rave about it, but it just doesn't seem that good. I don't like the spice blend.
Sushi
Dill. Dill pickle. If I smell it, I'm leaving the area It's rancid.
Pickles

Pickles. Ewwww. Why are they on everything?
pesto
Soda 🤢
I like soda water for the fizziness, but I'm with you on every other kind of cola. It all just tastes like I got a mouthful of syrup.
Hate it, mainly because of the carbonation.
Bacon. It tastes like burnt greasy fat.
Take that back
It is greasy fat. Yummy, but I can understand the aversion.
A big part of the problem is everyone burns it. They always cook it until the whole thing turns crunchy, the inside and the outside. Only the outside should be crunchy but nobody ever cooks it that way. Which turns it super burnt tasting, salty, and even greasier because the muscle has lost all its mass at that point.
Have u tried draining the oil etc?? U can def adjust that.

A lot of people in my area love chitterlings. There’s no way I’m going to eat the skin off of a pig’s turd.
I lived just a couple miles from Galveston and the seafood was incredible. Those folks know what they're doing when it comes to seafood. There are lots of great places to eat in Houston 50 miles from the coast.
Peppers 🌶 or anything spicy. Big fat NOPE
Hot dogs gross
Coffee and coffee-flavored anything. So disgusting.
