I cannot stand peanut butter to the point where if it’s in the house I feel uncomfortable Hmm Butter from peanuts...it’s just wrong!

Another one for Nutella. Never understood the obsession.

Ribena or anything with black currants in it.
The smell makes me heave.

The sight and smell of tomato ketchup make me very uncomfortable and if I accidentally got it on me I'd be really quite distressed.

I hate beetroot, makes me heave, I detest the taste of coriander and I dislike fizzy drinks.
