I hate pizza. Just thinking about it makes me feel ill, and when I tell people this in real life they get so confused! Anyone else hate anything everyone seems to like?

Mushrooms here too. And lettuce, why do they put it in burgers? I just gets hot and tastes like cabbage 🤢

Rubyandsaphire · 04/07/2020 14:56

Cheese, yoghurt, cornflakes.

I'm not keen on creme brulee. I wouldn't say I hate it but I'd never choose it on a menu.

@AgeLikeWine

Processed cheese, the sort that is in fast-food burgers and packs of slices or squeezy tubes. Disgusting, artificial muck. I love real cheese, though.

We have beautiful cheeses too, so just why ?

Cereal and toast

So bland..

Nandos. It's over priced, plastic shit. I don't know why it's so successful.

Strawberry flavour. I like strawberries but anything strawberry flavour is vile. When I was pregnant with bad morning sickness I could smell a strawberry yogurt pot from across the room. I made DP wash it out and throw it away so I couldn't smell it. Horrible.

oliviaskies · 04/07/2020 15:23

AWiseWoman I agree! Never managed to find anything there I'd even consider edible, I end up just eating chips.

OP you must be difficult to cater for at a dinner party! Fish, cheese, even pizza...

roarfeckingroar · 04/07/2020 15:25

Oh my gosh - and tomatoes and salty food!!

Deelish75 · 04/07/2020 15:28

Rice and prawns.

whiteblue · 04/07/2020 15:28

Peas and eggsConfused

Avocado is foul. I'm vegetarian and avocado seems to be the new butternut squash. It's in every sandwich and salad that doesn't have meat 🤢🤮

I'd never go to a dinner party - I'd feel awful putting my preferences on someone else! Salty food is okay, it's just specifically the amount of salt in takeouts that makes me feel ill.

I'll add beetroot too.

I've never been able to eat it because the smell alone makes me nauseous. My mum loved it and when a pack was open and left in the fridge it stunk the place out Envy

Veggie food definitely goes through trends - I remember from my veggie days when everything had aubergine in it - glad that's gone

Any fried food but particularly fried bread or fritters. I can manage chips once in a blue moon.

MondeoFan · 04/07/2020 15:31

Iceberg Lettuce 🥬

Anything fake strawberry (yoghurts, chewits, milkshake) etc love real strawberries though

MondeoFan · 04/07/2020 15:33

@BonestoBones

I'm the same 🙌🏻

Longdistance · 04/07/2020 15:34

My dd hates pizza so you’re not alone.

I hate celery 🤮 I eat everything else though looks at waste line

iklboo · 04/07/2020 15:38

Nutella - actually anything with hazelnuts or almonds. I can smell almonds a mile off. Nobody is going to poison me with cyanide.

Avocado
Blue cheese
Goats cheese
King prawns
Thai food (or any dishes with lemongrass & coconut milk in)
Most shellfish except scallops & lobster
Olives

Minai · 04/07/2020 15:39

@BonestoBones my husband is the opposite to you he can’t stomach strawberries but will eat any strawberry flavour!

I am not keen on mushrooms, aubergines, beetroot or coriander. Which is unfortunate as I’m a vegetarian and all the vegetarian options in restaurants seem to contain these things!

cheapskatemum · 04/07/2020 15:41

Everyone where I work is overjoyed that KFC has opened up and will queue for half an hour at the drive-thru. I hate KFC. In fact I'm not a fan of take always full stop.

SephrinaX · 04/07/2020 15:42

Chocolate cake

Coffee - don't even like the smell

Cinnamon - cannot stand it

All shellfish
