Popular foods you don't like?

[oliviaskies]

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?

@DawnAnn

Olives. I do persevere and try them again every few years, but still don't like them.

I did this for ten years if not more, all of a sudden I can't get enough of green olives! Hate the black ones though. So strange I always wanted to like them

@lampygirl

I now have lasagne probably once a fortnight. No idea why I suddenly decided it was actually all in my head.

This is interesting. I used to have all kinds of weird food aversions as a child (like I would vomit if forced to eat those things) and some of them have remained but I remember a few where one day I decided to try those foods again and I really enjoyed them and eat them to this day. Just like that.

I absolutely hate ketchup and peanut butter. They smell gross, they feel gross. They ARE gross!

Yogurts
Alcohol of all types
Peppers
Lamb
Popcorn
Olives
Celery
Dried fruit
Pancakes
Anything spicey

Not much I dislike really but there's a few I can think of 🤣

Pizza
Coffee especially fancy coffees
Jelly
Bacon
Ham - actually any pork. This could be because my dad is Jewish and we didn't eat it at home but that was just the way it was. I would eat it if I liked it..the smell and the look of it makes me heave. My siblings eat pork and if dad sees them he is ok but a bit
Anything from Greggs (especially see above)
Subway
Mac Donald's
Nando's
KFC
Anything BBQ flavoured
Trifle (see jelly)
Kebab - like the big salmonella on a stick ones. Never had one- don't trust them

I can agree with regards to prawns and mostly all fish (except tuna and haddock/cod in battered form)

Also, can’t stand tomatoes or any food tomato based.

Also, dominoes pizza. It’s gross.

Also, fruit cake and meat (pork, lamb and beef) 🤢

Olives too. Also some cheeses, they have to be super mild.

Ok, I’ll shut up now. 😶

Another one for Avocado - horrible tasteless muck!

Curry, most burgers, bananas (the horror!), trifle, salad, any sauces like ketchup, brown sauce, mustard etc (though I don't mind ketchup as an ingredient), onions unless really well cooked, cumin, rocket, peppers. I am a very fussy eater!

@eaglejulesk tastes like grass. 😩

I like most things, but really can't see the appeal of burgers, especially not cheeseburgers. Meat and melty cheese really don't go together in my opinion, nor does meat and bread, especially the crap bread that most burgers are served in.

Which also explains why I don't like meat on pizza, which otherwise I love, as long as it's good pizza, so not the likes of Domino's or Pizza Hut, which I really can't understand the appeal of and it's stupidly expensive.

I glanced at a takeaway menu that came through the door yesterday and was saddened to see that there was more choice of chicken pizzas (7!) than there was pizzas without meat on them, where there was only 4, and two of those were just cheese, the others being mushroom and mixed vegetable, which included ridiculously, pineapple.

Obviously then there were about 20 different options involving pepperoni, salami and various other types of processed pork, which is equally stupid and quite unexpected, given that just about all the takeaways round here are run by Muslims.

So it would seem that most people want chicken or pepperoni on their pizza, neither of which I care for.

I did this for many years and cracked it aged around 37. Dc managed aged around 3 and 6 which impressed me greatly. I don't think anyone is just born liking an olive, you have to learn!

Eggs

Mayonnaise 🤮 Not quite a food but a popular condiment, I can't even look at it on someone else's plate!

@Bodgedboxdye - I've never tasted grass, but if tastes like avocados then I will add it to my list of foods not to eat

Most of you are crazy!! (Joking!!)

I cannot fathom disliking some of the stuff you dislike.

I dislike -

Squid (eww), but sushi/mussels/prawns ok

Aubergine that's not part of a dish. Ie veg lasagne, ratatouille etc OK, aubergine on it's own - bleugh

Liver or kidneys except chicken liver

Tripe

Black Pudding - not the taste as such, just the blood thing.

When I was a Child I hated baked beans and mayo - I'd literally vomit!! Like both now though.

Salad cream. A poor apology for mayonnaise in my book.

Coriander and lemongrass
Most curry, and to people that insist I must I say "do please FO"
Trifle
Banana
Hard egg yolk

Hershey’s chocolate, tastes like dog drops.
Lamb, smells like death when cooking.

Risotto. It's just savoury rice pudding, isn't it? All kinds of wrong.

@BarbaraofSeville I agree!!!! I’m not vegetarian but can’t stand meat in a sandwich/ on a pizza - it’s horrible!!!! Don’t get me wrong, I love a nice steak with a rocket salad but I can’t eat “meat feast” pizza eeeuuughhhhh!! My favourite pizza is mozzarella and black olive. There really is no need to put chicks of chicken/ pepperoni on there. Gross.

Any food that wobbles (the jelly bit in Jaffa cakes is the only wobbly food I can eat)

Sushi (yes I have had good sushi I still don’t like it)

Porridge

cream poured on food

Pulled pork

Fresh strawberries. Make me gag.
