What popular foods do you dislike that leave people baffled when you say you don’t like it?

[Soubriquet]

I have ARFID so my diet is extremely limited anyway, but anyway here are some foods that I get people saying “how can you not like xxx”

I’ll start with

Pizza
Cake
Any cheese stronger than a cheddar

Will probably add to it as the thread goes on

I hate butter/ margarine

Chocolate cake

Pizza

Most booze.

Chocolate of any kind. Also wine 🤮

Ice cream
coffee
icing

I also have ARFID

Chocolate
Hot chocolate

Prosecco

Pasta! Can’t abide the texture of it. Nobody believes me when I tell them.

Cheese. And anything that contains cheese.

What does ARFID mean?

Anything Biscoff related. Most cocktails/mocktails.

Big Mac ( or pretty much any hamburger type thing). I’ve only ever had one once, during a very very late working session . 🤢

Ooo yes to butter. I only have butter on either toast or one particular type of bread roll which you get from a bakery and even then it has to be their butter and not a home spread.

I don’t like coffee or alcohol either

Cheese

Cucumber & Melon

Do drinks count? I feel like a very rare breed of person from the way people react when I tell them I hate gin, coffee and red wine

Beans. Weird juicy bastard things.

Baked beans, tomato ketchup.

DS1 loathes sweets and chocolate. Try explaining that when he’s three without sounding beyond precious. People have since admitted they thought we were being unreasonable, shoved sweets into him and we then embarrassed as he spat them out. Turns out he as ASD…this counted as an indicator…

Me too!

Doughnuts

• somebody once strong armed me into having a Krispy Kreme - one bite then surreptitiously binned when she wasn’t looking

I agree!

Pasta is disgusting 🤮

Rice.

Tea

Alcohol. Coffee. Tea.

Oh god yes. They taste like greasy sponges.
