What food can you not stand, that ruins the whole dish?

[SperaT]

My worst thing is tarragon. It ruins everything on the plate for me.

Raw onions
Raw tomatoes
Bell peppers of any colour (raw is the worst)
Coriander
Mayonnaise
Mustard

As a PP said, the above pretty much make it impossible for me to pick up any store bought sandwich or salad from a restaurant.

Things I like that others seem not to are

Mushrooms
Celery
Truffle
Cinnamon (the fact people don't like it really surprised me!)
Olives
Capers

banana
lemongrass
chorizo

also dill

Runny egg yolk.

It's a shame - I think the likes of Eggs Hollandaise look lovely, but the thought of cutting into a soft poached egg and yolk contaminating everything makes me shudder.

I'm in this club!

Celery, kiwi, and coriander. Celery makes me very sick, even just the hint of a taste. I can stand a little coriander or kiwi but will pick it out.

Aubergine. No physical reaction , but it just looks so revolting.

Celery and cauliflower

Ketchup

If that counts as a food

Peas. If they're unavoidable in a dish I still find myself wanting to pick them all out like I did as a child!

@Siwggy I'm also surprised that so many people don't like cinnamon. I never realised that was a thing!

Celery

Fucking pesto!

Peas in a paella. Looks good but just stop it.

@QuestionableMouse @Judgedbycats Hating corinader is a genetic thing, your genes actually make it taste like soap.

@Tarkan Agreed, why ruin lamb with mint, totally overpowers it.

Tell restaurants you are allergic.

Truffle. Even a smidge makes everything taste of dirt.

I don't think you're naturally skinny if you only eat one small meal a day... that's not enough food.

Sun-dried tomatoes 🍅

beetroot
oysters
avocado
rosemary
halva
tripe

Raw onion
Blue cheese
Desecrated coconut (my personal name for it)
Dill

I love sweet and savoury combinations, as well as coriander, mushroom, banana, garlic and most other things on here.

Liver or Kidneys - Jut no. Yet my friend loves them.

I will pretty much eat everything else & I love sun dried tomatoes and basil. also a bit of raw celery dipped in salt and a bit of mayonnaise Is quite nice. Each to their own 😁

Passion Fruit 🤮
Clove 🤮
Cardamom 🤮

Coconut but then I used to be allergic - still makes me gag

Pearl barley. It’s the gristly texture. Speaking of which, if the meat isn’t properly trimmed in a stew and you get a lump of gristle or slimy fat, that’s gag-inducing.

And chilli; my spice tolerance is decent but my DH is a complete chilli fiend (will happily crunch bird eye chillies raw) and God help me if I get some of his curry by mistake.

Love coriander, capers and chillies

Hate celery, what an awful flavour.
Also courgettes and anything scooped from a shell.
Only good use for an olive is in a martini.

Cinnamon. It spoils good pastry and everything it touches. Yuck
