Whats NEVER on your list?

[jlox]

When you do a food shop, what food(s) would never ever make it to your trolley?

I have never and will never buy bell peppers, just the smell makes me heave and they have no place in any of my dinners. Pineapple too.

Things i automatically pick up without having to think.. olives, spinach and red leicester cheese.

I can't do the fakey bacon stuff....

but I am absolutely on board with halloumi grilled as a bacon-ish substitute in a full English.

Fennel
Aubergines
Veal
Avocadoes
Haribo
Battery eggs
Squid, mussels, whelks, cockles, scallops
Tomato soup
Ready-prepared veg
Spinach
Lobster
Cherry-flavoured anything

@jlox

Tortillas (I'm not sure the mass produced ones they should be sold as edible)
Fennel
Air freshener
Anything with artificial sweeteners

Tripe
Kidney
Black pudding
Prunes
Dates

Yours really has made me laugh
Just wondering now if everyone else regularly buys
Tripe 🤢

Flavoured gin. Sacrilege.

I love Polish tripe soup ( Drozdzowki z serem) a staple winter dish here.

Avocado
Prawns
Green tea
Turkey
Tinned meat
Spinach
Stilton cheese
Anything spicy
Pepper

Olives
Tomatoes
Ice cream
Macaroni cheese

Bananas - I am highly allergic
Fake milk and meat
Kidneys, I like liver though
Also air freshener/fabric conditioner (make me SOOO itchy)
Only buy Marmite for my Mum - otherwise has no place in the world!

There is a lot of fish and seafood hate here!
Mine would be:
Processed meat
Energy drinks
Squash
Coconut

@DrJonesIpresume i assumed battery and eggs were separate on your list and wondering 'woah, who NEVER needs a battery' 😅

Ready meals
Quinoa
Cheese strings
Tinned meat
Taramasalata

Oh and okra (not that I usually see it in the supermarket). Food of the devil.

liver
kidneys
oysters

I love vintage/v mature cheddar, esp ones with a slightly saltly crunch. I don't like red leicester per se but did try one called Red Fox once, which was mature and quite crumbly - THAT was lovely.

Never buys -

Goat's cheese/blue cheese - almost make me heave
Coriander - the devil's herb
Olives (see goat's cheese)
Aubergines
Okra
Fizzy drinks
Citrus fruit
Fruit juice
Beer
Anything bitty in a bag - trail mix, bombay mix etc
French mustard
Chillis
Air fresheners - my mum loves the plug in buggers, but for me they = asthma plays up
Avocados

Olives
Smoked fish
Grapefruit
Jar sauces
Ravioli
Ready meals
Pot noodle type things
Liquorice
Whole Mango (I love mango but I can’t cut it myself so buy it ready cut)
Offal
Okra
Anchovies
Tahini
Sardines

Red Leicester cheese! 🤢

Tinned stew

Frozen roast potatoes

Rum

Pork - it's like human flesh.

and you know this how?

Crab sticks 😝rice pudding and tinned meat. Also never buy fabric conditioner.

Never in my life have I bought an onion. After 3 years of marriage my husband recently admitted to me that stuffing on Sunday roast does indeed taste better without the onion. He has seen the light!!!

Tomatoes, including any ready made sauces. Ketchup is fine, pasata is acceptable, but nothing with tomato lumps and/or onions.

Aubergine and courgettes are also some of my least favourite things EVER, but much easier to avoid.

Oh, and peppers 🤮

In terms of stuff I never buy but lots of others do:

Yoghurt
Sweetcorn
Fabric softener
