Yes I really hate okra. It's awful. Can't get into kale either.

Kippers. All those bones.

I very, very rarely go out to eat and when I do it's always with DD2, we go to either Cosmo or for a pub lunch

My all time favourite meal is Steak Pie so I always have that, without fail

At Cosmo, I like Singapore Chicken, Sweet and Sour Chicken, Beef or Chicken in Blackbean Sauce, Cantonese Beef

For Pudding I always have grapes or lychees if they have them

Uuuurgh, liqourice. Absolutely horrific stuff. As is anything aniseedy tbh.
It's one of the very few things I will point blank refuse to eat.

Anything containing Garlic - seriously vile stuff - Mayonnaise - almost equally vile and any type of vinegar - definitely vile! Plus pasta, pizza or anything Italian really.

Try eating out these days when you can't stomach any of the above. 😡
(Even if a dish doesn't actually contain any of these they insist on "Dressing" the dish with balsamic vinegar. 👺👺👺)

Zukie I take my hat off to you. You are the only person who would TOTALLY understand where I am coming from. 😁

I'm pretty unfussy and will eat most things, except processed meat/economy meat/'Value' meat/tinned meat etc. - I'd rather just ditch meat altogether than eat those type of things. We don't eat meat often, and try to buy wisely/as ethically as possible when we do.

And tripe. Tried it, didn't like it. There's probably more, but nothing immediately leaps to mind.
