Mines coffee. The whole coffee culture made me feel very bland for just wanting a cuppa when out with friends but in my 30's I finally realised it just wasn't for me.

Goats cheese!!!

FraterculaArctica · 25/04/2024 18:12

Gnocchi. I keep thinking, that would be a nice change from pasta. It's horrible every time.

stayathomer · 25/04/2024 18:13

Coffee here too but strangely I used to hate tea and now love it! Same with cake/pastries!

Moonlightsonatas · 25/04/2024 18:13

Wine, don’t like any of them. Would rather drink anything else.

HeliosPurple · 25/04/2024 18:13

Mine is goats cheese too. And blue cheese and very runny ammonia smelling Brie.

theonlygirl · 25/04/2024 18:15

Coffee also, not sure it agrees with me, and red wine, I can't stand it.

WaterDroplet · 25/04/2024 18:16

Haha, I love wine and cheese! Also I'd like to add green tea to my list.

Avocados
Gnocchi
Ketchup

DaisyDando · 25/04/2024 18:25

Avocado. I can’t even stomach it any more. I’d have actively chosen it once, but no.

SocksAndTheCity · 25/04/2024 18:26

Alcohol.

FlightwasfromNewark · 25/04/2024 18:26

Salted caramel

LoveWine123 · 25/04/2024 18:26

Wine

SleepRegression · 25/04/2024 18:28

Aubergine

Emptyheadlock · 25/04/2024 18:28

Olives
Seafood
Champagne and prosecco
Mushrooms

I try all of the above every now and again just to make sure I still dislike them 😳

exomoon · 25/04/2024 18:29

Butternut squash

BiggerBoat1 · 25/04/2024 18:30

These are all things I love so far 🤣. Mine’s smoked salmon. Awful slimy stuff.

NeverEnoughPants · 25/04/2024 18:30

I don't understand this. Surely you either like something or you don't?

There are things I don't like eg coffee and raw tomatoes - but I've always known I don't like them. Why pretend?

Genuine question, I just don't get it.

Noyok · 25/04/2024 18:31

Avocado
Goats cheese
Red Wine
Seafood

Green tea.

I've forced myself to drink countless cups and tried to convince myself I like it because it's healthy, but no, tastes like crap.

Chinese takeaway that's not chips and curry sauce. Most people seem horrified by this.

Nando's Piri Piri sauce. Usually I love spicy food but something about Nando's sauces just doesn't suit me.

Prosecco. Instant headache.

KittyCollar · 25/04/2024 18:31

Wine
Champagne
Prosecco. I enjoy drinking but those three taste like horse piss

Okayden · 25/04/2024 18:36

Also McDonalds, Burger King, KFC burgers and chicken.

Sweet coffee/ Hot Chocolate drinks from Costa, Starbucks etc. Every Christmas I'd get lulled by them, have one sip and regret it. No more.

LamonicBibber1 · 25/04/2024 18:37

Stupid "treats" like krispy Kreme, freakshakes, cupcakes with a mountain of ersatz cack plapped on top of a tiny dry disc of cake (a margarine bomb 😅), well most cakes actually unless baked with proper eggs and butter.

They aren't treats in the true sense, in fact they are very very bad for you and not worth the calories, because the shitty greasy taste doesn't make it worth the damage they do to blood sugar/health.

Also coffees with shit syrups. A proper homemade syrup is a fine thing, but a sweetener-laden slug of chemical muck for about £5 in a coffee shop does not tick my box.

Low fat yogurt should be banned. It's basically wallpaper paste utilised as a conduit to impart sweeteners into the sadly uneducated population of yo yo dieters. They give kids it with school dinners, it genuinely upsets me. It's not a foodstuff, it's a secret punishment for your bodily systems.

Anything that doesn't need palm or seed oil and yet contains it to reduce manufacturing costs. This is a HUGE amount of processed food. I can't eat a lot of chocolate any more, much to my chagrin, because so many brands are now a semi solid lump of palmy waste.
