Raw onions in a salad.

Pomegranate in anything.

When I’m away from home:

Not having a napkin/kitchen roll for sticky lips or fingers.
I hate having to ask for this.

I hate having to eat a delicate or light pudding aka dessert with a big spoon. Eg strawberries and cream or ice cream, I like a teaspoon.

Fresh mint. I love all other herbs but mint just annihilates my palate and makes me feel like I've had a toothpaste chaser to my mouthful.
