Are you a 'fussy' eater?

[Mercy]

There are certain types of food which I cannot abide, however often I have tried to eat them. And there are other things which I have never tried and doubt I ever will.

For me

a) Food I have tried and just don't like

Aubergines
Courgettes
Polenta
Sashimi
Tapioca/semolina
Pearl barley
Herb dumplings
Fatty meat
Green peppers
Squid
Runner beans

b) Food I refuse to try

Raw oysters
Snails
Octopus

I'm sure there's more!

Foods I refuse to try

I see your snails and oysters, and I raise you

TRIPE

used to be a fussy eater as a child, survived till 8 or so on eggy bread, raw carrots and brown rice

now am proud to say eat everything on your list except the fatty meat

hate mushroom and have veggie tendencies though

not tripe though

No, I will eat anything except sea urchin. Which I tried once and almost vomited at the table.

Not sure if I would choose to eat brains, but would eat them if presented with them out of poilteness

Tripe and onions

I've tried octopus and squid. 'Tis OK.

Don't like seafood at all or anything I feel may be 'slimy'

Don't like

Tapioca/semolina
Humous
Augergines

Can't think of much else I don't like so no I'm not a fussy eater. Dd is though and apparently it's all my fault

Oh God no to tripe. My mum loves it.

Not tried brains but would probably have a go.

Indeed it is sagger!

LOL at it being your fault. I'll sit by you and eat all your slimy stuff as I love them all! . My dd can help me, and ds can sit with you in the picky seats!

I'm veggie, but do not like mushrooms. I have tried and tried but don't.
I also don't like honey.

Even if I ate meat, I really don't htink I would try oysters or snails or mussels.
i did have squid before becoming veg and didn't really likt it.

Yes.

Al spicy/peppery/salty food. No crisps, mexican, thai, indian, well seasoned italian etc

Lord - life's too short to be that wound up about it TBH.

I won't eat meat, fish, goat's cheese, or blue cheese

I have NEVER (even pre-vegetarian) eaten offal of any kind, oysters, snails, eel, squid, mussels, etc etc

I absolutely CAN'T eat olives or rice pudding, or anything with the consistency or taste of rice pudding (anything with hot milk in, porridge, etc). Rice pudding I was made to eat as a child; olives I mistook for grapes aged 3 and got a very nasty surprise. My revulsion for both of these is far stronger than any other food, having been forced (inadvertantly in the case of olives) to have them as a child.

I used to get really confused by 'Brains Faggots'

(I think we had them as kids once or twice)

I feel sick just thinking about some of these foodstuffs.

Guess that makes me a fussy eater, lol.

Prunes and liver, not on anyones hate list? I love both of those.

Oh god, goat cheese and olves.....my idea of heaven!

ooo I don't like olives either. I'm getting 'fussier' by the minute.

I hate seafood, but fish is OK. dh loves seafood though, so I guess that we're giving our kids mixed messages - LOL

I can't even buy liver, much less cook it.

DH used to have a list of folk who would cook him a plateful if they were having it.

oooh I love liver and onions with lashings of thick gravy - dh doesn't like it though

hhmmmm him and his seafood me and my liver

bleugh.

Sorry.

iota - we'll have none of that now. Seperate meal are not allowed.

{blush}

Guess I won't be invited certain places for dinner.

rofl.
