Any finiky eaters here?

[CynanMachae]

Just wanted to know.

Is there any food you WILL NOT eat?

I, for the most part, will eat what you set in front of me, but I will never eat brussel sprouts. I never ate them when we had them, but once my mom offered me 10 bucks to eat ONE. (I was like 12 or so). So I tried. When I came out of the bathroom I vowed never to eat another one.

I have to admit that I will not eat hot dogs. I find them truly disgusting and have not had one since I was 8 years old. Just the thought of what they could put in them is enough to never touch one again. (Strangely enough, I will eat bratwurst)

But I will eat many more things, so my life does not at all seem a wasteland.

I am very picky... It'd be easier to ask me what foods I will eat. I only like 4 vegetables: Green Beans, Corn, Peas and Potatoes. Otherwise, they are all out. No dressings, condiments or anything. So that narrows it down a lot.

I'm not much of a veggie person.

I hate beans. I don't like tomatoes. I don't like pickles or onions. I hate mint of all kinds. I won't chew gum.

But I can force myself to eat almost anything...hehehe

I eat almost anything. Except things I'm alergic to, which include dairy products, artichokes (even though I love them), and the white asparagus (curiously, not the green, which is great, since I love it). About the only thing that I won't touch is peanut butter. I find it revolting.

I am a very picky eater. But the things that I hate the most are tomatoes and pickles.

[tinidril]

If only I were a picky eater, I wouldn't have so much trouble with my weight!

I used to be pickier than I am now, I wouldn't touch mushrooms, tomatoes, boiled onions, okra, eggplant, or organ meats.

I still don't like eggplant and organ meat, but I have learned to like everything else in one form or another. For instance, I like okra in gumbo served over rice. I like cherry, grape, or romano tomatoes raw and any tomato cooked, and I like tiny pearl onions even boiled.

Now, if only I didn't love chocolate so much....

I usually will eat anything. The only type of food that I don't care for is seafood. If I have never tried a certain food, I will at least try it once.

I can't think of a situation where I'd be happy to eat anything that once had a shell, like crab or snail.
Raw meat would also be a major challenge to even be willing to try.
Bugs... *grimace* I had a friend who used to eat ants and slugs to shock me.

As far as "normal food".... I'm not interested in green peppers. Our school cook had a great affection for them one year. I don't think we were fed a single meal that didn't include massive amounts of slimy, overcooked green peppers. Cantalope is cloying, but I CAN eat it if I have to. Ummm... I'm pretty sure there are other foods I dislike, but it usually has more to do with too much fat on the meat than the flavor.

You're prejudice about crab is grossly unfounded. For my thoughts on eating this most scrupmtous of meats, go here: ixhermit.blogspot.com/2005/02/i-got-crabs.html

[pink3elephant]

I think I like a good variety of foods.. . .
although i know i hate any kind of fruit pies(just cant stand mushy fruit i guess), hate pasta salads, not too fond of beets(altough i never tried one, bu they kind of gross me out big time!), hmmmm. . . . well thats all that comes to mind now!

[Child of Immanuel]

I won't eat mushrooms, peppers, or olives. I'm sure I have some more, but I can't think of them.

[Saru]

I don't eat ninjas, cartoon characters, childish squiggles, poster paint, those lil tab things that hold the labels on your jeans, magnets, fluff, kung fu masters, hermits, screw drivers, incendiary pigs (and other assorted volatile farm creatures), car tires, those adrenaline power ups in UT2K4, reply buttons or 1 billion year old tartar sauce.

Anything else is fair game.
