What's your food phobia?

This thread was inspired by this article:

What sort of foods which would be consumed by the average, well-adjusted adult can you just not stomach?

I for one can't eat cold cuts. There's something about the thought of eating cold meat that makes me nauseous. I've also met quite a few people who won't eat tomatoes, which I find extremely odd.

I wouldn't clean my garage floor with it let alone eat it.

That is correct, sir.

I had Christmas night dinner at a hotel in Toledo and *that* was on the buffet line. Needless to say, it stayed in thet steam tray rather than going on my plate. Ugh.

For me, it is and always has been seafood. Even as a child, I couldn't stand the thought of eating it and used to have knock-down-drag-out fights with my mother over it. There's something about texture of fish, as you place it in your mouth and start to chew....repellant. I can actually feel my gorge rising as I type this.

I'm in my mid 40's now and I know I'll never get over it. It's a psychological foible that's beyond all reason & common sense. I can't even contemplate eating any of it: fish, oysters, lobster, clams, shrimp, octopii...the whole gamut. That's an experience I'll never partake in.

Gum. I focking hate gum. I hate to hear it, I hate to see it, I hate to step in it, I hate to smell it.

[DaneMcCloud]

Tongue.

Gross.

Oh, and liver.

Why in the world would anyone want to eat a liver?

Disgusting.

I don't like mussels nor liver. I'll eat anything else though - gonads, heart, fried skin, tail, organs - whatever.

Sour cream. Can't stand it.

[Abba-Dabba]

bugs
brains
rodents
liver
spam
eel

that is a good start

There is something very wrong with you. Salami is the most perfect food ever created (maybe after bacon).

All y'all just need these foods prepared correctly and you might change your mind. I used to dislike many of these same foods until I learned how to prepare them correctly.

I agree with the salad and buffet bars, and some (most) restaurants - scary.

I bet if it were a CHICK name "Hominy" with big giant hooters and a nice ass you wouldn't be saying that?



As for me I am afraid of NO FOOD. There are some I don't like but NONE that scare me.

Lake fish (crappie, bass, catfish) or sushi.

Aw, nothing to be ashamed of there CB. Hell, I used to think Brittany Spears was sexy and had all kinds of fantasy's about things I'd do to her if we ever met up.

If Mexican Boys in tights, leg warmers and bandannas are your thing who are we to judge.

Pretty much, pickles - the only reall 'food' I can't touch. Really, anything tart for that matter.

I do, however, 'try' a pickle every 2 years or so - to make sure I'm still correct in my phobia lol.

i fried a turkey and forgot to take the giblet bag out. It was really good.

Nasty bastards everywhere.

This and egg salad sandwich's. I got sick on one as a little kid and can't eat them to this day. Regular egg's, I love them, but I would rather step in the ring with the MMA champion of the world, than dig into an egg salad sandwich.
