Given the culinary bent that many posters have displayed (what with the pizza thread and many of the "food tangents" that end up on This or That?), today's Offhand Weird Random Survey List Question is:
WHAT FOODS CAN'T YOU STAND??
My list (and, as usual, like with all similar threads of these that I start, I'm sure I'll come up with more):
CANTALOUPE. Can't stand it. Don't know why, but to me it tastes like wall paint.
FRENCH CUT GREEN BEANS. The problem here is not the green beans, it's the "French cut" deal. To me, I feel like I am about to swallow a large amount of wet fingernail clippings and I absolutely gag. It's the texture.
RED WINE. Totally allergic to it or something, but have NEVER been able to handle even one sip, and I'll spare y'all the details beyond that.
CHICKEN LIVERS. I know, it's a cliche, but eeeeeeeeeeeeeuuuw!!! Sludgy texture does not help. I did have some calves liver one time years ago that wasn't TOO bad (a lot of ketchup helped), but nothing can redeem chicken livers.
RELISH. Whose idea WAS this???? Completely nasty stuff.
PINE NUTS. Too waxy, like gnawing on crayons.
