Foods you wouldn't eat even if you were on Survivor

Post Reply New Topic

I saw the weird foods you love thread, and it made me think of food I hate:
(I'm practically gagging as I type this)

canned tuna
celery
squid
raisins
canned sardines or other fish
spam

food combo I abhor: hamburger with mustard

Ketchup
Cheese puffs
Processed bologna
And here's the mother of them all:
Spiders, especially the big ones

(Side note: in Cambodia, large spiders are cooked and eaten as part of the local cuisine. The practice of eating them began under the horrors of the Khmer Rouge, when people were starving and had to eat whatever they could find, and discovered that spiders were quite tasty and so the practice is continued today. I'll bet they're delicious, but seeing as how even the tiniest of spiders can make me jump back in horror, the thought of popping a massive spider into my mouth is just too horrifying to imagine )

any kind of canned meat or seafood...
eggnog
shrimp ::::shudder::::
raw eggs
jarred matzoh balls

two words:

head cheese!

Parsnips. I refuse to believe that they are not poison.

these following foods make me vomit

sausage
eggs
omlate
walnut ice cream
mayonaise
cream cheese
spinage
brockaly
cheese (altho i like it on pizza and i like it melted in burritos)
potato salad
cosela

thats all i can think of right now

Baked beans. The one food i truly despise, and can't even look at without coming close to puking - in fact, even typing about them is making me feel faintly sick. I seriously consider them to be on the same level of disgustingness as a plateful of poo(p) or vomit

Duck Liver with Apple

Haggis with chips
Haggis without chips
Haggis Fat Choy

I would rather starve than eat canned SPAM

peanut butter. ewww
I especially cannot stand the smell of it when i am rinsing off my sons utensils covered in it.

Liver of any sort
I can eat peanuts but hate peanutbutter... go figure

In addition to Aspergers, I also have "supertasters" syndrome.
I absolutely cannot and will not eat:
VEGETABLES, with the exception of corn, peas, beans, and potatoes.
EGGS,
Yougurt,
Sour creme,
Creme cheese,
Apricots, peaches, pineapple, and other sticky fruit.
I would rather be given JEVITY through a tube in my nose than eat any of the above.
I would also rate onions, sauerkraut, and broccoli as the grossest food items.

Due to having all my molars out, I also do not eat stakes (with the exception of the Salisbury kind). No coconut or raisins, either.

Seriously, I could eat bugs, but not if they were still alive and had spiny legs. I actually know what a live cockroach could do to your esophogus and stomach lining with its legs and jaws, and it's not pleasant. Spiders - I'd have to remove the fangs, but I hear tarantrulla tastes like crab, so hey. Grubs are icky, and I suspect they're like swallowing snot, but I'd have to behead them too, unless they were dead.

As a norm, I would have a very hard time eating animals that are still alive, including oysters.

Tongues, brains, genitalia, eyeballs, fetuses, and intestines are other things I would very likely have a hard time eating. If I was starving, however, I just might.

I honestly do not know if I could eat, knowingly, human flesh, skin or organs, even out of sheer desperation. I hope I never have to find out.

I have food sensitivies to mustard, vinegar, coffee and raw tomatoes, but I'm a tough girl and can eat these things if I have too.

I would a much harder time with avocado, peas, raw squash, raw eggs, sauerkraut, dates, things made with blood, certain exotic fruits with fleshy texture that I'm not accustomed to, and unfamiliar foods that have a strong and unpleasent odor.

In an average lifetime, you'll eat 70 assorted insects and 10 spiders while sleeping, so arthropods are just protein, and a plentiful source at that. C'mon, just think of all the animals that live off them. We eat crabs, shrimp, and lobster, right, so why not insects and spiders? Squid is also a delicacy (which I don't think I've had).

However, I hate:

Bolonga in any form

salami

mustard

most ham

most fish (espescially tuna and fish heads)

Swiss cheese

frog legs (not because they're gross, but because I love frogs)

any rodent (likewise)

clams in any form

ribs (while watching any documentary about scavengers or any bloody horror movie)
