Food aversions anyone?

Post Reply New Topic

I don't like onions, I can't stand mashed vegetables and such, I can't stand cooked vegetables. I don't like my foods touching unless it's a casserole dish. There are many others but just right now not in the mood to list all of them.

This is completely the case with me, since I was 2 years old-now I'm 33.

Yup, mostly. I eat white chicken breast-too labor intensive & wasteful to do very often, bc. I discard almost all of it as inedible, totally enjoy the little bit left that "meets my standards". What I live on is variations of white bread w/butter, white rice & pasta w/butter & lotsa' salt & some paprika (recent innovation I made) & a little black pepper. Paprika mediates the plastic-y taste of pasta/rice, since I don't put sauce or whatnot on.
Very recently found new resource for my "special needs", so have been able to go back to eating beef. Store has specific instructions on which meat to start with & how to grind & package it, so there are no traumatizing bad food experiences.
Cannot tolerate food that has hard chips & rubbery bits interspersed throughout, it MUST be CONSISTENT. It has to be chewable to point of powdery disintegration before I'll consume food, can't trust otherwise. I shred it up in frying pan w/potato masher while cooking, paranoid about it being undercooked.
Cannot stand any seafood, most veg & fruit, most meat, condiments (kethup, mustard, onions, vinegar), most spices/herbs, and whole-wheat/healthy/ authentic/"good for you" foods. Know it's very bad for me, but it's non-negotiable.
Eggs & cheese both have awful texture, taste, and smell (IMHO). Exception to cheese aversion:dense cheesecake or creamcheese frosting is yummy. Exception to egg aversion:egg noodles pasta, and cookie dough.

I don't have any food that bad. Do hate onions unless they are cooked at which case I don't mind them.Some other things bother me but I am fairly flexible. Now my eating habits are another story....

Peppers and jello.

I can't tolerate anything that's white and creamy.

Well to avoid listing just about every food there is, I'll just say I can't eat any type of mixed food (like soup; which is horrible anyway, pizza, sandwiches, anything like that..) and I don't eat any dairy plus alot of other things. If it's not the texture or smell that puts me off it's what it looks and tastes like. *shudder*.

Oh - and tomatoes - fresh tomatoes are disgusting!

caraway seeds!! !

nutmeg (though I love cinnamon), celery, tea, coffee, alcoholic beverages, olives...

In all cases it's the smell that bothers me (I have a warped sense of smell.)

If it isn't organic or accompanied by organic things, i might have trouble getting it down. I prefer my food be made of matter as well.

I absolutely cannot stand frozen peaches, or frozen milk. I love peaches and I love milk, I just don't like the texture of them when they're frozen.

You can get bounty bars everywhere in the UK, they're as common as mars bars and snickers.

Must be just the USA?

What are mars bars?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_bar

Mars bars in Britain are more like Milky Way's now - not that good really.

I forgot to mention I also can't stand sour crout (sp?)

Mars bars used to be nice, now they are so sweet theyre sickly and there is just no need for it at all. I eat about half the bar and then I have to stop otherwise I feel sick.

Going slightly off topic here, I tried rice pudding for the first time as an adult today (last time I tried and hated it was when I was 4 years old) and it was ok but weird. I can't seem to get round the idea that you can eat rice as a dessert as well as it being a normal acompaniment for meals such as curries. I know a different rice is used in rice pudding but I still cannot equate 'rice' with 'dessert'. I also think bread and butter pudding is wrong too for the same reason. Why I thought I'd share this with people I don't know but hey I have.
