what foods can't you bring yourself to eat?

Olives. Well, until recently.
I was sure I tried them as a kid and didn’t like them and hadn’t touched one since.
A couple of months ago my kids (in the very impressionable 3&4 y/o stages) bullied me into eating one. They both love them, so found the sight of me spitting it into the sink whilst retching hilarious. Never again.

Shellfish; not huge on seafood in general but like the odd bit of salmon, shrimp, scampi etc, but not the more exotic stuff. Was put off it in two instances; 1# was a fancy restaurant in London where they didn't remove the st tract from the king prawns I ordered and the dish smelt foul in general, the other was a work trip to Houston where a full seafood buffet was laid on. There was no alternative and I was starving after a long day so tucked in. The next 6 hours of hugging the toilet bowl were pretty grim.
Not a fan or Cauliflower, sprouts or Broccoli either; doesn't matter how much seasoning or mint sauce you slather on them, I still hate the underlying taste.

Avocado.
+1The OH used to make some kind of "healthy" chocolate mousse thing that involved making avocado into paste and mixing it with maple syrup and raw cacau powder. I enjoyed it for a while but one day felt myself feeling very nauseous at the prospect of eating it and haven't touched it since.
Also. Olives. Can't stand them and can't understand why anyone would want to eat them. Except, over the years I visited a restaurant called Auberge (now called Cote Brasserie) on St Christopher's Place off Oxford Street a few times. They would give you a complementary bowl of olives when you sat down. For some reason, whatever they' done with them, they were quite nice.

For me it's beetroot, I just can't bring myself to try - made even more weird by the fact that I do like beetroot crisps
I used to be the same but then read it can turn your piss pink, which I thought might be a novelty, so ate a whole jar of pickled beetroot to check. It didn't work but I've loved beetroot since.Gassing Station | Food, Drink & Restaurants | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
