Any kind of vegetable that tastes sweet. Parsnips are the main offender. If I wanted sweet, I would eat a cake. It's just messing with the nature of things.

Anything goat. Including the cheese. Utterly rank. And every cook and chef in the world insists on spurting goat's cheese over everything.

Sea cucumbers. They are not cucumbers. At all. Where's trades description when you need it.

Shellfish, in fact most fish if it looks like it's ever been a fish
Offal (except steak and kidney pie, or faggots)
Parsnips
Raw celery
Cooked rhubarb (I like it raw)

and I probably wouldn't have steak tartare again.  Raw mince...yum.  It doesn't actually digest; it just makes you feel bloated all night and then you dump it out in the morning.



Hard work sometimes pays off in the end, but laziness ALWAYS pays off NOW.

Mussels as they make me vom about an hour and a half after eating them.  I like eating them, though, just not the projectile inevitability.
Overly processed stuff - mushy peas, McDs and other fast food outlets.  (This does not include Oxford's fleet of kebab vans - but only after BEER)
Fried full belly clams - like eating a deep fried working dock.

That's it, though.  Some of the food mentioned on this thread is on my favourites list, especially capers, anchovies, mackerel (smoked or unsmoked), kidney, liver, goat's cheese, blue cheese and pickled herrings.  Mmmm, herring.

Pineapple.

Nothing "edible" should make your mouth bleed.

Try peeling it.
Enzyme.

Disolves the skin in your mouth.

That's something I didn't know. Every day's a school day here. 
What on earth am I doing here on this beautiful day?! This is the only life I've got!!

Andouillette.
Smells like shit.
Tastes like (I imagine) shit.

Anchovies. Fish is bad enough. Hairy fish is off the scale.

Tomates.
 
I'm fine with them as an ingredient (e.g. in bolognaise or curry) but completely fail to see the point of them on their own: raw or cooked. They're nasty little bags of seeds and vinegar.  :sick:  
Fresh from the garden, warmed by the sun, they explode with flavour in your mouth. Heavenly!

But I can't eat natto. Mrs B loves it.

Andouillette tastes very nice. But yes, it smells like shit. Mrs B was once enjoying one until I described the odour as 'farmyard', which quite put her off.

I'll eat most stuff,  the only things I avoid in this country would be sprouts, cabbage*, turnip and broccoli (*red cabbage is OK, it doesn't taste of cabbage..) I try to avoid overly processed stuff as well.  I've eaten tripe, and haggis, and andouilliette  and a whole heart, so not much in the meat line phases me.  I suspect I'd object to eating cat or dog, unless I was really desperate, and faced with a choice between one of my furry buddies and J Random Human I'm not too sure which way I'd tilt....

One thing I wouldn't eat is milk.







I'd consume it while it's liquidous, i.e. drink it, but if it's got to the point where consuming it would be described as "eat" rather thank "drink", then it's past its best imho.  :sick: :sick:

Anything with shell fish in, its not that I don't like shell fish but please take it out of the shell, its the sound that puts me off when it is being stirred sounds like a bucket of gravel.

Courgettes

Mushy peas though are YUUUUUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMY

Apart from all sorts of dead (or living) animals, there's nothing at all I will absolutely refuse to eat.

I'm not keen on papaya or mayonnaise, but if offered them when hungry I won't object.

I would not eat anything that actually screamed in agony as I bit it. Otherwise its all up for grabs.  noted above andoullliete or whatever does smell and taste like actual poo so  I won't order that again. Very nasty feacal burping.

There is some manner of filthy comment to be had there but for once I will not lower myself.
