Indeed. I just don't get the love of sponge and jelly together. Foul stuff

Then again I don't see the appeal of eating meat and like hot sauce on everything so I'm probably not the average foodie

I realise this will get me flamed with accusation of snobbery, but McDonalds et al. Just that awful fatty greasy smell is enough to make me queasy before the concept of the taste even comes into play.

I also cannot for the life of me fathom buttering/margarining or whatever toast when you're going to put something else 'wet'/has its own juice like jam or beans on top of it. I realise that it's regarded as the 'norm', but seriously don't understand what the hell is the point of that.

Ok, thanks I always thought it was eggs. Yeah, it does sound grim.

I could be wrong, but the Caviar type stuff is the eggs. The Soft cod roes are more male generated...

For me it's sweets, all of them. The smell of something like a wine gum makes me want to vomit. I hate being around people eating them.

I hate spending loads of money on prime fillet beef and guests saying they can't eat it rare. It's a sin to overcook it imo!”

No, I usually pass out!

Fresh soft cod's roe is delicious dipped in seasoned flour and fried in butter then served on toast - yummy! Takes me back to my childhood that!

I hate anything with a slimy texture, including oysters, undercooked fried, poached or boiled eggs, that Chinese soup with swirls of egg floating in it, full fat mayonnaise, and mushroom soup - I love mushrooms but not when they've been whizzed up - it makes the texture go all slimy, yuk!

Oh and black pudding - I just can't get past the fact that it's made almost entirely from congealed blood......

:yawn:

Lamb, its smells horrible any way you cook it. Black and white pudding as well, totally disgusting stuff as it smells and tastes horrible.

Milk, as a beverage
Dill pickles
Any kind of smoked meat
Undercooked eggs with runny yolk, double yuck!

Another for me is crisps. EVERYONE seems to love shovelling crisps into their mouths on a daily basis, almost ritualistically. But even if I can superficially enjoy a given variety at the time, they all just ultimately leave me with a generically bland 'aftertaste' typified by an unpleasant dry mouth sensation.

Snap!
Also even the thought of Mayonnaise makes me heave too, that new ad campaign is putting me right off ordering mash when I'm out as some chef is going to be "inspired" by it

Coconut (have been given too many cakes that have been ruined by adding it),
lambs lettuce (no taste, slimy texture, ruins many a bag me salad)

No not at all. If it's properly rested there will be no blood.

Not mine isn't!

Golden, crunchy, buttery top and underneath a rich, creamy custard dotted with plump sultanas......nom nom!

Being from Bury I adore black pudding. Funnily enough my wife's family are from Clonakilty, another town famous for its black pudding. Occasionally however I can't shake the thought that black pudding is really nothing more than a glorified big scab.
