Olives. They are my kryptonite.
Andouillette. I tried it while I was in France on my honeymoon without knowing what it was and gagged.
My heart goes out to you, to have such a lovely event in your life tainted, by what I call French Haggis
Quelle horreur!My heart goes out to you, to have such a lovely event in your life tainted, by what I call French Haggis
Not even a nice pâté de campagne, or a spot of Ardennes?Pretty much anything that begins with, ends in, or contains "liver," is out of the question.
I refuse to eat anything with a white/cream sauce.
Not gonna happen! No way. No how!
Because of allergies I am unable to eat anything with peanuts or tree nuts. Pretty much lights out for me.
Everything else is good to go.
Several things -
Canned tuna fish. The smell alone makes me gag. Tuna sushi or grilled tuna steak, on the other hand, is just peachy.
Ama Ebi (raw shrimp?). Vile.
Raw octopus/tako. Anything that I chew twenty times and remove from my mouth that still looks unchewed except for a small dent in a corner is not food.
Sea urchin. Really vile.
An Ecuadorian soup called fonesca. I almost threw up on my host family. Having said that, I was a teenager with very restricted tastes back then, so I may eventually retract this.
Other than that,I hate about 99% of what Andrew Zimmern eats....
