Foods That You Despise

Pizza- Yep, I will not eat pizza. My family was very poor when i was young, and we essentially lived off rejected pizzas my mother brought home from the Godfathers she worked at. Sour memories spoiling a beautiful thing? Perhaps.

When I was around 20yo, I went out west and stayed with a friend who was in the Air Force and had a house off-base. We ordered in pizza every day for the 3 months I was there. It really turned me off to delivered pizza, and I've never ordered another one since.

When I was around 45, I picked up a part-time job delivering (Kosher) pizza. Once I found out what went on behind the scenes, before the pie gets to your house, I was turned off even more.

I'll still order a slice with all the toppings when I'm out. Or on rare occasions, I might order a whole pie to bring home. But to get it delivered? No way.


I'd rather have gyros though.
+1 ... good gyros are hard to find, but when you do, its heaven.

Flavored coffees like Hazelnut, French Vanilla, Pumpkin, etc.

Add non dairy creamer and artificial sweeteners and it's a Triple Threat.

Right, the flavored coffees are just wrong. My dad makes a pretty good coffee at his house then puts hazelnut creamer in it. Wrong.

My father puts coffee in his sugar free vanilla creamer.
I can only drink my coffee black and my tea unsweetened.
 
Okra.
10 minutes gentle simmering & it's a firm tasteless mess
11 minutes gentle simmering & it's a snotty tasteless mess
:nono:

My mother had a running joke that at the end of a meal, she would say "Oh! I forgot to serve the Okra." My brother and I had no idea what she was talking about. It wasn't until I was in my 20s and saw okra on the menu at a restaurant. So I ordered some, just to find out what it was. I didn't like it, and I never ordered it again.

Pickled okra is very good. No slime at all.
 
I will eat just about anything but I absolutely hate mushrooms. Something about the flavor and texture of them make me gag.
 
I grew up on it - I was raised by my Old Order Amish grandparents and it was on the table a lot. I still eat it at times but it is hard to find a good grade

My grandpa used to bake the cow tongue with sweet potato.
So delicious!

Marty, let me tell you something. You just totally cracked me in to hysterical laughing. I didn't know it was you until I looked over at your location. I said, "who is this posting from south Texas?" I looked over at your name and said, "that's Marty." What? Then I read your avatar...LOL, lol. I posted that saying in the non-biblical says thread a few days ago. Is it coincidence or are you just messing with me?

tell me you've eaten mountain oysters.

Since that time however, I learned what head cheese was, and I refuse to eat foods that can taste me back. So they're both off the menu.

Complete co-ink-e-dink!
I even have a t-shirt with that on it. I got it at a Ron White concert.
I have eaten mountain oysters and I do like them.
