Bloody Big Breakfast...
No, grease is good.
But some bugger from Big Breakfast (probably that Bacon dude...many joshings ensued I'm sure) likened oysters, which I'm quite fond of, to someone else's phlegm. Thanks. It's like trying not to think of a pink elephant when you gulp down the zinc-y goodness.

Cheese!
One of my earliest memories was on a family holiday to France, when I was about 3, and being abandoned on a dusty street in Saint Jean de Luz for a seemingly interminable time after refusing point blank to enter a fromagerie.

I'm actually not against all cheese. Melted mozarella is OK, basically because it doesn't actually taste or smell of "real" cheese in any way, and it's usually flavoured nicely with peperoni, mushrooms, onions and spicy beef.

But it is a complete mystery to me why anyone would, under any circumstances, put in their mouth a lump of crud from the bottom of a vat of mouldy milk, that has then been left on a shelf for a year to get even more mouldy, and then go on about how lovely and mouldy it actually is. Idiots. You can get worse by using goat's milk, which then stinks of cheese and goats.

Look at this: (From the Sun website).



You will notice that the fly is not actually eating the cheese. Flies have standards, you know.

So, that's my nomination. Cheese. The most disgusting food in the world, bar none.

Brussel Sprouts
...contain arsenic 100% true fact, its what gives them their flavour. I've watched too many Agatha Christie films as a kid to think that eating things with poison in is a good idea. Almonds too apparently.

Used to like honey until Compo in "Last of the Summer Wine" described it as "bee spit". Haven't touched the stuff since.

Tomatoes (raw), pure evil cold slimey jelly filled crap with added pips. My wife made me eat one for a dare, chucked up on my plate.

Some additional horror for Brussell Sprout haters
My girlfriend got a juicer for her birthday and has become addicted to brussell sprout and brocolli juice. And she expects snoggage post quaff? Not on her nelly.

And I hate coriander, soapy herb of the devil

Poisonous, sickly sweet, toxic-waste excuse for a fucking beverage.

That sad, manky
"salad" that ruins burger van burgers. Do they fry it as well? It ruins the taste of miscellaneous animals' arseholes fried in month-old grease! Plus, it reminds me of the stuff in my fridge's salad tray that's trying to kill me.

I hate.....
- Butter (christ it's evil)
- Milk (smells and taste HORRIBLE - it's cow juice!)
- Cheese (gah!)
- Fish

A possible strange collection, but then again I love sprouts and also like celery. Two things that lots of people here have shrieked about :-)

It almost spoiled a good Xmas dinner, that did.

Cheap Pasties where you can taste the burnt meat in them.
Cheap Pork Pies, loving that gristle!

Salted Liquorice
I don’t mind the normal, Bertie Basset kind, but for some reasons the Danes love theirs with salt. There is nothing to compare to the oral horror of stuffing a lovely looking sweetie, clearly covered in spangly chunks of sugar only to find that the spangly bits are in fact rock salt. I mean, WTF?

I also had the misfortune, on another visit, to buy an Ice Lolly on a really hot day just outside Copenhagen Zoo and found that the fucking thing had a solid core of frozen salted liquorice. Cunts.

Lime (or any other flavour but lime's the worst) jelly
or jello if you're American.
Jelly is made from gelatine - that gooey cat food like stuff you get on ham etc. - which is made from boiled up bits of animals.
Oh, and marzipan, Mr. Climox - it's made from almond paste and sugar. It's still shite.
Hate coconut too.

back in primary school, whenever you got a bowl of peas, there was always one, and only one, giant pale green pea (possibly bean) in there that was manky.

After careful consideration, I found one "food" that I hate
Marzipan.

Who in their right minds would make food from sugar and starch? Sticky sickly smelly ultra-sweet "candy". Blegh.

Woo to peanuts, Yay to Chocolate
But NOT together for the love of God!

Why ruin two perfectly good foods by combining them? Why?! Why?!

This is why, even though I love toffee, maltesers, orange and coffee fondant - I can never eat Revels, because of the fear that I will accidently eat one of the peanut ones, which will cause me to scream....

also: Marzipan? why?

And I'm sure I'm the only person in the world who doesn't like Carrots. They taste a bit like Death...

That is all....

Whisky. Fucking stinking whisky.
Ever since I was 15 and me and my mate drank 8 *large* whiskys in 30 minutes (his 15 year old girlfriend had just had their baby christened and I was helping him drown his sorrows).

If I even get a whiff of the stuff I get a flashback to the 'do' and feel instantly sick. Fucking stinking whisky.

Never feed me Salad
Sprouts (force-fed as a child, never got over it), Olives (bleh, foulness), Tomatoes (raw - watery nastyness), Lettuce (tastes bitter and generally nasty), Vinegar (why douse your food in acid? it makes it taste nasty), Cucumber (watery, slimy AND tasteles), Mussels (looks revolting).

Oh I almost forgot Broad Beans. How could I

vomit inducing local delicacies
We here in Hawaii have a delicacy called "poi", which is made of beaten and mashed up taro root, and is incredibly vile. It has a gluey consistency, and a color thats sort of purplish brown, with greenish grey overtones. Local custom dictates that newcomers must be made to try it, under pain of ostracization and being thought unsympathetic to local culture, which supposedly is greatly superior to all other cultures, simply because we have nice weather most of the time. DO NOT ever under any circumstances try this stuff...it makes English cuisine look positively wonderful by comparison (i KNOW, b3tA is a British Thing, but still...).

Also, SPAM is considered a great delicacy hereabouts. One of the funniest things I've ever seen was a note stuck to the refrigerator door of one of my cronies, which read: "Honey, don't eat the Spam Casserole...we're having company for dinner". I've declined every invitation to eat there since.

ETA: My Irish grandparents used to try to make me eat all sorts of dreck, like the ever popular Bangers and Mash or "Bombers and Trash" as my siblings and I used to call it. Not for me thanks!

Offal
Believe it or not I used to work at Buckingham Palace. To make up for the awful wages, the canteen tried to be really posh and come up with "exotic" dishes. After a huge night out my mate struggled to lunch and ordered something as safe and bland as possible to help his toxic belly. So he gets the dish of the day which looks like mushrooms and rice. Wasn't mushrooms though was it...fucking chicken livers. He nearly died after the first mouthful and damn near broke his neck running to the loo to puke.

Chicken fuckin livers.
