A few things spring to mind...* Sprouts. I might have liked these had a sneaky parent not hidden one inside a pile of mashed potato once, just big enough to fit into my mouth in one go. Needless to say, it went in, I gagged, and my revulsion was met with cries of "don't spit it out! It's good for you!"
* Parsnips. A similar reason to the above, but a roasted one was once hidden in a tureen of roast potatoes. I spotted the lovely crispy "spud", popped it into my mouth, and wasn't happy.
* Dandelion and burdock. Okay, it's a drink rather than a food, but I still hate it. Once again, I was duped by one of my parents that it was actually coke, and being rather hot and thirsty, I knocked the glass of it back in one and found my mouth filled with what tasted suspiciously like a grow-bag.
* Fish that looks like fish. Now I don't mind fish, so long as it is skinless and boneless and cooked in breadcrumbs or batter, but when your plate features a fish, complete with eyes and face and all that, it's just not right.
