What food do you hate the most? And why? Do brussel sprouts make you hurl? Can't stand the pea? Think baked-beans are the work of satan? Tell us, and tell us now.

This question is now closed.

I had it as Wong Kei (China town London), the notoriously rude restaurant. it was fucking cold, under cooked with the grey skin still on it with the layer of fat, the pork was un chewable.
I complained and said I think something is wrong with it and the guy said it was fine!!!
EWWWW!!!
Oh, and all you people going "Eww, veg & Fruit!" I bet your parents spoilt you and fed you chocolate for tea. stop being babies, you'll die of fatness before your 40.
*apart from cumcumbers/ celary, perfectly understandable.

Marzipan -why? It is vile and rank and sickly
Liver - enough said
Coriander - What IS this obsession with TV chefs putting whole bloody plants of it in food? It tastes of mould and it makes me heave.
Olives - salty slimy nastiness - I don't care how trendy it is , I won't eat it!
Beetroot - have you ever smelt this stuff cooking?
Anything 'phlegmy' - think porridge, semolina, tapioca and that slimy crud in pork pies.
And courgettes *gag*

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.

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.

...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.

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.
/edit
And I hate coriander, soapy herb of the devil

Poisonous, sickly sweet, toxic-waste excuse for a fucking beverage.
CLUE: Re-arrange the letters in the name. It's an anagram of vomit. The bastards who make this must have known and are just taking the piss.

"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.

- 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 tastes like sweet potato"....my arse!
It almost spoiled a good Xmas dinner, that did.
Also:-
Cheap Pasties where you can taste the burnt meat in them.
Cheap Pork Pies, loving that gristle!
Off Milk - i'm always wary of milk that's been in the fridge for a few days...

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.

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.

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

Ooh... and to art101 - Durians are totally mank - I love the way they smell like a rubbish bag on bin day - tasty....

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....

wouldn't wipe my arse with anything from there. And how can something smell so foul, damp and sickeningly, discustingly sweet. bleaugh.

I've only seen one or two people mention this godawful crap.
it's the stuff they scrape off beer fermentors when they haven't been cleaned for weeks for christs sake. How can anyone eat a brewerys yeast infection! ack!
Gagging whilst writing this, It's horrible.

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.

It's a shellfish, looks like wobbly tummy-tuck waste and tastes like snot. Avoid. BTW, I can't believe how fussy you guys are, tomatoes? Pickles? Mushrooms? Jeez...think yourself lucky you've got a choice!
( , Tue 13 Jul 2004, 10:19, Reply)

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
( , Tue 13 Jul 2004, 10:18, Reply)

you know the ones like plain snack-o-jacks.
Smells like stale piss, and has the consistency of polystyrene. My mum loves em, she once opened a packet in the kitchen and i smelt them in my bedroom (when i lived at home)
Nearly made me gip
