This is a question World's Most Hated Food

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.

Where
to start?

Aubergines - like some sort of evil, fleshy, savoury banana. These physically repel me on just about every level, be it appearance, texture, smell or taste; if they made a noise, chances are that would make me feel ill too. They have an added personal horror because a few years back someone I worked for invited me for dinner at his place with an author whose work I had idolised since my teens, and they served a largely aubergine-based main course which I had to literally choke down.
Cucumber - foul. See also courgettes and let's face it, cucurbits in general.
Tomatoes - ghastly damp things with those hideous, hideous seeds that looks like the excrement of some huge insect. All right when cooked and largely unrecognisable. Tinned ones are the worst, since they have that unsettling tumorous look about them.
Lettuce - pointless yet nasty, making it the wasp of the vegetable kingdom.
Mayonnaise - the devil's own spunk. The worst thing about this is its omnipresence, yet to the best of my knowledge, nobody has ever complained that a sandwich doesn't have mayonnaise in it, but try finding one that doesn't. Also vinaigrette, mustard, etc.

And despite this bizarre squeamishness about salad dressings and a whole range of essentially harmless vegetables, I will eat almost anything that comes out of an animal except shit.

/edit - and since sprouts seem to be wildly unpopular, they are teh absolute woo in a stir fry. Really.
