Other nasty + nice things...
I've already ranted on about cheese (see posts passim), which is still out in front as far as disgusting foods go. It is the Michael Schumaker of disgusting foods - it's obvious that it'll win, but just how far in front of the others will it get?

But also, after reading this thread, I must add:

Celery - people says it's tasteless, but it's not. Its taste is so strong I can tell if something has been next to it in the fridge. Oh, and it's not negative in calories - that's an urban myth.

Bread and butter pudding - slimy goop.

Just to set the record straight about some lovely stuff that other people inexplicably have nominated (obviously due to some temporary mental aberration):

Mushrooms - the only thing that would be great about being vegetarian is that you get to eat more mushrooms. Here's a quick snack suggestion. Slice half a dozen mushrooms into a mug. Microwave for 90 seconds. Drain, slap between two slices of buttered bread. Devour.

Sweetcorn - my wife berates me for asking for sweetcorn with every meal.

Rice - lovely. As a student, often had a bowl of rice+sweetcorn as a meal.

Sprouts - super stuff. I always liked sprouts, even as a kid, but you mustn't overcook them.
