Picky Eaters
An old, old friend of mine will not eat/drink any hot liquid. Tea, coffee, soup etc do not pass his lips.
Which would be odd enough if he wasn't in the Army. He managed to survive a tour of duty in the Serbian mountains in winter without a brew.
Who's the pickiest eater you know? How annoying is it? Is it you?

Pineapple
I have only tried pineapple once, when I was about five years old we were served pineapple and custard one school dinner - a strange combination I know, but it was the 70s.
Unsure of what this delicacy was, I asked my neighbour. "Jellyfish", he replied.
"Ha ha", I thought, "that's unlikely".
Then I put a spoonful of the stuff into my mouth and it was prickly! My scepticism evaporated and I would not eat the rest despite much cajoling from the dinner ladies.
Still can't eat pineapple to this day. I eat most other things, the most unusal thing I've ever tried was cock's comb (the wobbly bit on top of a chicken's head) - tastes like bacon.
