Does anyone have anything they don't like eating for no logical reason?
Just thinking I know people who won't eat:

Chips that are from the outer bit of the potato, ie not straight.

The bit of boiled egg in the lid you cut off with a knife (Made her feel sick)

The yoghurt on the underside of the lid.

bacon whose rind still has hair attached

That reminds me,
I once had a pork scratching which had the pig's brand on it. It was strange.

Mushrooms
but there is a logical reason.

The devil scrapes them from his evil fetid arsehole.

this
my main defense for not eating them (other than the fact that they are thoroughly disgusting) is that even our dog (who will eat almost anything) won't touch them.
even if they are chopped up small in leftovers, he'll leave them behind.

they aren't supposed to be eaten.

They are lovely in soup or a sauce.

Agreed.
There is something inherently wrong about teh mushrooms.

mushrooms
are quite lovely and the right kind are quite spacey

Maggots also grow on dead things

I don't like that, but would eat it
if there were no other butter.

I'm thinking about it, and coming to the conclusion I'll eat pretty much anything. Apart from fennel.

Fennel is good for indigestion

One o fmy friends refuses to eat steak
unless it is literally a case of "Wipe its arse and cut its face off, then put it on my plate", she won't touch it at all if its too cooked...

that's just common sense
it's fucking offensive to take a high quality piece of beef and then to cook it to destroy all its lovely flavourness.

*sigh*
"Wipe its arse and cut its face off, then put it on my plate"

Note the speech marks, and the fact it's referring to a phrase that is a well known description of rare meat. So using 'literally' is for effect, exaggerating the meaning. In the same way people use hyperbole.
Or metaphors for that matter.

But more so, fuck off with your pissy elitism.
Language is not a science, you can bend it to convey meaning as you wish. Poetry, for example.

there's a lot of poo in the sea

There's a lot of nasty stuff in the air as well, though.
