I like food. Ienjoy buying it, preparing it and eating it. However there are some foods I will not eat. What follows is a list of foods I like and dislike. Why? Who can say the internet is a strange place.

Like: All seafood, Thai, Baked potatoes with cheese and beans, Fromage Frais, Bacon, Houmus, Veggie Burgers.

Dislike: Beef, Lamb, Celery, Pumpernickel Bread.

Thats my entire list of dislikes so I eat pretty much anything.

One of my absolute favorites is a big thick Tuna steak grilled very very lightly so its just warm but still raw. Served up with loads of green beans and fresh warm crusty white bread. Yum and Yum.

i wont eat:

onions
raw or rare meat
lamb
raw tomatos
squid
black pudding
haggis
Posted by ilovebeerme, 12:42, 6th February 2003:
 
Why not haggis? Is it the ich factor or just a nasty taste factor?
Posted by cal, 12:46, 6th February 2003:
 
both

Fair enough if you dont like it but the content is no worse than a McDonalds or your average sausage so......Oh no wait I see your point ;)
Posted by cal, 12:50, 6th February 2003:

macdonalds burgers (infact, most burgers)

tomatoes.
thats about it actually. I dont particuarly like sweets but I'll eat them occasionaly. I'll eat pretty much anything. I once ate a potatoe out of an ashtray but that was just to weird everyone out that was at the table.
Posted by Sul, 13:40, 6th February 2003:
 
oh parsnips too. ick!
Posted by chandler, 13:41, 6th February 2003:
 
"like milkshakes?"

Do they contain animal rennet? not that I drink them anyway. Doritos have it in.

I like mushrooms but my girlfriend sits and munches on them when their raw which troubles me somewhat.

Overcooked aubergines are nasty too. They go kinda snotty.

Chandler: apparently they do I think it's used as a thickening agent. Probably just Burger resaurant mega thick ones though. Normal milk and ice cream ones are ok.
Posted by chandler, 13:41, 6th February 2003:
 
yes and walkers cheese and onion crisps. Stupidly I can have Smokey Bacon walkers crisps but not Cheese and Onion.

Dissolved parecetamel/ vitamin c

Posted by ilovebeerme, 14:06, 6th February 2003:
 
I'd eat human flesh.
Posted by cal, 15:11, 6th February 2003:
 
not sure about human flesh. only if it was well cooked, obviously
Posted by arsepuppy, 15:12, 6th February 2003:
 
Tastes like pork apparently, according to a reliable source. Not chicken as is usually said.

You knew Jeffrey Dahmer?
Posted by MonkeyArmada, 15:34, 6th February 2003:

Posted by msmissy, 15:58, 6th February 2003:
 
When I was at University Jeffrey Dahmer lived in the next neighborhood... he was caught my first year.

Anyway - I don't eat:
onions
pork (I said it, too)
herring
lutefisk
veal
kraut
Posted by Victor Menendez, 16:15, 6th February 2003:
 
You don't eat Kraut's?
Posted by msmissy, 16:20, 6th February 2003:
 
I am half-kraut, actually, so that would be a bad move... one whole side of the family would have to watch their backs at Christmas.

I don't eat krauts or sauerkraut...

Posted by ilovebeerme, 16:27, 6th February 2003:
 
Good point missy I don't eat veal either or foie gras for that matter.

Posted by msmissy, 16:38, 6th February 2003:
 
I do eat meat, but try to eat the only the free-range chicken and corn-fed cattle, etc...
Posted by arsepuppy, 17:01, 6th February 2003:
 
I refuse to swallow the theory that Inspector Gadget was a superior detective than Scooby Doo.

He relied on Penny and Brain for a start, the charlatan.

At least Scooby solved his own mysteries, regardless of the fact he was shit scared of everything and had a severe speech impediment....
Posted by November Eclectica, 17:09, 6th February 2003:
 
I won't eat raw fish, yogurt.

Anything else, I am willing to try once.

Yes, I have tried Sushi and Yogurt and didn't like either one.

Mushrooms
Curry or anything remotely hot
meat (especially veal/foie gras/brains/kidneys/liver/tripe and all the bits that are well grotty)
Trifle

Posted by zxenor, 01:21, 7th February 2003:
 
i eat quite a bit of food, but i mainly avoid eggs (they taste like sulfur! ewww!)

but one thing i will chew, taste, eat, but NOT swallow is: MINT. i HATE having to swallow mint. it just doesn't feel right. you can suck a mint, or mouthwash mint, but swallowing feels unnatural for some reason

I was wondering when this topic would come around to Blow Jobs, didn't think it would be grim first though.
