what foods will you not eat

[wolf13]

organ meat
peppers and celery (ok in very small doses in things, but no chunks, same with celery)
mayo based sauces, I can't a lot of stuff with mayo in it (potatoe salad etc) but i do like a few things like deviled eggs or mayo on a sandwhich.
Iceberg lettuce, can't stand the bitter crunchy stuff, but the tender green stuff is ok.


oh, and i agree about mcdonalds, I usually end up eating it once a year, but i go out of my way to avoid it.

no meat - beef, pork, chicken, turkey, fish, etc. None. Zip. Zilch. Zero.

fungi--you are missing out!! Beef tongue is delicious!!! It's peeled...by the time it is prepared it doesn't have the creepy "I'm a tongue" look anymore.

no brains for me. ickums.

I have eaten "sweetbreads" or thymus gland from young cattle. Tasted like fried oysters, but I have a problem getting past the gland thing.

 

[legendaryfrog]

there are of course a bunch of nasty foods I wouldnt eat, but out of the "regular" foods, I cant tolerate

-most seafood
-lamb
-cauliflower
-and peas

I cant believe mushrooms have such a brad rep on this site. I LOVE THEM!!

I had no idea so many folks didn't eat seafood..Funny how you just assume things... Just curious, for those who don't eat it, was it in your diet at all when you were being raised? Maybe I only like it cause everybody here eats it...having steamed crab was always a big social thing for the family. When you were too little to pick crabs you would hang around someone who let their meat pile build up in their bowl, so you could get some freebies! Yummy!!

Course I still don't think I would like mountain oysters, no matter how many times they might have been on a childhood plate.

What d'y'all think?

 

[magakitty]

peppers, mushrooms, swiss cheese, olives, celery, oysters, sardines, sushi and sushimi, pigs feet or knuckles, tongue, chicken liver or heart, beef heart, kidneys, cucumbers.....

I'd like to say you're missing out on brain, but you're not... it's cold, wet and salty and it's got huge veins... maybe I'll give tongue a shot, maybe when it no longer looks like tongue it may taste better, as you suggest

I love seafood! Especially crab... also, what are mountain oysters?

 

[wataugachicken]

mountain oysters are bull testicles.

 

[shoreliner]

oh gross, brain sounds disgusting. bleck!!!

Mountain oysters are fried critter testicles. Like when you cut the young males (esp lambs), you save and fry the pieces. I * just * can't * do it.

 

[wataugachicken]

yeah, that's true - i was being safe in saying "bull testicles" but it could really be anything - sheep, deer, elk. . . . . actually, it might be an ideal food for vegetarians - the animal doesn't have to die for you to *enjoy* those rocky mountain oysters.
