    I made butter bean humus last night - there were a few tins of them in the cupboard and theyre a waste of space as I dont like them so take up valuble room. The humus was ok but Im not converted.

    I hate spinach with a passion - absolutley disgusting, Id rather lick moss offa rock

    Offal....yok...dont even want to think about it/them

    Duck eggs curl my stomach for some reason even though I love hen eggs :confused:

    Snails - I cant even write about them without wanting to throw up

    Vodka - the smell of it makes me ill - not strictly a food I know, but its made the list anyway


    Oysters - let this be the last time they are mentioned please - just type O


    Monkfish - Ive never tasted it cos its just too ugly to eat. God makes things ugly for a reason and Im not questioning the big guy on this one.

    Bananas that have even one speckle of black. I like them under ripe and if they go over then I just wait til they are banana bread ripe.

    But most of all, the big crown goes to porridge. Everything about it I hate. Smell, sight, colour....it has not one redeeming feature for me. Except that I can make pancakes out of it and it no longer looks like pooridge. Gak.

    Loads more Im sure, but Ive revolted myself enough for now. So what do the food lovers hate? Im thinking about my last meal here too. Havent decided yet.

    I don't HATE any foods, but there are 3 that I dislike: apricots, kiwis and ginger. That's it.


    And Porridge is my all time favourite food. I could eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Often have too :)

    I haven't found a food yet that I dislike.

    Shark, god awful stuff.

    Celery is the devil vegetable. Even the smell of it makes my stomach curdle.

    I dislike raw parsley, so I especially hate the people in restaurants who scatter it as a garnish over everything. Bizarrely, I don't mind it once it's been cooked i.e. parsley sauce.

    Coleslaw :mad:

    Bananas - definitely the most disgusting food ever invented. Even the smell of banana makes me walk fast away from the source of the smell!

    Porridge. I can't even at the pot in the sink after porridge has been made in it. Ugh the bits of porridge floating around in the water make me feel sick.

    Actually, any sort of cereal in milk. All soggy and horrible. Milk, except in cooking and in hot chocolate.

    And mayonnaise. I hate it with a passion.

    And strawberries. And apple tart.

    i like nearly all food to some degree or another. the only thing that i can think of off the top of my head that i just don't like is...

    ...marmalade.

    maybe i've only ever had cheap, Chivers stuff, but it's fairly rotten. i'm a fairly adventurous eater, and up for trying anything, but marmalade, eugh.

    just thought of more - spam, pretty much any meat from a tin.

    You might want to reconsider. :)
    It is extremely unlikely that monkfish will ever be described as the most aesthetically pleasing fish in the sea. Also known as anglerfish, it has an extremely distinctive - perhaps even ferocious - appearance. Sadly, this fact alone often puts people off discovering just what a delicious eating experience monkfish can truly provide.

    http://www.squidoo.com/healthymonkfishrecipes

    MONK fish is undisputedly an ugly creature but you will sure love its taste once you try it.

    All parts of the monk fish, except for its lips lined with sharp teeth, can be turned into delicacies ranked among the most treasured at Japanese fine dining restaurants.
    Its skin appeals with chewy texture, its meat is tender and its liver is regarded so heavenly that it is touted the foie gras of the sea.

    Taken from google so I'm not sure. It looks like the non-slip rubber carpeting that you'd find on fishing boats.
