Liver - the smell, the texture, etc. - Yuck! Breakfast sausage links and patties - worked in restaurants for years and smelled that every morning - can't stand it.

Anne,
I second all of the above plus cold cured smoked salmon. I ordered a smoked salmon sandwich from room service at a ritzy hotel in Edinburghonce...it sounded so good. I told my daughter I thought it had a rotten tomato on it or something. When I tore it apart it was the salmon. Slimey!
Actually I don't like meat much at all.

ditto on the bananas. i can eat banana bread but fresh bananas make me gag. the person i live with eats one or two per day and leaves the peels on the counter for hours  (i think it's passive aggressive behavior) the other one is raw or undercooked onions unless they are scallions. i am weird...
also beef and pork (i love cows and pigs too much)and most kinds of fast foods - food that is so tasteless and devoid of nutrition that i don't see the point in eating it.
oh and runny undercooked eggs. no fried or soft boiled. i upchucked a fried egg when i was 4 and have never again touched any egg that had any part that was runny. i routinely send back my eggs in resturants to be nuked or i order them "burned". |

This is one of the funnier (and fun) threads I've read. I can't eat raw oysters.... and don't want any cooked, either. It's the texture. I grew up hating eggs (texture again), and my husband used to have a reaction to eggs unless they were fully cooked, so we basically had no eggs for years. Then, voila--one day I cooked them, and liked them--and his reaction had ended. They're a weekend breakfast feature, now.
I admit to having cooked some kidneys, and Jenny--ewwww is right! My English MIL made beef and kidney stew, so DH wanted me to do the same. Once was enough. The whole house stunk. I confess to liking liver and onions, but as DH does not, I don't ever eat it... which may be just as well.
I hated the taste of milk all of my life until a few years ago when I bought organic. What a difference that made. Now goat's milk is another problem. As a small child visiting a farm family, I was served grapenuts cereal with goat's milk...yuck. Very strong smell and taste. Not eating what was served as a guest was out of the question.... but I still have trouble with goat cheese, and have never, ever eaten grapenuts cereal since.
