Is there stuff you won't eat or touch? For me it's:
Brussle Sprouts Squash Water Chestnuts Potato salad (mayonaise and potato is just wrong IMO) Lentl soup

The only thing that I won't eat, or even taste, would be those disgusting foods that Andrew Zimmern tries on the Travel channel. I am open to trying anything once. I thought that I would not like venison, but two years ago had some great marinated venison steaks. I guess you just have to know how to cook it cuz it is so lean. I've had bison too- the steaks were really tasty and lean.

I use to hate brussel sprouts, now I really like them.
I love cooked cabbage too. Has anyone ever eaten Huluski? It's cooked cabbage/onion and butter and Huluski noodles. You can add a little bit of ham to it too. Yum.
I actually eat much more stuff than I use to.
I hate cooked/canned spinach- but I love loose leaf spinach.
I hate raw tomatoes.
I'd never eat deer meat...even if someone paid me.
Riptide-I love potato salad and water chestnuts (they barely have any flavor)
I hate mushrooms-they are just icky and slimy.
My favorite vegetables are: broccoli, cauliflower, sugar snap peas, green beans, and asparagus.
I don't like any kind of seafood. I have never tried Salmon. I know people that love sardines and pickled herring-I think I'd throw up if I had to eat either of those things.
I eat very little meat.
I don't know if you can call this a food...but I hate coffee. I love the smell of it, but can't stand the taste of it.
I don't like olives of any kind.
It's not a food-but I hate the taste and smell of any kind of beer.
I don't like fried eggs.
There are certain fruits I have never tried and I want to...but I never can find them anywhere...
I never tried a pomagrante or a passion fruit.
I hate canned corn.
I like my vegetables fresh or frozen-not in a can.
I hate Hamburger Helper- and so does my husband...I don't like pre packaged food at all. The only thing I eat from a box- is Kraft spaghetti and Kraft Mac and Cheese.
I hate those Ramen Noodles-they are so gross...I don't know how people can eat them by the bucket loads.
I hate most fast food.

Wow some startling revelations here. Isis, surprised you don't like seafood, nothing better than rice and a salmon steak. Smoked salmon, cream cheese and bagels go great together too.
Stuff like Ramen/Hamburger Helper is kind of like starving student food. I used to eat Ramen and Mr. Noodles but stopped after someone told me about MSG in it.
Other stuff I don't like:
Egg salad and sandwiches Tuna(smells and probably tasted the same as cat food)Noth that I know what cat food tastes like! Tapioca pudding Raisin Bread Fruit Cake Canned Spaghetti Ketchup and Relish Liver and Onionsa(tasted rancid the only time I tried it) Macaroni and Cheese Pogos

Riptide-I love most those things you hate. Especially Tapioca pudding. I make it all the time-I love mixing strawberry preserves in with it. I love really good rice pudding with raisins and some cinnamon sugar on it. Yum-that's like one of my favorite things.
I love Raisin Bread. I make a Raisin Strata for breakfast- it's like a Raisin Bread pudding-it has maple syrup in it-it's good.
Riptide-Macaroni and Cheese is like my all favorite thing-I could eat it every day. The only frozen food I like is Stouffer's Mac and Cheese.
I am making egg salad for my party this coming weekend.
I love prunes too-they make orange flavored ones-those are good (just don't eat too many).
I love cauliflower- raw or cooked. It's my favorite raw vegetable for dipping. I can just cut up cauliflower for lunch and dip it in Marzetti's ranch dip.
I really like Litehouse Jalapeno Ranch salad dressing.
I like tuna sandwiches too.
I use to LOVE Chef Boyardee Spaghetti and Meatballs-but I never eat that. I do still eat Beefaroni every once and awhile.
I never tried Salmon...so I don't really know if I would like it.
I kind of like stuff with a smokey flavor (allthough I think it isn't a good thing to eat).
I made potatoes for some guests a few weeks ago-and I used smoked gouda cheese-it was really good.
I love scrambled eggs- just not fried eggs.
Today I made Oreida Hashbrowns that had red and green peppers and onions in them- for part of breakfast for some guests- they were good, and they were red and green for Christmas.
You know some years ago...on here...me and Bionic Bigfoot found a Moon Pie website and I ordered he and I some moon pies- because I remember him talking about them, and I thought I liked them, and they had banana moon pies...I thought those would be awesome-but they tasted like cardboard. It was a sad disappointment.
I like Ketchup on French Fries- but usually I put vinegar or sour cream on french fries.
I hardly eat hamburgers...but if I do...I like to make them like this place from my hometown...they took the hamburger and chopped it up and cooked it on a grill-like making sloppy joes- and then they put the hamburger in a hot dog buns...I always got mustard and onions on mine...they would wrap them in waxed paper-and they steamed them- and they were really soft- that's the way I liked them.
I remember I use to love steak and onion sandwiches when I was a teenager-I haven't had one of those in years.
My friend is bringing me a fruit cake recipe in the morning....I think it has a ton of rum in it ...I never made one...my mom wants to try it.
Does anyone like Divinity and Peanut Brittle?

I forgot to add calamari. I love it and all seafood except for clams, mussels, and oysters.....

Calamari, hell yeah. I really love Greek cooking.
Reading Isis's post, maybe I am a fussy eater. But i have come along way the past 5 years. I like food from different cultures more than I ever did.

I put mustard on almost everything....pork, beef, chicken, turkey, fish, all styles of potatoes. I'm weird like that.

There is a Chinese/Vietnamese restuarant in Melbourne that we go to sometimes, it serves a drink called "3 colour drink". It consists of coconut milk, green jelly and kidney beans. I have to admit it's suprisingly nice!

Brussel Sprouts. When I was six, my mother told me I would grow into them (like they were a pair of my elder brother's old shoes - that might be where the taste comes from)
Shellfish - not down to any particular reason other than allergies. That and the fact that raw, they look like Snails Of The Sea....
"Ethnic" food - if you've got to serve it on a fancy plate, with some luminous sauce, and call it by a foreign name, then I reserve the right to NOT eat any part of any animal whose origin I can't immediatly verify.
Will eat:
Liver - but only if I cook it myself, or I see it cooked right before consuming. It shouldn't bake to the consistency of shoe leather before adding the onions.....
Bacon - the one food that guarantees that I will never be a vegetarian.

I like oysters, but, and I know this is gonna sound weird, I cannot look at the inside of the oyster when I'm eating it. It also has to be fried good and brown.

Other stuff I don't like is parmagean cheese(smells like stinky feet!)
Also was never a huge jam/marmalade fan and putting stuff on toast other than butter. Never could get around those banana and peanut butter sandwiches either.
