Bananas - disgusting, they're not food
Avocado - Gross
Cauliflower - minging
Aubergine - I have found exactly 3 ways I like aubergine now, otherwise still rank.

Tried Natto the other day - really, truly horrible.

I like bananas, I don't like avocado but do like guacamole.

A lot of people dislike mushrooms so that's relatively normal too but celery, beans and peas are again on the far end of the weird scale to actively dislike, rather than just be ambivalent about.

Basically many of you seem to have the palate of a 6 year old. /thread

Nothing wrong with my palette, it's a textural thing with most of the things I don't like. Apart from bananas, I've never liked anything about them so it's probably tied to some childhood trauma .

I could probably train myself to like Avocado and Cauliflower, I only got a taste for mushrooms and tomatoes as an adult but why bother when there are plenty of foods I enjoy eating.

Natto is fermented soy beans, my missus is cooking at a Japanese restaurant now so I'm getting an education as she experiments.

The number of people who dislike cucumber always surprises me. It's one of my favourite things, along with celery.

Weirdly, I like almost all "salad veg" and normal veg raw, but not cooked.

How about white bread that your nannies mash up for you with a little milk? Are you lot able to keep that down?!

If you think that's bad, wait until you hear about how I eat my meals I have a long list of weird food rules.

Shut up mister "I don't like corned beef" it's a British staple

Do you use a plate and cutlery?

Depends what I'm eating, I guess.

What a bunch of fvcking oddballs. You sound like the kind of people that go abroad and have to seek out the place that does traditional roast dinners and fried breakfasts.

There's very little real food that I dislike or that i wont try.

Tea, Budweiser, Carling, fruit "cider", anything banana unless it's just an actual raw banana, and anything with artificial sweeteners in

You don't like tea? What sort of weirdo are you?!

The absolute worst thing about the time I went on holiday to Gran Canaria was the amount of trouble I had trying to find something to eat that wasn't a steak or a fried breakfast. All the fussy eaters should go there .

Criticise other peoples odd dislikes and then say you don't like tea

Oh, can we have an argument about tea and coffee.

I don't drink tea, I don't hate it but coffee is superior.

I don't like coffee but love tea and hot chocolate.

Bloke at work has never tried a hot drink which I think is very odd

How does not liking certain things equate to "only enjoys traditional meals"? I'll try anything once. If I don't like it, I won't eat it; if I do, I will. I'm not unadventurous, I just don't force myself to eat stuff I don't like.

No, you must. Have you considered coprophagia?

Does that come with chips?

If you have poor digestion it does.

Definitely comes with sweetcorn.
