Topic of the Week #3: What Food Makes You Cringe?

[FreeOnes_Adam]

It's that time of the week again, and this Thread Thursday plays off last week's topic which was What's Your Favourite Food?

This time, let's go opposite. We heard what you like, now it's time to hear what you hate!


What's your most disliked food?

 

[sean miguel]

Chitlins. I've never had it but it's the concept.

At least with hot dogs I have to guess what it's made of.

 

[assari]

Mämmi

 

[Supafly]

Worms, etc. Yuk

 

[BlinkAgain]

Insects. I really don't want to eat creepy-crawlies. Insects should be part of a sustainable diet in future, says report (The Guardian)? Yeah, no thanks; I'll pass.

Balut

 

[sean miguel]

^that too

 

[Scancunt42]

there's too many to name

olives :throwup:

There's a lot of them. I'd probably put eggs top of the list because there are plenty I can stomach the smell of as long as they don't go into my mouth, but cooking eggs guarantees I can't be in the room. I will vom.

Have you ever had them? Before I die I'm sure I'll be coaxed into eating one. I hope I have a lot of liquor in me when that happens. My mother-in-law gets them off a Filipino Food truck then eats them in front of me with a big smile. Makes me feel queasy watching this.

Feta, Pho, KFC, In-N-Out monkey sauce, Pizza Hut, sushi, my Mother's cooking.

 

[D-rock]

Fruitcake

Pecan pie

Peeps marshmallow candy. I don't know how anybody can stand those. Their best use it to wait until they harden and then use them as ammo during a food fight.

Potato soup or any food made with potatoes that doesn't come with a lot of something else. Potatoes have a lot of uses, but are only good as a vehicle for other flavors like fat and salt or at least something else besides potato flavor.

Okra, if you eat that you might as well be eating slightly vegetable tasting slime.

Prune juice.

No, but I've seen one opened up and nearly hurled. Gotdamnit, why can't people eat normal food?

When I was a kid in the philippines, I remember balut vendors coming around the neighborhood regularly. I still shudder at that.

Yeah because pecan pie is just so fucking horrible. Maybe you don't like it, but cringe worthy?

Pecan pie?

Seriously?


Christ.

I like pies that actually taste like what they are supposed to be made out of instead of sugary goop made to look like actual food. Maybe I've just been unlucky and nothing but bad ones in my life, but it didn't have a good showing for me.



Now that I think about it also add mincemeat pie the list, as it's even worse than pecan pie.

 

[Jack Davenport]

Agree with mince meat.

I used to date a gal that had a fear of tomatoes. I got a bag of burgers one time and forgot to hold the tomatoes on hers. Her eyes bulged and she was petrified when she lifted up the bun and saw a slice of tomato. I picked up the frightening tomato and ate it right before her eyes like my mother-in-law eating balut to an even more nauseating reception. She still couldn't eat the burger because the tomato goop was still on the cheese even refusing after I scraped it off with a knife. Oh well, 2 cheeseburgers for me and none for her.

I'm still trying to get past Pecan Pie being on someone's cringe list. Unhealthy, sure, but cringe, lol. Anyway, my wife loves fried chicken and she orders that shit so much that I would rather eat balut, or Klingon gagh.

Whipped cream on that pecan pie too.

xfire is an example of a poster elevating himself on a message forum over time.

I grown to respect him. Not like me who slowly deteriorates to a bitter partisan that needs a drool cup to post.
