Is there any food you do not like?

I hate anything that might taste like spoiled milk. That includes Mayonnaise, cottage cheese and spoiled milk. However, I can deal with yellow potato salad. I can't stand uncooked egg whites. Seeing it will ruin my entire breakfast and bring up a "lump" in my throat. To me, it's like looking at a wet bugger. I pretty much love anything chocolate but I like my ice cream natural. And I mean Real ice cream--Not the chemical gar gum and vegetable seaweed stuff.

I remember when I was a kid, I was with my dad at friends down the road and the guy gave me some buttermilk. I took one sip and got out of there. That is obviously why our buttermilk went to the hogs after making butter.

I don't like or eat tripe, or fried oysters anymore (with bellies) as I had a bad oyster one time - was like eating raw sewage.

Wife calls raw oysters elephant boogers.

I'm guessing it was grade two or three, when the school visited the dairy and everyone was offered a chocolate milk, I asked if I could have white. I do enjoy most other chocolate things.

When I was maybe 7, I remember bugging my mother to let me have chocolate milk. I'd seen other kids at school drinking it and wanted to try it myself. Finally she gave in. YUCCK!! Thought it was naaaasty! Never had it ever again.
Otherwise, chocolate is OK.

Brussel sprouts are gross boiled, but great roasted with bacon pieces, tossed in olive oil and drizzled with a little maple syrup. And no smell like boiled cabbage.

Until last year, I'd never even heard of roasting them. Had Thanksgiving at stepson's, and he'd made them that way. Thought they were really good. I'll sometimes put them in a stew too.

Beets, I hate the smell, the taste even more. As a kid I was forced to eat them once and promptly threw up my entire meal on my dinner plate. They never made me eat beets again.

For the most part, I'm neutral on beets. Wife likes them, so I'll plant a row in the garden. Nothing I'd choose to eat, but don't dislike them either.
My heritage is Russian, and my father loved borscht (which is a cold beet soup). My mother made it a few times for him. It's nasty. I guess my mother realized it wasn't to everyone's liking, so she told my siblings and me that we had to try it once, if we didn't like it we didn't have to eat it again. To the best of my knowledge, none of us ever did.

Chili's. My wife uses them for her spicy sauces. There's so much heat you can't taste anything else. It's hot for the sake of being hot.

And she hit the jackpot this weekend.

Thai peppers typically range from 50,000 to 100,000 Scoville Heat Units. Compare this to a typical jalapeno pepper, which ranges from 2,500 to 8,000 Scoville Heat Units, making the average Thai pepper about 15 times hotter than the average jalapeno.

I can see that the gloves stop the heat while processing them. LOL
I rubbed my eye once after cooking with them, never, ever again!

Soy.
Several years ago my wife made pancakes using soy flour. I ate a lot because they tasted good but after a while I felt strange. I looked in the mirror and didn't recognize myself my face was so swollen.
A nurse friend of ours said I could have had anaphylaxis and possibly died!
I think it's possible getting older a person can become allergic to things they weren't before.
Strange to me is wagyu beef. It's really expensive and loaded with fat. We've never had it, probably never will.
