What Popular Food Do You Hate?

I love just about anything vegetable and vegetable soup is my ‘go to’ comfort food, but I cannot stomach butternut squash under any circumstances. It really surprised me that I hated it the first time I tried a butternut squash soup, and it seems to be everywhere these days!

My sister-in-law tried to fool me by not telling me it was in a vegetable soup she made, but my stomach knew. It came back up faster than it went down. My sister-in-law is a very good cook btw so there was nothing intrinsically wrong with the soup.

Any fellow sufferers?

Kentucky fried chicken. Ugh!
Camembert... love it but it stinks the fridge out for days.
Kidneys...
Pizza.. so over-rated.
Pickled peppers.
Pollenta pie.

Back in the 1960's, when we were young, hubbie and me bought an Avocado. Had not idea what to do with it. Just made us feel very upmarket. Cut it open, tried to eat it, hated it, gave some to the cat, who turned her nose up at it.
Have never eaten one since.
Probably am missing out on something!!!

Lots here I positively love and regularly buy and cook, particularly offal,so for me it's cakes, biscuits and yes, even chocolate. Just don't have a sweet tooth.
