Wow, that’s a first. Have you met anyone else like that? Is it all chocolate that he dislikes?
He occasionally eats Hershey miniatures (the semi-sweet kind), and he will eat chocolate cake and frosting. But he doesn’t like chocolate in a cookie. My hubby is a bit weird. I guess he’d have to be, to marry me.
I’ll say bread.
You can do anything with bread and I consider cookies a bread product.
Also I would think honey.
Can I nominate a meat product, please?
I know vegetarians who would never ever consider eating an animal again, yet cannot shake their craving for American style bacon.
When I lived in Sicily, it was the only American style food my landlord would ask me for.
And of course, for genuine carnivores like myself, it ranks pretty high.
There are many who won’t eat it, but few who do not like it.
American bacon. Good stuff.
Did you know that “Bac’n Bits” in the jar are vegetarian? Totally soy!
I also eat Morningstar Farms “Breakfast Strips” which are a soy based bacon-ish food.
I hate chocolate in every form except for white chocolate which isn’t really chocolate. I won’t eat candy bars or chocolate chip cookies. I never have liked it. When I was a kid I used to lie and say that I was allergic to it so that people wouldn’t think that I was a freak.
I have met two or three other people in my life who are also chocolate haters. It’s a rare thing.
I’m a veggie, and I agree with this. Someone on the Dope called bacon “the candy of meats.” I betcha there are kosher vegans who want to sneak bacon.
Bacon bacon bacon.
I know at least one person who dislikes chocolate, one who dislikes pizza, and one who dislikes rice and pasta.
I nominate ice cream.
Mr. Moto, you are now my eternal enemy for naming this first.
Dumplings. I’ve yet to find a ethnicity that doesn’t have some form of minced veggies and/or meat wrapped in a noodlish pod and boiled/steamed/fried.
Another vote for bread-like stuff.
Peanut butter?
I’m a vegetarian, and I hate peanut butter. The texature creeps me out.
How about drinks - Tea would have to be pretty high up there.
While it’s rare to find an American who hates peanut butter, lots of Euros claim to find it disgusting.
Ditto on the peanut buttter. I heard a French person qualify it as “disgusting.”
For all that I’m partial to bacon, a good part of the world can’t eat it on religious grounds, so no go. OP says as much, in fact.
As the OP mentioned, many people are deathly allergic to peanuts and anything made from them.
I’ve known only one person who absolutely refused to eat pizza. And he was Italian.
I bloody hate bacon. The smell of it drives me insane. I remember when college roommate used to make it I would open the windows and complain for hours.
In general I can’t stand the smell of cooked red meats-pork and beef is the worst…pork is by far the biggest offender. Lamb I’m not too keen on the smell but I’ll eat.
I’ll have to second pizza. I also think minced-meat-on-bread-product, whether you call it a katti roll or a gyro or a hamburger or anything else is almost universal.
Potatoes
Ok but we’re not talking about “this food is present in all ethnicities” we are talking about “almost all individual people I’ve ever met like this food”… I mean just about every ethnicity has some form of alcohol as well, but tons of people hate alcohol, so it wouldn’t make this list.
I have never even had dumplings, so I can’t say if I like them or not–just clarifying the point of the OP.
