Interesting. I think I agree!
This pug lover has you marked.
Anyway, I knew someone back in university days who’d still snarfle back that Fun Dip crap.
In my experience, pugs are not insecure and obnoxiously yappy, so you’re off the hook. Peace!
Pekinese have always reminded me of overgrown centipedes.
Olives! I could live on black olives. I learned my grandfather worked in an Italian olive orchard before coming to the U.S. I wonder if it’s genetic.
Liver and onions. Heaven.
No tripe. Good grief who would eat that other than my wife’s family? Chews like rubber.
Calamari. Again my family and my wife’s. They all don’t know any better. At a restaurant, when deep fried calamari comes to the table, all I can see is deep fried assholes. They’re to gross for me even to mention. When I was younger, everyone raved about my mom’s calamari on Christmas Eve. Tentacles and all. Oiled and seasoned and cooked. Why would people eat that rubber, and swoon over it?
Peeps. Ok for decorations not too eat.
All the flavored Doritos chips in the vending machines at work. Once in a while I’ll get a bag and every time they taste like salt and chemicals and I vow never to get them again. Eventually I forget and try again.
All I can taste are deep fried rubber bands.
Yeah, there’s definitely a petrochemical note to the vile herb. The worst part of cilantro is that it reeks of stinkbugs! Another apt comparison is the stench of paperwhite narcissus blooms. Both scents have been proven to be present in cilantro to those who can smell them.
Cilantro’s taste is so overwhelming one nibble can ruin a dish. I always thought I didn’t like avocado. Turns out avocado is pretty good and it was cilantro ruining the guac that I didn’t like.
This. I absolutely, cannot stand the smell of boiled eggs. I can’t fathom how people can eat something that smells like farts. When my wife insists on boiling eggs, I turn on the vent and drop white vinegar in the pot to cut down on the stench.
I am also not a fan of fried eggs… they stink too. Not as bad as boiled, but still pretty ugh. On the other hand, I love making and eating scrambled eggs and omelettes.
My other dislikes are avocado, and I run for the hills when they bring out the guacamole.
Last… Offal is awful, y’all!
How do you feel about dippin’ eggs?
Hey alls goods, the groove is solid.
Interesting, yeah, they do waft up a bit boiled/fried, butt fartunately that hasn’t translated to the taste thing. Too much. The smell of vinegar getting boiled to clean out friers, though. Oh my.
In her later years mum would gross out her children and grandkids (and folks at adjacent tables) when, at restaurants, sometimes just scraping the topping off the pizza, crust bedamned, sitting there, scraped-out, probably immediately cold (not that consumuption had come to mind with that image or anything). And yes, gross-looking.
Also onion rings - her breaking away all the freaking batter to maow down on, and leaving this nice, gleaming, slithery pile o’onions for the waitstaff to gaze at and marvel.
Another thing that probably should be mentioned as a likely object of disdain is pickled herring. As I said before, I myself will eat almost anything that is not insectoid or reptilian, so I like it myself, but I’m sure many don’t. My favoured style is herring fillets in wine sauce, pickled with lots of sliced onion, and served with sour cream. I only buy it once in a while, but it’s very enjoyable in moderation.
If that’s not exotic enough for you, how about Swedish surströmming, an extremely stinky form of fermented herring?
From the linked article:
The cans bulge under the pressure of the fermented herring inside.
When she opens it, an aggressive smell jumps out of the can with a hiss.
That’s funny because I specifically bought this black Himalayan salt because vegans use it to add that eggy flavor to foods (e.g. tofu eggs) It tastes just like really salty boiled egg yolks. It’s entirely the sulfur that gives it the flavor–which is probably what you’re talking about.
I actually add it to scrambled egg whites, to make them taste more like regular eggs. I’ve had to severely decrease my fat intake due to digestion issues and GERD. It also can make noodles and no-fat mayo taste better.
My Mom loved boiled eggs for breakfast or lunch. She’d put them in an egg cup, knock the top off, and dip toast into them. My sister loved them too. Thankfully, Mom knew of my hatred of eggs, and so I grew to love tomato soup and cheese sandwiches for lunch. Good comfort food.
I have the same avoidance to eggs as you do, but for a different reason; I’m allergic to eggs. Makes eating breakfast out at a restaurant an adventure at times.
I prefer not eating a bar of soap, if that’s what you mean.
If it’s rubbery, it’s been cooked wrong or wasn’t even close to fresh. Now it’s true that 95% of restaurant calamari is exactly as you say: deep-fried rubber bands.
But the good stuff, when it can be found, is darn nice. That won’t be found at a national chain eatery though.

Peeps. Ok for decorations not too eat.
Marshmallows period. Only acceptable as a topping for yams and an additive to hot chocolate.
I am here to propose a theory. I believe that any food can be made mentally grody if you think about it deeply enough and from the proper angle. Consider what it might resemble - snot? vomitus? semen? diarrhea? Consider the very act of eating as you plonk it into your cakehole, consider what horrors are going on in your gob as you grind it, soak it in saliva, slide it around with your tongue, and then eject it down your gullet.
Whatever it is, it’s gross.
Carry on.
mmm
