I will not eat an over ripe banana, nor will I eat shrimp.

What's your food UN-fave?

Heatseeker, what about arachnids? (I had scorpion soup once)

I'll pass on scorpions. We encountered a couple in our beach house in Mexico. Nasty little buggers.

Same with crickets. They are fried and sold on the beach in Mexico. I tried one, and it was like eating shrimp shells.

I don't eat veal because it would make me sad. The taste of chicken livers and other organ meats are very off putting for me.

My son once ordered tendons in a restaurant. Gross!

No, I meant egg yolks. The taste of them has made me physically ill since I was a child. If I wanted to stay home from school I would visualize the look, taste and mouth feel of barely cooked egg yolks. It would make me actually gag and I got to stay home and read.

No liver or other innards! Eggs must be non runny and bananas not too ripe. I like my green beans cooked, not just heated up the way so many people make them these days.

Too many people think that undercooking vegetables is the way to go. I disagree most vehemently.

But I would kill for a lovely piece of calves liver...it is hard to find. (When it is pale beige it is delicious and young. WHen it is deep red, no matter WHAT they call it, it came from an old steer or worse, a dead milker (yecch.)

Eggs yolks that are a bright yellow. Free range eggs will be a orange/bright yellow. The inexpensive ones from Walmart aren’t free range. The hens are being fed something so consumers think they’re getting the fresh ones. I don’t want fresh or coloured. Gag.

Now I have to search for another store for pale eggs.

Most aversions to despised foods disappear when hunger raises its ugly head. Hunger is a wonderful appetizer.

My Grand-father served with the British army during WWI. On many occasions I remember him cracking an egg into a glass tumbler and then drinking it down, raw! I have always assumed that he did this as because being out in the field cooking facilities were unavailable and the soldiers ate the eggs raw.
He also used to make egg-nog from raw egg. He mixed raw egg with milk, sugar and vanilla. He used to make this for me and I always enjoyed the drink. However, I like to eat my eggs once over easy and detest them if the egg white isn't fully cooked.

I make this in my blender once in awhile, still around at age 72.
