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

What's your food UN-fave?

I do not like runny eggs either, always ask for them "easy over". Mincemeat i find intolerable as well, cannot stand the the taste or smell.

Sea food is dangerous in my opinion. Oysters and shrimp, and clams, due to most water is polluted except for NZ.

I had a short case of Hep A but peeing black and shitting white is scary stuff. I walked by a hot dog stand and threw up in the street from the greasy smell. Lost 30 pounds, couldn't hold down any food except 2 scrambled eggs each morning. I looked TERRIFIC at 174 pounds... except for the yellow eyes.
In my early 20s , I had a mild case that I got from a nurse who worked in the isolation ward of the city's main hospital, I've not trusted nurses since. I had the usual symptoms as well, but by the time I went to hospital I was on the mend so couldn't understand why they wanted to keep me there. As you say, the symptoms were scary while they lasted, but with me they didn't last very long, probably when a person is younger it is less severe.

I never have need to order eggs anymore, we are the egg pros.My method is "over light" to firm up the snot. With poached the technique depends on shake. When no perceptible jiggling around the yoke, the eggs are done.

I cannot stand UNDERRIPE bananas, or really ANY underripe fruit...they actually cause my stomach to ache almost immediately.

I cannot bear under-cooked broccoli so much so that with any Chinese order, we say "anything but broccoli." No Chinese restaurant knows how to steam broccoli properly.

You are right about broccoli. It's supposed to be tender not hard as a brick.

Somehow it's foisted off on us that it has to be raw or hard to be healthy.

That's nonsense.

Cooked carrots are healthier than raw ones. The good stuff is released.
