Hi there, Am I the only one who cant see the point in baby sweetcorn!!What possible use are they!
Tastless,hard or soggy & pointless if you ask me!!lol
What foods do you all hate (apart from ,dare i say it,sprouts!!) ;-)
merv

Sorry Merv, I love them, raw, steamed, stir-fried, or just bunged in whatever I am doing.

But it is good to see you posting again.

I too love baby sweetcorn and sprouts especially with chestnuts at xmas - can't see the point in bean sprouts

Ooooh, baby sweetcorn, bean sprouts, prawns, bok choi, peppers, etc., stir fried with some Thai spices, add hot stock and some coconut cream... serve with rice... mmmmm

Sorry Merv, just realised what the thread was actually about! I have recently discovered (in the past couple of weeks) that I loathe and detest Papaya - strange thing to discover but there you go. It tastes of sick to me...

sorry but everyone is going to hate me for this - fresh coriander! - its 'orrible! can cope with the dried seeds but not that nasty green stuff!

No, Jaybee, I agree totally, I just didn't like to say, cos people normally look at me as if I am mad.

But I really do not like tha taste of coriander at all, can't stand it, and the only other thing I really don't like is ginger beer ( with or without alcohol content )

You don't like fresh coriander? And people look at you as if you are mad? Ok then, here goes...

Oh ha ha!!!

Hey Rustie, you are a friend for life! you must be the only other person I have ever met who doesnt like coriander! (apart from my brother who lives in Taiwan!). And as for you Georgie - yah boo sucks to you! There are normal people out there after all! - just joking - if that yukky stuff is what does it for you then go for it you sad person!)

Hi Jaybee, we will just have to be a little club of our own......... lol

and it's ok Georgie, you can stop making faces now.

Yep Rustie - an anti-coriander club! Have to be honest, its one of the few things I dislike, but others are blue cheese (of ANY sort!), caraway, and marzipan!

Hi,yup'i dont like fresh corriander either,the seeds in a curry are ok,but the fresh stuff goes slimy!oh,& what i realllllllyyyy hate over here is when you go to a chippy & ask for "mushy peas" you get those horrid marrowfat peas!!!aaarrgghhhhhh.....[-)
oh Georgie,thanks for the wine reccomendation,replied on the topic & it posted 10 times!!

Well I can vouch for the fact that Georgie really doesn't like papaya but you have also found some new things you do like recently haven't you.

I don't like chocolate very much. I like almost everything else.

For me its anything tasting remotely of aniseed.

So no fennel thank you.Or aniseed type drinks like Pernod or Ouzo.

Well, you can add my mother to the anti-coriander club then - and I think you are all mad as it is the best herb out there IMHO!

Faces Rustie? Oh, you aint seen nothing yet....

:P :D :devilish:
:(

and I don't like sweet vegetables either...

Ok so you have put up lots of piccies of yourself, where are the funny ones?????


I just wish I could let more people know how I feel about Ginger Beer.........

Oh and Georgie, we don't watch football so we are watching Grease on ITV2,

it just got to the bit about the DEFECTIVE typewriter................

Eggs. I hate eggs!

Anyone remember the episode of Father Ted when Mrs Doyle wanted to know what he wanted in his sandwiches, and he went off on a rant about he wanted anything but egg, only to find out that the sandwiches where all egg sandwiches...? Well that Father Ted rant exactly summed up how I feel about eggs.

Baby sweetcorn... love it raw, I can eat them like crisps.

Lemon grass urghhh - I love any kind of spicy food but I have to search Thai menus to find dishes which don`t contain lemongrass. It seems to be in everything. Little woody bits that taste of washing up liquid!

I can't stand baby sweetcorn either. It doesn't taste like the larger version. In fact it has no taste at all. If I see it in a dish I always leave it. Even in stir fries it is a waste of space!
I agree that papaya smells like sick. It always looks attractine though.
I can't stand baked beans, the Heinz variety that is.I like all beans but it is the tomato sauce they cook them in that I can't stand.

I really dislike cheese. Am I very weird or just a bit?!!! Wish I liked it though - and shellfish too. I'd love to be able to enjoy a nice big juicy prawn or scallop.

I am joining the anti coriander club, YUK, tastes like stink bugs……………
Dont like coconut either, and as I am pregnant now I have gone off cooked vegetables! I am not keen on cheese either, sometimes its ok. And as for dill……… oooh and smoked salmon, its feels like it has slime all over it! And once I dipped into truffle oil thinking it must be heaven from peoples reactions and I was nearly sick! I could go on and I am not really a fussy person!!

My food hates: fish (I can just about tolerate tuna but that's all), mushrooms, cheesecake (which I haven't tried since I was little so I might like it now) and blue cheese.
Soft boiled eggs make me feel very peculiar but I don't mind actually handling eggs when separating the white from the yolk. Am I weird or what?

I can only eat cheese if it's cooked ie on toast or in a Quiche or Pizza. Even the feel of it when raw makes me feel ill.

As for Blue Cheese don't even go there!

Also I agree with Dorz what is the big fuss about Truffle anything. Ergh!!
Although chocolate truffles are ok obviously.
