Like Spazz, I now love and will only eat steak rare
The line I quote is from an otherwise deservedly obscure song: "I like my steak with a chance to get well."
As for a potluck, we're pretty easy to get along with. I won't be hurt if you bypass my green chili if you won't make a fuss when I ignore your banana blast. "Sides, after a good long bike ride, 'most anything becomes edible.

Most everything that came out of the water with the exception of canned tuna, fresh salmon, cod and tilapia and I barely deal with all but the first one.
Meat subjects with more or less than 4 legs and no baby ones.
Chicken. Turkey ok, chicken yucky.
Overly spicy dishes.
Sausages, except sometimes the breakfast kind that I use for biscuits and sausage gravy.
Bratwurst, etc.
Any animal's recognizable part ie:feet, tongue, tail etc.
The local delicacy-Brain Sandwiches. Super-barf.
I could go on ad nauseum but I'm already nauseous thinking about all this.
ick.
Jeez, food is a hot topic, yes?
I have a complete texture rating system, since I seem to have more of an issue with texture than flavor.
Class I: can't even put it in your mouth
Class II: it tastes good, but still is routinely passed by because the texture is just WRONG
Class III: it tastes good and the texture is not the best, but not so bad that you can't eat it.
Class IV: good texture and flavor
Typically I only refer to classes I and II and supplement the descriptions, calling them "Class I (or Class II) texture violation". Examples for me are Class I: whole (itty bitty) octopus; and Class II: raisins (yes, I'm with V on this one). For me, chicken is a class III.
This system was formulated on a long bird watching trip where we didn't get much sleep, drank a lot, and didn't shower for 5 days.
Second Runner Up in the '05 Weekend Warrior Princess Competition and durn proud of it!
What's this? :D
V.
I assume the first was required due to the latter? This must have been one long trip and how did you remember all the details of this scale when BWUI?Quote:

I was thinking more along the lines of things like snails, insects and spiders of all varieties, stuff like that. People'd be another example, being bipedal. Worms, snakes, monkeys.
There are some 4-legged things I won't touch either, like horses, dogs, cats, turtles, hamsters, etc. etc. but my list was getting long and my time short...
dare I ask?Quote:

What a funny topic!
I loved reading everyones' dislikes (and likes)
i like sushi!
i like peppers and tomatoes
but
i DON'T like rhubarb...and sardines, well, ew...
and turnip.
Pickled bologna (gag me, and the BF loves the sick stuff)
very ripe bananas
Brussel Sprouts - I can only get down three before I just can not eat!
Avacado
Curry
Hmmm I guess my list is pretty short, it prolly explains the extra gut I carry with me!
Here is my new list. I am trying very hard not to like Coke, Ice Cream and Chocolate. Those things make me hurt, but ohhh I love them. :(
Barb, your post just made me hungry for a chocolate ice cream, coke float. All the basic food groups in one glass, umm.
Jones
Brain Sammich's... now that I'd eat! Assuming its calf or lamb as grown up cow and sheeps brain have grown cynical and tough. But it is a bit richer than scrambled eggs...
I've had rattlesnake and gator meat.... tastes like chicken :D I make a damn fine gator tail chili!
I had lamb tonight at my roomies b'day celebration... though it was Morrocan, so I can't identify the sauce. It was on a bed of cous cous with goat cheese. YUMMY!
I'd have to agree on some of the other no-no's though:
tripe, pig knuckles, haggis, capers, any thing with dill (except I love dill pickles), sacerin, nutrasweet, passion fruit, yams, sweet potatoes (aren't they the same thing?), "stuffed" things (mushrooms, peppers, artichokes).
But heck, a potluck is a good idea. I'll just bring a tupperware full of sliced jalepenos and I'll be OK. Everything tastes better with some "hot" on it.
spazz-burnin' burnin'-dog
If your bologna is pickled does it have a different first name? :DQuote:
