Meat. But I've been a vegetarian since 1990.
Also mayo mixed salads such as egg or potato salad....and casseroles, never had a green bean or tuna casserole but seems pretty odd to me. But I did not grow up eating American food so items like that are foreign to me!
Ambrosia (salad with marshmallows) is actually quite popular, especially in the deep south. And I've never heard of a jello salad, but my mother does make a mean jello mold.
As for what makes me say "yuck," there are lots of things since I'm a picky eater... worst offenders are pickles, fish (seafood of any kind), olives, coconut, bananas, pork, pistachio nuts, and relish. Blech to all of those!
Moosie and Gizmo, I've definitely heard of jello salad! I don't like it though. I thought they were things of the past until I moved from the left coast to Texas. A coworker brought an opaque green jello molded salad in.. not sure what was in it, but you were supposed to eat it on a lettuce leaf with mayonnaise and it was savory not sweet. Couldn't bring myself to try that one.
A very popular one around here that I have tried but don't like has strawberry jello, crushed pretzels, and coolwhip.

Speaking of jelled salads... hehehe. Pig head meat and gelatin, yummy! Have to admit I've not gone out of my way to try this one either. I would if it was in front of me.
