1.Overcooked pasta, I cannot eat it, period.
2.Almost every canned food (other than San Marzano tomatoes): after being immersed in a liquid, full of preservatives environment for God knows how long, nothing is tasty.
3.Food swimming in sauce, am I supposed to taste the food or the sauce?
4.Fake mayonnaise. Real, pure mayonnaise is a wonderful, delicate thing, but that fake thing is horrendous!
5.Any kind of viscera.
6.Anything one adds water to, microwaves, and it is ready in less than 10 minutes!
7.Flavored stuff in general: if I want strawberry milk, I buy milk and strawberries. Separately.
8.Anything that says "-free". If it is fat free, the manufacturer will likely compensate it with loads of sugar, or vice-versa. Lose-lose situation, at least for me.
9.Anything minced. God knows what kind of meat/chicken/fish ended up on those nuggets.
10.Anything loaded (heavily!) with sodium. I love salt and have to make smart choices when it comes to high sodium intake, so I prefer to have salty stuff I can easily spot and love (e.g. prosciutto) than food that has a ton of sodium and I am absolutely unaware of.
Fat free, fat reduced, all the same and you are right: take out the fat and/or salt add the damn sugar. Let me have the real stuff. If I need to have smaller portions, that is fine, just don't take my flavor. You and I seem to share many of the same tastes.

My husband says the same thing about beans. If they taste like dirt why does he ask me to make my baked beans all the time? I guess if you add bacon, onions, brown sugar, BBQ sauce, and a few other ingredients they don't taste like dirt anymore.
I can't stand stuff like canteloupe and honeydew. It's spit-it-out bad to me. When a restaurant uses it for garnish, I have to remove it from my plate, because just smelling it makes the rest of my food taste bad to me. It looks delicious - beautiful colors - but tastes nasty!

I suspect a liberal application of bacon, onions, brown sugar & BBQ sauce would make even dirt taste good
I also agree with the canned fish. If I wanted to eat something that smelled and looked like cat food, I'd eat cat food.
My other "will not eat" foods:
Organs of any kind
Eggs
Most vegetables (easier to list the ones I DO eat which is: lettuce, parsnips, potatoes and though technically a fruit, cucumbers - I'll also eat zucchini though I don't love it)
Bottom feeders/shellfish
Lamb
Anything spicy
Wow, how could you come up with a list of all of my favorite foods. Wiver......I luv Wiver. Lamb........wow, them juicy goat-type animals are great so many ways. I love veggies a lot better than fruit. And Eggly-Wegglies......them little, round, animal-type edibles.....one of my favorites.
amazing how diffferent our taste buds are: I love eggs, all cheese and canned tuna (if it is good quality) and Mayo is my staple for so much.
Foods that I just can hardly eat or maybe not at all:
tongue
okra (I am trying)
homony but I don't mind grits.
sugar in cold slaw
tripe (I guess all organ foods except chicken and turkey livers)
Miracle whip (spelling)
Mincemeat
I love tongue, it is one of my favorites, just too expensive nowadays. I hate mayo. Love organ meats........wiver, yummo.
Peas-they turn to green mush. EW
Brusselsprouts-they just taste awful!
smelly fish-I can't have any weird fish smells in the home.
Sour Kraut-Now I've heard that my family history as some German in it, however that German did not reach my genes. Good god does it stink and taste terrible. The Sausages though? MMM love me those sausages.
Having had a cast iron stomach for many moons, I can eat lots of stuff people dislike that has been listed here. Only one thing I could not, would not, cannot, or will not ever eat. That is squash.

Oh yeah, you mean the little baby-pigeon type bird??? I thought they were a delicacy???
