zha cai (duck egg) with vegetables very bitter and salty its a chinese pot dish in singapore, its like when you are really really hungry and everything is closed.
fyi somebody reped me anonymously asked if i was huck. huck is how i sign my rep notes, ---if i rep you its huck-- my full name is huckleberry3911948 but i call myself huck for short..
Anything that can be slimy: okra, bananas, papaya, cooked spinach. I like all of those things as ingredients in something else, or prepared in very specific kinds of ways, only.
Sour cream and cottage cheese are frightening. I am mildly lactose intolerant, and a major pet peeve of mine is hidden dairy ingredients in things that do not need it.
I only do fresh/scratch pasta sauce. The stuff in jars has lots of sugar (why?), which murders the flavor of the tomato and spices. Yet again, it should not be in there, and if it is, I wouldn't consider spending money on it.
I have never eaten scallops, crab legs, sardines. Have only had lobster once and haven't eaten shrimp in about 30 years. I have an aversion to shellfish. Just don't like it. I eat fish, but only sushi or really, really just caught fish - but not often.
Freshly caught sardines are great. I love it when sardine season opens here in California because all the seafood restaurants start offering dirt cheap but delicious sardines seem to be on every appetizer menu. They are actually larger then you think (about 0.5 lbs), put them on skewers, grill them over mesquite coals stuffed with freshly cut dill, squeeze a bit of fresh lemon juice on them and enjoy. They're great especially with some slices of crusty farm house bread and freshly turned butter.
But you said you won't eat crab or shrimp so I have to conclude you're either death allergic or just afraid to step outside the boring food box. Either way, your lose.
For the record I'll eat just about anything once just to try it. Life is to short not too. Some of the more exotic stuff I've had were cow's eyeball tacos, grilled bat, slugs, fried grasshoppers, durian, grilled frog, fried scorpions, grilled monkey, fried calf's brains, chicken entrails, raw fish eyes, cow testicles... I could go on but I think you get the idea.

That's quite sad, in my humble opinion.
I could understand not liking a particular seafood critter, but primarily all of them?
Maybe you just haven't been introduced to it in a yummy dish? Traditional Chinese cooking of seafood is simply divine. Steamed fish *salivates*
