Everyone has some food they don't like. I don't really care for Italian or Mexican. I think the flavor palate is boring and at times overwhelming and boring at the same time. There is not a rule that says you have to like every food you ever eat. The difference is that I will TRY just about anything without being a big baby about it. That's what's hard to respect - the part where they are a big baby about it. There is almost something immature, xenophobic, and provincial about the whole thing and that is very unattractive.
Frankly, I have met very few people who are adventurous anywhere else in their lives (except maybe sleeping around adventurous, if you want to call that adventurous) where that sense of adventure didn't permeate pretty much all aspects of their lives. Note that I said adventurous and not reckless.
Exactly. I like to eat a wide variety of food myself; my SO, on the other hand, has more simple taste in food. But - I've got to hand it to him - he will at least try different things. Some things he's liked, some things not, and that's cool. If there is something I want to eat that he doesn't, I can take myself out to lunch.
What I cannot tolerate, however is when people do any of the following:
People spitting out something, gagging, and making a big show of how "bad" the food they just tried was. It's food, not poison, and it's fine if someone doesn't like something, but at least be discreet.
People making disgusting comments about what I am eating. I don't care if someone thinks that a certain food looks like diarrhea, but I wish they would keep their comments to themselves.
But, I think that has less to do with food preferences than it does poor manners.

I agree, a lot of people seem to think if someone isn't their taste, they're ugly. I don't get all the fuss over Matthew McConaughey but I don't think he's ugly.
I will NEVER NEVER NEVER date another vegetarian no way no how
Chances are I wouldn't, either, but it's not because of the choice of food per se. It's just that they tend to have certain personalities that don't agree with me.
I wouldn't date either of them because they're both totally fugly.
Are you on dope, or dog food? I thought I covered everyone, when I said: "...OR WHOEVER YOUR HEART DESIRES".
