nvmichaelWhat food do you swear people only pretend to like?
Trader Joe's Cauliflower Gnocchi
It's supposed to be a top selling item.
Mushy No flavor
I think everyone's pretending
Vegan cheese
I know. I should not have tried it

Norman ConquestTofu anything! My ex, years ago got into that weird culture called vegetarianism + started to propound the virtues of same (I told you she was already crazy, right?) Meat + potatoes do me just fine. As I have commented here before, when my ex ran off with the circus my boys were so thankful, as my eldest said, "Thank God she's gone. Now we can start eating like real people, you know, lots of meat + potatoes, +none of that hippie crap." I didn't even correct him for his language, as he was quite correct.

Norman ConquestI love anchovies as well. They will fill the top with my pizza, + are also good as a sandwich on dark rye. I do confess that it is an independent taste, however.

lavacaLove Anchovies in salads, on pizzas, etc.

Aspen Hill AdventuresI use anchovies in a pickled miatake recipe. Outstanding.

I really feel bad to those that have been lied to, and convinced they are actually worth eating....

Use Enough GunFor me it has to be Vienna Sausages. Nasty, nasty, stuff.

Dude... those and Deviled ham are some of my guilty pleasures. I actually do love 'em. I think because I had them as a kid. I am amazed that after 50 years something like that can still taste the same.

Ha ha ha..... As a kid, I remember my Grandpa eating those. I have to agree with you, no thanks on the vienna sausages

Norman ConquestMy Grandfather was fond of cans of sardines (so am I), but remembering the depression, one of his staple meals was a slice of bread, torn up in a bowl of milk with a bit of salt + pepper. I wonder what my grandparents would think of the cost of eggs today; + of course, everything else.

I too cannot eat green peas cooked. When I was little my mother would serve them day after day until I would eat them. I usually just swallowed them with milk like taking pills but it made me very ill. My mother stopped trying to force me to eat them when I finally threw up all over the dinner table the last time. I have never forgotten all that trauma. I like them raw out of the pod or those sugar snaps. I grow those.
I do not eat cooked broccoli or asparagus.
I cannot stand bell peppers of any sort, even the smell of them makes me nauseous.

I had that in the winter as a kid, very often. Toast broken up, warm milk with sugar on it! YUM!

Use Enough GunBaxterB: Here's my story on the Viennas for what it's worth. I attended a provisional boy scout camp at age 12. Attendance at my very first time boy scout camp, thrown together with boys from various towns and cities and different ages. That all added to the trauma, as it was like being in a reform school.

All we had to eat for lunch each and every day for one full week were vienna sausages and bread.

I had never eaten them before and I have never eaten them since. Should have sued for intentional infliction of emotional and physical distress.

I can relate to Ann's story above.

Norman ConquestWell, fortunately, my youngest son, when growing up, LOVED broccoli + cucumbers. I fixed broccoli every night + always put a half of cucumber in his school lunch bag.

HA! Understood!

BaxterBSpeaking of anchovies - they were never used in the original caesar salad dressing - Caesar (the Italian chef in Mexico) only used Worcestershire sauce, which of course has anchovies in it.

They taste like ground up butt holes (which they are) but I LOVE them about noon on a difficult hunt. There's something about all that fat and salt that makes me happy....but ONLY on a hard hunt!

Cauliflower has no flavor and I chop a head of it up every time I make a pot of soup. It has good health benefits. In soup it takes on the flavor of the broth. I also like it raw dipped in homemade ranch dressing.
Have you ever tried rutabaga or turnips raw? Actually quite good! I am not a fan of either cooked. I don't care for cooked carrots so I shred them if making soup or stew. Then I can tolerate them. Big cooked chunks- no way, barf material. No problems raw.
I know a lot of people don't like beets. Plain just cooked- Yum! To me they are food of the gods!

Norman ConquestAnn, I agree. My mother can not stand beets, but I love them + fill my plate whenever I am at a deli salad bar.

I often open a container of them to put on a salad. Insanely good. I wish they grew better 'here' because I like them so much. I like potatoes just fine but would eat beets over them any day.

Bill/OregonCaviar, especially salmon caviar, which tastes and smells just like Mike's Cheese Bait Salmon Eggs that I used when I was a kid for trout fishing.
Fond of steamed broccoli, cauliflower and Brussels sprouts with mayo on them; the former two are very good raw dipped in ranch, as Ann suggests.
I can take or leave beets, but home grown, picked when about the size of a ping pong ball and steamed: FAB -- especially the golden cultivars.

Bill/OregonWhoops. Another comes to mind: sea cucumber. They serve it sometimes in Chinese seafood dishes. Think of jello made out of the water from under Pier 54 in Seattle.

lavacaKale. The youngsters all seem to eat that stuff, but it is bloody awful.
26 January 2023, 20:36
TCLouisAh come on kale is not that bad.
To me it is best as an admixture with other salad greens or with r in a soup with potatoes, kielbasa/Italian sausage a few veges cooked in a chicken broth.
Try it . . . You'll like it!
Sea Cucumber not only sounds nasty . . .
It IS nasty!

nvmichaelIf you sprinkle olive oil onto kale while cooking it, then add a little salt, it makes it much easier to slide it off the pan and straight into the garbage.

MARK H. YOUNGI like about everything mentioned but kale. I really don't think it is fit for human consumption. I have not tried sea cucumber so I can't comment on that.
