Foods/Drinks You Have Tried and NEVER AGAIN!

[Cachoo]

Chicken Gizzards

Go!!!

 

[MacMadame]

Chicken Feet. Not enough meat and I'm not a fan of chicken skin in general especially not fried.

ETA I will probably try them at least once more though. Just in case it was just that one restaurant and how they prepared them.

 

[VALuvsMKwan]

Bad batch of spoiled banana pudding as a child in ancient history, so no.

 

[clairecloutier]

Chicken livers. ugh. (We ordered them at an expensive and good restaurant, too, so it wasn't that they were badly prepared.)

I have tried sushi several times, just to see if I could develop any kind of taste for it. So far, no. LOL.

 

[flyingsit]

Bone marrow. It was so slimy that I almost retched.

 

[vgerdes]

Rocky Mountain oysters. Blech.

 

[quartz]

Tequila. I was 16. Never again.

Raw or cooked?

 

[made_in_canada]

Sea lion.

 

[Winnipeg]

Darian fruit

frog legs

 

[Japanfan]

OMG I love frogs' legs.

One thing I never could and never will is intestines. Though I did have beef heart once and it was delicious.

I know of someone who is a land surveyer and works in the far Canadian north. She was treated to an Indigenous dinner, including whale meat and seals' intestines. She said it was horrible.

 

[MacMadame]

I enjoyed frogs legs too. They taste like chicken mostly.

I also have had pig intestines. It wasn't to my taste but if I had to, I'd eat them again.

 

[Anemone]

A particular brand of soy yoghurt. It was disgusting.
A recipe for "healthy" pasta sauce I tried off the internet one time, based on avocado. Two bites and the contents of the pot went in the bin and I ordered pizza LOL!

 

[skateycat]

Anything with truffle oil. It tastes like butt smell.

 

[allezfred]

Root beer.

 

[Barbara Manatee]

Marshmallow Peeps

 

[puglover]

Taro and breadfruit - we had it a lot in Samoa and I just struggled to swallow them no matter how they were cooked - well deep fried chips were okay.

 

[Kruss]

Rabbit. My sister tricked me into eating it, and afterwards I spent an hour trying not to

 

[Aerobicidal]

Ground black pepper

 

[Japanfan]

A particular brand of soy yoghurt. It was disgusting.

I tried soy cheese once, having bought it by mistake. I thought it tasted like plastic.

beautiful and poignant haiku

 

[hanca]

Century eggs. I read about it and really, really wanted to try it. I am not even sure how I can explain why, because it is not as if black eggs look very inviting... ok, I am happy that I tried it, but now I know that I really don’t like that! The egg white was actually not THAT bad (relatively speaking), but the yolk was deadly!

 

[quartz]

beautiful and poignant haiku

Ha!




(thank god there was not social media and cellphone cameras by the multitude in 1978)

 

[paskatefan]

sauerkraut, liverwurst

For me it was screwdrivers---- It was my first experience with hard alcohol: I had to work the next day and my father was so angry and made sure, sick as I was, that I was not going to miss getting up early and heading to work. And then I was grounded. Live and learn. I was off of vodka for a long, long time.

I don't hate squid ink: But I hate looking at it so I'm not interested in eating it. And offal--I loved watching Anthony Bourdain but never understood his love of offal---his respect, yes---but generally the taste?? Not so much...

When I turned 21, my best friend and I headed to Las Vegas. In our MGM Grand hotel room we mixed up vodka with Tang before heading down to the casino. I have never been so sick in my life. For years, I wouldn't touch anything vodka and orange. I can drink real screwdrivers now, but I'm way older.

 

[Ka3sha]

Limoncello.

Drank it once, it didn’t end up well and I still hate even a smell of it.

 

[Lacey]

Tongue, I think it was beef tongue, my mother made it about 4 times per year, served w mustard sauce. YUK.

 

[once_upon]

Tongue, rabbit, escargot, alligator, squirrel, liver, oysters, kale, avocado, blue cheese, root beer, beer, rum.

 

[Sarrie]

Papaya - I love pretty much all fruit but I just hate the taste of papaya.

Peanut Sauce - I had a bad experience with peanut butter as a child. Weirdly peanut butter doesn't bother me now but peanut sauce takes me right back to the 4th grade .
