Foods that I like. Foods that I dislike. In response to the lovely Elanamatic's post "Love/Hate"... I generally like and tolerate food and I find people who have long lists of foods that they dislike a bit suspect. When Mom-in-law was here, they told a story of some friend/relative/accomplice who only eats hamburgers. Literally. When you go out to eat, they better have hamburgers on the menu. That is just crazy.
As some people are lactose intolerant, I am "people with food issues" intolerant. Life is too short.
I also don't believe that god will strike you down if you eat the wrong food. So, I am intolerant in that way as well.
Foods I dislike (or "hate") Raisins As a child, I apparently ate raisins - but something must have happened. Something traumatic. I am not a huge fan of raisiny type things (ironic) as well, such as...
Sun dried tomatoes I tolertate them. But often I'll move them to the other side of the plate if no one is looking.
Gorgonzola cheese Really. I have tried. I just don't like it.
Capers I just don't like them. Granted, I once had a crappy dinner in crappytowne (NC) that also featured excessive capers. So, I may still be making that connection between that crappy dinner and capers.
Foods that I avoid Hazelnut Recently I have been having issues with anything hazelnutty as I seem to have become overly sensitive to it - in terms of it overwhelming everything else in my mouth.
Radish Similar to hazelnuts, I can never rid my mouth of the taste of radishes.
Crappy tomatoes
Foods I like (or "love") Tuna Scallops Eel Papaya Cornish hen Nice steak Spaghetti (with sausage and big noodles) Fish tacos Peking duck Waffles Anything curry Nan Peanuts Lamb My gazpacho Chocolate chips Bon Bon Chicken Eggs in some sort of taco setting Tiny hamburgers Real hamburgers (no frozen patty crap) Fried chicken My late grandmother's pound cake
