People Explain Which Foods Everyone Seems To Love That They Can't Stomach

I've watched people devour things I couldn't fathom swallowing.

Like... "Why are you doing that to your body?"

I love food as much as the next person, but somethings really should just stay on the vine.

So many of the current most popular foods make no sense to me.

Avocado. Just... why? It's green slime.

To each their own.

Redditormintylye wanted to discuss personal issues with the menu. They asked:

"What food does everyone love to eat, but you don't?"

I am very picky eater. I try not to be, but I can't help it. My list long.

"Ham it's so gross I like other meats but ham is just so disgusting."

Fresh Roast

"Not a food, but coffee. The entire planet seems to start their day with a cup and I can’t get the taste for it."

"I actually LOVE the taste of coffee but I rarely drink it. I just try to wake up with a glass of water instead of the caffeine."

"I feel like the point of coffee is to wake you up, so it never made sense to me to drink decaf (even though I like the taste), so I just decide not to drink it. I do have a coffee pot and there are times where I’m feeling frisky, but I’m glad that it’s an addiction that I haven’t gotten into."

Hell NO!

"Steak. Not red meat, just a fat steak. Gristle, fat, texture, and childhood trauma play a key role in why I dislike steak. Trust me, I've had numerous people - including my previous roommate who is a professional chef - try to get me to like it. It ain't happening. I do love a good burger though."

Separate

"Chocolate ice cream I love them separately though."

SuvenPan

"Yes! A lot of chocolate flavored stuff I'd say is more 'cocao' flavored if that makes sense, same with chocolate milk, chocolate pudding, etc."

"I'm the same. I like chocolate, but majority of chocolate flavoured things taste very different and are not enjoyable for me."

bad sweets...

"Marshmallow peeps."

"They are overwhelmingly sweet. But I have childhood nostalgia associated with them so I still eat them."

Those Peeps are the work of Satan. I said what I said.

I'm ill...

"Mayo and ranch, but mostly mayo. The sight of a glob of thick ranch or mayo makes my stomach uneasy."

Helicoppter

Clearly the best...

"Sweet potato pie. I can’t stand sweet potatoes but to put it in a pie… that’s just too much."

WonderlissBliss

"Dog it tastes nothing like actual sweet potatoes. Sweet potato pie is like candy trust me. My mom used to make it for me when I was little."

"But she called it 'butterscotch pie' to trick me into eating it as she knew I'd want nothing to do with it if I found out it contained sweet potatoes. Clearly the best pie. I assume you haven't ever tried it. Big mistake. It's like if someone took a pumpkin pie and was like, 'what if I increase all of its stats by ten points'. Perfect pie."

fresh off the boat...

"About the only seafood I'll eat is breaded fish sticks. Which has about as much in common with seafood as Taco Bell does with Mexican food. None at all. The smell, texture and taste of the rest of the seafood world is just nauseating to me. Which some people can't seem to grasp as I live less than a 10 minute drive to the fishing docks and get whatever I want fresh off the boat."

In your mouth...

"Caviar tried it once like pouring salt shaker in your mouth. Venison gamey Beef."

MissGoodbean

"Then you haven't had good caviar. I had it in Moscow and it was super. I don't like sushi or a lot of seafood."

"Celery. What the f**k, people. Not good."

"Crunchy water!"

I actually love celery. But I'm weird.

People are required to have a license to drive, fish, and have certain jobs.

So it boggles my mind that people aren't required to have a license to have kids.

Some of the cruelest and most vicious things I've ever heard were words uttered by a parent to a child.

As an adult, I was haunted by a few thigs.

I can't imagine the scaring of an adolescent.

A tough realization that most of us have to process and accept at some point is the fact that our parents lied to us when we were kids.

But the tougher fact to process may not be the lying itself, but some of the lies that were told along the way.

With theaters finally open to those wanting the ultimate entertainment experience that streaming movies at home can't provide, the pandemic that kept many venues closed now feels like a distant memory.

There's nothing like seeing a film up on the big screen the way Hollywood studios intended, and many would argue that experience is worth shelling out the cash for.

That being said, there is no assurance audiences will remain in their seats until the credits roll at the end.

Because not all movies are created equal. Some are just embarrassingly bad and not worth sticking around for.

If there was one good thing to come out of the pandemic, it was that it made us all the more appreciative of all that is good in our lives.

No one ever appreciated the importance of friends or family more, having to be kept apart from each other for months, or the little things which bring us joy, which we made sure to keep doing even as pandemic restrictions were lifted.

Of course, being alone with our thoughts for such a long time also resulted in our reflecting on things in our lives, or in the world in general, which we were less than happy about.

Not to mention the all-important realization that life is short and precious, and we don't have time to waste our thoughts on some things.
