Beans...I really, really hate beans other than string beans. I don't
like the flavor, the texture or the gas I get eating them. And I find
them particularly disgusting in their refried state. Don't mistake me,
I do like a lot of Mexican food... But NOT the refried beans.
Tofu. I know it's supposed to be good for you, but it's so BLAH! I'll
eat it when it's served in a dish with other ingredients and takes its
flavor from them and I know it's adaptable, but it's the world's most
boring form of protein as far as I'm concerned. My Dad once
rhapsodized that "you could LIVE off tofu!" To which I answered "Who
would WANT to?"
Bananas, I'll tolerate them flambeed and sometimes in the form of
banana bread. But I do not like plain, raw bananas. It's mostly the
texture, for me.
While I love a plain baked sweet potato with just a bit of butter,
I hate yams or sweet potatoes that taste like dessert because they've
been so oversweetened with sugar or maple syrup or what have you.
Especially with marshmallows added.
Brussels Sprouts. Mushy, and bitter EW!
Not crazy about anything that's bitter. Sour is fine, bitter, no.
Bitter greens, I'll take a pass, thanks.
