[Food] How fussy are you with food ?

[WATFORD zero]

And my son doesn't eat Olives. Fussy gits, the pair of them

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Tete de veau

I imagine @Herr Tubthumper is a fan though having seen some of his dishes on the European tour

I would pay NOT to have to eat it

Not had this specific dish but I have had calf’s head and foot stew in Barcelona. The addition of the feet gives it a really sticky texture. You can get this yourself at Can Vilaro.

 

[Wrong-Direction]

There's two things I wouldn't choose in a restaurant and that's raw coconut and tripe. I've eaten them both in dishes and don't mind them, I simply wouldn't choose them. Apart from them, any meat (great fan of Offal), sheep's brains, Steak a Cheval, sweetbreads, oysters, mussels, winkles, whelks, any veg or seafood whatsoever.

I've never tried and don't fancy Casu Martzu, but I'm pretty sure, I've been responsible for the larvae disappearing at the bottom of a bottle of Mezcal.

So, what would you not eat ?

The majority of this..

 

[maffew]

I'll eat almost anything though would have to be pretty starving to eat one of these

Hopefully not too fussy, I was brought up on very varied dinners (thanks Mum) which may help. But as a kid I didn’t like cheese or tomatoes, I naturally got over that through my first meals out with mates as late teens, in Italians because they’re in most dishes. I always loved veg.

The very fussy kid thing started by the 70’s. I had mates with working mums who were the first gen of frozen dinners kids eg McCain, burgers. Swerving veg.

Controversial foodstuffs I like …. mushrooms, marzipan, liquorice, aniseed, sprouts, haggis.

The foods I detest or simply cannot swallow:
Goat’s cheese …. I detest the taste.
All strong or runny cheeses. Brie, Camembert, blue cheeses …. yuk.
Gooseberries
Rhubarb
Parsnips
Marmite

- Nothing that flies or wants to fly
- Nothing that swims or wants to swim
- No ugly bottom crawling sea insects
- Dates, olives, raisins and all that kind of shit

Pizza with pineapple it is then! Hold on the olives

The only think I've tried once and was utterly appaled by was Salmiakki, the Finnish salted liquorice. I'm not the greatest fan of the black stuff anyway but that thick layer of salt did nothing for me.

I believe the Swedes eat it too. Do you partake @Han Solo ?

The last, and only, time I had it was over 20 years ago so perhaps enough taste buds have died that it'd now be palatable. I doubt it though

 

[RustyKent]

Eggs of any kind . Yes my wife says I'm weird too don't worry ..........

No eggs for me too, you're not alone!

 

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

No food I won't eat that I know of. I had snails recently having liked them before and thought "not sure id ever order these again" so put me down for snails.

I AM fussy about bread. Make me a sandwich with sub standard bread? Throw it in the sea.

 

[LANGDON SEAGULL]

I tried Hakarl on a recent trip to Reykjavik. Fermented shark - stinks of ammonia and tastes like old trainers. Absolutely foul

 

[juliant]

Not even as an ingredient in something?

If its in a cake etc i cant taste it. But an egg. Be it boiled , poached , fried . No thank you and haven't for at least 45 years.

The smell of hard boiled eggs makes me reach !

 

[VAL1850]

Not fussy at all... Even eat Amex Burgers......

Yup, I'm a fan!

Most non-Scandinavians aren't exactly in love with it.
I prefer "normal" liquorice over salmiakki though.

Easter ?

 

[Easy 10]

Cucumber. Absolutely vile, pollutes everything it comes into contact with.
Liver / kidney. The texture is disgusting.
Sushi. Just the thought of it makes me GAG

I'm not a big fan either. Only eat it if it is some cheap hotel breakfast with no good protein source.
Hate when other people eat it around me...

 

[southstandandy]

Not fussy at all, but still like a good Sunday roast or steak as preferences.

 

[Mr Bridger]

Monkey brain.

Bit strong, I know he’s desperate and needing attention but no need for that.
