http://shine.yahoo.com/channel/food/5-foods-people-fear-and-how-to-get-over-it-2368390/ Do you have any? I don't and I find it odd that people have food phobias. Is it like "No, I don't want to eat it because it is going to kill me!" or "No, I don't want to eat it because it looks like a bug"?
Seriously? I love beans. I am trying to think of food that makes me want to barf and so far I'm drawing blank...
I find that a lot of women don't like fish. "It's just gross." Lil Pun- you're an evil man, not sharing cheese with your kid. I don't eat oysters. I've tried them and it's like swallowing snot. But they don't scare me at all.

Oh no, I actually encourage her to eat cheese and want her to eat and enjoy it but I just can't feed it to her because it stinks. I let others partake in that.
I have a visceral reaction to broccoli. I was able to choose one food as a child that my parent wouldn't make me eat, and I instantly chose broccoli. The smell of it is enough to make vomit. I don't think it will kill me or hurt me, but I just can't make myself tolerate its presence at the table, let alone eat it. I know it's all in my head, and I've built up this hatred of broccoli for decades. My wife is a chef and has opened culinary corridors I never knew existed, but at this point, I don't see broccoli ever being something I'll eat again.
None whatsoever. NOT hispanic??? But, but... they're beans. Beans! The magical food! The more you eat, the more you toot!
Tripas SICK SICK SICK ............. I don't care if your great great grandma can cook them good. Hispanic? yes.
^ Is that the same thing or something similar to "Chitlings"? I've never had chitlings, but the "Tripas" must be cleaned well before cooking. Heck, you eat MENUDO, why not Tripas? :grin:
Natto. My fiance loves it (she's Japanese), but I can't be in the room when she's eating it. It's not too awful when she opens the package; it becomes awful when she starts stirring it around and the odor begins to permeate the room. The smell is bad enough, but it looks ferociously disgusting as well... all sticky and gooey... All fermented stuff disturbs me greatly. I watch Bizarre Foods a lot on the Travel Channel, and it doesn't bother me when he crunches down on swamp rat or tree worms... what disturbs me is when he eats something like "stinky tofu".
