Okra - anything that makes its own slime I just can't eat
Organ meats
Raw oysters
Squid/Octopus - though I will eat calamari
Marmite

Otherwise, I will eat pretty much anything that isn't too exotic.  I've heard of some very ethnic dishes that really turn me off, and the idea of eating bugs of any sort is just vile.

Man.   NO ONE will eat that stuff! :P

Seriously, what do you do on your birthday? Birthday soup? ;)

There is ALWAYS ice-cream, Lola.   :)

My mom eats okra - loves it.  But she's a Southern Gal at heart.  My dad won't touch it.

Compared to everyone else's list, this may seem odd but.... black licorice  [smiley=puke.gif]

Oh, too bad! I was so hoping for a dinner of black licorice and beef paste! ;)

Okra
Squid
Marmite
Raw fish

So you're texture-oriented, then?  I looooove sushi and calamari!! And a marmite sammidge? YUM! Okra, I can take or leave.

What I won't eat is a pretty short list: Any four-legged critter  :P

Aside from that, I'm not too fussy, except for allergies. I'm allergic to crustaceans (lobster, crab, prawns, etc.). Fortunately, I'm OK with mollusks, so moules marinere is fine 'n' dandy!  ;D

I've only had okra once.  It was fried and I actually like it.

I don't like tripe, or bambi!

Hmmm most other things I do like!  I have not tried a lot that I know I would not eat!!!  My dad used to have cow brains as a kid, I think he liked it too!

I can't stand anything with the consistency of porridge...rice pudding, etc.  ICK!!!  I'm also a black licorice hater.  Brussel sprouts are just not worth eating.  And beets (or beetroot as it's called here).  Other than that...seem to like far too much food!

I'm vegetarian/pescetarian so meat & animal products go without saying. Apart from that:

Brussel sprouts
Beetroot (although I had it in a salad once, raw & grated and that was ok)
Brown sauce
Anything that's been overcooked (eg soggy broccoli)
Mussels & most shellfish
Aniseed
Semolina pudding
Steamed puddings, especially with custard
Treacle
That Japanese fermented beancurd stuff that looks and smells like puke.

okra
brussel sprouts
tripe
marmite
There are others, just can't remember them.

beer (I've tried and tried, but just don't like it)

beer??, how can you dislike beer.  Like peedal's signature mentions and a t-shirt I have with the same quote from Ben Franklin, "Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy."   ;D
