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

Ah, but he never said anything about drinking beer.   ;D

Sweet potatoes and ESPECIALLY sweet potato pie. Ugh. Just thinking about  it stimulates my gag reflex.
I know I'm late - where's the booze?

Squid/Octopus - though I will eat calamari

But calamari *IS* squid!

I wont eat mushrooms, capers, organ meats, black pudding, or mussels. 
I also dont like cooked tomatoes... i will eat tomatoes raw (preferably with olive oil, salt & pepper), but not cooked tomatoes, or tomato sauce/pasta sauce.  I do like bolognese sauce, but i think it's because the beef taste covers up the tomato taste.  Or because Im a freak.  :-\\\\

I can't eat eggs, no way, no how. Hated 'em since I was a little kid.  The idea of them totally grosses me out.  And they taste icky.  Real mayo tastes too much like them to be edible either, though the very light kinds I can tolerate mostly. 

I'm with you on the onions thing.  They really need to be cooked, disguised and completely indistinguishable for me to eat them.

And I don't like any kind of alcoholic beverages.  Wine and beer just make me feel hot and weird, and the taste has never grown on me.  I have been able to have a rum and coke once upon a time, but even that anymore seems silly.  I'm perfectly happy with the coke!  Why ruin it with rotten stuff?  ;)

I should have added if it smells funny I will not eat it...I am sooo picky.

I also do not drink beer, but I will add I do not drink at all.

~Liver
~Brussels Sprouts
~All seafood but shrimp and mild white fish


I know there are lots more, I am funny about textures and smells, but thats what comes to me at the moment!

Black licorice
peppermint patties or any pure mint candy
olives (like squeegies on your teeth!)
iceberg lettuce (tastes wet and dirty)
radishes
ketchup
miracle whip (slimy AND sweet? NO thankyou!!!)
Actually I am not a fan of most cold, wet food unless its fruit. Eggs I can tolerate if they are scrambled and they have ketchup on them, even though I hate ketchup. Go figure!

I know!  But for some reason when it's dipped in batter and fried, it no longer is so disgusting.  It's the stuff they serve in Greek resturants where it's just sorta pickled and you can SEE it - EEEEWWWW!!!  That totall grosses me out.
