Those of you who dislike ice cream and cheese - are you perhaps lactose intolerant? Just curious.

The Le Seouer (sp?) canned peas are yummy! They're the only ones we (my family) will eat.

It used to take me a whole glass of milk to get the peas put on my plate down. I managed to perfect it so I would barely taste them at all - just nothing "yummy" about them! And even their color is awful! But I digress - my allergies make it so I cannot eat them at all any more.

Yup - the can with the silver label - they are really good and the only one's I buy. I don't know how you cook them, but I drain the water - put them in a microwave dish with a pat of butter and a pinch of sugar and nuke for about 2 minutes. Makes those sweet peas extra sweet!

I'll post the recipe for how we eat them in the recipe thread if I can find it!

I found the side dish thread that was recently started - it's a side dish so I put it there.

Canned veggies-ew! I also can't stand lima beans or edamame. Even if I have a soup made with either I'll pick them out. I'm not a huge fan of strawberries, but I'll eat them.

Liver is double EW! But I think that one is a really common dislike.

I'm not very picky...

ketchup
mushrooms
liver
spinach
olives

I am going to open a can of menudo, toss in some onions, cilantro and have it for BREAKFAST!

I was jonesing for some anchovies on my pizza the other day.....they din't have any at Pizza Hut!

Where was it I saw a newsclip about people who were eating 'dirt cookies'?

Or was it wood cookies? They women would incorporate the 'filler' to make a cookie to ward off hunger. It was killing and making them sick.

God, what an option. Eating to get sick and die, or starving to death.

It makes me appreciate all the things that I eat, that I don't like and that throw out when they go bad or I am done with them. I try to eat every last spoon of the dishes that I cook.

IT's wonderful we live in a society where we can turn a nose up at what we can eat, can afford to eat and have the option to turn down.

My dad used to force us to eat liver (it was that or go hungry). I had to literally hold back from tossing my cookies with every bite. I don't turn down food for the sake of it. As someone who has been faced with the "eat or starve" (eating stale ramen for weeks on end, having literally nothing, etc), I can empathize. Something is always better than nothing.

I am very appreciative of everything that I have had regardless of whether I favoured it or not.
