tastes in food

[marysmerrycats]

yesterday my mom and I, were talking about peoples tastes in food. we neither one like escargo, cavier (sp?), and there were some people in her complex that said oh they love that! we both think it's gross! we like simple food, none of that fancy stuff. there are lots of fancy food, or as we call them, "foo foo"!

how many here like the simple kind of food, and how many like the gross stuff?

[Soledad]

I like it all!!!

[Sara luvs her Tinky]

I would consider myself a picky eater... I don't like all that fancy stuff either.... I love almost anything bread and POTATOS!!!!!!!

[The Cat Factory]

I am a very picky eater!

[wolf_Q]

I've never even tried any "foo foo" like escargo or cavier (I don't know how to spell them either).......I've never even been somewhere that offered them, lol. Doesn't look appealing to me anyway.

I like my stuff plain

When I got older, I decided to try some of the unusual stuff like caviar (couldn't get it outta my mouth fast enough ), escargo (love it!!), fried calamarie (sp?) (tastes like fried elastic bands). I won't eat exotic stuff like antelope, alligator, frogs legs, etc. Too gamey for me.

Give me meatloaf, mashed potatoes, steak, lots of veggies and Mexican food anyday!!

I'll try anything; bring on the "gross stuff!"

Hehehe!!!! I'll agree with that! What part of the lobster were you eating that Helen and I just couldn't do???

I'll eat anything except:
oysters on the half shell
liver
prairie oysters
caviar

I have eaten:
alligator
jellyfish
escargot
frogs legs
squid
tripe

If I had my way, boring old Canadian food would be out the window and I'd stuff myself with ethnic food. Thai, Malaysia, Indian, anything but mashed potatoes.

I think I have to agree with Slick on this one. The more variety in your food the better it is. I have tried all the things on her "eaten list" except the jellyfish and I can add:
reindeer
turtle
octopus (the suction cups are kind of shewy)
UVO (unidentified vegetable objects )

I am not a picky eater, but i have some dislikes.I had sushi once and it was ok but the thought of eating a raw squid was just too weird.I also dont really like any kind of fish but tuna.

[babolaypo65]

I love different "ethnic foods"
sushi: mmmmmm
thai,
mexican
indian:MMMMMMMMMMMM
chinese....

but, my all time, favorite "comfort food" (the one you eat when you're down, or stressed): lima beans. seriously.
second favorite comfort food is pizza

I LOVE spicey foods. I LOOOOOOOOOVE mexican food! I'm not a big seafood person though.. i like popcorn shrimp with lemon juice on it

[jenluckenbach]

Picky, that's me. I do not like the unknown. And I like everything PLAIN.
