I absolutely cannot stand apples. The taste, the look, the smell... Someone eating an apple is usually enough to make me clear a room. I'm not too fond of most fruit but apples are the bane of my existence. Pineapples are tasty though.

It's not food-related but that reminds me of how when I was in high school there was this apple-scented hairspray that was very popular, and as it was about 1990 big hair was in. As it turned out I was allergic to the apple hairspray and I almost passed out one time in the dressing room of the drama department when every single girl in there but me whipped out the apple spray at once. I couldn't breathe for about a minute, and I had to be dragged out of there. :P Anyways I'm surprised that I still liked apples after that...

Yikes, that's crazy Sparky! And it sucks that the big hair was in and you know everyone and their dog had it lol...

The food that I can't understand why anyone, ANYONE eats is pickled pigs feet.

They're ANIMAL FEET in a JAR OF LIQUID and they look like a science experiment!

Wow, that wouldn't happen to have been Salon Selectives brand, would it? Red bottle? Haha, yes, we remember that stuff well, don't we? 8D I used it too *blush*. I didn't so much have big hair though as just big bangs. I feathered them all out. And then put gel in my permed hair to keep the curly-cues in check. Ah, good times, good times. :P

Eh hem, back on topic-

I KNOW! I've never understood that either. How do people eat those things?

And oh, another food I don't like much is onion soup. The only cooked onions I really like are on pizza. I prefer onions raw, whether chopped in my burrito or sliced on a sandwich or in a salad. Onion soup tastes way too "oniony" to me. And thanks to the lingering taste, I fear the whole world can smell the stuff by just being near me. That's not a happy feeling.

I've never been a big fan of beef gravy, either. Especially if there's mushrooms in it. I like beef, and I like mushrooms. But I prefer my gravy to be chicken flavored or white (country gravy, mmmmm!), and I prefer my mushrooms not cooked in a brown salty liquid.

I thought of something else... Cow tongue. Apparently it's supposed to be good... but that just freaks me out. I remember being really young and watching my dad eat it. I was really grossed out and he told me that the reason cow tongue tasted so good was because the cows licked each others butts.... I've never been able to try cow tongue after that.

I had cow tongue once, and loved it. Reminded me of corned beef with how it was prepared.

Chicken feet aren't anything to write home about. There's amost no meat - it just looks funny on your plate.

Jellyfish is kind of tasteless and rubbery.

Oh wait, here's a big one - airline food.

Seriously, does anybody actually like those little packets of rubbery fruit they serve out alongside your meal? I blame one such encounter with those dodgy dinners for single-handedly putting me off melons for life. :P

No offense, but i like airline food. They taste good on a long flight.

Fair enough. You'll have to tell me which airline you're using, so I can consider them next time I have to travel during feeding hours. I always seem to pick the ones that serve that gosh-darn-inedible fruit.

When I went to the Con last year I flew with Delta, and they served us this:

Ah, the legendary Delta "Snack Pack". Comes with a choice of beverages, most of which were carbonated. Not bad, actually, but not fat-free, either. In the first-class section they got something called a "Meal Pack" but I have no idea what it contained. This year I'm flying with Northwest so I'll be enjoying an entirely new and different culinary experience. Yay me. 8D
