FabSwingers.com forum: What everyday food have you not tried?

Wolverhampton

I knew a girl at university who refused to try potatoes. And I saw an interview with Ringo Starr once in which he said he'd never had a pizza.

I personally have never eaten a pop tart or a pot noodle.

What everyday foods have you not gotten around to trying or that just the thought of gives you the ick?

I’m quite open to trying anything to see if I like it.

As for food I won’t try olives. I just don’t like the look of them

Was tempted to pick up some sauerkraut the other day, but wasn't brave enough in the end. Which is weird, because I like kimchi.

I've also been thinking about trying pickled eggs for a while.

Slightly off topic, but, an ex colleague had a aversion to white/cream food. She wouldn't eat anything of that colour. How bizarre.

Some interesting answers. Had a look through and have tried all these common foods apart from tripe, offal, cheese strings, whelks and turbot. I'm ignoring answers like tarantula as I don't think that's too common for dinner where I live

I'm quite impressed with myself for trying so many things. Can't say I've liked them all. Olives for one can go get stuffed

Thanks for sharing guys
