I'll go with Mike on the Calmari! I love everything out of the sea except maybe herring and anchovies!

I think people who dislike seafood must not have tasted really fresh well prepared fish and shellfish. I can't think of anything better to eat than a properly prepared Turbot or Dover Sole Filet unless perhaps a lobster. The problem with seafood is rapid deterioration. The fish dies when caught and then deteriorates rapidly. A great restaurant will make every effort to serve fish no more than a day after being caught. Refrigeration helps extend the 'freshness' time period but to a limited extent. Freezing causes the fish to lose natural juices when thawing making for a dry filet (some fish handle this better than others - examples: Tilapia and Orange Roughy). Over cooking is the other main enemy of good seafood. The chef needs to carefully monitor the cooking process so that the fish is just barely done (flaky and white throuhghout) and then serve immediately. Overcooking expels the juices and makes for dry and uninteresting fish. Lobster and shrimp are dry and too chewy when overcooked. Look for fish that were just caught. The skin should glisten and the eyes should be clear and gleaming, not cloudy. Smell the fish. If there is even the slightest hint of a fishy smell then don't buy it. Fresh seafood never has a fishy smell. Fatty fish, like Salmon, are not so fast to spoil. They can survive in the market for several days. I love good seafood.

High on my list of foods that I dislike and try to avoid are prepared convenience foods of almost any type. I don't want frozen dinners, bottled salad dressings, canned soup, or anything else that isn't freshly made with fresh ingredients.

I don't like plums or peaches, fresh. They're only OK in pies or cobblers. I do like the flavors in salad dressings or drinks, so it must be the texture that bothers me. I'm not a big banana fan, either. they need to be at the exactly perfect stage between green and ripe for me to eat them. But, again, banana flavorings are OK, just not the fruit.

Otherwise, most processed meat, jello, radishes, over salted food. I'd rather not have fried food if there's a choice.

[Lauren]

Olives.

I hate them. Will not eat anything they touch. I hate the texture. The way they look. Cut up. I will not eat anything that has cut up olives in them. Though, I do use olive oil in salads.

Also don't like curry, and most fish.

[Wonder Woman]

Okra.

And, most slimey things. Makes me gag.

I hate spagetti,

Really If you told me I would not gain weight, that would be the first thing I would eat

[sadie1263]

sauerkraut (did I spell that right?) and black eyed peas.........not fond of black olives but I love green olives (isn't that odd)

[ilene]

I hate liver but I like chopped liver

[Lauren]

I also dislike Jello. I love the smell of the powder, and when it is getting set, but for some reason I cannot swallow Jello. It will not go down my throat, and I always end up gagging on it. It's weird.

I only like sauerkraut when my mom makes sauerkraut soup. The taste isn't so strong as if you were to eat it plain. But to have it on a sausage, no. I can only eat it when it's in a soup.

[sadie1263]

In a soup? Never heard of that...........sounds disturbing..........but I guess if my mom made it I would try it too..........course we have a lot of jokes about the leftovers my mom tries to put together and call a new meal. The kids always ask......"Is it Mema surprise or did she really cook?"

[sadie1263]

I really do not like..............chocolate.

[june]

Soya beans

And baked beans BUT I like bean juice. So when my hubby has beans on toast, I slip in an extra slice of toast and pour beans over. Scrape beans off my bit and there you have bean juice toast!

[Mo-DAWG]

i hate eggs ... well not particularly hate them but for some reason i barf my guts out when i try to eat eggs ..

oh and i hate pork .. hate the smell of it.. hate the taste of it even more (oh and nooooooo im not muslim .. i would hate that too lol)

[DAS (formerly BushAdmirer)]

Ooohhhhhh Mo-DAWG, pork is one of the very very best foods you can eat on Planet Earth. Come to Texas and we'll fix you some bbq pork baby back ribs that are to die for. Or Mexican Carnitas which are like tacos but with pork and much better. What about ham? One of the best things to eat that there is. Pork would be my first choice if I could only have one meat. It is so versatile and so delicious.
