anything in vinegar (including, but, not limited to, pickles)
black licorice
kraut
McDonald's and Hardee's biscuits
cauliflower (which is in the same category as broccoli, I don't mind the taste so much as the texture)

I like cauliflower best when it's cooked to the consistency of home fried potatoes, or chick peas, then smothered in something unhealthy, like butter or cheese sauce. Yum.

Hazelnut, Just the thought.......

Celeriac
Aniseed (and all related flavours, including Pernod etc)
Cow's udder (though that is a texture thing)
Earl Grey tea
Violet cream chocolates (or any of those floral flavour ones).

I loved what Ina Garten (The Barefoot Contessa) said about Brussels sprouts...

"Most people hate Brussels sprouts because they remember the awful boiled things they had as a child.

"But they haven't had Brussels sprouts with pancetta."

Interesting how many folks don't like green peppers. My mother, who is also a farmer, recently informed me that we are not really supposed to eat green peppers because they are unripe. That seems to explain a lot. Although I don't hate the flavor, my digestive system has never been able to take them.

I really hated all pickles until very recently. A lot of the new restaurants that have popped up in Philadelphia have very interesting cuisines, such as house-made versions of everything from sausage to pickles. House-made pickles are delicious!

Man, you lot sure are picky. I can't think of anything I just can't eat. There are a few things I'm not partial to, but I'd still eat them if they came as part of a meal (especially one I didn't cook, which probably wouldn't contain things I don't particularly like).

If 10 were allowed I'd be adding spearmint. love peppermint, hate the spearmint.

This is what I've always said! I love red bell peppers. Green ones are hideous. On the other hand, I greatly prefer tart green apples over red ones.

I see Clod's point here -- in that Delicious-variety apples don't keep very well, and puckery Granny Smiths do, besides being the thing for pie baking.

Delicious eaten the afternoon they are picked is another story; they live up to their name then. Keep 'em around, though, and they go mealy. In the supermarket I'll buy any other variety first.

And yellow and orange. I don't like the taste of green peppers, but I don't hate them enough to pick them out of my salad.

Anise.

Ick.

I will trade snails for anise. I had an aunt who was crazy about anise. Every year her tin of Christmas Cookies went straight into the trash. EVERY year.
