You know how to can get turned off of eggs if you get the egg ick.

Well I’ve gotten that with coffee and pomegranate molasses too, what foods have done that for you?

And bonus, anybody know why that happens?

Also the ick isnt just getting bored of smth after a while, it’s one event that ruins that food for you. Also can’t be a food you are having for the first time. Ideally if it is being consumed in a normal way and its not the preparation of the food that ruins it.

Canned chicken. One time I decided to buy a can just to see if I can take a break from eating canned tuna (would have two cans of tuna as a meal)… the moment I opened the canned chicken I was like nooooooope. It smelled fkin gross.

Mushrooms.

Everything about them disgusts me, from the way they look, to the way they smell, the texture they have and the disgusting mouldy, dirty taste. Even seeing them growing in the ground grosses me out and I’ll take a wide path around them to avoid going near them.

Outside of magic mushrooms, they have literally zero redeeming qualities. I hate them with a passion and it’s basically the only food I never grew out of hating.

Same, although I tolerate a mushroom here or there now, I never select them to eat by my own choice.

I was in a cafe recently and the table next to me ordered mushroom soup, the smell nearly made me sick, I was pretty hungover that day though!

Shrimp.

A friend pointed out to me that shrimp are basically the cockroaches of the sea. They just float around and eat fish poop all day. So gross and I can’t even.

Only good I know for a fact I couldn’t eat was McDonald’s. Got food poisoning when I was 14 and wouldn’t touch it for like 10 years. Then I was craving a big Mac one day and I’ve been back on since haha

Tinned cream of mushroom soup. Used to love it as a cheap way to make a mushroom pasta or whatever when I was at uni and on a student budget. One day the texture just did not play right with me and now I often physically gag when I think about it.
