Weird food quirks

Everyone has things they don't like, which isn't really a quirk..but carraway seeds disgust me. I abhor them. They are revolting little packages of a disgusting flavor I can not even begin to describe. I literally wish every caraway seed was stripped from the earth and burned, never to poison a food item ever again.

I can't deal with anything key-lime flavored. Had to drink a quart of key-lime flavored barium that nearly did me in, can't stomach even the smell anymore.

Grape Tang. I don't think they even make that stuff anymore, but when I was a kid I had to take penicillin for an ear infection and, because I couldn't choke down the huge pill, my mom used to grind it up and stir it in grape Tang. I can't even think about it without getting the smell of that medicine in my nose.

I go through weird stages of food, where I eat only that one food for a while, before I tire of it and move on to another food obsession.

Right now I am on a Triscuit kick. I eat a box of them every single day. Awhile back, I was on a popcorn kick.....I ate a bag of it every single day. Before that I had a black licorice kick.....then a beef jerky phase before than.

You get the idea.

I LOVE triscuts! Especially the Rye ones topped w/ a slice of cheese and slightly melted in the micro...OMG Heaven!!!

good explanation, and interesting comments! :lol:

The psychology of food aversions – Eatocracy - CNN.com Blogs

That was actually a really good article. I know I hate Cherry flavored anything because I've always associated it with cold medicine and throwing up. :ohwell: But have no clue why I have such an aversion to meat fat.

No kidding? I love caraway seed, especially in breads.

My son has always had a problem with meat fat - he will not eat it!

I have to eat my food evenly -- a bite of this, a bite of something else, etc. Hubby eats one thing at a time on his plate and I don't like it. :lol:

Texture is a big thing for me. If it feels weird in my mouth I can't eat it.

No squeaky food! I love the taste and smell of coconut, but cannot eat it because it sqeaks. Same thing with frozen green beans.

And need it be said... oysters are nasty... :lmao:
