Your top 10 most hated foods, with a twist

[Chin Diesel]

I gotta admit...I am really starting to dislike turkey. I never buy ground turkey anymore. Chicken now. And for paninis....no turkey, chicken. And at Thanksgiving I have to smother the bird meat in gravy and I never get 2nds anymore.

Maple has been mentioned. Outside of syrup I hate maple.

Agree, too, on canteloupe/honeydew....:shudder:

I always have a tough time remembering which one is honeydew and which one is cantaloupe. One is green, one is orange. Regardless of the names, I forget which color I like and which one I don't like as much. I think I like the orange one better than the green one but it may be the other way around. I do know when I have both on my plate/bowl I like one more than the other.

Yes, I've had head cheese and haggis - I wouldn't describe either as delectable, but done right you can see why it hits for its niche.
I think all of the coconut haters are pissed about grabbing the wrong Russell Stovers candy & obviously have never had a proper macaroon (almond macaroons from The Nantucket Bake Shop are best I've ever had).

A higher end example is Fishy doesn't like veal, well don't order it at the Olive Garden where it probably isn't really veal, definitely isn't fresh & will be leathery. You order veal at a very good, old school Italian restaurant where you know they've paid thru the nose for the most innocent & tender baby calf & its not been in the freezer ever since Godzilla stepped on Bambi.

I’ve had what are supposed to be some of the best coconut macaroons around. They still suck, because shaved coconut sucks.

Not a huge fan of veal not because of texture but because of a lack of flavor. Veal is a flavor absorber so a good piece of veal with a good complementing sauce is tasty and tender but it can’t really stand on its own.
