RE: CONTEST -- The One Food You Can't Stand
Just one? I am extremely sensitive to textures so there are a LOT of foods I can't stand. Probably the food whose textures bothers me the most is a mushroom. I shudder just thinking about eating one.
I am sensitive to textures too so I get it!
I went to California one time and had a grilled portabella mushroom sandwich. The shroom cap was as big as a beef patty. It tasted much better than I expected it would. I havent seen one anywhere else like that. Mushrooms are not on the top of my favorite foods but they are not near the bottem either. I can take them or leave them.
I would like to see @millennialnow eat one of those since he likes mushrooms so much. :-D
Aww @queenvick, big bummer! I say that because though I am not a huge veggie consumer, mushrooms - any and all, I just love!
It's interesting that one of the reasons I love them is BECAUSE of the "texture" and it's the texture that "shudders" you - hehe! You see, I LOVE MEAT! Mushrooms taste more "fleshy" than veggie, in my mouth anyway!
What foods do you enjoy?
My husband is a huge mushroom lover! We argue about pizza toppings a lot because he likes mushrooms but not black olives and I like black olives but not mushrooms.
It's interesting that you compare mushrooms to meat. I sometimes struggle with the texture of certain meats. I like both chicken and turkey but both can rub me the wrong way sometimes.
I love salads. And I love Mexican food. Tex-Mex too! That pretty much sums up my favorite foods.
Thanks for the reply. I feel like I've learned something about myself thanks to your meat-mushroom comparison.
This whole mushroom discussion reminded me that as a kid the only mushrooms I ate were wild morels that Mom would batter and fry. They were wonderful! Then I had those weird canned ones and the texture of those were awful. Now I like all mushrooms. Go figure.
