I never do this. Think it's rude. If there is something I'm allergic to (cinnamon, black pepper) I just don't eat it. Otherwise, I eat what's put if front of me by someone gracious enough to invite me for dinner.

  • white clam pizza from the Modern in New Haven, CT
  • broccoli
  • field greens (aka mesclun aka "weed salad")
  • creme brulee

Dislikes:
  • artichokes
  • eggplants
  • meat-based stuffings
  • tofu
  • "meat analogues" no matter what they're made of. If they're pretending to be meat, I won't eat them. If I want meat I'll eat meat.
  • hazelnut coffee (smell nauseates me)
  • most wines (when I say I like sweet, I mean Manischewitz concord grape)
  • caviar
  • escargot (though I like the sauce)

anomalies:
I love brownie batter but I'm not very fond of cooked brownies.
I enjoy a pinch of raw ground chuck while making my meatballs every week. I grew up getting a pinch or two as a "treat" when mom made meatloaf.
I like some chopped liver, and it's the only time I will ever be able to stomach even the "idea" of consuming hard boiled egg, is when it's one of the ingredients. The smell of sulphur makes me ill so I leave the house when husband is making egg salad for himself.
LOL. Interesting list.

Me too. If I die, I die.

We would definitely not be happy during mealtime at each other's houses! I am whatever the opposite is of a seafood person.

Do you not enjoy the taste of sweets and fried food, or is it a dietary preference? I wish I wasn't drawn to sugar so much. That's probably partially genetic, too.
