Yes, I cannot stand cut up onions & bell peppers in my food, I find it absolutly disgusting! and I dont like spicy-hot food, a little spice is ok but not overdone...
I'm not picky as to what kind of food I like. I like most things IF it's prepared correctly and if ingredients are fresh. But I hate eating anything prepared by a lousy cook. I'm from New Orleans and I like many things that would seem unusual to those from other parts of the country. I like rabbit, frog legs, craw fish, raw oysters, alligator, racoon and many other things too numerous to mention. Just make sure the cook knows what he or she is doing because I am very picky as to how it's prepared.
I don't act like it normally because of how I just surround myself with favorites. But anyone who ever sees me eat dinner, or anything prepared by someone who doesn't know my preferences, will see how I'll normally just content myself with picking at it and taking out tiny bites of things that I think are familiar. For example, it's extremely hard for me to eat potato salad. Everything looks alike. So I'll just pick out anything that looks like a piece of egg or potato, but most of it's just tomato or onion or something, so it's extremely difficult.
I only eat high-quality, mostly organic food and am vegetarian, but I eat everything else voraciously.
I've found the people I know with food hangups are usually in a lower socio-economic group a/o have maturity issues. Again, just the picky people I've personally known; I'm not making a blanket statement.
I am an extremely picky eater. I don't eat meat, fish, geletin or animal-rennet in cheese-(vegetarian). I'm not particularly fond of some vegetables like mushrooms, not much into walnuts, cashews, etc.... I never really eat breakfast or lunch just dinner and snacks. I don't know why I'm picky, I guess I'm never really hungry and food doesn't interest me-I eat only because I have to, not because I want to.
I use to be when I was younger, but now I am far more adventurous with what I eat. I think this changed after I discovered a taste for beer, followed by curry, the rest is history.
I was when I was younger, but now I like trying all kinds of different foods. Don't always like everything, but I've had a lot of good experiences I never would have had if I'd stayed picky.
I will eat or try just about anything. I know it is not right, but I am actually a little annoyed by picky eaters. Why should I care right? I don't know, it just kind of gets under my skin a little bit.
I don't eat olives or anything squishy like squid. They make me a little nauseaus. Apart from that I eat what is served. To be honest I can't really afford to be too picky anyway.
I can be picky at times. If there's a food I've tried twice or three times and never once liked then I'll scratch that off my list of foods. And then there are ways in which food is made that I don't like. I don't like uncooked cheese I only like it melted), I can't stand tomatoes unless it's pasta sauce or ketchup. I can't stand brussel sprouts or quiche, period. And back to cheese again, I won't eat melted cheese over some Italian dish, if I get extra cheese on my ravioli or something I'll scrape it off, too much cheese.
extremely picky, and I've been that way my entire life; I think its the manifestation of some unknown anxiety. It certainly isnt rational---I was always one of those kids (and I still do this, though not to the same extreme) that if I didnt like the way it looked, I wouldnt eat it. I'm definetly NOT someobody that will try anything once, and stating that you dont like something that you havent tasted is totally neurotic. Hell, I was in my 20's before I would eat mashed potatoes because they're "mushy", and I have a wierd thing about textures, with "mushy" being the most common dislike for me.
yeah I've always had a problem with mashed potato, looked too mushy and I hated if there were any lumps. For just over 10 years I refused to eat hot chips.... I dunno why, I think I thought they tasted too much like potato or something which isn't rartional thinking considering they are made of potato....
