There was an extremely lulzy Guardian blog today about foods that turn your stomach. I don't mean the general aversion to broccoli and sprouts (the latter of which I adore), but those everyday foods that make you gag and spit and hack. I particularly like the fierce debate on the gruesomeness of cucumbers.
The food that makes me hack would be those evil yellow things, bananas. They're just so long and sweet and mushy. They're prevalent in everything! It's quite sad. And salted peanuts. They're like [cens0red for my lovely

Which seemingly innocent foods make you want to hurl? Why? Entertain me. :p

(A lot of people really seem to dislike beans. Huh.)

Unfortunately Rem loves mushrooms (with everything - he'll turn into one!) and is constantly trying to convert me. I avoid them with the unstoppable argument that I'm on a low-residue diet, though we have an ongoing debate as to whether a fungus can be compared to a vegetable in terms of insoluble fibre content.
I also hate onions - again, I can't eat them anyway, but I never liked them because they're slimy (we have a theme). The annoying thing is how often you find them in otherwise respectable food.
Leeks - atrocious. Tesco used to do a lovely chicken and leek pie. I picked the leeks out, but their sliminess disgusted me anyway. Then Tesco added absurd amounts of pepper to the pie and RUINED it, the cochons.
I don't like it when meat has bits of gristle or fat in. ANY bits of gristle or fat. I have no tolerance for this.
Oh, and lettuce (again, a food I have an excuse to avoid) is just flappy and flat and doesn't let itself be chewed. Oddly enough I loved cabbage as a kid and I really miss it, but spinach revolts me. It's sloppy and it even SMELLS green. It's like wet grass.
