Also jalapeño herring. There are some foods that just shouldn't be used in fusion cooking and herring is definitely one of them.

I don't think herring should be used in *any* kind of cooking unless you are feeding a seal at SeaWorld. I'd definitely rate it among my least favorite foods. I won't touch it.

Tongue is our super special Rosh Hashana delicacy!!!
Every single person in our family, kids and adults alike adores it.
I kid you not!

Worst thing ever? I'd have to say bagels, lox and cream cheese - I usually love this as a brunch but not when the clueless hostess buys blueberry bagels and I'm expected to smile appreciatively and chow down. No, there was not one non-sweet bagel in the bunch! I still have PTSD.

I once met someone who likes cinnamon raisin bagels with tuna salad! Confused

I once mistook a container of frozen cantaloupe sorbet for a container of frozen chicken broth. Dropped it into the crock pot for shabbos. It smelled odd. But I was pregnant and everything smelled odd. DH didn't mention it smelled odd. So I served us steaming hot bowls of cantaloupe sorbet. AWFUL! It took me a couple minutes to figure out what the heck I had just served. I want to hurl just thinking about it.

this just made me lol!!

I actually like almost all foods except for canned tuna and persimmons. I recognize that they are not gross foods, but I literally will start gagging before I can even get them close to my mouth. Fortunately, it's pretty easy to avoid them.

Calf foot jelly. Like eating snot.
If you were to ask my sister the worst thing she ever ate she would say cat food.....sadly I fed it to her when we were small. She ate it!

The worst Thing I ever DRANK was coffee with salt instead of sugar- you can't imagine how awful that is

I once accidentally put baking soda in a cake instead of baking powder. I offered a piece to a guest who ate it without complaint.
I later tasted it and gagged! It was AWFUL!

Boiled lamb's head one Rosh Hashana. Shaking

Funny how so many people dislike foods I love. Rose water flavored anything...yum! Marzipan...yum, yum! Even herring...yum!

My dh once surprised me with a cup of coffee in bed one morning. It was not sweet so I though that he just forgot the sugar. Later I asked him if he put sugar in it and said he did and pointed to the "sugar". I realized that he poured in salt. Funny that it did't taste salty, just not sweet.

I once ate kasha and thought that it tasted terrible.

I stay away from anything I think I won't like ... call me peculiar

the one thing I have tried that I cannot comprehend people eating are mushrooms ... it feels like you're biting into an eyeball
