nuts, whipped cream, maraschino cherries, Mt. Dew, Root Beer floats (can't stand the foam), banana bread, big un-melted marshmallows, little un-squished marshmallows (I squish 'em between my fingers to get out all the air), coconut, chunky peanut butter, butterfingers, cantaloupe, honeydew, bologna, eggs, milk, egg nog (unless it's home made), butter (I like my toast dry or with jam thank you), onions, sweet pickles, relish, hot dogs (they're only bearable if they'er all beef), pork (except I like bacon and ham), frosting, sushi (can't stand the seaweed), cake and ice-cream on the same plate (ew, but I like 'em separately),cow milk, chocolate flavored yogurt, cream soda, strawberries n' cream, cream-sicles (spelling?), Strawberries dipped in chocolate (what a way to destroy a perfectly good strawberry!), fake banana flavor (like banana candy or banana Popsicles), "blue raspberry" flavoring (Raspberries are supposed to red anyway!), Italian soda's (I ask for them without the cream), chocolate chip morsels (like what you put in cookies), chocolate covered cherries, any malted beverage (like beer, or mikes hard lemonade, or whatever), malt balls, jelly beans, gummy bears (anything gummy actually, like mike n' Ike's, gum drops, sour patch kids etc. but I like gum), olives, grape juice (but not grapes), horseradish, black licorice ( I once wrote a poem about how vile I think it is! lol), corn-dogs, pork-rinds, crunchy french fries (I like 'em nice and squishy), split pea soup, canned peas, meat lovers pizza, oysters (I've tried 'em 5 different ways!), tapioca, passion fruit, jell-o with fruit in it, fruit salad with colored marshmallows, ricotta cheese, coleslaw (but I like cooked cabbage and brussel sprouts), whipped yogurt, whipped cream cheese (they're both like un-squished marshmallows), snow cone syrup (too sweet and sticky), crepes with anything sweet/in them (like strawberries, or chocolate etc. I like 'em with chicken, cheese, alfredo, spinach and mushrooms inside. :) ), Chocolate raspberry, chocolate orange, pepperoni pizza

I never realized how picky I am until someone asked this question in a group! Do any of you share any of my dislikes with me? What's your own personal list look like? Care to share? :)

I can't believe I accidentally deleted this post! I feel bad too because two people had already commented on it. Sorry ladies! I didn't mean to delete the posts with your comments! :)

Thank you for your comments ladies! Y'all reminded me of some food I forgot!

*Mmmm'K I've never created a post that's received over 900 views and 15 comments. It's not popular or anything, so if it wouldn't be too much trouble, would you mind dropping me a line and letting me know how you stumbled upon my wild food list? :) *

It a good thing you dislike most of the food posted above because its mostly junk foods. Lol. With exception to the fruits, onion, eggs, & sushi.

I didn't think I was picky at all until I moved to a new area two months ago...same county but the resturants here are just not very good. 

I'm picky I guess only because I will not touch food that I find inferior...but the same dish done well I will gobble it up. When I am in an unknown area...I google my trusted Zagat ratings. They are always spot on. I love good ethnic foods too.

I just dont like foods prepared badly or not fresh. I do not care for any oily or fried foods period. I hate mayo, heavy dressings and partially cooked eggs.  I am grossed out by those large cinnabons they sell at malls dripping with icing. I will not touch steak with fat or chicken with skin unless removed. Lol, I realized I have a disgusted face on right now just thinking about it.

I hate a lot of the same things you do: nuts, Mt. Dew, Dr. Pepper, marshmallows, coconut, bologna, milk, egg nog, fake banana flavor, malted stuff, jello, skin on turkey/chicken, potted meat, grape juice (but not real grapes,) and more stuff I can't think of now.

Wow, when I read that, I thought that was ALOT of stuff.  I think the question is what DO you eat?  LOL  This is what I can think of at the moment.  And I thought I was picky!!!

bologna, hot dogs, onions (but I love onion rings), sweet pickles (gherkins), any kind of pepper (green, yellow, red, hot, bell, greek, banana, etc.), sushi, chocolate yogurt, ANY kind of seafood including fish, shrimp, and lobster, eggnog, mushrooms, eggplant, beer, cooked carrots, horseradish, black licorice, meatloaf, sloppy joes, tuna helper, hamburger helper, liver, coffee, corndogs, porkrinds (ew), mint chocolate ice cream

There are only a few things that I like that you don't, otherwise I agree with your list.  The things I will eat are: nuts, all beef hotdogs, corndogs and meat lovers pizza.  The rest of the list goes along with what I won't eat.

Wow!! That's a lot!! I'm glad I don't cook for you, lol. The only thing that I dislike is olives (green or black). I will eat everything and anything else. Of course there are some things that I prefer to eat more than others, but I can't say I dislike those things. I have also been blessed with non-picky children. My oldest doesn't like lettuce and I haven't found a thing that my youngest won't eat.

I would MAKE LUV to a chocolate covered strawberry!!!!  They are an indulgence!  I thought I was picky but you my friend win the prize!  I hate eggs, onions, ricotta cheese, green olives and just about every condiment except ketchup.  I have an extreme hatred for ranch dressing.

Holy cow. That's a long list. I don't think I share many things off your list.  I don't like mayo, honey mustard (or anything with it on it), beets, feta cheese, uncooked tomato broccoli or cauliflower, avocado (but I'm warming up to guac) or pork in mexican food (will eat it most any other way) and coleslaw.
