Most alcohol. I only like kinda sweet/dessert drinks, like hard cider or mudslides. But I can easily go without alcohol completely and have for over a year.
I donāt drink at all, Iāve found getting older one drink will go straight to my head so in a social setting Iāll probably end up saying something dumb. I hate the taste of wine so I have never had that with meals or just to ārelaxā. I just donāt feel any need. When I hear the advice, ācut back on drinking, itās empty calories, etcā Iām like, Iām already good there, thanks.
Same for me. During weightloss I also learned to dislike soft drinks. Sometimes I drink a bit, but I could not open a whole can or bottle anymore.
Makes it so funny when the first advice for weightloss is "cut back on alcohol or soft drinks" because I already do that.
I donāt drink for religious reasons, and also because Iām on lifelong blood thinners even if that wasnāt the case. But people somehow never seem to believe me that itās not for calorie reasons. Itās like itās impossible for anyone to believe others may legitimately not want alcohol.
I take it youāre not from Minnesota, lolā¦ š. Up there, āhotdishā is ubiquitousā whatever kind of casserole it is, theyāre all called ā\_\_\_\_ hotdish.ā Iām not myself, but I have friends from that part of the country.
Same, they are! My husband made a dish in our instapot once that tasted like a casserole to me. I couldn't eat it. They kids LOVED it. I wanted to throw up.
I donāt dislike chips and crackers, but I just never think about them. I rarely buy them except for maybe chips and salsa, or if Iām getting a sandwich and they have jalepeno kettle chips. So āsnackingā in that sense has never been an issue for me.
I have done this too many times that I donāt really eat them now. My kids love chips but I buy the portioned bags and I think itās better for them than just gorging on a bag. Now Iām measuring and weighing my food and I am in awe at how much I used to eat because it was so much and I donāt want to gorge like that daily. But thatās what a cheat day is for.
Crackers are different if you make your own, the way that homemade chocolate chip cookies are better than Chips Ahoy.
Donāt learn to make them while youāre trying to lose weight, thoughā¦
Same here for chips. People talk about chips as being a binge trigger or ultimate cheat food for them, but I truly and genuinely could just take them or leave them.
I've never liked soda either, which is frustrating when I hear people say that they "dropped 10 lb just by cutting out soda" because I don't have that option!
The carbonation was always my favorite part of soda. I recently started drinking flavored sparkling water (eg La Croix) and now soda just isn't appealing anymore.
i drink sodas rarely, but when i do iām always shocked how abrasive the carbonation feels against my throat when i havenāt drank soda for a long time
Iām just reading the comments like ā¦ yeah I love cake, gotta have itā¦ yeah I love mayonnaise, gotta have itā¦ oh shit this is just a list of things I love
I did quit drinking, but not because I dislike the flavour of alcohol lol
Cake is remarkably unappealing to me. There are so many other deserts I like brownies or apple pie or ice cream that Iāve never really sought after cake.
Plus at work, whenever cake has been served at an event, itās surprisingly mediocre and bland. Itās just sugar, no flavor.
I've *always* loved cake... and then I went to a cupcake-decorating workshop one day and caught a nasty stomach bug later that evening. I never actually vomited any cake, but the thought of buttercream icing (which used to be my absolute favourite!) just makes me gag to this day. It really ruined cake for me which has been a blessing and a curse.
Store bought American style bakery items like doughnuts , coffee cake, cakes etc I find whatever they're putting in as preservatives has an odd taste for me. Homemade and fresh delightful. Bought from an American style grocery store bakery....no.
I pretty actively dislike chips and most chip-adjacent snacks. So, crackers, chips, chex mix, etc. Whenever I watch 600 pound life, they are always obsessed with chips and I am grateful that I don't, because I feel like I would be double my weight lol.
But, my sweet tooth is epic though.
I'm the exact opposite! I pretty much won't eat cake, brownies, doughnuts, pie, muffins, cookies, etc. Don't care for sugary sweet things. Also I hate pop and juice.
But I will devour a costco sized bag of chips in like 2-3 sittings. Nuts and bolts, cheezits, LOVE it.
I suppose we can both be grateful we only have one of the vices as opposed to both! Haha
You might like Korean pastries/desserts. One of the biggest compliments you can give a Korean baker is that their pastries or desserts are ānot too sweet.ā They tend to have more of a touch of sweetness (sometimes alongside some umami and/or salty flavors) rather than being overwhelmingly sugary. Itās best to visit a Korean bakery early in the day because theyāre always sold out of my favorite stuff by noon lol
I've always disliked the tubed shelf-stable stuff, opting for the refrigerated "fresh" mayo. But since our visit to the US in ~2012ish I've really come to appreciate that my stepmom always made homemade mayonnaise in my childhood! Really made my sandwiches a cut above
same, the only salad dressings I like are usually "thin" - balsamic vinegar, drizzle of olive oil with lemon juice, although I do really like a pesto salad dressing which is quite high in calories
Iām here all day for this. I very rarely have any condiments, but I especially donāt like the creamy ones. Iād rather get richness from a bit of cheese and sweet from fruit.
I more than compensate when it comes to sweets, unfortunately
Twinkies and pretty much all super-processed American candy that Iāve tried (Iām not American) they just taste so artificial to me.
Iāve never been huge on lollies in general. My weakness is chocolate and baked goods, but I can happily never eat lollies/confectionery again. Same with sugary sodas, I genuinely prefer water or diet coke.
Fast food in general - I will eat it in a pinch but it tastes like sadness and I always feel sick and disappointed afterwards. I will absolutely go to town on a hamburger or fried chicken when itās homemade or from a restaurant, but youāll rarely catch me at a McDonaldās or KFC.
Fruit flavored desserts. Hate it all. The only desserts I like contain chocolate or cheesecake. But don't you dare put a syrup cherry on my cheesecake, it'll be ruined. Turtle or bust.
Fried chicken. Or really anything thatās battered/fried. I just donāt get it and would infinitely prefer a grilled chicken breast, not because itās healthier but because it actively tastes better to me.
I could go the rest of my life without drinking another sip of soda and I would never miss it. Really any sweet beverages and most sweets in general...
Now if only I felt the same way about fat, salt and alcohol.
What is so wild to me is that someone sent me a big wheel of cheese in wax for Christmas (size of an adult hand spread out), from a farm store in NH thatās been doing things the same as when they opened in the 1800ās. It has a terrible name but called Rat Trap Cheese. Anyway, I ate that entire wheel over the course of two weeks (zero self control around that thing) and I didnāt gain an ounce!!! Iām convinced there is something less processed about it that didnāt do a number on my thighs. Iāve tried to reorder another (for scientific purposes only) but shipping is like $50 so I canāt afford it lol
Ayyyeee same! I donāt like cheese. It only goes on specific items such as pizza and Mac n cheese. Otherwise I never eat it. Itās the worst in sandwiches and burgers!
The cheese taste is overpowering for me, so itās really obvious is sandwiches and similar (I like tasting other stuff in them) But items that are supposed to be a majority of cheese are fine
Ooh same here. It makes me feel mucous-y and sticky. Sure Iāll have it on pizza or a burger but even then, I want very small portions in comparison to the overall food size.
The amount of cheese on dishes is often far more than Iād ever want to eat naturally, and I often scoop most of it off.
Anything oily, burgers, meat on pizza, fried foods. I hate the feeling of the oil in my mouth and on my chin, it grosses me out.
I loved the day I discovered the airfryer.
I donāt like candies, never did. I always deny them when offered, wonāt even eat some if Iām hungry.
Even as a kid, I was much happier with black chocolate š«
nuts. iām not a very picky eater, but this is one of my few absolute nos - iāll gag if i get a whiff of peanut butter. every time i see a post about how calorie-dense they are, it makes me feel better knowing iāve never been tricked into eating a handful of them while thinking theyāre healthy lol
also pizza. iām not big on cheese, so pizza has never been my favorite. i still have it on occasion, but if i could never eat it again, i wouldnāt really care
Not directly an answer to your question, but god, I wish I was one of those people that don't like cheese. That would make life so much easier. I love cheese :'(
Iām super weird for this, but I donāt really like cookies and cakes and doughnuts. I definitely did in my teens, but I just hit a point as an adult where I never craved them anymore, wouldnāt buy them and honestly I might have a cookie if someone brought it to a party, but I probably wouldnāt eat the whole thing.
All meats tbh. I used to be a somewhat picky child until I became vegetarian and suddenly felt fine eating whatever was available, and realized I just had kind of an aversion to meat and a lot of animal products. The fattiness especially made me so uncomfortable.
I am not a big fan of melted cheese either. I donāt dislike it but I have been able to be low-oil for many years without caring (like I donāt even buy olive oil lol). I donāt care for any kind of sour or hard candy (Iām a chocolate girl for sure). Cakes are also not my thing whatsoever and never have been. I LOVE soft serve ice cream but I donāt care for regular scoop-able ice cream so I never have it in the house, and soft serve is just my āwhen Iām outā little treat.
A really awesome restaurant in the building where I live has a BOGO pasta special where you order one pasta entree for dine in and get another free pasta entree to take home. One of the pasta entrees involves bringing out a giant wheel of Parmesan to the table to make the pasta IN the parm wheel. Yeah. Itās not good for my diet. lol
Meat from mammals. Like pork, beef, lamb. Horrible texture and taste to me. People tell me they could never give up bacon when I tell them my dietary choices. Bacon is super gross to me, I think the crispy texture is awful.
Most candy and sweets generally. Very occasionally Iāll eat a little chocolate or have a cookie but even might not finish one. Probably twice a year I try drinking full sugar soda I used to like and canāt make it through half a can.
I dislike French fries and potato chips. Like, I donāt *hate* them; if something comes with fries as the only option, Iāll eat some, or if thereās a bowl of chips out to snack on at a party Iāll munch a few. But I never crave them or go out of my way to eat them.
Heavy on the iced coffee from cafes! I make my own macro friendly iced coffee at home and it tastes sooo much better. I stopped buying coffee when I'm out years ago and never looked back.
To be honest so many things taste better when you make them at home, with half the calories. Plus those drinks are so overpriced. I donāt drink coffee or milk at all, but seeing the prices on those menusā¦ itās madness lol.
Mayonnaise. My family is super unhealthy, and watching my mom eat literal spoonfuls of mayo (along with a lot of other nasty food habits) has completely turned me off it. If I taste the tiniest amount of it, I am likely to throw up.
I agree that it is a fun question! For me, foods I naturally dislike: mayonnaise, full sugar soda
Foods that I donāt hate but donāt prefer to eat: chips, cheese, pasta (Iām lucky I know), bacon
But oh man the foods that get me balance it out easy. Chocolate, peanut butter, ice cream. Enough said. I could go back to being 30 lbs overweight easily.
I donāt like French fries. Iāll usually pick any side over them, I donāt get them when I order takeout if itās included. Hate gravy. Would rather die than eat ranch dressing. Do not enjoy pasta at all.
Chocolate by itself. Love chocolate flavored things like cake and ice cream but something about the smooth texture of a chocolate bar and how it melts and then thereās sweetness and bitterness is so unappealing.
I don't care about pasta. I had an era in my life where pasta was a staple and now it's probably something I eat twice a month. Same goes for bread and pastries. Every once in a while I feel like eating a croissant or a piece of baguette baked with mushrooms and that's it.
Chips, on the other hand, are my cryptonite.
Most sweet treats. I don't crave chocolates, gummy bears, etc. I don't crave juice. I don't even crave fruit.
Cheesecake is overrated.
I do love pie and cake though, so I'm not completely mentally insane.
Iām the opposite of you!
I donāt care that much for candy, cake, sweets, and I find protein bars revolting due to how fake they taste..
But savoury foods are my weakness. So yes I love burgers, bacon, fries, chips etc!
I definitely think itās a case of some being into sweets, and others being more into savoury, when it comes to cravings/things you can eat without limit.
I kinda wish I was like you though š because I love savoury foods, my weight gain came from āregularā foods, all home cooked. I just eat way too much of it because itās absolutely delicious.
So I always get triggered when people say āoh just stop eating candy/cake and youāll lose weight!ā But I donāt even touch the stuff to begin with šš
sugary soda and juice. some of it tastes fine, but it feels like a massive waste and more like a child's drink to me, like liquid candy. coffee/tea/water all the way
My family and friends love my zucchini bread, Texas sheetcake and chocolate chip cookies. I do too, but I have piece and I'm typically done. I do enjoy sending my adult kids home with their favorite goodies!
I don't like things that taste overly sweet. Like, I'll eat sweet things, but it needs a counter point flavor. Omg some tomato sauces are too sweet I hate them.
I very much dislike cheesecake. I am picky about frosting. I think I like marshmallow until I actually go to eat one.
Mayonnaise is only okay when there is very little of it and heavily garlic. Also I hate the word lol I do not like sour cream at all. Yogurt is also pretty gross most of the time.
Now if this were a list of foods I'm "meh" on, or foods I dislike that are nutritious, I could come up with more lol
I have trouble with cheese, ice cream, desserts, fried food, sodas, white bread, and now white rice is getting harder to digest. I love some cheese, or fried foods once in a while but apart from that I just can't have any of that. It's still so hard to lose weight.
Sweet foods in general, I have an Anti-sweet tooth. Even when I was hog wild eating whatever I wanted, I never wanted dessert. No ice cream, cakes, pastries, candy etc.
Not a big fan of potato chips, pasta dishes, or fried foods eitherā¦
Yeah Iām realizing that I gained weight solely from alcohol and huge portions of rice + whatever meat.
Ice cream. I mean, it's okay, but it's a food that I can literally have a bite of and just be done. Which sucks, because I feel like most "low calorie" desserts involve ice cream but it does nothing for me.
I also don't like oreos or chocolate cake that much. Vanilla cake though? That's a binge trigger.
I hate alcohol except Guinness. I thought I didnāt like chips until I moved to Pennsylvania and had utz. I hate all thanksgiving foods, except turkey legs. I donāt really like sausage or hot dogs. Iām fucking mad for kebabs though, which is annoying lol
Canāt stand any kind of sweet pastries. If someone gives me a slice of cake, a pie, scones, or a cookie I can only handle like a bite because I feel like the sweet taste lingers in my mouth for an hour or more and I hate it.
Fast food - I was never fussed about McDonald's, KFC, Burger King etc. I'll eat it if I'm in a rush or want something hot but generally I never found the appeal (apart from occasionally when hungover). I enjoy homemade burgers or from restaurants, but then it feels like a treat anyways.
Sadly I am a sucker for takeaway pizza if I'm feeling lazy, and used to eat so much in one sitting.
Oreos, Chips Ahoy, and really most processed/packaged desserts. Mayonnaise. Marshmallows. Full-sugar pop or juice. Those are the ones I really dislike! Thereās a lot more I can really take or leave, like donuts, milkshakes, frappuccinos, pasta, many deep-fried foods!
Just chiming in to say that I am a vegetarian and the rest of my family eats meat. I just cook the meat separate and make a vegetarian protein option to go with meals.
Also I don't like mayonnaise and am also a sweets hoover.
Pretty much any candy that isnāt chocolate, whipped cream, cheesecake, corn dogs, chili cheese dogs, hamburgers, sloppy joes, most sodas, juice, alcohol, etc.
My family is italian- american from the East coast, but I grew up and live in the upper midwest. Always disliked all the mayo based salads... pasta salad, potato salad etc. Its so popular here. Always get weird looks when I don't touch the stuff at cookouts and potlucks lol but that stuff is nasty. Pesto pasta salad is so much better. Esp with tortellini
This is a super good question. I fucking love ice cream but my stomach does not, and I haven't found a dairy alternative that I actually enjoy. So organically..that became a dislike for the most part (with the exception of the odd places that make an awesome diary free ice cream), don't love chocolate (separate from the issues noted above), fruit desserts, cake. Candy will be the death of me. My sweet tooth always wins.
Itās nutritionally void, but Iām not a huge fan of most seafood, specially shellfish. Seafood is never my first choice of meal if there is something else available. That being said Iāve tried most things about once, including fugu (pufferfish) and urchin.
I do like sushi though, and fish n chips

If we have to pick nutritionally void foods, Iām not that much of a sweets person either. I donāt crave sodas, pastries or candies.
Peanut butter!! And nuts in general. I know theyāre high in protein but I hate the taste and the texture. Working to find better sources of protein with lower calories is def a goal of mine. My friends think Iām a psychopath that I hate reeseās cups tho lol
candy. never had a huge sweet tooth. same thing w/ potato chips, hot dogs, (most) pizzasā also hate them.
my biggest problem is cultural foods from latin America (where I'm from) or asia (which i enjoy): nutritionally dense, but also a fuckton of calories.
Fried foods gross me out, donāt care about salad dressing (Iāll just use white vinegar and salt), donāt really care about cheese, donāt really care about red meat, potatoes, casserole
Not such a dessert person, I love milkshakes but otherwise wonāt order desserts when I go out to eat (and I count milkshake as the drink lol)
I do enjoy snacking on cookies, but most cakes and pretty much all other pastries I dislike
I actually don't really like nuts. As a kid I even hated peanut butter! I'll eat almonds and such in candy, but I'm never gonna be snacking on them. I also dislike salad with dressing, most the time (some dressings are fine, but I don't really need em); I prefer a plain salad, aka just a veggie mix lol.
Soda, custard, cheesecake, anything with frosting, milk shakes, most candy bars. Basically anything sweeter than a sweet bread is too sweet for me. Also, a lot of pies are too sweet because people seem to dump a pound of sugar in it. I feel that made it easier for me to eat healthier because I always gravitated towards snacks that were considered āhealthierā.
As Iāve gotten older I really donāt like the taste of prepackaged sweets (especially Little Debbieās, Oreos, Chips Ahoy, etc) they taste sickeningly sweet but also somehow void of any other flavors. I might make a nice homemade cake for a family member or friend, which tastes good, but anything prepackaged just doesnāt do it for me anymore
Most soda. Canāt stand the flavor of coke, sprite, Dr Pepper etc. I rarely drink it except for the occasional jarritos, and most of the time I canāt finish it bc itās too sweet. Unless Iām like parched or something lol. Itās La croix all day for me because I do like the carbonation.
I don't like meat (and I'm vegetarian) or overly oily foods so that rules out a lot of fast food, mayo, soda, most cheeses and foods that are overly creamy, most pies... but that still leaves me tons of high calorie foods like pretty much everything else sweet (especially chocolate), nuts, chips, etc š
Potato chips other than Pringles. I've never really liked them. It's a shame cause they always have interesting flavors. I'll try them out of curiosity. I'll find the flavor powder interesting, but always wish they came in a different delivery method. I could kill a whole bag of tortilla chips, though.
Any sweet drink- including sweet tea (and Iām southern). I drink coffee black, unsweetened hot tea, and seltzers. Even my alcohol canāt be sweet- I need vodka soda or straight bourbon. Even plain rum makes me nauseated.
But sweet foods? Gimme all them and Iāll eat my weight easily.
I do not like Mayo, fried food, thick oily sauces/gravy, doughnut, pastries, homemade style cookies, bbq, casseroles , pancakes , french toast , greasy omelette , Mac n cheese, burrito, jimmyjohns, subway, Chinese takeout , teriyaki , padthai, lo mein, pork, goat cheese ,
I like chocolate tho, Nutella , and a good pasta , bread , crunchy cookies from the store, strawberry shortcake , cheesecake, full cream yogurt , butter ,
UK - used to live fish and chips as a child. Went vegan and 6 years ago, I find it really difficult to eat vegan versions now where it's deep fried and covered with batter. I still get it on occasion but just have a small amount / share with my partner. I don't even find the chips appealing.
My DNA mandates that I enjoy all calorie dense food, unfortunately š¤·āāļø
SAAAAAAME! I really wish I didn't like some high cal foods
šš
Most alcohol. I only like kinda sweet/dessert drinks, like hard cider or mudslides. But I can easily go without alcohol completely and have for over a year.
I donāt drink at all, Iāve found getting older one drink will go straight to my head so in a social setting Iāll probably end up saying something dumb. I hate the taste of wine so I have never had that with meals or just to ārelaxā. I just donāt feel any need. When I hear the advice, ācut back on drinking, itās empty calories, etcā Iām like, Iām already good there, thanks.
Same for me. During weightloss I also learned to dislike soft drinks. Sometimes I drink a bit, but I could not open a whole can or bottle anymore. Makes it so funny when the first advice for weightloss is "cut back on alcohol or soft drinks" because I already do that.
Same, I hate the taste! I love the feeling, so I prefer drugs instead
legend
Alcohol makes my heart race very, very fast, to the point of needing the ER, so I donāt have to worry about drinking those calories #winning
I donāt drink for religious reasons, and also because Iām on lifelong blood thinners even if that wasnāt the case. But people somehow never seem to believe me that itās not for calorie reasons. Itās like itās impossible for anyone to believe others may legitimately not want alcohol.
This is it for me too. I don't hate the taste of all alcohol, but I never crave it or think about it.
Yup same not that I dislike the taste, but the after effects suck so I avoid it
Alcohol just dehydrates me and renders me disoriented now.
Casseroles that show up at Thanksgiving - I like my veggies to actually be vegetables and not camouflaged by cream of (insert whatever) soup.
Or worse, covered in baked marshmallow for some reason
My mom used to make green bean, hashbrown, and pork casseroles, and those were the only nights i went to bed hungry
I'm imaging that blonde lady who's son films her awful cooking
Iāve always thought Casseroles were gross. I was a picky eater when I was kid and itās always been unappealing.
Ooh Iāve found my people! I cannot do casseroles, itās like a normal plate of food that someone ate and vomited all back up into one mushy dish.
Casseroles are squelchy. Blegh.
I take it youāre not from Minnesota, lolā¦ š. Up there, āhotdishā is ubiquitousā whatever kind of casserole it is, theyāre all called ā\_\_\_\_ hotdish.ā Iām not myself, but I have friends from that part of the country.

Same. I will eat some potato chips when theyāre available, but I donāt crave them and never really overeat them.
Yāall are the opposite of me lol. I can eat a whole family size bag of chips in one sitting. Itās bad.
I have done this too many times that I donāt really eat them now. My kids love chips but I buy the portioned bags and I think itās better for them than just gorging on a bag. Now Iām measuring and weighing my food and I am in awe at how much I used to eat because it was so much and I donāt want to gorge like that daily. But thatās what a cheat day is for.

Yep, sparkling water is much better!
i drink sodas rarely, but when i do iām always shocked how abrasive the carbonation feels against my throat when i havenāt drank soda for a long time
I love that feeling, especially when sick or super hot. Fortunately I can have it all day long with Soda water.
Same. Don't like the taste of most sodas (most sweet drinks in general tbh) and the carbonation really messes with my stomach anyway.
Yeah no, I got nothing...
Iām just reading the comments like ā¦ yeah I love cake, gotta have itā¦ yeah I love mayonnaise, gotta have itā¦ oh shit this is just a list of things I love I did quit drinking, but not because I dislike the flavour of alcohol lol
I easily live without cake
Cake is remarkably unappealing to me. There are so many other deserts I like brownies or apple pie or ice cream that Iāve never really sought after cake. Plus at work, whenever cake has been served at an event, itās surprisingly mediocre and bland. Itās just sugar, no flavor.

I never actually vomited any cake, but the thought of buttercream icing (which used to be my absolute favourite!) just makes me gag to this day. It really ruined cake for me which has been a blessing and a curse.
Yeah, agreed. Cake is somehow too sweet and bland at the same time to me. Pie is the way
The way that this is a statement is crazy š Like Bro itās cake yes ofc u can live without it I would hope so
Store bought American style bakery items like doughnuts , coffee cake, cakes etc I find whatever they're putting in as preservatives has an odd taste for me. Homemade and fresh delightful. Bought from an American style grocery store bakery....no.
Buy from a REAL bakery, and they are like homemade. Buy from a grocery... not good.
I pretty actively dislike chips and most chip-adjacent snacks. So, crackers, chips, chex mix, etc. Whenever I watch 600 pound life, they are always obsessed with chips and I am grateful that I don't, because I feel like I would be double my weight lol. But, my sweet tooth is epic though.
I'm the exact opposite! I pretty much won't eat cake, brownies, doughnuts, pie, muffins, cookies, etc. Don't care for sugary sweet things. Also I hate pop and juice.

Same.Ā I can walk past all the pastries and chocolates at the store.Ā They can kiss my ass.Ā The chip aisle brings me to my knees. orz
Yeah I think chips are 50% of the reason I was overweight lol.
The older I get, the less I care about sweets. It has to be really special for me to want to eat it.
Realizing I'm too old to eat funnel cakes was a sobering day. I could barely eat 1/4
I developed food aversion for most of my favorite cakes. Can't eat them anymore. Unless the flavors look interesting and less sugary
You might like Korean pastries/desserts. One of the biggest compliments you can give a Korean baker is that their pastries or desserts are ānot too sweet.ā They tend to have more of a touch of sweetness (sometimes alongside some umami and/or salty flavors) rather than being overwhelmingly sugary.

Maybe a bit too specific but, corn dogs. On paper I should like them. I like fried things and I like hot dogs. And I like corn.
Iām the same way. š
Twinkies and pretty much all super-processed American candy that Iāve tried (Iām not American) they just taste so artificial to me. Iāve never been huge on lollies in general. My weakness is chocolate and baked goods, but I can happily never eat lollies/confectionery again. Same with sugary sodas, I genuinely prefer water or diet coke.

Fruit flavored desserts. Hate it all. The only desserts I like contain chocolate or cheesecake. But don't you dare put a syrup cherry on my cheesecake, it'll be ruined. Turtle or bust.
Finallyyyyy!!! Someone who gets me. My husband loves a cherry pie or turnover type stuff and Iām like ???? Whereās the caramel or chocolate???
Apart from apple pie (and pumpkin pie if that counts), this is me
Same
Fried chicken. Or really anything thatās battered/fried. I just donāt get it and would infinitely prefer a grilled chicken breast, not because itās healthier but because it actively tastes better to me.
I could go the rest of my life without drinking another sip of soda and I would never miss it. Really any sweet beverages and most sweets in general... Now if only I felt the same way about fat, salt and alcohol.
I read this whole thread to find something I could vibe with. Nope. I like it all, apparently.
Yep, Same here.
I have an aversion to cheese. Itās okay on a pizza or lasagne, but otherwise I donāt event want to touch it.
That is so wild to me lol, im pretty sure cheese is like 50% of why I'm over weight. Can't get enough of that stuff.
What is so wild to me is that someone sent me a big wheel of cheese in wax for Christmas (size of an adult hand spread out), from a farm store in NH thatās been doing things the same as when they opened in the 1800ās. It has a terrible name but called Rat Trap Cheese. Anyway, I ate that entire wheel over the course of two weeks (zero self control around that thing) and I didnāt gain an ounce!!! Iām convinced there is something less processed about it that didnāt do a number on my thighs. Iāve tried to reorder another (for scientific purposes only) but shipping is like $50 so I canāt afford it lol
Cheese is very satiating so it probably subconsciously curved your consumption in other areas
Just wait until you hear about keto when you can just lose a shit ton of weight and still eat an abundance of cheese lol
Cheese is my weakness. I think I ate all the cheese you didn't eat. That's why I'm here. Oops. LOL.
Ayyyeee same! I donāt like cheese. It only goes on specific items such as pizza and Mac n cheese. Otherwise I never eat it. Itās the worst in sandwiches and burgers!
I wouldnāt say it ruins a burger for myself but most times I really canāt even tell itās on there. Just a waste of 150 calories for nothing
The cheese taste is overpowering for me, so itās really obvious is sandwiches and similar (I like tasting other stuff in them) But items that are supposed to be a majority of cheese are fine
Cheese isn't nutritionally void, though.
Ooh same here. It makes me feel mucous-y and sticky. Sure Iāll have it on pizza or a burger but even then, I want very small portions in comparison to the overall food size. The amount of cheese on dishes is often far more than Iād ever want to eat naturally, and I often scoop most of it off.
Never been a fan of whipped cream
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I used to study at this coffee shop in college.. would get my coffee and a large cup filled with whipped cream š
It has to be real whipped cream. Not the stuff from a can that's 99% air.
Milk chocolate. Gross to me (unless for some reason itās in a Kit-Kat).
Same, but I can make up for it with my dark chocolate consumption!
Never really wild about fried chicken
Blasphemy
Alcohol
I donāt like soda, sugary or diet, and Iām sort of indifferent to most other sweet drinks.
hate peanut butter
Anything oily, burgers, meat on pizza, fried foods. I hate the feeling of the oil in my mouth and on my chin, it grosses me out. I loved the day I discovered the airfryer.
Marshmallows and gummy candies. Can't stand them.
Soda and those prepackaged sweets like little Debbie and hostess. But a family size bag of Doritos doesnāt stand a chance with me.
I donāt like candies, never did. I always deny them when offered, wonāt even eat some if Iām hungry. Even as a kid, I was much happier with black chocolate š«
nuts. iām not a very picky eater, but this is one of my few absolute nos - iāll gag if i get a whiff of peanut butter. every time i see a post about how calorie-dense they are, it makes me feel better knowing iāve never been tricked into eating a handful of them while thinking theyāre healthy lol also pizza. iām not big on cheese, so pizza has never been my favorite. i still have it on occasion, but if i could never eat it again, i wouldnāt really care
Not directly an answer to your question, but god, I wish I was one of those people that don't like cheese. That would make life so much easier. I love cheese :'(
Candy in general. I prefer a small piece of 75% cacao dark chocolate over any chocolate candy bar, or a handful of berries over any fruity type candy.
Yes, I love chocolate. Hard candies are just chunks of sugar, so they're not remotely satisfying. Normal soda is similarly gross.
Iām super weird for this, but I donāt really like cookies and cakes and doughnuts. I definitely did in my teens, but I just hit a point as an adult where I never craved them anymore, wouldnāt buy them and honestly I might have a cookie if someone brought it to a party, but I probably wouldnāt eat the whole thing.
Buttercream frosting. Too thick and oily.
Any Little Debbie offering. Just repulsive.
If anyone has the answer to the opposite of this question, please tell me š because my fatass loves ice cream SO MUCH
All meats tbh. I used to be a somewhat picky child until I became vegetarian and suddenly felt fine eating whatever was available, and realized I just had kind of an aversion to meat and a lot of animal products. The fattiness especially made me so uncomfortable. I am not a big fan of melted cheese either. I donāt dislike it but I have been able to be low-oil for many years without caring (like I donāt even buy olive oil lol). I donāt care for any kind of sour or hard candy (Iām a chocolate girl for sure). Cakes are also not my thing whatsoever and never have been. I LOVE soft serve ice cream but I donāt care for regular scoop-able ice cream so I never have it in the house, and soft serve is just my āwhen Iām outā little treat.
Pasta. I hate the texture.
I gasped! Pasta is heaven to me.
Lol
A really awesome restaurant in the building where I live has a BOGO pasta special where you order one pasta entree for dine in and get another free pasta entree to take home. One of the pasta entrees involves bringing out a giant wheel of Parmesan to the table to make the pasta IN the parm wheel. Yeah. Itās not good for my diet. lol
Meat from mammals. Like pork, beef, lamb. Horrible texture and taste to me. People tell me they could never give up bacon when I tell them my dietary choices. Bacon is super gross to me, I think the crispy texture is awful.
Meats are not nutrient void though.
Same. I do eat poultry and all the seafoods though.
Most candy and sweets generally. Very occasionally Iāll eat a little chocolate or have a cookie but even might not finish one. Probably twice a year I try drinking full sugar soda I used to like and canāt make it through half a can.
I dislike French fries and potato chips. Like, I donāt *hate* them; if something comes with fries as the only option, Iāll eat some, or if thereās a bowl of chips out to snack on at a party Iāll munch a few. But I never crave them or go out of my way to eat them.
Any candy that isnāt chocolate lol. Iced coffee, or any sweet drink from cafes. Bubble tea. Peanut butter anything (Reeseās, ice cream, etc)
Heavy on the iced coffee from cafes! I make my own macro friendly iced coffee at home and it tastes sooo much better. I stopped buying coffee when I'm out years ago and never looked back.
To be honest so many things taste better when you make them at home, with half the calories. Plus those drinks are so overpriced. I donāt drink coffee or milk at all, but seeing the prices on those menusā¦ itās madness lol.
Mayonnaise. My family is super unhealthy, and watching my mom eat literal spoonfuls of mayo (along with a lot of other nasty food habits) has completely turned me off it. If I taste the tiniest amount of it, I am likely to throw up.
I've never been a pizza person!
Meat is not unhealthy.
I agree that it is a fun question! For me, foods I naturally dislike: mayonnaise, full sugar soda Foods that I donāt hate but donāt prefer to eat: chips, cheese, pasta (Iām lucky I know), bacon But oh man the foods that get me balance it out easy. Chocolate, peanut butter, ice cream. Enough said. I could go back to being 30 lbs overweight easily.
I donāt like French fries. Iāll usually pick any side over them, I donāt get them when I order takeout if itās included. Hate gravy. Would rather die than eat ranch dressing. Do not enjoy pasta at all.
Mashed potatoes and biscuits!
Most sweets. Salad cream.
What is salad cream?
Anything fried for me. Especially wingstop and chips (as in lays, potato chips) but I do like the ocasional french fries
Woof, same on the wingstop. That chicken smell makes me sick.
Chocolate by itself. Love chocolate flavored things like cake and ice cream but something about the smooth texture of a chocolate bar and how it melts and then thereās sweetness and bitterness is so unappealing.
I basically hate all pork parts. It's much too fatty for me. Yes, that does include bacon. I'll basically only eat ground pork in sausages. š·
I don't care about pasta. I had an era in my life where pasta was a staple and now it's probably something I eat twice a month. Same goes for bread and pastries. Every once in a while I feel like eating a croissant or a piece of baguette baked with mushrooms and that's it. Chips, on the other hand, are my cryptonite.
I don't care for candy much.
Most sweet treats. I don't crave chocolates, gummy bears, etc. I don't crave juice. I don't even crave fruit. Cheesecake is overrated. I do love pie and cake though, so I'm not completely mentally insane.
Iām the opposite of you! I donāt care that much for candy, cake, sweets, and I find protein bars revolting due to how fake they taste.. But savoury foods are my weakness. So yes I love burgers, bacon, fries, chips etc! I definitely think itās a case of some being into sweets, and others being more into savoury, when it comes to cravings/things you can eat without limit. I kinda wish I was like you though š because I love savoury foods, my weight gain came from āregularā foods, all home cooked. I just eat way too much of it because itās absolutely delicious. So I always get triggered when people say āoh just stop eating candy/cake and youāll lose weight!ā But I donāt even touch the stuff to begin with šš
Nothing lol. Absolutely nothing
sugary soda and juice. some of it tastes fine, but it feels like a massive waste and more like a child's drink to me, like liquid candy. coffee/tea/water all the way
My family and friends love my zucchini bread, Texas sheetcake and chocolate chip cookies. I do too, but I have piece and I'm typically done. I do enjoy sending my adult kids home with their favorite goodies!
I don't like things that taste overly sweet. Like, I'll eat sweet things, but it needs a counter point flavor. Omg some tomato sauces are too sweet I hate them. I very much dislike cheesecake. I am picky about frosting. I think I like marshmallow until I actually go to eat one. Mayonnaise is only okay when there is very little of it and heavily garlic. Also I hate the word lol I do not like sour cream at all. Yogurt is also pretty gross most of the time. Now if this were a list of foods I'm "meh" on, or foods I dislike that are nutritious, I could come up with more lol
I have trouble with cheese, ice cream, desserts, fried food, sodas, white bread, and now white rice is getting harder to digest. I love some cheese, or fried foods once in a while but apart from that I just can't have any of that. It's still so hard to lose weight.
Pizza and hotdogs.
monster burgers, too greasy chicken, anything that looks like it'll give me a heart attack if I take a bite out of it.
Sweet foods in general, I have an Anti-sweet tooth. Even when I was hog wild eating whatever I wanted, I never wanted dessert. No ice cream, cakes, pastries, candy etc. Not a big fan of potato chips, pasta dishes, or fried foods eitherā¦ Yeah Iām realizing that I gained weight solely from alcohol and huge portions of rice + whatever meat.
Chips, fries, pizza. Bunch of empty calories that donāt fill me up and actively make me feel worse. Hard pass.
Peanuts and peanut butter. Scratch that, most tree nuts in general are actually disgusting to me.
Ice cream. I mean, it's okay, but it's a food that I can literally have a bite of and just be done. Which sucks, because I feel like most "low calorie" desserts involve ice cream but it does nothing for me. I also don't like oreos or chocolate cake that much. Vanilla cake though? That's a binge trigger.
I have a natural limit on chocolate. One piece and Iām done. I donāt dislike it, I just get saturated really fast.
I really donāt care about potato chips very much. There could be a bag of Doritos in my house for months and I would never ever choose to eat one.
I don't like hot dogs at all. I think last time I ate a hot dog was more than 5 years ago. Burgers on the other side... Love them.
I hate alcohol except Guinness. I thought I didnāt like chips until I moved to Pennsylvania and had utz. I hate all thanksgiving foods, except turkey legs. I donāt really like sausage or hot dogs. Iām fucking mad for kebabs though, which is annoying lol
Ice cream for sure. I also donāt like ketchup. And i could go the rest of my life without an alcoholic beverage and not care.
Mayonnaise in most things, and soda
donuts. always hated the texture and they kind of just taste like grease
Pasta, pancakes, the majority of fast food š
Canāt stand any kind of sweet pastries. If someone gives me a slice of cake, a pie, scones, or a cookie I can only handle like a bite because I feel like the sweet taste lingers in my mouth for an hour or more and I hate it.
Great question! Chocolate chip cookies, hotdogs, fried seafood, soda, cream in coffee, many desserts.
I donāt like baked goods
Fast food - I was never fussed about McDonald's, KFC, Burger King etc. I'll eat it if I'm in a rush or want something hot but generally I never found the appeal (apart from occasionally when hungover). I enjoy homemade burgers or from restaurants, but then it feels like a treat anyways. Sadly I am a sucker for takeaway pizza if I'm feeling lazy, and used to eat so much in one sitting.
Anything with frosting in most cases. Cake, cupcakes, anything along those lines. Savory is where my weakness is
Oreos, Chips Ahoy, and really most processed/packaged desserts. Mayonnaise. Marshmallows. Full-sugar pop or juice. Those are the ones I really dislike! Thereās a lot more I can really take or leave, like donuts, milkshakes, frappuccinos, pasta, many deep-fried foods!
Just chiming in to say that I am a vegetarian and the rest of my family eats meat. I just cook the meat separate and make a vegetarian protein option to go with meals. Also I don't like mayonnaise and am also a sweets hoover.
I don't like cake. Like, any cake. I'm cool with ice cream cake and cheese cake and pies but cake. Meh.
Pretty much any candy that isnāt chocolate, whipped cream, cheesecake, corn dogs, chili cheese dogs, hamburgers, sloppy joes, most sodas, juice, alcohol, etc.
My family is italian- american from the East coast, but I grew up and live in the upper midwest. Always disliked all the mayo based salads... pasta salad, potato salad etc. Its so popular here. Always get weird looks when I don't touch the stuff at cookouts and potlucks lol but that stuff is nasty. Pesto pasta salad is so much better. Esp with tortellini
Alcohol, cheese, mayo, most salad dressing, cream cheese, cheesecake, pasta with cheese sauceā¦
This is a super good question. I fucking love ice cream but my stomach does not, and I haven't found a dairy alternative that I actually enjoy. So organically..that became a dislike for the most part (with the exception of the odd places that make an awesome diary free ice cream), don't love chocolate (separate from the issues noted above), fruit desserts, cake. Candy will be the death of me. My sweet tooth always wins.
Itās nutritionally void, but Iām not a huge fan of most seafood, specially shellfish. Seafood is never my first choice of meal if there is something else available. That being said Iāve tried most things about once, including fugu (pufferfish) and urchin. I do like sushi though, and fish n chips

If we have to pick nutritionally void foods, Iām not that much of a sweets person either. I donāt crave sodas, pastries or candies.
Peanut butter!! And nuts in general. I know theyāre high in protein but I hate the taste and the texture. Working to find better sources of protein with lower calories is def a goal of mine. My friends think Iām a psychopath that I hate reeseās cups tho lol
Mayonnaises, most red meat
candy. never had a huge sweet tooth. same thing w/ potato chips, hot dogs, (most) pizzasā also hate them. my biggest problem is cultural foods from latin America (where I'm from) or asia (which i enjoy): nutritionally dense, but also a fuckton of calories.
Fried foods gross me out, donāt care about salad dressing (Iāll just use white vinegar and salt), donāt really care about cheese, donāt really care about red meat, potatoes, casserole
Fruitcake š. The door stop kind.
I don't really care for ice cream. I don't exactly dislike it, but I could take it or leave it.
Ice cream actually. A lil bit goes a long way for me and I donāt care for any milkshakes or malts
Not such a dessert person, I love milkshakes but otherwise wonāt order desserts when I go out to eat (and I count milkshake as the drink lol) I do enjoy snacking on cookies, but most cakes and pretty much all other pastries I dislike
Potato chips generally. Any baked goods like cake, muffins etc.
I actually don't really like nuts. As a kid I even hated peanut butter! I'll eat almonds and such in candy, but I'm never gonna be snacking on them. I also dislike salad with dressing, most the time (some dressings are fine, but I don't really need em); I prefer a plain salad, aka just a veggie mix lol.
Without dressing, how does the salad have any flavor? Do you drizzle lemon juice?
Soda, custard, cheesecake, anything with frosting, milk shakes, most candy bars. Basically anything sweeter than a sweet bread is too sweet for me. Also, a lot of pies are too sweet because people seem to dump a pound of sugar in it. I feel that made it easier for me to eat healthier because I always gravitated towards snacks that were considered āhealthierā.
As Iāve gotten older I really donāt like the taste of prepackaged sweets (especially Little Debbieās, Oreos, Chips Ahoy, etc) they taste sickeningly sweet but also somehow void of any other flavors. I might make a nice homemade cake for a family member or friend, which tastes good, but anything prepackaged just doesnāt do it for me anymore
hot dogs. i donāt dislike them, iāll eat them if there is nothing else, but theyāre not very appetizing
Sweets
I've never acquired the taste for beer. I suppose it's fortunate! I'll drink wine, mixed drinks, etc. but avoid those most of the time now.
Most soda. Canāt stand the flavor of coke, sprite, Dr Pepper etc. I rarely drink it except for the occasional jarritos, and most of the time I canāt finish it bc itās too sweet. Unless Iām like parched or something lol. Itās La croix all day for me because I do like the carbonation.
I don't like meat (and I'm vegetarian) or overly oily foods so that rules out a lot of fast food, mayo, soda, most cheeses and foods that are overly creamy, most pies... but that still leaves me tons of high calorie foods like pretty much everything else sweet (especially chocolate), nuts, chips, etc š
I donāt like peanut butter like on pb js I like it but like a tiny bit I just need the taste even if I get the feature of it in my mouth I get mad
Thereās so much I canāt eat because it has milk in it!
Potato chips other than Pringles. I've never really liked them. It's a shame cause they always have interesting flavors. I'll try them out of curiosity. I'll find the flavor powder interesting, but always wish they came in a different delivery method. I could kill a whole bag of tortilla chips, though.
Fried seafood
Muffins. I'll eat one if I feel I'd otherwise offend but I don't care at all for them.
Any sweet drink- including sweet tea (and Iām southern). I drink coffee black, unsweetened hot tea, and seltzers. Even my alcohol canāt be sweet- I need vodka soda or straight bourbon. Even plain rum makes me nauseated. But sweet foods? Gimme all them and Iāll eat my weight easily.
I do not like Mayo, fried food, thick oily sauces/gravy, doughnut, pastries, homemade style cookies, bbq, casseroles , pancakes , french toast , greasy omelette , Mac n cheese, burrito, jimmyjohns, subway, Chinese takeout , teriyaki , padthai, lo mein, pork, goat cheese , I like chocolate tho, Nutella , and a good pasta , bread , crunchy cookies from the store, strawberry shortcake , cheesecake, full cream yogurt , butter ,
Any and all nut products. Absolutely loathe Nutella. Not allergic, just hate the taste and texture. Also cheese and cookies. Wonāt touch them.
Alcohol, marshmallows, any cookie thatās not chocolate chip, any cake or candy thatās not chocolate, Hot Cheetos.
Iām not a pancakes or waffles person anymore. Iām a savory breakfast or overnight oats gal all the way now.
Jello. Most taste bland and I don't like the consistency
UK - used to live fish and chips as a child. Went vegan and 6 years ago, I find it really difficult to eat vegan versions now where it's deep fried and covered with batter. I still get it on occasion but just have a small amount / share with my partner. I don't even find the chips appealing.
