Food you can't stomach

Oh man. Yancy's right. Sorghum would be like Burzum, only with a slower, more molasses-like glacial pace (think Eyehategod or early Earth). Amon Amaranth only requires a couple of extra letters. Teff would probably sound like Korn (another grain). Spelt = Kvlt. Emmure doesn't fall all that far from the emmer spike.

Roast potato game still going strong in the twenty oh thirteen.

i only have a few common foods that i won't eat:

green and other types of strong olives
most cream soups

can't think of too much else that i wouldn't eat. and i guess i would eat both of those things. i just really don't want to.

there is a whole, lesser list of things i just don't like. that has more items on it. like alfredo pasta. and i have another list of foods that i avoid because they are generally prepared poorly and i only enjoy it when they are prepared a certain way. like a sun-dried tomato, for example.

No idea how I forgot to mention tomatoes.

tomatoes are one of the most delicious items on planet Earth

What is your stance on clam chowder Jasper? I used to have a sort of anti-cream soup/everything stance, but that was a game-changing food for the younger me. Now I'm pro cream. For the most part...

not sure why Triticale is so high. pretty sure that was Pentangle's Tuareg desert blues side project.

I've only met people who believe the contrary on the internet.

Tomatoes are the last thing I want to put in my mouth. I'm not as picky of an eater as this thread makes me seem, but that's a sore spot.

Can't handle any hard boiled egg, or any runny yolk.

Tomatoes are hit or miss. If it's vine-ripened or an heirloom, sure; but if it's a huge artless chunk of one of those pale hothouse numbers, no thank you.

pro Manhattan, con New England.

Manhattan clam chowder is the real obstacle keeping me out of the New England clam chowder game. if i didn't have somewhere non-creamy to get my clammy goodness i might have to give creamy clam chowder more of a chance.

i'll eat pretty much anything

cottage cheese is something im not v. big on

Grabbed a dog & fries from Rand Red Hots on my way home from physical therapy a little while ago. Opened the bag at home to discover it was slathered with mustard, which I can't stomach. So mad that I crushed the dog into mush in my fist.

Also there was yelling of profanity, and repeatedly slamming the fistful of mush into the bottom of a wastebasket. I really don't like mustard.

I thought you broke your hand.

i recommend developing a taste for mustard

a brilliant condiment of surprising variety

Not gonna happen.

Other hand. I should probably be more careful in my mustard rage, at least until the left hand is 100%.

Rakeyohn hates mustard, dude.  Hates it.

Best thing I ever did. I even have a mustard jumper.

a specific jumper you wear for eating mustard?

I have a wasabi cloak
