FAVORITE FOODS

Any shellfish, lobster crab, shrimp
Steak (medium warm red and juicy)
Pasta
Mexican
Sushi
beer

FOOD I WON'T Eat--seriously, want to know my secrets torture me with any of these . I WILL NOT EAT THEM under torture or anything else

Mushrooms (it's a fungus for crying out loud)
Peanut butter (it's a texture thing)
Cooked Carrots (raw are yummy)
Peas
asparagus
brussel sprouts
yams or sweet potatos

ok, spill it, what does your pallet like/hate
Sushi? I don't like it at all and for the most it is disgustingly mushy and icky. My son loves it and takes us to good Sushi places, but for me it's still unpalatable. I stick to the shrimp sushi.

I love Mushrooms.
Yummy peanut butter!

Cooked carrots are great if you don't overcook them and make them mushy.

Same with Asparagus. I had a spring white asparagus that was delicious.

Brussel Sprouts I will eat, but I really don't like them.

I like yams and sweet potatoes. Fixed correctly they are good.

My favorite foods..hmmm

I like chicken a lot and I enjoy steak every now and then (as long as it is done and not red).

I like most vegetables, even lima beans if they are cooked properly.

I love bread; bagels.

What I don't like....

Lobster
(I know that makes me weird...but I do not like it).

Sweet breads (I'm talking brains and stuff like that). Yuck.

Chocolate with fruity centers.

(I love chocolate, but not with fruit unless it's strawberries and you dip them).

Mostly I like food though...

Fish ..hmmm. I'm very particular about it. I like mild fish that is firm.
