Was going to let this go, but the fact no-one has mentioned the devil's food yet means I'm more convinced than ever it's a huge conspiracy...
Onions are foul! Especially raw.
Why the world has to include them in every single goddamn dish I have no idea.
Thats a good one, onions are definitely over-used in food. However raw onions in a kebab shop burger, cheese and onion sandwich (or one of the Liberal club French sticks with grated cheese and raw onion) are perfect. They repeat on you like a bastard but work, French onion soup done right is glorious too.
I'm on your side here bro, stick with me. Onions are hugely overused and unwelcome on pizza, in chilli, in Indian food, in mince-based dishes like shepherds pie or cottage pie. Tuna and onion, fuck no!
what's the problem with pie, mash and liquor? It's alright, fills you up. Or is the problem with people eating it then feeling the need to put their thumbs in their braces and walking bandy legged out the door whistling "me ol' bamboo"?
There's not much I don't like, but cauliflower is probably the closest you'll get. Annoys me on cooking shows to see "cauliflower three ways"/a celebration of cauliflower. There's one way, and that's left in the shop. Cauliflower steak? My ass.
Whoever said tripe that's something that never needs to be in a human mouth. You can taste the actual shit still.
The used to eat tripe as a treat and her breath would stink for days but she loved it, that said she also used to eat fox shit.
I tried fermented shark in Iceland, I knew it was going to be nasty, I cant describe how rancid that was, go into a high end Icelandic restaurant though and it will be there on the menu

Come on, Carter.
Don't leave us without any further explanation.

McBobbin…..pie&mash is a waste of time energy and money! I neither like or dislike the taste………because there simply isn’t any!

bit of white pepper and chilli vinegar...
Does remind me of that "Goodness Gracious Me" sketch though where they went for "an English" and asked for the "blandest dish" Think they went with scampi but could have been pie and mash!

100% this, can't feckin stand them or any of the onion family. Discovered this in later life as I didn't mind them back in the day at the Valley in a boiled beef burger !!
People saying pie mash is bland, but it’s not when it’s smothered in salt, pepper and vinegar. Some times the condiments make the meal. Fish and chips is pretty bland, but cover it in salt and vinegar and a big dollop of tartare sauce and it is a food from the gods. Same as a decent salad needs a good dressing to make it special or a prawn cocktail needs to be covered in Marie Rose sauce. Hotdogs need mustard, a burger needs ketchup, a kebab needs chilli sauce. A ham sandwich is bland, but put some English mustard in it and bosh. Same with a cheese sandwich. Bland as anything, but add some chutney or pickle and it changes it totally. Same with pie mash. It’s all about the condiment 👍🏻

The analogies to your team are all there, bang average team. Stick Flemming in it and BOOM play off contenders

By definition then, all food is bland and needs condiments?
Most desserts but a special mention for custard and or Blancmange. And as a vegetarian any meat.
I know I shouldn’t bite but…unless this thread’s morphed into “food I don’t eat”, what? Surely you get why people eat meat?
A little misleading by me there. I should have left out the veggie bit and it would have read correctly. Like most veggies I do drop into most conversations my lentil leaning ways, whenever the topic of food is mentioned, its the annoying trait we veggies and vegans have, know and like to remind others of. It our superiority complex we like project while reminding meat eaters we have been doing our bit for the good of the planet while they are munching their way through it. But seriously it doesn't bother me what other choose to eat, I come from a family that would chew your hands off if you got too close to the meat on their plates. Unlike most of the novo band wagon jumping, fish eating vegetarians I have always had a dislike for meat. Growing up and going to school in the '70s, I was the the weird kid with a plate of piled high vegetables at lunchtime, the dinner ladies must have felt sorry for me because they always wanted to fill the plate up with boiled to death, tasteless mush. Which to me was a close second to the meat they served. Anyway I hate the smell of chicken being cooked, a close second would be any stew being cooked and a very close third would be any roast meat. Also the smell and taste of milk or cream absolutely turns my stomach. But I do like a small bit of cheese, I would be a vegan if it wasn't for cheese.

I like them raw or cooked but mates I know who didn't like raw really liked the cooked version.

Also I enjoy a large bowl of Tapioca Pudding,
schoolboys often refer to this as Frogspawn.

Duriam fruit has to be up there though

Parsnips - make me fart ...
Rose Hip syrup for me.
