What's a food you hated as a kid and still hate now? - Drinks acceptable too.

Anything made out of liver. Apparently liver casserole is a goddamn staple food in my country and I only need to be on the same room with someone heating up the lunch and the smell alone will make me gag.

I can vividly remember skipping school and just going to the library to read comics on days the lunch would be liver casserole. Because some teacher would be like "Just try it you'll like it" and they would half force this plutonium waste on my plate. I have tried it, it's shit, it's always been shit. 30 years later it still shit.
 
Liver. Saw some faggot on YouTube saying that if you soak it in milk for a few hours or whatever it extracts all the bad tasting shit, but imo that’s the equivalent of soaking a fat floaty shit in milk and coping that it tastes better when you fry it afterward. Liver is gay and people who eat it are gay. Bad taste, bad texture, 18th century offal poverty cope meal, 0/10.
 
Tomatoes in general, though there are exceptions.

I'm fine with them either being cooked, dried, served as a topping on a dish, as a sauce, drenched in sauce, etc., but I refuse to eat it by itself as is. Back then, I had high hopes of a raw tomato tasting great. It only took one bite and about half an hour of being glued onto my seat while staring at the half-eaten tomato in disbelief and stewing in disappointment.

Also not that much of a fan of bitter melon.

Anything involving tripe, it's absolutely vile. While it wasn't a staple food of my childhood, it was served often enough, especially at older relatives homes, to make me hate it with a neverending passion.
I come from a long line of poor, marginalized peasants, so eating every part of a slaughtered animal is a given but i absolutely draw the line with tripe, no matter how it's prepared, aquired taste my balls. The smell alone can clear a room.
To give a perspective on how disgusting it is to me, i love most other organ meat. Fried goat brain? Amazing. Calf gonads chickenfried steak-style? I dig in. But fuck tripe.
Not a big fan of kidneys either, if they are not prepared correctly they, unsurprisingly, taste like piss.

For a more common food, i fucking hated raw bell pepper as long as i can think, especially the red ones. The mouthfeel alone makes me almost gag.
 
Peanut Butter. I must have been the only American kid who couldn't stand Peanut Butter and Jelly. Luckily, where I live now, peanut butter isn't a thing, so I don't have to justify my hatred of it.

What I do have to justify is my hatred of French Fries, because it seems like every person on the fucking planet but me loves them and thinks they are the greatest thing ever.
 
Tomatoes, olives, cod, and pollock.
Other than that I eat pretty much everything.
 
Tomatoes, green peas, olives, cilantro, mustard, ketchup, cocktail sauce, tartar sauce, apple juice, vinegar, mayonnaise, mushrooms, sweet potatoes, pickles.

I hate cake, and cookies. I hate frosting, I hate chocolate, I don't understand why every single person on the planet loves this bullshit so much.
Dude, I thought it was just me. I can enjoy oatmeal raisin cookies, but chocolate chip cookies are almost as overrated as bacon. Sugar cookies taste like Play-Doh smells. And cake is fucking trash. Literal sugar bread covered in sugar paste. I can't stand it.

Pie, on the other hand. Mmm...

Pie is filled with fruit. I love me some apple pie, especially. You hit it on the head though, cake and cookies taste like pure fucking sugar, it's too much.

Raw onions, mayo. Hated them as a kid, still won't ever eat them. Onions have a specific combination of sweet and spicy and fibrous that's horrendously vile and only goes away if you boil them to death.

I recently tried Nigerian food and noticed there was tripe in the dish. It's always grossed me out, so I was hesitant to try it, but it was honestly the best part of the dish. Very tender and soaked up all the flavor.

This. Kidney was one of the other ingredients in the Nigerian dish. It was horrible. Extremely tough and dry, and it had a stale, gamey taste.

I hated raw bell peppers all my life because I'd only had the green ones. Now the red ones are actually tolerable. Green bell pepper is so bitter that I actually gag. Red is slightly sweet and has a berry taste. I made a pound of the most rich, aromatic paprika on earth from the ones in my garden. Actually tastes like a spicy berry.
