What's your favorite, least favorite food?

[wbraswell]

Y'all just don't know what's good.
Least favorite: Raw cucumbers, raw broccoli(I love it steamed or stir-fried) don't care much for beef liver. horseradish of any kind, that stuff should be labeled "Vicks", grapefruit. Orange marmalade, why would anyone do that to good citrus? Well done beef= dog food(except good BBQ brisket). Any dry meat(except jerky) and I'm really not fond of salmon, it has a bad aftertaste.
Favorite: almost everything else
Waitress: "Do you want any steak sauce with that?"
Me: "I'd better not."

I would like to amend my least favorite food to read "anything my first ex-wife cooked".

I remember buying her a smoke detector to tell her when to turn the food over.

Man it was bad. How bad? I'll tell ya how bad. Every night my daughter would beg me to send her to camp in Ethiopia. That's how bad. I tell ya how bad it was. We had to call a hazmat team to take care of the leftovers. She was bad. Even when we had picnics. Ants would run away. One year I bought her a cook book. She cooked it. She was bad, boy. I used book airline flights just to get a decent meal. My wife would say "why are you always traveling so much, you must be starved." I'd always say "I am honey, what do you say we go to pet smart, they have purina you like on sale". Man, memories. This thread brings back memories. Why, I remember................

Least favorite: Anything Italian, Gooey bread, hot tomato sauce, garlic and soft, stringy noodles. Yuck!

New favorite. There's a barbecue guy who has a roadside truck very near the entrance to my Trap Club. I think he's only there on the weekends, but I always ignored him.

Stopped there Sunday after shooting (and none too well) and bought a pound of brisket and pound of pulled pork. IME brisket is hard to get just right, but his was more than perfect. Probably the best two meals my wife and I have ever had and I can't wait for the weekend.

I still love rare steaks, chuck roasts and fresh (as in just off the boat) fish.

Moe, did you ever write for Dangerfield?

Don't I wish. I'd probably be able to afford two boxes of ammo. That would be something , wouldn't it? Two boxes. I haven't had two boxes of anything since my mother threw two boxes out in traffic and told me to go build a fort. My mother, she was a real card. I remember the day she dropped me off at the adoption center. She told the receptionist she found me at Nathans in Coney Island. I knew she was just kidding because I hadn't been to Nathan's.
Yeah, my mother, rest her soul. She'd still be here if my first ex wife hadn't invited her over for dinner.

[walkin jack]

Favorites Prime rib, Lobster, Grilled grouper on the half-shell

Least favorites Sweet potatoes, egg plant, oatmeal. and the absolute gagiest food of all RAW OYSTERS

I like broccoli and brussle sprouts with lots of butter. But they fall some where in the middle.

 

[radar1972]

Favorite: Smoked BBQ pork.

Hate: Beets.

 

[Cyrano]

Like: Pretty much everything. That's why my belt is 52".

Dislike: Stewed tomatoes. Lettuce ( I tell my kids "if you eat your lettuce, your ears will get long and furry like a jack rabbit". My wife wasn't amused).

 

[joeintexas]

Tough act to follow!
Favorites would be baby back ribs and most anything Mexican.
Not a picky eater but don't care for anything referred to as innerds.

 

[wbraswell]

I don't like anything referred to as "Big Mac".
There are still quite a few cheeses, that I can't deal with, but I would like to try, and culture my palate to them.

 

[Dueeast]

Fav: Anything that goes with beer.

Least Fav: Anything with Mayo

 

[ladder13]

F= Pizza, macaroni
L= Everything else

 

[rwsmith]

A word about oatmeal.....

Favorites Prime rib, Lobster, Grilled grouper on the half-shell

Least favorites Sweet potatoes, egg plant, oatmeal. and the absolute gagiest food of all RAW OYSTERS

I like broccoli and brussle sprouts with lots of butter. But they fall some where in the middle.

This is weird. I like the first spoonful of oatmeal but can't eat any more without gagging.

I'm going to take a different turn on this, and tell you all of the unusual, or unique foods I have tried. MOST of which I like, LOL. MOST of us, I'm sure, can claim the enjoyment of many Italian, or French foods/dishes. So, stretching one's pallette, my favorite ethnic food genres are:

Indian, Filipino, Viet, Thai, & unusual Chinese things like hot-pot.

I have eaten Morroccan, Somali and Ethiopian african foods, Russian, German, British and Polish (lord I wish she had stayed in business) Euro-foods, Japanese, Cambodian & Korean Eastern foods, Lebanese, Iraqi & Syrian Middle Eastern foods. Greek/Middle Eastern is mostly, meh.

Sushi: Love anything rolled/mixed. Plain pieces of fish are simply boring.

Tripe: Fried Chitlin' style, in Mexican menudo soup, or crispy in soft tacos. Love it. Stewed southern style, meh.

Cow brains: Again in Mexi tacos. Similar in texture to fatty pork. Not bad, but not worth the risk again in my book (Google Krutzfeld-Jacob!)

Pig snout & ears: part of my fave Filipino dish called sisig (also w/liver) . I get the ears sliced and steamed(or wok'd?) w/hot spices in several asian places around town. Love it.

Scrapple: Yum, yum, and then sum. Thin and crispy, like hash.

Goat: the beef of the Middle East. Yummy. Roasted, or curried.
Lamb: even better

Pig blood: in a Filipino stew called dinuaguan. Like limburger cheese, it's an acquired taste.

Beef Tendon: the white cartilage kinda stuff. In Vietnamese pho soup, or sliced and steamed w/hot spices in several asian places around town.

Beef tar-tar: once, at a sushi joint. Swathed in hot-red-chili spices. LIttle goes a long way, like caviar. Take it or leave it.

Sqid and octopus: Fried and spicy, just fine. Mostly an Asian thing.

Rattlesnake, alligator: 6 of one, 1/2 doz of the other so far as taste. Enjoyable fried. Snake and gator have texture of lobster.

Frog's Legs: Really are like poultry/chicken. Enjoyable, but don't crave it.

Kimchi: The greener the better (as in more bok-choy)

Dried fish: little guys, like bait. In Korean red spice sauce, or crispy-fried and salted Filipino style

Ostrich: The 'beef' of the poultry community. Delicious.

Rabbit or venison: ONly tried as a kid, and I can't recall much.

Love all commonplace veggies especially fresh spinach, Brussells and asparagus.

Cauliflower is BEST reserved for an India dish called Gobi Manchurian, LOL.

DISLIKEs:

Canned Veggies, with asparagus and spinach the top-two offenders. Only could eat either chopped up in a soup.

Hates:
Beets, rhubarb, most radishes, durian,
