I am not rich but I am quite picky on food. I am not into almost all type of foods, I don't like veggies, meat and fish, I eat some but depend on how it was cooked, usually I go for fried but I still check what part of the pig, beef and chicken it is I don't know whats wrong with me hehe. I like dairy products and bread and sweets. Five food I can't really eat no matter how I try: internal organ like liver and other stuff, okra, balut (its an egg with embryo here in Philippines), lobster and crab (they look predator in the movie by arnold) lol, and seeing a whole roasted chicken or turkey in front of the table, I can't start with slice of it when it is prepared that way, I don't know why. So what is your five food?

I don't know if I have all these five kinds of food, but I definitely can't eat pork. Not only that I don't eat it anymore, but my religion forbids it too. :) And also dog meat. Other than those two, I think I'm all good with food. :)

Dog meat, wowsers, I didn't even realize there were that many who'd eat that, but I guess some do, along with cat and horse. Goat, too? Ewwwwwwww.

Hahaha...yes, Casandrina!! It's just like a little irony that I LOVE pigs! My Chinese horoscope happens to be a pig, and these farm pigs are so cute! And thank God I don't eat them anymore! I always tell my friends that I don't eat my kinds. Lol. NailTech, I eat goat meat. If someone can cooks it really well, it won't smell bad. :D But thank God I don't have to cook it as I can't!!! Haha! :D Luisar, I can't imagine people kill and eat cats!! :(

dog and cat meats are prepared here by those drinkers from grass root,it's against animal welfare so forbidden but some still do. I have watched a dog got killed and burnt the skin to remove fur, the smell is unexplainable. It's pitiful. haha casandrina, yeah its obvious for miss piggy to not eat pork. thanx guys for the good responses.

You probably are those type of people that don't like to enjoy food, and still don't know what you are missing in life. That is fine if you don't eat meat, veggie and fish. Nobody should try to force you to eat food that you hate, it is your personal choice. Sometimes you just have to live without them. I don't have any food that i can't eat so far, i find them appetizing most of the time especially fish and meat. Losbter and crab are some of the best sea food in the crusine world.

I envy you hehe, u are gifted for having a good tounge. Well, I can try these foods but if they are given a nice preparation, some garnish and style that it will not look what they really are. what do you call that style.

hmmmm while reading this discussion, i can't really think of something i cannot eat i am not picky and i love all the vegetable there is. maybe the food i can't eat are those raw, live (yuck, never!!)and very spicy food. oh speaking of raw food, i don't like "kilawin" i'm sure you know about that hehehe. and also maybe those food i am not familiar with, like when we travel outside the country.

Well, you could be a part of my family, like a sister or bother. In the sense that my brother is alot like you as far as the not liking veggies,and he loves his fried foods. He loves dairy, breads and sweets alot too. But he will eat most meats and some fish. Then there's me, and I won't eat the same items you won't, I have never heard of balut but as I'm not in the same country it's understandable. However, the way you described it is enough for me to say I wouldn't like it, too, LOL. I might try lobster or crab but there is no rush in doing that, if you know what I mean. :-) Liver and Okra are definetly two other foods I cannot eat either though.

Also, I agree with you about the whole roasted chicken or turkey, and some people even cook other smaller gamish hens and stuff like that and actually put it all on their plates that way. That will really gross me out for some reason, as well as fish that call for leaving it's head on when you plate it after it's cooked, and the pig that gets roasted in it's entirety in Hawaii I believe where they do that if I'm not mistaken. Not for me.

haha, then we are family. thought something is wrong with me but at least we are the same. that pig roasted entirely is what we call Lechon here. It is very expensive and only on occasions they cook or order. I don't like how it is prepared but when you taste a piece of it, its very very delicious.

I wouldn't by choice buy offal products. But when we butcher at home I feel it would be disrespectful to the animal who's life I've just sacrificed to not use it all, so eat everything. And I don't like fish, but I'd eat it if someone didn't know and had prepared it for me. That's not five, but I'm not fussy!

I'm not picky, "just" vegetarian, lol... so there is much more than 5 foods that I can't eat. Otherwise I eat everything that is not made of meat, except if it's something so spicy that I get blisters in my mouth.
