If it don't look good...don't eat it?

I used to be exactly the same way, if something to me didn't look or smell appetizing there was no way in hell I was eating it. But I have learned to enjoy and try everything. A perfect example for me were squids and oysters. I used to see people eating them and I thought to myself "how can they it", the texture was so slimy yuck.. Now, I love it, everytime I go to a buffet or seafood restaurant and they have it, I normally order it, especially with some lemon and cocktail sauce YUMMY!!!

hi, actually when i see foods that are really so nice and delicious when they are look good and very colorful,but how many times i had faked by their colors and smells,i thought it was good and nice taste but after i tasted it,really turned off to the color.so now i still depend sometimes to the smell.

I can think of things from my childhood that tasted disgusting and so the sight of them now can still be a big turn off for me. Things like tripe, turnip, swede and cooked celery. There are some gourmet sausages available at the supermarket these days. I was curious and bought some once, they were a pinky red colour and tasted disgusting and I'm still put off by them when i see them in the store.

When i was a kid, i am quite same like you, always prefer to stay away from food that don't look good. Only when i was around nearly ten years old, then only i realized that not every food that don't look good tastes bad. Because at that time, i start to help my mother to prepare food and get the chance to taste many kind of food. Actually, some of them tastes very delicious. Now, i prefer only to stay away from food that don't smell nice. Because i don't have much appetite for it, if the food don't smell nice.

Most of the time I will look the appearance of food,but sometimes I will try it whether it looks good or not. If the dish look very urgly, I think no one will want to eat it.

Yes.I don't eat anything that doesn't look good to my eyes.I am a very picky eater so if it doesn't look good,i really won't eat iy no matter what people say about it

I am like you! I never used to eat something that looked funny, however when the kids started coming along I had to at least try some new things or I really couldn't justify them trying it! I actually started to like certain foods. I was never a big fan of Chinese food because I didn't like all that food mixed together on one plate. I finally tried Chinese food about 20 years or so ago (I was well into my twenties at the time). I was surprised that I liked it and a little embarrassed that the only reason I never tried it before was that it didn't look good to me.

Nope I don't do that. I take a small bite no matter how yucky it looks coz like you said, i might be missing out on a great food hahha!!
