I have an idea for all of us out there that are feeling sad, alone, or just blue tonight. ( myself included) Letโ€™s see how many answers we can get! Tell us the one food your parent(s), grandparents, or caregiver would make that you just hated and never wanted to eat!?!?๐Ÿ˜–๐Ÿ˜–๐Ÿ˜–

Cโ€™mon... its something for us to do and it just might take our minds off of feeling bad. Reply, or just follow along.

For me it was liver and onions!๐Ÿคข๐Ÿคข I would sit for hours at the table. ( we couldnโ€™t waste food in our house)!!

Well I just knew him a short time. I tried to be his friend but he twisted everything I said or did into something bad. I could tell he was very mentally ill. So I backed off. He is in a better place. I am sure of that. I'm sorry that he left us.

I'm doing ok. He was older. He made his choice. I'm sure he was suffering.

in reply to Coco123456

Iโ€™m so sorry that he didnโ€™t get help. Nothing is that bad to check out. Thereโ€™s always help...support, encouragement somewhere! Glad that you realize how sick he was. Coco, youโ€™re a strong person to be so level headed!! Iโ€™m glad that you shared it with me.... Iโ€™m here if you need to talk more. Wishing you peace!โค๏ธ

That is good. Things could always be worse. We all have disappointments and rejection in life. God and Jesus loves us. I wish I could be closer to God

My parents never made me do that but I don't remember anything I really hated anyway. When I was 16 though I stopped eating meat and though my mother grumbled she didn't try and force me. She did nag me quite a lot though.

I am a nightmare at Christmas as though I am not a fussy eater generally I don't eat meat and don't like Christmas pudding! I am going out for lunch soon and I am having a roast dinner but with fish instead! Should be lovely. x

in reply to hypercat54

yummm I LOVE fish too. ( and meat... i guess i just like to eat! I hope your lunch IS lovely)! Remind me another time to tell you my Polish Christmas Eve tradition... I think youโ€™ll dig it!!

Lima beans. When eating them I would literally gag and my parents would get so mad. They thought I was taking. I really hated them. I had to sit at the table till I ate them all. Then I urinated myself because I had to pee so bad but they didn't believe me. Another night I stayed there till 11pm when I fell asleep with my head on the table. When I awoke I was in my bed. Eventually my mother just quit making them.

in reply to aaronm

Lima beans arenโ€™t my cup of tea either!! Thankfully, my Dad hated the too so my Mom never made them! Phew! ( dodged a bullet there). But i was just like you about the liver. ( Iโ€™d rather knaw on old shoe leather) pretty much the same consistency! It was always a battle of wills with makin me sit there... i fell off the chair once cause I fell asleep! So there, Mom and Dad! ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ. Lima beans ๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿป

Now it's brussel sprouts with my wife. She says if the kids have to try everything then so do I. I swallow them WHOLE!

in reply to aaronm

Oh no A... youโ€™re gonna choke!! But I totally get it... i think theyโ€™re nasty. So tell your wife... i tried it, and hate it! Lets leave em at the grocery store for those who love them but canโ€™t find any.... well something like that anyway ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ.... i think youโ€™ve earned the right to object now!! ( or hereโ€™s an idea)....find out what she hates ( secretly) and offer to make dinner one night! Turn around is fair play.... OR whatโ€™s good for the goose is good for the gander. ( thatโ€™ll fix her little red wagon!) Just having fun here A!!

aaronm in reply to

That would backfire lastnerve because my wife really would try anything but all I have to do is try it. But everyone has one free food to pass. Mine is cauliflower. Thank God I don't have to try that.

in reply to aaronm

cool that u can pass!! ( my sister absolutely hated, still hates cauliflower)...often she would sit at the table with me too!! ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

in reply to aaronm

Omgosh poor you!

fauxartist in reply to aaronm

I'm sorry that happened....and it's not a happy memory, it's child abuse.....to this day I cannot eat pudding or that snotty looking pearly slimy stuff either....because I too was forced to sit at the table to eat it....

Liver & stewed tomatoes ๐Ÿ˜–๐Ÿ˜–

in reply to SA192461

Liver with ANYTHING is just WRONG! Iโ€™m with ya! For cryinโ€™ out loud.... its an organ that filters out crud! why would anyone want to eat THAT?? ( my Mom used to justify serving it because โ€œits high in ironโ€.)....well, Iโ€™d rather eat iron than liver! ( gosh, when someone wasnโ€™t looking I would shove pieces of it im my pocket, under the tablecloth... on my little sisterโ€™s plate)....ANYWHERE but in my mouth. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿป๐Ÿ˜ต๐Ÿฅด

don't know if you get these in America but Turkish delight chocolate and fig roll are absolute gut wrenching foods.yeah and the liver that's Dracula type of food.

Iโ€™m happy to report a big fat NO on both!

( although fig roll may be obtainable.... glad I havenโ€™t run into any, though)!! And it should be outlawed to call anything atrocious โ€œdelightโ€.

What a great idea.....made me laugh right out loud! I have always hated fish, ick. I know many people love it, but I don't know, my tastebuds just say otherwise.

in reply to Yikes1953

Youโ€™re right...everybody has their own likes and dislikes! ... if u like comedy... Jim Gaffigan ( in his stand up show called โ€œCincoโ€) does this bit about fish.... itโ€™s hysterical! You could see it on youtube... Jim Gaffigan Cinco-fish. Or his whole Cinco stand up is on Netflix! SO FUNNY!! Have a good night Yikes! ๐Ÿ ๐ŸŸ๐Ÿคข

in reply to Yikes1953

oh ps... Jim Gaffigan is NO FAN OF FISH either, thatโ€™s why i think youโ€™ll enjoy it!
