While I don't really consider myself too picky of a eater, there are quite a few things I do not like, and even some that will induce an involuntary vomiting type reaction.
I never really thought much of it but lately I've been looking more into it. I'm not sure, but I think I may be what they call a supertaster, even though there are many inconsistencies with that theory. I also found on a website for adult picky eaters a list of possible/potential causes for it. On the list was tourette's syndrome, which I have. However, I've been trying to find research that suggests this, though I haven't looked that much yet. One of the things I found in common with me and picky eaters, is that the texture of a food is a big deal.
Many picky eaters can't/won't eat most meat because of it's texture. While I can eat meat, I can definitely relate to the texture of thick pieces of red meat being gag inducing. I have had to spit out many pieces of steak or risk vomiting on several occasions. I have had many people tell me I haven't had good steak, yet when I try their "Ultimate, tasty steak" it's no better. It doesn't help that the flavor is always on the outside of the steak, and all you taste mainly is bland meat, with that horrible meaty texture.
I really don't eat that much meat, often I do just because I know I need the nutrients, but I rarely crave most meat. I could easily be a vegetarian, and not feel like I was missing anything. Just about any/all seafood is off limits, horrible textures, gross flavors, and almost always gag inducing.
Hot spicy shit is bad times. Spicy is good when it gives some sort of flavor. If something is so spiced up all you taste is burning, and no other flavors, just burning, something is not right. Maybe I am missing something, but if I wanted that effect why not just eat fire? That's what extremely hot crap tastes like, textured burning. It's almost like some sort of pissing contest to show off your manliness, and nothing more. I can eat it just fine, but what's the point? There are far better ways to show how "manly" you are, and speak volumes louder than having your mouth on fire for a few minutes. Stuff like punching through brick walls, or being Segata Sanshiro. :P Sometimes it gets so hot that it tastes bitter.
Another vomit inducing substance is alcohol, of any kind. So bitter and gross. I've tried alcohol on several different occasions(beers, and hard liquor), and every time I immediately spit it out, I can't even swallow it.
In general I usually go for more sweet, sour, and to a much lesser extent, salty stuff. Stuff made from grains, like breads, noodles, and the like, most fruits, some vegetables, and sweets are my dietary mainstays.
So anyways, does anyone consider themselves a picky eater? What foods do you guys not like/can't tolerate and why?
-
Ha. I can honestly say that I now know more about your eating habits than anyone else on these forums :).
I am not a picky eater, though I am a vegetarian.
Still, there are some textures / flavors that are less enjoyable than others.
TANGENT (this is simply a list of dislikes, not necessarily on topic):
I prefer eggplant to be sliced relatively thin, for example, rather than have an inch-thick cut.
Fresh coconut juice/meat is divine... but dried coconut is only edible in a Samoan (Girl Scout cookie) and a handful of other items.
White chocolate is an oxymoron, and I despise it.
In fact, most products that pass themselves off as "chocolate" are horrible (sad, considering that I have tons of Halloween candy now). Chocolate, at least here in the States, is really brown vaseline (think "Entemann's chocolate covered donuts" / brown wax (think any Hershey's / Nestle candy bar).
As for the spicy food: heat for the sake of heat isn't really interesting to me, but heat+spicy flavor = wonderful :).
I've noticed that I've become addicted to spicier and spicier food over the years. I think it is simply that you grow accustomed to. Garlic-chili paste (any dish!) and horseradish (mostly sandwiches) are absolutely essential to life, IMO.
On that note, my friends and I are going to make some jalapeño-infused vodka soon (someone claimed that jalapeño beer tastes great, I've never tried it, supposedly it is a commercial product, not a home-brew).

You must be eating steak cooked by retards if you don't taste anything good on the inside lol.
My rule is as long as its not moving I will probably eat it. My only catch is I don't really like cold seafood like cocktail shrimp (but I still eat it sometimes), and I don't like shit that is so hot that I have to sign a waiver before I eat it.
I dont like pain flavored food.
my favorite kind of food is salty stuff. im the kind of person that uses 1 cup of water instead of 2 when maken ramen, and then i add salt once its done.
-
I am an extremely picky eater and it tends to piss off my wife who likes to cook criollo. I could live on pepperoni pizza though...as long as the pepperoni is scorched. :)
-
I am a more picky eater than all of you. I don't eat anything that wasn't murdered or at least used animal products in some way.
-
It depends on my mood.. generally I would eat anything.. but I hate stuff thats been sloppily cooked and especially food thats really burnt..or cooked till its sooo dry and tough or food thats been reheated to death
-
i am partial.

Not a picky eater at all. It's okay to not like something, but it annoys the shit out of me when people refuse to even try something, or take the food and start sniffing it right up against their nose -- just f*cking eat it!

Think about what you just said. You must ALWAYS sniff something before it hits your tonuge. The phrase that comes to mind is: If it smells life fish, it ain't a dish. HAHA
-
I like to eat pork chops that I find in brick walls. Sometimes when I'm running and skateboarding, I will have random fruits and perhaps a parfait. If I eat too much meat, I tend to go nutz.

Would you rather the person try the food and empty the contents of their stomach on your carpet? Lot's of people won't try new stuff, or will sniff it first, because most of the time they do try new things, it makes them gag/vomit
It annoys me when someone is practically shoving food in my face insisting that I try it. Trust me, there's often a good reason...
-
are purists also picky eaters?

Sounds like bullshit rationalization. If the person can't handle food for whatever reason (allergic reaction, etc), all he/she has to do is ask if something is in there, say that they can't handle such food for reason x, and that's the end of it. On the other hand, not trying something just because you're close-minded? Well, again, that's just annoying.
And as I mentioned, worse yet are the sniffers. And don't give me that crap about naturally smelling (Roy), do you shove your nose 1" over the plate on someone's dish when you're invited over to dinner from someone else's house? I've seen cases like that in say, Japan, where a Japanese family went great lengths to prepare a full meal for some foreigner, and the f*cking guy starts sniffing the thing like some bloodhound (again, all he had to do was ASK what it was/if something he couldn't eat was in there). If you don't think that kind of behavior is rude, then you just don't have a clue.

Sheesh man. I like to smell my food before tasting it, this goes with any food, whether I like it or not. I can't say I've ever used it as a test to see if I would eat something or not, nor do I get inches away from it. I do agree that your example is pretty rude, but it seems like an extreme to me.
When I talk about not trying a food, I don't mean refusing to try anything new. I have a pretty good idea of what I do and don't like.
Let me give you an example scenario of what drives me nuts:
"Hey man you ever eat cow tongue?"
"No"
"You want to try it"
"No thanks"
"Why?"
"It doesn't look appealing, sorry can't we just leave it at that?"
"Aww c'mon, you won't know until you try"
"Please stop, I said I don't want to"
and this goes on for a good 3-4 minutes
"Fine, I'll try the damn cow tongue"
*tries it
*starts to looks sick
either a *spits it out or *b starts to gag/vomit.
What business is it anyones if I don't want to try a new food? Why the hell can't they stop at No thanks. Badgering someone to try something that they have a pretty good idea they won't like seems rude to me. I mean really, what the hell is offensive about not wanting to eat something? Maybe I'm not hungry, maybe meat is gross to me, maybe it smells awful, do you NEED a reason? Not understanding that some people DO have problems with some types of foods (that aren't moral or health related), and refusing to let them be, seem pretty closeminded itself.
I will tell you every thing, every last little piece of food that someone has had me try, after my saying no thanks because the food did not seem appealing to me at all, I have hated. I have yet to try something that I had a pretty good idea I wouldn't like that:
A I was barely able to swallow
B Involuntarily spit out
C Start gaging/actually vomit stuff up.
I'm not being funny or joking about the gaging/vomiting, it HAS happened. In fact I have stopped trying many new things after years of trying just about everything I came across, I got burned way too many times. After a while, you have a pretty good grasp of the qualities of foods you like and don't like. Maybe I am genetically predisposed to not liking certain foods of which there have been studies to suggest such things, who knows?
So I ask, who's more closeminded? The person who has a good idea of what they do and don't like, and politely refuse something that they most likely won't like/induce vomiting if they do try it, or the person that badgers them to try it, and is insistent, not understanding that the person has a pretty good grasp on what they would and wouldn't like?
If you can't understand that some people, for whatever reason, have a much more limited palette than you, then you are pretty closeminded yourself.
-
Man you've used this people "badgering" you excuse on a few issues...seems like you need a new group of people around you. I have never been harassed to try certain foods/drinks, think a certain way on any topic, whatever. I guess I have a big enough set to stand by my NO, and not give in, and people figure that out pretty quick.

It doesn't happen often at all nec, the only reason I brought it up was (at least to me) it seemed like termis came out with his arms swinging, and he reminded me of one of those people. I rarely have any problems with it.
In any case, back on topic, if you guys aren't picky eaters, what foods do you not like?
-
No, Zeon is right...there are people who will deliberately push such an issue. It's idiotic. And some people just won't take NO for an answer.

Perhaps you have omphaloskepsis. :P
There are far better ways to show how "manly" you are, and speak volumes louder than having your mouth on fire for a few minutes. Stuff like punching through brick walls, or being Segata Sanshiro.
Indeed, though needing to prove your manhood to others is proof that you lack same. :wink:

We have a thread winner here folks. :lol:

Sexual innuendo (inherendo) recognition failure. [-(

and this goes on for a good 3-4 minutes
You need to learn to tell people to f*ck off and/or find some new friends.

So I ask, who's more closeminded?
Methinks it's you; it's all in your head, as the gag reflex isn't linked to taste and you don't have trouble swallowing food that you like. This scenario sounds like a self-fulfilling prophecy - you've decided you won't like it and not surprisingly have a exaggerated response after tasting it. That said, eat what you like and screw the douche bags that wanna shove something else down your gullet.
No, Zeon is right...there are people who will deliberately push such an issue. It's idiotic. And some people just won't take NO for an answer.
That's why God created neck punches, preferably while screaming "Eat this motherf*cker!"
I'm not a picky eater, as I'll eat just about anything (or, ahem, anyone), assuming it's actually considered food and isn't burnt to a crisp or otherwise improperly prepared. About the only two things I don't really care for are fried chicken and cooked carrots, though I'll eat 'em without complaint if they're the only things on the menu.

Wait...I just realized. You're the "asexual" guy too.
Just change your user name to Darkman and be done with it. If you don't like...anything, apparently, and you think the PC Engine sound chip is better than any real instrument, chances are you are socially stunted beyond hope.
Some people's parents, I swear...

Necro, and Zeta :clap: :clap: :clap: :lol:

I only eat entire turkey's than I find on the streets of Metro City. That is the sole source of my sustenance.
No, seriously, I'm vegetarian.

Well EXCUSE me for being different :roll: :P :lol:
-
Yeah, what's wrong with you Zeon? Don't you know it's wrong to not tow the line of social conformity? Sheesh! Get with the program! :D
-
I have a friend who I constantly make fun of for not eating anything you wouldnt feed a 6 year old
his diet: literally:
mac and cheese
hotdogs
burgers
spaghetti
PB&J
mozzarella sticks
He wont eat any foreign food. No mexican or chinese. he wont even eat taco bell.
hes never even tried Chinese food not one time in his entire life (so he claims), and refuses to and says it all sucks.
I could understand the reasoning "I tried it once and didnt like it", but his reasoning is stupid. You have to at least TRY something. Saying an entire ethnicity of food is stupid without ever trying any of it is just dumb.
i myself try anything once. even jellyfish! it stings your face!
-
Yeah, what's wrong with you Zeon? Don't you know it's wrong to not tow the line of social conformity? Sheesh! Get with the program! :D
There is a difference between being different and just being a freak job. He doesn't like sex, doesn't like food, and thinks the PSG sounds better than a guitar. He sure loves video games though! This is the very profile, in every way, of an extremely underdeveloped personality.
When this guy dies they will find the skins of children drying in his attic.

Haha you got me zeta, three things I have revealed about myself on these forums. You totally nailed it. You totally aren't jumping to conclusions or making assumptions on very limited information I have actually revealed about myself in these forums. These three things completely define who I am, yessireebob. You are one sharp cookie there. There's no way that you could be missing the sarcasm in half or more of my posts. No judging, stereotyping, or being the slightest bit close-minded here whatsoever. We all know you are the goto guy on normalcy. Yep cause there is totally such a thing as normal that is agreed upon by all.
:roll:
Seriously man, people talk about me bitching, yet it seems you relish in thread crapping in every thread I start that doesn't match up with your terms of "normal". You made your opinion loud and clear, now if you don't have anything else to contribute to the actual subject at hand, I suggest you take your sourpuss self elsewhere. Honestly I'd love to see someone drop you off in a foreign country where there culture and customs are drastically different from ours. I can just imagine you running around calling everyone a freak show, acting like your culture is the correct and normal one, pissing off the wrong person, and end up never being heard from again.
This thread was made in good spirits, with a simple question. I guess picky eating is too extreme and controversial of a subject for some of you :roll:
I just noticed zeta, you were fine until you realized I was that "asexual" guy, and then went into bitch mode. You got some personal vendetta with me or something? I don't recall ever pissing in your cheerios.
-
You totally aren't jumping to conclusions or making assumptions on very limited information I have actually revealed about myself in these forums.
Perhaps the information you reveal should be more limited; if you don't want people commenting on your neuroses, then you shouldn't keep bringing them up.
Yep cause there is totally such a thing as normal that is agreed upon by all.
By definition, your eating habits are not 'normal', as they differ from those of the majority. You are indeed a bit abnormal, but who gives a shit?
-
i myself try anything once. even jellyfish! it stings your face!
Did you have to get someone to pee in your mouth afterwards?

To define "abnormal", one must first define "normal", and I don't see anyone doing that here. :D
-
Normal is a load of shit.
-
Myself, I'm not talking about "normal". I'm not sure if I even used the word. Obviously as a vegetarian I qualify as a "picky" eater to most of my friends. However, we never would have got here as a species if it weren't for our extremely varied diets and our penchant for f*cking. Normal or not, he's an evolutionary dead-end.
My point is that Zeon might see himself as a harmless Edward Scissorhands, Kraftwerk sort of dude, but I just see him as more like..."It puts the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again." That sort of shit.
If he doesn't want this attention/persecution then maybe he should stop telling us how f*cked up he is. Either that, or save it for the furry forums.
-
Those who don't reproduce aren't technically useless; they serve as food for other creatures when they die.

Done thread crapping yet? I asked for what other people liked/didn't like to eat, not an entire tirade against what I personally prefer. Again, I don't EVER remember pissing in your cheerios, yet you still put in every pot shot you can get. Opinions are fine, but you are starting to sound like a broken record, at least Necro, Arkhan and others seem to be having a good time, you just seem like a very bitter individual. Perhaps something about me strikes a little to close to home and it irks you? Why don't you tell us a little about yourself Mr. Zeta? What makes you so awesome and wonderful? What gives you the need to bitch on and on? I swear I could make a thread as tame as "What do you eat on your eggs?" "I eat barbecue sauce" and you'd bust in all "BARBECUE SAUCE?!?! YOU ARE A SICK ABNORMAL FREAK OF A MAN"
Note for the slow, I'm not actually angry, I'm actually starting to have a good time with this, especially seeing how the EXTREME topic of picking eating has gone to hell. :lol:
Either that, or save it for the furry forums.
:-s Woah there buddy, I don't recall any mention of furries tn this thread, nor do I see how they are relevant. Something you not telling us man? It's ok, I won't judge.
-
Dude, remember your original question?
does anyone consider themselves a picky eater?
And I posted a 2 liner reply stating that I wasn't a picky eater, and how I annoying I found overly picky eaters to be. IMO, that's pretty much spot on to your question and the topic. I'll be third member in telling you that you're simply getting a reaction from what YOU posted. Did you only expect replies from overly picky eaters?
-
Those who don't reproduce aren't technically useless; they serve as food for other creatures when they die.
I'm not talking about a lack of reproduction. I'm talking about a lack of drive. If they don't pop out kids, fine, there are too many kids anyway. Everyone should pop out something though.
When I speak of "evolution" I'm not talking in the Darwinian sense. Natural selection for humans is over, but our evolution continues. Well, for some it does.
-
Did you only expect replies from overly picky eaters?
Of course he expected replies from people, its a forum. I believe he just wasn't expecting to be treated like some type of pariah over it by anyone. Maybe Zeta mistakenly thought this thread was in Fighting Street and not Chit-Chat? :lol: :lol:
Personally I will try any realistic food once if I can. Of course realistic can be taken many ways. I wouldn't mind trying fried crickets or delicacys from other regions. I tend to like strange dishes like escargo, Rocky Mountain oysters, fried calamari, and holy hell my favorite dish of all liver and onions. Yummy!
-
Those who don't reproduce aren't technically useless; they serve as food for other creatures when they die.
I pride myself in not having any kids and choosing to never have them. I'm not saying that nobody should have kids, mind you. By the way, Rover, did you get your kids some H1N1 flu shots yet? :)
-
Nope, and never will. :P
-
Me neither. Never had a flu shot, maybe had the flu 2 or 3 times my entire life, max.
-
H1N1 is such a f*cking scam. No way are we buying into it.
-
no offense to Zeta or any other vegetarians but I find that concept to be kinda retarded since we're designed to be omnivores.
That being said, whatever. I dont care that much, more meat for me. I love meat, big, thick, juicy, steaming, throb....uh....errrrrr :-"
yeah I dont really mind vegetarians as long as theyre not doing that STUPID bullshit where they go OMG YOU EATING MEAT YOU COW KILLER. My reply is always "piss off. think of all the bunnies that get decapitated while grains for your food are being harvested. At least my dopey cow im eating was bred for the sole purpose of being turned into food". Man one time protestors actually came INTO the KFC with signs and started yelling at all the diners. someone hocked a drumstick at the excessively loud girl and pegged her in the face. a fight broke out between dudes from the meat side and the grass side. That craps just unacceptable. Pushing your eatery views on others is pointless.
We grew up with this girl who went artfag/vegan, and one day she told me she wouldn't talk to me anymore unless I stopped eating meat because she needed to "simplify her horizons". I snapped into a slim-jim right in front of her and went "peace out, moron". Haven't talked to her since.
she collapsed from iron deficiency and spent a week in the hospital. go go gadget veganfail!

Another vomit inducing substance is alcohol, of any kind.

Fail. You missed a prime opportunity to unzip your fly and tell her to forget the salad, just eat my meat.

Dude why am I imagining this now? :lol: Please tell me the meat eaters tossed the pricks out on their ass outside? Not like those vegetarians had any meat(or muscle) on their bones. Pun intended :P
I agree with ya though I don't give a flying f*ck what you believe, if you believe all of the dead animals will one day rise and seek vengeance on those who killed them, so be it. Just don't cram your "morals" down everyone else's throats. BTW I've never really had any run ins with any bitchy vegetarians. Then again Texas doesn't have many, and the few we do have know to shut the f*ck up. I really would not be shocked to see some fatass devour a bitchy vegetarian on the spot. Seriously, we have some scary fatasses.

you raise a valid point.
though her personality was so bad that it ruined any hotness she could possibly have..
i saw her the other day, shes preggo and fat. owned.
I hear she isnt sure who the dad is either.
double owned.

It's you, right? Do I hear the pitter-patter of impending mini-Arkhan feet? :P

hell no. if it was id have coat hangered that problem away by now

Saying an entire ethnicity of food is stupid without ever trying any of it is just dumb.
Well, actually, in the case of British cuisine... let's just say there isn't much to get excited about (prior to the infusion of stuff from India and other colonies...)
Sorry.

no offense to Zeta or any other vegetarians but I find that concept to be kinda retarded since we're designed to be omnivores.
No offense to the folks who don't solve their problems with violence , but I find the concept of "civility" to be kinda retarded since we're designed to be...
...see where this is heading?
Is it really hard to understand that our lives are influenced by culture/morality/philosophy/politics?
I'm glad we're only talking about our diets, and not our personal views on homosexuality, sexism, xenophobia, racism, equality, etc., etc., etc., ....
-
Humans can survive on a vegetarian diet. It's not what is optimal for the human body, but we can do it. As for the concept of violence...we are social creatures by nature, and both violence and civility comes from our social construction. The two are not comparable concepts. Other lesser animals who exhibit violence do so for the same reason...social construct. Animals who kill other animals for food are not being violent; they're hungry and wanna eat something. :)

were designed to be what, violent?
I dont think the direction that statement is heading has any relevance to disagreeing with vegetarianism based entirely on the natural design of our teeth.
-
I don't think that we were "designed" at all. If we were, it sure is a shitty design! Too many lower back, knee, hip, shoulder and other problems. The designer should be fired.

When a human becomes weak or injured, it is supposed to become food for stronger creatures. However, our intelligence and technology has allowed us to largely avoid such a fate.

More like twelve year old little sister for the win, though I bet she'd do anything for a gallon bucket of eye makeup (a.k.a. - one week's supply). :wink:

I think she's pretty hot.

No hate, just truth; after all, she does look awfully young and she is wearing quite a bit of makeup. The real question though: is she a picky eater, or will she put just about anything in her mouth? :-"
-
when you've got pink hair going on, theres no such thing as too much makeup, lol. ;)
she loves meat. :-" just sayin.
-
I like her already.

I don't believe it.

believe what?

I could answer this- but only if you really want me to. Choose wisely.

Hot spicy shit is bad times. Spicy is good when it gives some sort of flavor. If something is so spiced up all you taste is burning, and no other flavors, just burning, something is not right. Maybe I am missing something, but if I wanted that effect why not just eat fire? That's what extremely hot crap tastes like, textured burning. It's almost like some sort of pissing contest to show off your manliness, and nothing more. I can eat it just fine, but what's the point? There are far better ways to show how "manly" you are, and speak volumes louder than having your mouth on fire for a few minutes. Stuff like punching through brick walls, or being Segata Sanshiro. :P Sometimes it gets so hot that it tastes bitter.
A quick word on hot sauces. There are a TON of different ones. And hotter doesn't necessarily mean bitter or sour. That's just a style of hot sauce. I prefer tobasco on once-over-lite fried eggs. That hot sauce mixed with the runny yoke is nom-nom-nom delicious. But I don't really use tobasco for much else. I have a whole array of different kind of hot sauces. Some for making soup, some for tacos, some for burritos, etc. Some have a lot of spice and hotness, some have little taste and a lot of hotness. It depends on what I want it on. I don't want that spice taste on some foods and other foods I do. I do like to mix in spicy/hot sauce with new bottles of spicy v8 - cause they aren't spicy enough or hot enough. And peppers too. Love fresh pickled jalapeños that still have a crunch and plenty of seeds. Habanero, serrano, roasted chiles. Hmmmm.
I can pretty much eat any type of food, but that doesn't mean I don't like quality/good food. The few things I don't like are; bell peppers (don't like the taste), cream of spinach, and too much yogurt. I like yogurt, but eating too much makes me gag for some reason. So I only eat small amounts of it at a time. Also not a big fan of BBQ sauce. It's ok, but usually cook my pork ribs with just onion/garlic-salt seasoning.
I never had a problem with seafood. I don't care too much for fish, unless it's prepared certain ways. Sushi being one of them. I love sushi (raw fish). And I love any type of shell fish (clams and red sauce spaghetti, shrimp and alfredo, butter and garlic scallops, deep fried mini octopus, etc).
I'm not afraid to try new food either. I like eating chicken/turkey hearts/gizzards and similar (I usually save the liver for making gravy - cause it's a bit to dry to eat).
-
my biggest problem with spicy foods is when they make it freakishly hot on purpose and all it does is makes you unable to taste anything except pain.
when the food just has a nice kick to it though its good stuff.
its like on Man. Vs. Food when he eats wings so hot he cries and chokes and probably shits out an a-bomb afterwards. lol

Well. There's a reason. Yes, some like to brag or whatever. But people like me that love the hotness part of the hot sauce too, you develop a resistance to it. I like that bite/burning feeling that goes along with the sauce. And eating it most of my life, I've grown a tolerance to it. Yes, there' still hot sauce out there that'll make me tear up. I don't order the hottest hot wings either, because there is a point where it's not enjoyable anymore (at least for hot wings, tacos and such food I like pretty hot). I usually just order whatever is considered "hot" for the wings and enjoy the flavor more. But certain types of foods, like carne asada tacos on uncooked corn tortilla with shredded cabbage, firm squeeze of lime, guacamole, and fresh pico de gallo.... needs to be accompanied with some really-hot/little-spice good sauce :D Nom nom nom nom

do you enjoy the kind where they make you sign a form before you eat em?
Most of the stuff thats uber-hot doesnt even taste like food anymore, lol.
-
Anyone a picky eater?
I appreciate good food, love to cook, and make the best of what's available.
I don't have much else to add.

For wings? No. I don't like the taste of the hotter sauce they use normally for places like that. It doesn't *need* to burn a whole in my mouth for me to enjoy some wings, but I do like at least some kick to them. There was this place called "Eddies" or however he spelt it. He had these super hot wings called "Barn Burners"... I guess because they're so hot they'd burn down a barn? Not sure on his logic. Anyway, they were really freaking hot - but the sauce was also pretty delicious, unlike say.. hooters "nuclear" or whatever hottest flavor.
Also, when you eat hot wings - you tend to eat quite a handful of them. When you eat something like a carne asada taco, you only tend to eat 2-3 of them. That might be *also* why I tend not to eat the hottest wings I can find.
-
this place quaker steak and lube has these wings where you have to sign a form to eat them. I tried them and it tastes like nothing. It just feels like you've stuck your tongue in a bug zapper. the aftertaste was like you just got done licking some brand new car tires. Total garbage.

I have a pretty strict diet due to my religious beliefs, but when it comes to taste, I've always been a picky eater. Nowadays I'll try most anything that's allowed for me, but having religion as an excuse does occasionally save me some grief.
I tried to be open minded when I was meeting my wife's family in the Philippines. Their cuisine is extremely colorful in terms of flavors - it was very interesting. Some things I wouldn't try, like balut (an egg with a partially developed bird inside), and due to her family's religion they do not eat blood (also forbidden in Islam). I tried all the vegetarian dishes they shared with me, as well as some of their fruits.
There was one dish that stood out to me was ampalaya (http://www.carinderia.net/vegetarian/ampalaya1.html) which is a dish of bitter gourd and scrambled egg, with some tomato and sauce. It was so bitter that it tasted like vomit. It's supposedly very healthy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitter_melon) and can help against diabetes and with digestion in general. At some point I want to share this dish with my friends and see how they react!! :twisted: :lol:

I suppose it is an acquired taste :).
Many years ago, I tried a "pickled plum drink" at a Vietnamese restaurant. As I drank, the intense (crazy) taste of the pickled plum at the bottom of the glass became more and more pungent.
I wasn't able to really appreciate the unadulterated, 100% pure pickled plum taste until I had the drink at least 5-6 times. I asked if I was supposed to eat the plum at the end and was told, "Some people really like it."
I think this pickled plum is like a pickled ume (Umeboshi), but I never bothered to ask.
Maybe I will next time.

ive often discovered, the worse something tastes, the better it is for you, provided its edible in the first place

Yes. Endorpine rush. At the Lao-Thai restaurant I order 5 out of 4 stars. It's not just to be "hardcore" either. Spice is an addictive thing (Flashes to DUNE)
I enjoy super-spicy food. Taste is important too, though. Someone who just uses raw habanero for effect is missing out. Wings that taste like "nothing" always suck. :mrgreen:
-
if the wings are spicy as f*ckboob but taste very good still, I willeat them, but if they taste like pain and if i closed my eyes I couldnt tell I was eating chicken wings, i wouldnt touch em.
that shit burns on the way out the ol' poop chute so id rather have it happen from a worthy meal instead of painful garbage.
