Foods the world would be better without

How very dare you - yes it does. Cucumber - what is the point of it?

In a lab test this evening, I was coincidentally able to sample shepherds pie with and without a cheese crust made by Mrs Dazzer (she doesn't like it so part of the creamy potato topping was cheese-free). My verdict - both good. It doesn't NEED a cheese crust, but is perhaps slightly improved with it.

Coleslaw -****ing devil semen. Foul and disgusting shit

That and peppers- Absolutely - theyre just a shit tomato.

I'll eat anything that doesn't rely on "mold" or tastes of fungus.

Just ban mushrooms and blue cheese. Please now.

Celery

Good call. Always see chefs on telly using celery as a base for stock, no thanks, give me an onion or a leek anyday.

Celery isnt a proper food, it takes more energy to eat than they contain, so should it be included? as a herb at most. Kidney beans are toxic with out cooking twice, so they seem to be pretty stupid food too.

Have to stand up for celery, Finely chopped with carrots and onion (so it melts away) you can't do pasta sauces, Agree on Kidney beans awful things, when there are much better beans available.

Absolutely. Tasteless, nutrition-free and stringy. Utterly pointless vegetable.

Any pizza at Da Mario's restaurant in Gloucester Road. Mind you the painting they have of Diana, Princess of Wales staring longingly at a pizza is some compensation. The rigatoni there is perhaps marginally better.

I'm (apparently quite oddly) not a fan of chocolate. I'll eat in once a year at most,

But that American stuff like Herseys - Jesus !!! Ban it now.

Good shout. Hershey's is an abomination.

Peppers! "You have got to be shittin' me Private Pyle!" I cook two to three times a week with peppers, plus they're great in sandwiches and salads, orange, yellow, green or red, each with it's own unique flavour. I've got nothing against tomatoes, but they're hardly comparable, completely different animals.

I'm been in a Subway possibly three times. What the hell do they make their bread from ?

Kidney beans is a great shout. Can't stand them


Also Stilton cheese. Moldy cheese really?

 

[Juan Albion]

Any form of beans, apart from runner beans. Baked beans are the worst.

Plus a certain brand of rhubarb-flavoured boiled sweet I once bought in Italy. Those Italians are mad.

 

[OzMike]

Watermelon, celery, banoffee pie, cider, gooseberries, couscous, celeriac, kiwi fruit, parsnips, cooked apple, cress, rocket, mango, paw paw, coconut milk, (but keep the coconut), oh and glace cherries.

Cucumbers - terrible stuff

I agree. I don't eat meat or fish but that's for ethical reasons rather than any dislike. Far too many fussy eaters around
