OT Food Wars

Is that a book? I don't eat books, unless it's a social situation. Then I conform.

Just dont burn books, you can eat as many as you wish, however!

I refuse to eat artichokes, avocado, tomatoes, orange juice, spinach, chocolate, baked potato, beans, coca cola, bananas, dairy products except small portions, cottage cheese, cheese, certain nuts and seeds, cream cheese, cantaloupe, papaya or any other food high in potassium or phosphor.

What kind of nuts? I like regular peanuts and cashews(not really a nut). I don't like any other nuts.

Can't stand corn nuts

I do eat/drink OJ, chocolate, baked Potato, some beans(baked or pork and beans), coca cola, dairy products/cheese, cream cheese, and sometimes bananas.

I also don't eat artichokes, avocado, tomatoes, spinach, most beans, cottage cheese, cantaloupe or papaya.

Other than the aforementioned catsup, I’m willing to try pretty much anything (though I did refuse to try balut and have no regrets). About the only other thing I run from (at least that comes immediately to mind) is beef liver (love chicken liver). I struggle to understand how anyone could not love zucchini. That shit takes on the flavor of whatever you cook it with and is one of my favorites.......

Artichokes is so good

Its been a while, but the old school chinese seafood restaurants in the PNW had steamed geoduck, it was awesome.

Missed this. I’ve never seen geoduck at any restaurants. I’ve seen a couple shows where they were cooking it and I’d love to try it.

I eat all those except coca cola. Don't drink soda.

Grow artichokes, oranges, tomatoes, beans, spinach.

Never get diabetes or never get poisoned with Agent Orange.
I don't miss cokes all that much except when I have a Reuben sandwich with a naturally fermented dill pickle and that's when I crave an ice cold coke. The other foods I dearly miss, especially the orange juice and a perfect avocado.

Never craved one. Never seen one in a grocery store. Never saw one on a cooking show. They're so damned ugly that they turn me off. How could any clam beat a razor clam?

I am also shocked to hear some of you do not like eggplants - which when properly cooked are delicious - fresh, well made Moussaka is one of the greatest treats in the world - same for charred eggplants in Tahini.

I was vice president in charge of cooking last night - and I remembered this thread. Made charred eggplants with Tahini. Sooo good.
