To Food, Friday Five

Welcome to the Friday Five! Each week I help you get to know me a bit better with the help of a top 5 list. This weeks category is: Foods You Hate.
 
I’m no snob when it comes to food. I’ll try pretty much anything at least one. I’ve had foie gras sushi. I’ve had anchovies on my pizza. I’ve even had Limburger cheese. But some foods, basic though they may be, I just can’t stand.

  1. Doritos / Powdered Tomato Flavoring – Yes, I know this makes me the weirdest person ever, but the smell makes me nauseous. Be it pizza Combos, or Doritos, or anything else tomato flavored, that weird powder they use to make it taste like that makes me gag.
  2.  

  3. Mustard – Same, I just can’t be around the smell of it without feeling sick.
  4.  

  5. Bananas – I remember having a few as like a toddler, but I haven’t had a banana in like 30 years. Again, the smell I just can’t handle. Also real bananas are all mushy and gross.
  6.  

  7. Ranch Dressing – I used to make my ex-girlfriend brush her teeth after she had her salads because she loved Ranch and I just couldn’t be around her afterwards, let alone put my tongue in her mouth.
  8.  

  9. Ketchup – This ones is more texture, but it’s also smell. If I want tomato flavor, I’ll dip my fries in tomato sauce, not cold sugary tomato syrup.
