re: Name a popular and mainstream food that you absolutely hate

Raw carrots. They're ok when drenched in ranch but otherwise I do not like them.

It's the only food I've encountered in my life that I didn't like. I love everything that's been mentioned by everyone else. Even as a lifelong meat eater I regularly order vegetarian dishes b/c I think some meals are just better with things like tofu or tempeh. I've all but quit ordering pizza with meat on it b/c I enjoy the ultimate veggie pizzas so much.
