These bad boys almost make me puke all the times. I've tried to develop a taste for them but I just hate them so much.
I don't think they can possibly taste the same to me and to people who actually enjoy them.
Is it something like cilantro tasting soapy to some people? Also can you confirm this cilantro thing? I love it but a few people I often have at dinner really don't.
Ryder Cruz
For whatever reason I really hate raw tomatoes and cucumber.
Cucumber has a really strong taste to me and I can't get over it.
Raw tomato just fucks whatever it's on - like it turns a perfectly crisp and nice sandwich soggy and overpowers the other flavors for me.
Eli Nguyen
Blue cheese. Can't quite get a taste for it.
Brayden Stewart
Anything at a store that's not fresh excluding things like rice, bread, frozen veggies.
Canned shit, pickled shit... basically anything that comes in a jar. No thanks. If I want pickles, hot sauce, condiments... I'll just go ahead and make them myself at home.
Justin Barnes
I legit hate beets. Fuck beets.
Michael Robinson
Sun dried tomatoes are god tier.

>Be young me >lactose intolerant >really have a hard time eating cheese or drinking straight milk >my parents don't care and force me to eat it every time instead of letting my tastes develop over time >sometimes my dad would stand me in the kitchen and force me to drink a glass of milk >I always gag and refuse to down it >ever since then, when I would eat cheesy foods, I'd vomit everything I'd eaten overnight >It got so bad that one day I eat nachos and immediately after finishing them, I hurled them up >my mom is concerned >my dad doesn't know what's going on >I tell them it's the cheese. >they proceed to give me foods without cheese from then on >no sickness
And that's how I grew to absolutely despise cheese. I'd get force fed it until I'd throw up and would do it so consistently, my brain told me cheese was fucking toxic.
Seemed to not affect me when I ate cereal or ice cream though...
Brandon Powell
So... just dont eat them? They are just capers. Why force yourself. There are like two dishes that you will be missing out on. For me, its eggs. The worst food.
Sebastian Anderson
If you live in a hot enough area (say at least 85°F and good sun), they're pretty fucking easy to make. Something as simple as setting on a tilted reed matting, sliced in half, then storing with lots of salt is good. If it's hot/dry enough you can make it in 1 day.
Matthew Cook
>and then put them in jars
William Mitchell
I was a picky eater as a child, so much that trying food I used not to like is now an habit. And usually a good one. But capers are off the list now. Maybe in a few years I'll try them back.

Have you tried it with beer or wine, or as part of a dish? That might mellow out the sharp edges.
Jackson Clark
ah yes let me have a nice mouthful of tear gas

The ketchup meme. I cannot fathom why putting sickly sweet tomato sauce on fries or other food is the default in so much of the country.
Tyler Young
>being such a flyover that you can't understand the combination of sweet and savory
Aaron James
Welcome, my friend, to the wonders of home made ketchup. Such a glorious sauce doesn't need to be made from shit quality ingredients and tons of sugar as 90% of store bought is. You basically just need to know it must cook until it loses the vinegar-y smell.
Michael Martinez
Watermelon...gross...i see why niggers eat it there not quite up.to evolutionary standard....but white people c'mon can we just put this shit out of it's misery....and get rid of watermelons too while were at it
Juan Thomas
I don't mind sun dried, it's just raw "juicy" tomatoes I'm not keen on.
Yeah I don't know if it's a taste bud defect or what but I can detect cucumbers a mile away.
Camden Barnes
cucumbers do have a strong aroma. some people are just flavour retards
Nicholas Bailey
Give roquefort a try. I absolutely hate gorgonzola, stilton, and every other blue cheese I've ever come across, but I love roquefort. Unlike the others, it doesn't taste like feet, but still has that characteristic pungent sharpness of blue cheese.
Ian Walker

i am curios
Cameron Smith
You have probably never tasted a really GOOD watermelon. What one can get in stores nowadays is nearly all watery, flavourless, early-picked shit.
Noah Roberts
>curios
Jacob Clark
/dadg/ all over today
Liam King
>homemade why bother when Polish ketchup exists
Jack Hill
Honestly? Olives. I love olive oil, but I can't stand eating them plain.
Good watermelon is really fucking hard to find. If you can get a good one though (look up guides online on how to tell if one's ripe, and only buy them from farmers markets), they're heaven and maybe the best tasting fruit.
Ayden Brooks
really? on Veeky Forums?
Matthew Myers
This holy shit. I will eat or try almost anything but raw tomatoes are fucking disgusting. Cucumbers and celery also have an overpowering taste and ruin any dish for me
Grayson Price
yes
Joseph Clark
I used to hate raw tomatoes until I had a really good Caprese.
Noah Flores
is hating tomatoes a strickly american thing?
Jaxon Murphy
move bitch, champion coming through
Bentley Phillips
1. It's "strictly" 2. Tomatoes are indigenous to the Americas 3. People in the USA love tomatoes. Just search per capita consumption 4. Try not to ask stupid questions
Jeremiah Miller
onions are the devils vegetable
faggotinis with shit taste
Angel Price
it's just that I don't know anyone who dislikes tomatoes IRL, and yet it seems they're hated by many on Veeky Forums
Levi Jenkins
Unfortunately I don't really follow a recipe for this, so I don't have amounts. The technique is pretty straightforward, you just have to boil everything slowly in the same pot. The variations are endless:
What kind of tomato? I usually go with puree or peeled. After cooking, the choice matters also in term of needing to strain the sauce or not. If you like it smooth, strain it anyway.
You need a lot of vinegar. I usually go white and wine, as I like wine vinegar but it's too strong.
White sugar is fine, a mixture with brown or honey gives complexity but it's up to you. Sugar is also needed for texture and helps preserve it longer (a major disadvantage when compared to store bought)
Spice the fuck out of it: garlic powder, onion powder and a clove are the base. Yes I'd go for powder against fresh garlic, but maybe I'm the real pleb. Other than that, really whatever you like is gonna be fine (probably). Oh yeah, salt. Don't forget salt.
Cook until thick or at least an hour or so. It's probably best to use a slow cooker... it will take hours but you don't have to be around as much.
Daniel Carter
Fish, fennel, artichokes and olives. It's the worst of the worst.
Lincoln Miller
European here, mediterranean. We have high quality tomatoes and I cannot stand raw tomatoes if not high quality and thinly sliced. I know people who dislike raw tomatoes and people who dislike cooked ones, but nobody who dislikes both.
Christopher Green
Cilantro to me tastes like battery acid, but if there's just a little bit in a dish it's tolerable. I dont know how beaners can load that shit up in everything they eat
The food that i cannot, and will not eat is corn. Regular canned, creamed, or on the cob, that shit makes me want to projectile vomit just by smelling it being cooked. Ever since I was little Ive never been able to eat it. I would gleefully eat dog shit before corn... Hominy on the other hand is fucking delicious.
Kevin Reed
Hmmm, I might try this. My local ALDI has started carrying pureed tomatoes.
Matthew Smith
FUCK CILANTRO
Christian Reyes
>Cilantro to me tastes like battery acid, but if there's just a little bit in a dish it's tolerable. I dont know how beaners can load that shit up in everything they eat It's a genetic thing. Some people just can't into cilantro. I love it.
Lincoln Hughes
this >oh user, but they taste so earthy! no they taste like dirt
Parker Long
how tf are you doing your beets.
They just need some salt and a ride in the microwave. They're a bit starchy and sweet and make your poop look terrifying, but I'd never call them "earthy".
Jason Taylor
I dont like carrots or sweet potatoes in savory food
Connor Gomez
Kids tastes are literally chicken nuggets and Mac and cheese, "build over time" my ass
Tyler Smith
Yeah, cilantro literally tastes like bar soap to me. What is it supposed to taste like?
Adam Davis
like salty mint
Adrian Nelson
Back to your trailer you white trash
Blake Collins
I don't like yellow and red bell peppers, there's something about them that gives me a queasy feeling
All other peppers I'm fine with though including green bell peppers
David Cox
Veeky Forums is full of fat manbabies who subsist on fast food and microwavable meals.
Xavier Brown
>not chilling a watermelon in the fridge for a few hours, then enjoying it outside in the hot summer sun with your family Are you just pissed that a watermelon wont fit in the mini fridge you have in the bedroom you never leave? Angry that mom wants you to come down stairs and have some watermelon with visiting family who will inevitably ask if you've gotten a job or a gf?
Tyler Gomez
>We know it was not a watermelon with which Eve tempted Adam, for he repented.
Hunter Robinson
I've never heard of or met anyone white or black who doesn't like watermelon. I suspect you're just a /pol/tard who erroneously associates it with blacks and on that basis rejects it. Fool.
Cameron Hughes
The worst thing on the planet.
Xavier Johnson
everytime i've tried to eat these i have to cover up like 95% of the flavor with other food
green olives are only tolerable
Lincoln Bennett
small capers are nice but the big ones with all the nasty crunchy seeds are really disgusting
Leo Evans
You realize not liking raw tomatoes doesn't mean everything with tomato in it right?
Lucas Foster
>eggs. The worst food WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY
Robert King
Many types of mushrooms are just awfully disgusting to me, it's primarily a textural thing, but some taste terrible too. I have had some that I enjoy, generally smaller firmer ones that aren't as earthy tasting. The ones you'll typically find on pizza I cannot stand at all though, makes me instantly want to vomit.
Also ranch dressing, I'd sooner kill myself than even smell it. When I worked in restaurants I'd occasionally get some on my hands and boy did it just genuinely disgust me. Made me resent anyone that enjoys it, and to think some people drown perfectly good salads and pizza in that shit. Makes me shudder
Jason Harris

This fascinates me. It's such a mild flavour.
Jaxon Long

Caleb King
This is where I stand.
Except cucumbers, those are fine by me.
Nathaniel Nelson
I bet you never heard of Caprese until JoJo.
Nicholas Foster
>Used to eat eggs a lot between ages 2-5 >Kept getting disgusted with how they looked in cartoons >Found them disgusting forever with very minor exceptions
Kale, quinoa, pumpkin spice, sun-dried tomatoes, avacados and guacamole, soy milk, almond milk, apple cider vinegar, sriracha, jalapenos and shirataki noodles to name a few.
Aaron Thompson
canteloupe and melon they're horrendously unappealing watermelon sucks too best fruit is raspberries
Landon Robinson
Capers are delicious in salads, especially with anchovies.
Robert Ramirez
Literally tried to post this exact image. They have a weird metallic taste to me that overpowers anything they're cooked on.
Also, this. I tolerate, but don't prefer, most seafood. But shrimp is an absolute could not, would not, on a boat for me. The texture is not appetizing, the flavor is terrible, and they look like some kind of disgusting sea bug.
Jack Allen
capers are god tier on everything you child.
Jacob Jenkins
Like somewhat between parsley and oregano, but with a citrus overtone. People without the genetic trait don't taste any soapy flavor at all
Juan Davis

Jason Williams
I eat about 4 or 5 good burgers a week welcome to the club
Brandon Perez
If they taste like dirt they're raw, you need to boil them
Mason Hill
Cucks
Owen Cooper
I food I love that everyone seems to hate is okra.
Alexander Hall
Have a small piece with some honey on a cracker. Blue cheeses are really strong so you dont need much. They stink pretty bad though, I'll give you that.
That sucks. They're pretty standard on burgers.
Carter Jenkins
Okra is awesome. Fried okra is hard to get right but oh so good. I made some Indian food a bit ago and added okra, and it was great.
Kevin Morales
Ah man thats crazy, i just started eating okra, because the Indian place right by my house uses it in alot of dishes, and I'm completely addicted to it
Samuel Clark
Raw tomatoes. I hate the texture and the taste. Turn it into any sauce and it's delicious though. Nuts. Almost all of them taste disgusting to me. People grind them and put them in stuff and then claim "oh you can't even taste it". Yes, I can, and it makes it worse. If you "can't even taste it" then how about you don't fucking put it in, you can't taste it right!? Water chestnuts are delicious though.
Brody Gray
Can I join the anti-onion brigade if I only hate excessive amounts of raw onion (diced especially), but like, with a really, really strong passion
Brody Perry
Of course, excessive amounts doesn't apply to putting it on burgers or most other sandwiches. Any amount is too much then.
Dominic Murphy
...Is it weird that I don't have any real pet peeves with food and will appreciate virtually any food or beverage that's crafted well enough?
Josiah Rivera
I like every single thing that has been mentioned. The only two I'm kind of indifferent on are sundried tomatoes and capers, but I can take or leave them really. I'm glad I'm not a picky eater; it sounds like a lot of effort.
Jose Foster
What you had were most likely green olives dyed with super strong iron-based black food dye ... as are most preserved "black" olives. Go eat some genuine, fresh black olives, they are god-tier.
Noah Murphy
Tastes like sharpie marker desu.
Matthew Powell
Swiss cheese fucking sucks.
Chase Rogers
Can't stand lamb. Every time I try it, I think "Maybe I was just tasting it wrong last time" or "Maybe it was the way it was cooked."
Nope. Can somebody explain to me the appeal of a literally milky-tasting beef? I'm genuinely curious.
Nicholas Stewart
I think it tastes like delicious tender flesh. Perhaps you dislike young meats. Do you dislike veal as well, and have you tried mutton instead?
Ryan Reed
Have not tried veal or mutton, but thanks for the perspective.
