I used to love Mt. Dew and haven't had one now in over 2 yrs., I'm sure it would still taste good to me but it's not worth it.
Foods I know I won't eat anymore because I think it's disgusting now is:
Kentucky Fried Chicken
Taco Bell
Fried potatoes or french fries
Donuts or Cinnamon Rolls
Any type of candy bar
Chinese Food (I did try it and it was disgusting).
I simply can't stand grease anymore. The two times I've had pizza in over 2 yrs., I had to blot the grease off with my napkin.
Potato chips and salty snacks are a complete turn-off for me now.
Gosh, I still can't imagine finding peanut butter gross. It's on the "just can't have it in the house because I will eat it all straight from the jar, several potions at a time" list.
I can't stand any kind of pre-packaged baked good that contains a lot of preservatives. (However the homemade stuff still tastes really good, darn it!) I never liked much fast food, but pizza is still extremely tempting. I wish more foods tasted gross to me!
I really miss and actually crave fresh fruits and vegetables and lean meats if I skip those things for a few days. Comparing my staples of teenager-hood - pizza, pasta, sweets, diet coke - to what I eat now, and I do enjoy the food I eat, is like night and day. I don't necessarily dislike what I used to eat but I do like the very different things I eat now. At least I've trained my tongue to be happy eating healthier foods as well as the junky ones.
I seem to stumble on new dislikes every day! It's almost like my tongue is no longer wired to my brain! I'll remember something that tasted good.....I'll fix it or buy it.....I'll eat it and suddenly I get this ewwww! That's icky! Two things that did it to me this week:
Velveeta~(my kids love grilled cheese using Velveeta--DH and I usually eat a different variety). While making their sandwiches, I sliced a slice to eat and YUCK! How did I used to eat this?
margarine~I was spreading this on our corn on the cob before microwaving it and there was a little left on the knife which I then licked off and again! ICK!
Hmmm, I don't have too many, but like Megan, prepackaged pastries so don't appeal to me any more. Donuts don't either, and when I did eat a previous favorite, my stomach felt awful. DH decided to make hot cereal for us last week, and didn't realize how much I'd cut down the salt when I make it, and used the amount on the package - boy it was nearly inedible. But I could probably eat a lot of things I used to have and still enjoy them - I just pass them by.... Sigh.
I had a hard time with this question too. I wanted to say perogies ... but no, I'd like some. I still eat the odd donut.
Maybe butter ... I can get a nice flavour without getting things all greased up now.
I'm trying to think about this. I've always been a somewhat picky eater, so in general, I always felt that a fair amount of things were gross. I always found packaged baked goods a little freaky. I always have found it odd that a baked good could spend two months in a bag at room temperature. The ones that I've tasted always have a weird aftertaste -- I must be sensitive to the preservatives.
I just hate "regular" peanut butter which I used to eat by the spoonful right out of the jar. It has the weirdest consistency to me now.
Me too! It's seriously like eating peanut-flavored Crisco. I think my flip from Jif to natural PB is my biggest taste change.
As for fast food, absolutely none of it is appealing to me now. I even think fast food salads are gross because of the poor quality of greens and overprocessed, oversalty chicken breast. I liked Wendy's fresh fruit bowls in a pinch, but they're gone now.
I'm still overweight but just cannot eat Kentucky Fried Chicken, poutine or those darned salt-laden frozen chicken breasts! I have really become salt sensitive. I used to love KFC and poutine and used the chicken boobs for convenience.
Hmmm, There's not much that I don't still like the taste of. Regular PB with sugar is one, and those chicken nuggets things from fast food restaurants is the other. I had one of my daughters a couple of months ago and it was nasty. Just deep fried breading with chicken flavoring added to it. N-A-S-T-Y
I'm not a maintainer yet, but I find that there are already things that I can't eat. I use to sit with a bag of Oreos and watch tv. Now, even one is too sweet for me and tastes funny. I can't eat fried chicken at all, just looking at it makes my stomach turn. We got some last weekend because the kids were wanting it and ended up throwing it all away but the two pieces they ate. Their tastes are changing too! Before it would have been gone in a flash. French fries use to be a staple in my diet, but now I find that I still like them here and there, but in very small doses and not very often. If they're too salty I'm done, where I would have just eaten them anyway before.
