Siriously? I'm Serious: I Do Not Like Green Eggs and Ham

Actually, I do. Actually, I've never had them. (I feel like the "Just Kidding" lady on SNL.) But I'm sure if Green Eggs and Ham were put in front of me I would happily devour them. I am not a picky eater. In fact, you will win a prize if you can find one thing on this planet that I do not like to eat. OTHER THAN, of course, THE one thing on this planet that I do not like to eat. Which is... drum roll...

I can recognize that that is a gorgeous photo, and yet it still makes me shiver. I can't look at it, I can't think about it. And yet I will eat a pumpkin muffin, a pumpkin cheesecake. Pumpkin in ravioli? I want it now. But the thought of pumpkin pie makes me sick to my stomach. It all roots back to a Thanksgiving I had as a child. I probably ate too much, felt sick the next day, and what was the last thing I ate that marinated in my brain as I lay there nauseous? That damn orange, fluffy piece of pie.

SO, for this week's Siriously? I'm Serious, tell me what you refuse to eat?

  1. Lima beans. Although, I recently was talking to my sister about how much she LOVES lima beans and I guess it might be time to give them another chance.

    And I don't eat chicken fried steak. Not that it isn't good, it's just that I have this mental picture of myself immediately blowing up to 400 lbs right after eating it.

  2. Mayo and sour cream. Funny, I just blogged about Mayo.

  3. Mushrooms. I love the way they smell, cooking in butter, but there is something about the texture that just squicks me out.
