Huh? I get not liking the taste spices, or overwhelming cilantro taste. What worries you about the prep, as if that is universal?

NP here. Yeah, I don't get the concern over how it's prepped. Most Indian dishes are pretty well cooked, so I don't get the concern over preparation. Now, sushi is a different story. You have to worry more about prep with uncooked dishes.

Not to mention, if you are eating Indian vegetarian dishes, it is even less of an issue, because you don't have to worry about meat being undercooked. The vegetables and cheeses are pretty well cooked.

I'm Indian and agreed -- we cook food until it's dead. I'm not even kidding. Vegetables are cooked until they're limp -- so even if a restaurant isn't washing them, anything on them has been cooked to death. Same with meat -- you won't find medium/medium well meat in an Indian restaurant or home -- things are well done and beyond. Now if you're worried about whether the kitchen is sanitary -- well I get that as ethnic restaurants can be iffy but honestly that's true of Chinese, sushi etc. as well and you have to go to reputable places or places that have been reviewed a LOT.

Mangos. Cuz of that guy on SNL who was always smacking his own butt. Total turnoff for me.

I've been vegetarian for a long time; there are some meat items that seem appealing from time to time but mostly I have zero interest in the stuff most people like.

Cheesecake

Sushi (even the vegetarian rolls taste weird and fishy to me)

It's because of the seaweed wrap

Bananas - gag!

Sure. You can also have the parasitic worms that come in raw fish.

Sushi fish is frozen. Which kills parasitic worms.

Dislike cannoli, too. Love the others, though...
Not so thrilled with macaroons.

Sweet potatoes, marshmallows, scallops, lobster, duck, boiled or cooked fruit, pimento cheese.

I think I'm not alone in these, judging by other comments: mushrooms (the texture...blech!), oysters, mussels, and beer. I also don't order any type of boneless chicken in restaurants, because I have this fear of getting a bit of fat/gristle, and then it will ruin the entire dish for me. Fried chicken, or other chicken on the bone is fine, I can make sure I only eat the "good" parts.

I thought I ate everything and am extremely adventurous but Thanksgiving with the in laws reminded me that I hate
Egg salad
Soft boiled eggs
Corn ( the derivatives are fine but corn kernels make me ill)
American cheese (I eat every stinky cheese on the planet but cannot touch those gross slices. Don't even mention velveeta)

Cooked carrots are an abomination. I can choke them down if part of a good beef stew, but that's it.

I despise green beans. Despise.

Bananas. Goat cheese. Goat anything. It tastes like goat.

Quinoa. It looks like it has worms.

Squiishy food

Forgot to add olives and shrimp.

I could pretty much live off of this list for the rest of my life. If I could add maybe a green vegetable now and again.
I would do it without the peeps, diet soda, or green salads.
