To the poster with the husband:  the foods you listed, especially the onions, are classic indicators that your husband has a form of IBS and needs to eat a low-Fodmap diet.  People who need a low-Fodmap diet need it because their small intestine cannot absorb the nutrients in high-Fodmap foods and it causes intestinal distress.

Take a look at this link for high-Fodmap foods (https://livinghappywithibs.files.wordpress.com/2014/04/high-fodmap-foods-to-avoid-by-fodmap-20140406.pdf).  Do you see any here that make your husband sick or that he avoids because he hates them?  The food hate may come from the fact that the foods make him feel sick or nauseous.  Do a search on the internet about Fodmap.  It may help your husband a lot.

Our daughter was diagnosed with this form of IBS and it has made a world of difference in her life now that I know what foods to avoid when I make meals for her.  It also helps to know that she isn't just a "picky" eater and that she was avoiding foods that she subconsciously knew would make her sick![/quote]

This was my mom. Real onions made her sick so they were removed from all recipes and replaced with dried onions, if the recipe truly needed onion flavor. [/quote]
