Skin-on chicken
Goat cheese and goat milk.
Allllll the other stinky/moldy disgusting cheeses, starting with Blue cheese. Also toss in Feta, because while it doesn't strictly fit into either of the categories above, it's still vile, and ruins anything it's put into (which is seemingly everything)


Enjoy your Velveeta!


LOL! Naw, there are plenty of non-disgusting, non-stinky, real cheese options.

I don't get people who eat chicken without the skin, except in certain recipes. But why order fried chicken and remove the skin? That's the best part!

I do hear you on the OJ and cheeses though.

+1000. It was my FIL's favorite meal so we went out for it literally countless time. I'd sit there gagging watching him it a gelatinous, bleeding chunk of flesh, and just want to run away. In 20 years of this he never once asked why I always got the Caser salad.


Ummm … it’s not “bleeding.”

I only like it if I can get an end piece with all of that maillard. Or if it is blackened. And I love horseradish.

Fruit and chocolate do not belong together, nor does chocolate belong with sweet cream cheese. There is no raspberry chocolate cake, chocolate covered oranges or zebra brownies in my world.

Also, banana based anything is disgusting, e.g. banana bread. Bananas eaten as a fruit are fine but as an ingredient, yuck.


Oooh I've been craving olive loaf lately. Olives in bologna? Yes please.


I’m good with olives. The bologna not so much.

A medium-rare slice of prime rib is utterly satisfying in every way. It’s meaty, savory, fatty, and completely satiating. I hope that answers your question.

Do you often question people about their meal choices?


Did I pose a question in my post?

You raised one: "How does she not know what 'gelatinous' means?"

I 100% agree. Never go to tasting menu restaurants after being disappointed a couple of times.

From another thread, wasabi. It's unnecessary.

Chicken skin gets crispy and keeps the meat moist. It's not optional.

His lack of interest in your dietary choices reflects normal behavior from a civilized, adult male.
