It might be psychosomatic. If it helps however, just know that when you're eating a mushroom those are it's reproductive organs.Scorched_Cascade said:
What food don't you eat for reasons unrelated to taste or allergy?

I don't take anything with caffeine in it, or hot drinks period.
I also don't eat mushrooms because of the texture, not the taste.

Mangoes.
I am allergic to Mangoes... found that out after an eight hour job with my dad picking Mangoes all day. Someone suggested to me that it was the sap I was allergic to and that's what caused the reaction but truthfully... I'm not game to ever check.
I spent an entire week looking like Brundlefly, I'm never going never Mangoes. Ever.

I refuse to eat certain canned vegetables. Like canned beats or canned greenbeans. It's all about how it's prepared. Fresh and frozen vegetables are all so much more healthy and taste a world better than vegetables that have been soaking in water and heavy salt for a few years.
Beats as a whole are also nasty in general.
I also don't like peanut butter. I'll eat it from time to time, but I generally do not enjoy the taste.
On the by, there are organic chicken farms out there. Ones where the chickens are fed good things and aren't kept immobile most of their life. These chickens are also not genetically modified to the point that they cannot walk. Look for them and support those people. It may be more expensive on the whole for less meat, but the meat tastes so much better.

Who's they exactly? The only reason you're going to see some animals treated better is because:CrazyMedic said:
1) they produce better quality meat which there's a market for (i.e. free range goods, kobe beef etc.)
2) there's legislation saying that you aren't allowed to battery farm things
3) there's a public image to uphold
Pigs, one of the most intellegent creatures after humans, are kept in pens which barely give them enough room to turn around. Those which aren't going to be fat enough when it comes time for harvest are killed at birth. Their deaths might be painless, but they're undignified and unnecessary.
Economically you're still going to go for quantity over quality. If the pig gains an extra £10 in value from keeping it in a pen which would otherwise contain 4 pigs already at a base value of £50 then you're going to be losing a lot of money, not only in loss of end revenue but also in the costs of production such as buying them higher quality food, providing better lighting etc.
Even free roaming animals have to have costly injections to stop them getting sick, they're sitting on largely unused fallow land which is expensive and it's harder to control breeding to create super cows for the next season.
If you want we could bring in the global warming arguement, that cattle farms actually produce more harmful greenhouse gasses then cars do, since the huge amount of methane that animals produce is stronger and more damaging then the CO2 emisions cars give off, but I know there's always going to be controversy when bringing this up.
Overall there's almost no rational reason for us not to give up meat. I would like to think humanity has grown to a mature enough level by now that we can actually start changing societal norms rather then living in a state of myopia which is headed for a worse future.
I'll eat almost anything I don't have to cook myself honestly -_-; (human meat excluded.)
I do tend to avoid boiled potatoes; having one Irish and one Swedish parent meant we ate a lot of potatoes when I was little and mostly boiled. Urgh. And the Irish kind, the floury dry kind? Double-urgh.
My brother-in-law wouldn't eat sausages for years because he worked for a while at one of Sweden's biggest butchers, Scan. He felt sick thinking about what went in them and he ain't the squeamish kind. You're welcome Swedish Escapists!

I can't hack any kind of fish. Nothing to do with taste. I just remember going on a fishing trip some years ago and being the only one who caught a fish. When I reeled it into the boat, I saw it stuggling so hard to breath and thought "Christ...If that was a human, I would have just murdered someone".
I don't eat any seafood and I avoid most meats as well. Just because now I'm older I feel mean eating some meats, which I know makes me a hypocrite since I still eat chickens, pigs, lamb and cows....and turkeys but very rarely.
There are lots of exotic foods that I do not eat because they're hard to come by.
I have no other reasons than taste, availability and health to go after when buying/eating food, so other than that, there's nothing.
Oh, and I normally don't eat fast-food because I find it slightly repulsive.

I don't eat chicken not because I am against how they farm it, but because I HATE the texture of it. It feels like stringy rubber.
I dont eat duck, it just feels so wrong to me.
Dont ask me why or how, it just fucks up my brain to put it in my mouth
