Does anyone here hate Balsamic vinegar?

Newp.

I love it

[quote]What ingredient turns you off?

Very few. I'm a vegetarian and don't like anything too spicy, though.

I find baby tastes off-putting.

Tarragon is disgusting.

Modena balsamic vinegar is the only kind of vinegar I DON'T hate. All the other ones (like the yucky apple cider vinegar) smell and taste horrible to me.

Love tarragon too. I was in Georgia last year (the country, not the shithole US state) and they actually have a fizzy, tarragon-flavored drink called "tarkhuna" there. It tastes very sweet and very artificial but I couldn't get enough of it.

Coconut water. Reminds me of dog drool.

Aged balsamic vinegar from Italy tastes nothing like cheap balsamic vinegar. It’s not as tart. And less is more just like truffles.

Persimmons.

Mushrooms.

Egg salad (and deviled eggs) and anything involving organ meats

[quote] Reminds me of dog drool.

But we thought you loved the taste of dog drool?

I'll eat anything. The one food I always hated -- mushrooms -- I now love.

That said, I've always been kind of turned off by cantaloupe/mussmelon/honeydews. And cottage cheese grosses me out a little. But that's about it.

Yes! I hate it as well, OP!

I’d rather eat a salad without it.

fake/crap/industrial "balsamic vinegar" purchased in crap American supermarkets? Yeah I hate it too.

God yes, I hate that stuff.

Oregano.

And I love Italian food, so I always have to ask if something was made with oregano.

I love it and want to marry it!

Coriander/Cilantro

Too fragrant.

Sun-dried tomatoes!

Water chestnuts!

margarine ruins mostly everything.

R20 that stuff is basically plastic! “Good for your heart”… BS

yellow mustard sun dried tomatoes or jalapenos (not too hot for me, just hate the taste) malt vinegar ranch dressing

Mercury, manganese, and arsenic. BLECH!

Raisins!

Avoid Greek food R16.

tilapia and surimi

Balsamic doesn't work as a douche.

Branston's pickle

I hate it it’s too sweet. I prefer plain red wine vinegar.

I don’t like ANY desserts 🧁 with BOOZE 🥃 in them.

Only the cheap stuff.

You must be fat.

I'll bet you hate roundabouts as well.

[quote]Coriander/Cilantro

I have the gene variant that gives it a soapy taste: I don't like it but I can live with some of it in my plate, like its relative parsley.

The only ingredient I find abhorrent is aniseed. I was once offered a Pastis and I only had to bring that glass to my lips, I wanted to vomit. That was.a business meeting but thank God the guy went out of his office for a little while so I spilled half the glass into his plants to make it look like I had been able to summon the courage to drink at least a tiny bit of it. I always wonder whether the plants survived.

Aniseed Green peppers Jalapeno

I love all kinds of vinegar and pretty much anything fermented, really. My biggest “yuck, can’t eat it” food is cucumber. The flavor makes me gag. Same with cantaloupe and honeydew—there is a crossover in taste from the aldehydes in each of them. My dad and brother have the same revulsion, so it must be hereditary.

No I love it snd don’t buy any for less than $10 a bottle

mine costs 30 a bottle so its better than yours

Malted milk chocolate. I ate it as a kid because its as candy and I threw up.

Watermelon

Parsley

Coriander

Raw tomato

Mushrooms

They're all dead to me.

I hate broccoli. It makes me double over with stomach pain.. However, I love cabbage, collards, kale, radishes, turnips, and kohlrabi…

I, but I hate you

Love it, but I also use it as an after shave

Not a big fan. Depends how it’s used and its quality. Also not big on cilantro and as far as I’m concerned truffle oil ruins everything.

R40 I'm with you on raw tomato. And I don't like wine --which is embarrassing since I'm half-Italian and half-Greek. (Maybe I'm adopted.)

Interesting R16, as here in Florida I have to ask them for oregano when I order pizza.

R36: no cucumber, pickles, nor relish for me.

I like oil and balsamic vinegar as a bread dip vs. butter.

Tapenade is gross.

Gurllll

I loathe anything with dill or caraway seeds involved.

Excess amounts of garlic. And pasta without filling, wasted calories. Ironic for someone part Italian.

Sun-dried tomatoes have no flavor and are hard to chew.

Ha, R19, I just had a skirt steak stir-fry with broccoli and water chestnuts. Very tasty.

So what’s the difference between oyster sauce and oyster-flavored sauce? That’s all I could find at the Wally World.

🤷🏻‍♀️

Even getting a stray whiff of blue cheese makes my gorge rise.

ah-CHAY-toe ball-SAHM-ee-koh

It’s delicious! It comes in many flavors! It’s made in big, bad scary California!

Copious use of herbs in some prepared foods have spoiled herbs a bit for me. Think too much sage in turkey sausage that you taste for the next few hours, basil in mixologist cocktails and rosemary in too many crackers. No subtlety.

I like balsamic vinaigrette.

I won’t touch anything with mushrooms in it.

I like balsamic vinegar. I do not like cilantro or capers.

R11, Greg, as a child, my mom used to raise a herd of Newfoundland dogs out on Winthrop’s MA beaches, and those dogs would leave long, pearly drops of dog drool EVERYWHERE. Roommate spilled a carton of coconut water that looked just like it awhile back, no thanks!

Allspice

Marzipan, even anything remotely associated with marzipan.
