Marmite/Vegemite.  Chocolate-covered cherries.

NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

chocolate covered cherries come second only to yuke in my book!

Perhaps there's a distinction to be made between cherry cordials and mere chocolate covered cherries.

Kill 'em all.

YEAH! And add to that ANYTHNG with artificial cherry flavor. Canned spinach. Chocolate-and-mint anything. YUCK! Skim milk. Why bother? Puffy white bread that sticks to the roof of the mouth. Cooks who turn suid to rubber.

Spray Oven cleaners[no brand names mentioned].I was assisting a cooking class years ago,and opened the oven door to an oven that had been sprayed but not cleaned afterward.My eyes were wide open,but my vision was GONE,totally black,for about one terrifying minute.The fact that marijuana[for instance] is illegal,while lots of people are using this scary stuff without care,is well.....typical.

No chocolate-mint?
oh, dear

Canned peas(not worthy of being called peas)
Miracle Whip
Chicken McNuggets(the promise of fried chicken that doesn't deliver)
Artificial strawberry flavor

[elyse]

I don't care what anyone says I like a lot of artificial flavors. Strawberry and cherry included. Well, certain cherry flavors. I like artificial watermelon and apple, but not when they're trying to make it like real apple. Flame away!

I too like chocolate mint, tk.

As for skim milk, whole milk feels like slimy and thick going down my throat these days. As a kid I would not touch skim unless threatened.

I agree with the Goober nastiness, Miracle Whip, and Cool Whip. Foul. In my book.

What the hell is emo?

What the hell is emo?

I'm glad you asked first, elyse! I thought I was the only one not in the know . . .

Oh, and I'm a chocolate/mint fan as well.

[elyse]

I knew I couldn't be the only one.

[cakewalk]

Yes. It always tastes like cough medicine.

Emo-emotional hardcore, a derivative of punk. Started in D.C. in the 70s/80s...though the stuff you find today is nothing of the sort that was actually listenable.

Thanks for enlightening us, nerissa.

Now I feel like an old fuddy-duddy . . .

But I do like a filet mignon. I like it a lot. Sorry.

Thanks Nero, I was wondering to think I was crazy for loving a nice charred rare filet Mignon and a nice cab...

Two of my favorite things!

sorry to get off track, but could you pm some examples? I thought this was RAEL rock...
I like cinnamon raisin toast, or golden raisins
I like a nice, pliable filet: it's a texture thing, like Taco Bowel Burritos
I like Andes mints and those girl-scout cookies
I like a nice cab too...especially without the rearview mirror pine tree (ba dum bum)
I wonder what all the processed foods would taste like without the "real, natural flavorings"...how to describe the unmasked flavors of guargum, polysorbate 80, and my personal favorite: xanthum. would it be like Matrix gruel?
I like the faux flavors of all Jolly Rancher candies: it's when they market them off as martinis that kills me.
Boo Miracle Whip
Boo Marshmallow
Boo McAnything

Emo music.

Hey, I like emo!

No need to get emotional about it.

Instant coffee (the kind where you put a spoonful into hot water).

Canned mushrooms are scary.

Early emo (or "emocore") originated in DC in '84 or '85 as nerissa said. Examples: Jawbreaker, Hot Water Music. Mainly former members of punk bands who felt limited by the constraints of punk music. Guitar-oriented, midtempo.

Late 80s "emo": Evergreen, Shotmaker, Ordination of Aaron. Mid-90s "post-emo": the great Sunny Day Real Estate .

Nowadays emo is difficult to define. Why anyone would want to try is beyond me.

Anyway, that yellow furniture-polish stuff they put inside of jelly doughnuts is scary.

Car-lot popcorn.

Don't knock Romilar till you've tried it.

Yes, but I can never get the char just as I want it!

I do too. So there. Maybe we're crazy, fellow Chicagoans...and that's why we have so much fun together.

Nero...to find the right char, just keep practicing!

What's wrong with Cool-Whip? It's the perfect accompaniment to Jello. Sometimes you just want pure junk food.

[elyse]

Tastes like plastic to me.

Car-lot popcorn.

Hey, for 3 weeks one winter that was my sole job!
(to make the popcorn at a car dealership)

bad, bad stuff!

[NeroW]

Nero, thanks for the emo def. 

What the hell is car-lot popcorn?

Car lot popcorn is the nasty cold yesterday's popcorn that I shove mindlessly into my mouth at my second job, which is at a car lot.

Is it from one of those "old time" poppers? Why don't they just buy bagged?

What!? And spoil the car lot ambience?

[elyse]

I have to get out more.

[Xanthippe]

Just stay away from car lots . . .

It's from one of those poppers. The smell, I believe, is supposed to induce shitty-car buying frenzy.
