      Burgers, sandwiches, kebaps, etc. Stay away with your stupid sauces. I want to taste the ingredients, not the sauce. No, not even your super fancy handmade burger sauce. The stupid thing about sauces is that you can't even take them off when you don't like them. They're sticky and smooth and get everywhere.

        I have unreasonable high standards for Mexican foods and their derivatives (TexMex, CaliMex, Burritos de Gringos, Jalisco, etc.)

          I see this from two different perspectives:

          1. There are some ingredients I just don't like the taste of. But, in some recipes and if prepared properly, I'm fine with them. Green beans are an example. I don't like them. But creamy green bean casseroles are fine and vegetable soup with green beans is totally acceptable.

          2. Then there are things like desserts that I'm picky about because if I'm going to screw up my metabolism and caloric intake for the day, it better damn well be worth it. I'm not going to waste my time on a substandard sugar and/or fat filled treat. I'm going to skip on that dry cake, jello salad, faux ice cream, fake chocolate sludge, etc.

            I just don't like the taste of. But,

            Don't give up yet. Once you find the right butt, you'll never want to taste anything else.

                Uni - when it's ultra fresh from a high quality sushi restaurant it can be mouthwateringly delicious, but if it's not just cracked open a minute ago then it quickly starts to taste like sewage

                    American BBQ. There're a lot of regional flavors and differences but most of them are bad in my opinion. Memphis dry rubs and Kansas City molasses sauces are my 2 favorites

                      Same, if I'm going to have the calories I'm going to make it worth it. That and the good stuff always leaves me feeling more satisfied with a smaller amount

                          Coleslaw. Mayonnaise has no business here, vinegar slaw or nothing.

                            Bagels. They MUST be toasted and topped with butter ONLY. It’s not that I don’t like cream cheese, it’s that I vastly prefer the taste of butter.

                            Of course, this all gets thrown out the window if we’re talking about some kind of bagel sandwich. Then whatever I like gets thrown on that thing, and toasting is optional.

                              I shouldn’t even have to say this, but graham cracker crust is an iron clad requirement. I bet a lot of you out there are reading this and thinking “well DUH”. I envy you.

                              I had a “cheesecake” that some idiot made in an ordinary pastry pie crust. Not enjoyable.

                                Pizza. I came to realize when I first started traveling that being from Connecticut and having easy access to extremely good New Haven, Greek, and New York style pizza is a luxury. It's my favorite food. Whenever I travel, I make sure to try the area's so-called "best" pizza for at least one of my meals. It is seriously pathetic what some regions consider good pizza.

                                  Bread, I guess.

                                  I don't like butter on bread.

                                  I don't like any sort of cheese, other than cream cheese, on bread.

                                  That's about it, really.

                                    I had some at my fav place that came from Maine. I almost gagged from a strong metallic taste.. yuck!

                                    They had more from Chile that was much better.

                                    I'll take that Quail egg, too.

                                      The best icecream isn't sold in stores, it's from little places that make it in-house. But the best I've found retail is Talenti Gelato.

                                        Give me this person's sauce.

                                        I want more sauce, I hate how dry these usually are. As much as it fits. Inject that thing into the buns.

                                          I'll chime in with water.

                                          There's so many different flavors of water. Just trying tap water in random places is such a different experience. Although I only specifically remember the worst. What the fuck was that bitter thing in Budapest.
                                          As for mineral waters, I definitely go for Budiš in a glass bottle, chilled.
