What the title says. Feel free to get into fierce food debates in the comments.

I have a good few unique dislikes, but the one I’ll mention here is Dr. Pepper. It tastes absolutely abominable, and I have no idea how everyone likes it. It’s just not good.

    All forms of cured pork. Ham. Bacon. Gammon. No thanks. (“Oh no! Not bacon!”)

    This isn’t for religious reasons either. Regular pork in a roast? Sausages, even? Yes please. But nothing cured.

    There’s something about the tanginess of cured pork that I really don’t like.

    And for whatever reason, the supermarkets here seem to stock 75% forms of ham and 25% everything else in the cold cuts / sandwich meats fridges.

    Occasionally, I’ve bought pork slices that didn’t look to be cured, but upon opening they’ve been more pink than I thought and had that tangy smell and taste. Bait and switch. If it’s ham, say so, goddammit.

    Will it kill me? No. Will I eat it if it’s all that’s available? Sure. (As I did with the aforementioned slices). Heck, I even almost enjoyed a cold BLT once (pre-cooked and cooled bacon isn’t as powerful somehow), but I’d really prefer not to.
