Intolerances

[Park Kraken]

I thought it would be fun to list the food intolerances, or the foods that we can't eat without having some kind of an allergic reaction to.

For me, I can't drink straight up milk, although I can handle chocolate or eggnog, or dipping cookies into milk. I also can't handle most kinds of chicken, about the only kind of chicken I can eat without getting an upset stomach is oven baked chicken. All the other cook methods have upset my stomach.

EDIT: I also have a low alcohol tolerance. I can only drink about a single wine cooler or half of one before I have to cut it off or get sick.

[Dasquian Belargic]

I don't have any allergies.. that I know of. :uhoh

Unless you count tequila. That makes me throw up. But I have to drink quite a lot of it before I oh wait

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I don't have any food allergies.

I dislike sweet and sour stuff though. :x

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Same with Jen here.

Except for the one I discovered and has forever been rather odd to me... which was Hi*C's uhh "Ecto Cooler" flavor.
How could something associated with Ghost Busters be bad, I thought? But it failed me... :(
Got sick as hell...

Same here.

[Ryan Pode]

I have no food allergies but I refuse to eat seafood.

I am so intrigued about what this tasted like.

[Morgan Evanar]

Pork gives me digestive misery.

[Ryan Pode]

The Ecto Cooler was green flavor.

[Mandy with an I]

I have lots of food issues, but most of them are texture/smell ones >_>; Milk and tomato sauce usually makes my stomach upset though.

The only weird allergy I have (IMO) is to band-aids.

[Charley]

I have no food allergies, but there are a few things I will decline to eat unless there are mitigating circumstances.

I don't care for cauliflower. I've never had it prepared in such a way that it didn't have the mouthfeel of styrofoam, and that's very offputting. I hear cream of cauliflower soup is okay and it might be, but the whole stuff just doesn't do it for me. That's a shame because Aloo Gobi tastes good at least, and I want to like that dish. I'm sure there's an Indian place out there that makes passable cauliflower, just haven't found it yet.

I love raw oysters, but I generally will not order them at a place that is more than a two hour drive from the coast, because if they're anything other than fresh you're taking a risk. Now, if it's a nice place and they do something crazy like fly them in daily or something, I might do that, but I've never found the urge.

I love caviar / fish roe, but certain kinds are a bit off to me. Flying fish roe, like is common in makisushi, doesn't taste pleasant to me, and is a mess in general. Salmon roe tastes good, but I don't like the big eggs.

"American" cheese tastes like nothing. It's just yellow fat with salt and protein added I think. Pick a better cheese to call "American", since there are a lot of really nice ones that actually are made here.

I can't smell, much less taste cinnamon schnapps without feeling queasy. This is something that stems from a really bad experience about ten years ago.

[Captain Untouchable]

I used to be allergic to marmite when I was 6 or 7. I carried on eating it though; showed that pesky immune system of mine what-for. :smokin

It's not a food allergy, but I am allergic to dust. Feels like my head is going to explode every time someone switches the vacuum cleaner on, or does an excessive amount of cleaning / tidying. :x

[Crusader]

Vodka is my kryptonite but sometimes I can't resist...

[Charley]

That is unusual. I can't imagine somebody having an issue with vodka unless they had an overall dislike of alcohol in general.

[Droo]

Ah, I'm exactly the same. Back in the day, when I first started going out drinking, I used to drink red Aftershock so much because I thought it was a good idea to get so drunk I saw thrice and vomited on churches. What can I say, I was sweet sixteen. Anyway, I reached my elastic limit for cinnamon alcohol tolerance back then and cannot smell it without feeling ill.

[Jesimae Lawson]

I am allergic to chocolate. Why? I don't know. Buddy, talk about me not caring, I will eat chocolate anything! Give me a chocolate cake and I will eat the shit out of it...oddly enough...the cake will then give me the shits. TMI? Sorry!! But it is like clockwork, if I eat it not less than five minutes after I have to run to the bathroom and contemplate on what I have done haha!

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I am allergic to neosporin.

[Wyl Staedtler]

Most dairy kicks my ass - I've been on medication since I was a kid so I can digest it. Any quantity of meat (or stock made from it) makes me very, very ill - bloating, fever, vomiting. It's grody to the max.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Lactose intolerant checking in.

[Pierce Tondry]

I really hate blacks and asians.

Wait, wrong thread.

There are very few things I cannot handle. Oddly enough breaded turkey stuffing is one of them. Something about the seasoning used is enough to cause me to reject it.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Pretend racism leads to real racism. :mad

[Droo]

Don't be racist to pretend racists, you racist!

[Pierce Tondry]

No wonder I'm starting to think zombies - excuse me, "living impaired" - should go to separate-but-equal schools.

To be honest, the title of this thread had me thinking "is this seriously a thread about hate?" before I read it. /hijack

Another wierd thing I can't handle is whole pickles. Like, pickle juice is okay (even flavorful) and cucumbers are just fine, but somehow whole pickles I cannot eat.

Don't ask me, I have no idea.

[Sanis Prent]

Pretend racism leads to real racism. :mad

Thanks Yoda.

[Morgan Evanar]

Pretend racism leads to real racism. :mad

Thanks Yoda.QIYD.

[Anne Phoenix]

/hijack

Pretend farts leads to real laughter. :p

[Jesimae Lawson]

Even reading the word "Fart" makes me laugh. Oh...funny stuff.

[Peter McCoy]

I have an intolerance to rare/medium-rare steak. Never had it - I just refuse to. It has to be well done, and preferably butterflied. I guess you could say I have an intolerance to undercooked food (even if it's a normal, particular cooking method to have it undercooked - if there's a cremated option, thats what I'm having.)

And then comes the peppercorn sauce.

But if I see any pink in my steak my whole body goes to Condition 1. (Yes, I've been watching Battlestar Galactica and loving it!)

I remember when I was on holiday in Tenerife and I ordered fillet steak in this primarily Italian restaurant. I stuck my fork in it and it died right there on the plate.

:x

I sent it back.

Once I had a steak that was cooked right, I had one of the nicest steaks I've ever had.

Oh, and I have an intolerance to rice pudding. Once more, I'm capable of consuming it, but I refuse to. Yuck!

Other than that, I have quite a wide taste in food with no ill-effects.

[Khendon Sevon]

I can't do extreme spice.

I'm sorry, I like to be able to taste my food, not have my tongue on fire while trying to figure out where the nearest extinguisher is.

That being said, I throw a little red pepper into a lot of things I cook. I'm fine with there being a subtle kick, or even a noticeable one. I just don't want the heat of the dish to detract from its other ingredients.

[Miranda Tarkin]

Knock on wood, I don't have any food allergies. However, sometimes straight up milk and onions can ream my stomach and give me such cramping gas that it sucks. Ice cream, yogurt, and cheese really don't bother me. I can usually drink half a glass of milk and I'm ok, 2% tho!

Other then that, I really don't mind eating anything or trying things at least once. Only a couple of things I'm not a fan of and one is liver, and I've tried it grilled, chopped etc. Not a big meat person. If it steaks, pork chops or what not, I need it cooked a certain way or be a prime cut in order for it to taste good on my tongue :mneh

I will agree on spices. I'm good with mild and -some- hot, but I don't need to calm down a big fire in my mouth if I can't taste the food.

[Darven]

No allergies to any food, but I generally don't like tomato sauce and green kiwi (as opposed to raw tomatoes and gold kiwi, which I don't have a problem with).
