Used to love bread and dripping on a sunday night! Also love yorkshire pud with currents in, smothered in strawberry jam (yummy). Also have Butternut Squash every week - delicious! Quite brave at trying out new foods, but could never, ever eat : Heart, Brains, sweetbreads, eyes, brawn, tripe, haggis, eels, snails. I have tried but will never be (knowingly) eating the following again : Kidneys, prawns, winkles, cockles, whelks, mussels, lobster, crab, hummous, taramasalata, black pudding, white pudding, Weightwatchers chocolate brownies, squid, octopus, grapefruit, celery, plain chocolate, natural yoghut, cottage cheese, jelly (any flavour) & probably lots more!

As a child, the smell of cofee roasting in a shop in Croydon made me feel ill. These days I like the smell and actually drink cofee, but can't stand instant. David |

Too many things I've not eaten to mention, mostly because the thought of them makes me feel sick. I can agree with others re bread & dripping though, lovely, especialy if dipped in the juices from a hot joint of beef. Butternut squash roasted round the sunday joint is delicious, as is Guinea Fowl. Vivienne |

Never tried veal and will not on principle - read (when I was about 7) how they obtained it and it stuck with me. Ann |
