My lunch is now with people who like vegemite. Vegemite for those of you who do not know what vegemite is let me explain. It is an unholy concotion that smells crap and is loved by all aussies. You should try it.
So in order to poke some discussion, what foods can you not stand even though as a culture you should.
This is just a hate/rant post

Is Vegemite marmite? Yeast extract etc.? Because I love marmite.
As an Englishman, I actually cannot think of any typically "English" foods or drinks that I dislike. I like fish and chips (others may recognise them by the term "fries", but chunkier), Sunday dinner, Full English breakfasts, tea, crumpets, I'd probably like scones if I tried one, muffins, crackers and cheese (as popularised by Wallace and Gromit) and pasties.

Yes, Vegemite is a yeast extract spread, and it tastes like AWESOME on toast. (just DONT eat it by the spoon full!! YOUVE BEEN WARNED)
I like Vegemite, bbq's, meat pies, emu is nice too. Apparently kangaroo and crocodile are good to (yet to try)
one thing i dont like are Pavlovas.

As an American, I love fried everything. Something about an oily bread-like covering on everything just appeals to me. Fried Twinkies, fried chicken, fried pickles... yum.

Even though I am Canadian, I hate maple syrup. It also seems like everyone I know loves seafood too, and I can't stand it. The only seafood I'll eat is canned tuna, as it doesn't really taste like fish, and has the same texture as chicken.

Sour cream, crab cakes, onions, zuchini, mustard, twinkies, coffee, and meat loaf. Hate 'em all.

I'm not Japanese, but...
nattou.
nattou.jpg
I ordered this at a small Japanese restaurant in Denver. I'd heard about it -- fermented soybeans, essentially -- thought I'd give it a try.
"I'd like to try the nattou," I said to the Japanese waiter.
"No, you wouldn't," he deadpanned.
He was right. :/

I'm not particularly gone on potatoes. They're alright at best.

Head Cheese... I tried it just to be sure I would not like it and sure enough I did not like it.
Its not really cheese, but it has 'Head' in the name for a reason.
This is really one of the few foods I dislike though, besides this and a few other select foods I am very happy with a lot of food and honestly can't really say what I love the most.

"American" fare has LOTS of yucky foods. I strongly dislike American cheese, peanut butter and pizza. And though it's not specific to the US by any means, I vomitously detest green (or any other color) bell peppers.

I thought American cheese was very, very bad, and no self-respecting enjoyer of cheese was supposed to like it? At least, I know it's absolutely nothing like what would be considered cheese in Europe, with the exception of states like Wisconsin.

I've had some pretty amazing, non-factory made American cheese before.

Fiddle with the recipe to your tastes. You can't go wrong!

Sometimes, it's just the texture called for.
