I was recently emailing with a friend and found out that she hates eggs---more specifically the yolks. She'll only eat whites. I was surprised and at first I thought, "How can you hate egg yolks?!? They're delicious!" But then I got to thinking about how some of my favorite and least favorite foods are a bit odd. I'm totally okay with people hating on food that I like, to each their own, right? However, I do take umbrage when someone rags on something I enjoy without having ever tried it before. You know the type-
"Hey, I bought his amazing liverwurst the other day."
"I hate liverwurst."
"Have you ever tried liverwurst?"
"Um, no- but I know I'll hate it!"
So, what are YOUR favorite and least favorite foods? My choices are pretty weird, so don't be shy....

* And although it's not technically a "food," I dislike diet soda of any kind. The aftertaste makes me want to gack.
