Melons of any kind except Water-. This also includes cantelope. Don't know what it is, I just don't like the taste . . . don't know what's it's going for. Is it sweet, is it bland? Every time I make fruit salad, melon's not invited. And you know what? Mine gets cashed at every party, so I'm not the only sick-of-melon person out there.

Pumpkin anything. Can't eat it.

Olives. Love olive oil, can't eat olives.

Cooked beans or peas of any kind. Mom used to make me gag down lima, green and wax beans from a can . . . GOD those things smelled awful and tasted worse.

Refried beans. Again, what's with America's love for something that looks like runny shit?
