Taboo foods?

Almonds....they'll kill me.

Other than that, not really. 

While I wouldn't exactly call it "taboo," I don't eat fried foods.  Originally, I stopped just for health reasons, but now they don't appeal to me anyway.

The exception is that I will occasionally eat the fries at one particular local restaurant (they are hand cut and sliced like chips....mmmm). 

A big serving of Cold Stone Creamery..."Cookie doughn't you want some"...with light ice cream!

maybe not taboo, but definatly an oxy moron!

I don't eat hamburgers or fries at resturants because all the grease always makes me sick. I make my own home made version--maybe not quite as tasty, but much better for you.

STARBUCKS!!!!!!!!!  My stomach can't handle it, it's to strong for my stomach, if I have to drink coffee it has to be instant.

I once saw an interview with Arnold Swartzennegar and he was asked what to eat to stay healthy.  His answer was very simple:

"If it tastes good...stay away from it.  If it tastes bad...eat lots of it!"

My list of taboo foods is a bit smaller that it was a few yeas ago...there was food I would never even think of going near, but now I have learned that I can eat them without freaking out

Avocado was a major onr, but i eat it now

things I will never eat:

Pizza, Chinese food, fast food of any kind..no subway, taco bell etc...I might eat ice cream 1 time a year, but I do like desserts..mostly cookies and cake, but rarley eat it. 

No fried foods at all...and bottled salad dressing -yuk!!!

It helps that I cook for a living so I have everything at my fingertips to make a heathy meal when I need to.  I eat mostly a vegetarian meal, but will add some meat/seafood if i ened the protien.

You wouldn't even eat a delicious home-made pizza? Pizza doesn't have to be "bad" for you at all - if you do it at home, you control the ingredients. With whole wheat dough (thin crust), a lot of fresh veggies, a light brushing of olive oil, freshed crushed tomatoes instead of tomato sauce and any kind of non-fat, and/or soy-derived cheese you want (if dairy is bad), it wouldn't be bad at all. In fact, it's quite well balanced, esp. if you added some beans for protein. Pizza here in the US is NOT how pizza is in real Italian cooking. American pizza IS crap - albeit delicious crap

Thanks for the advice....I try really hard not to label foods as "bad"or "good" and I totally get how to make a pizza healthy (I'm a chef).... but it has nothing to do with that... It is too much dough no matter what.  I barely eat sandwiches even on whole grain bread...and it's not like I eat a low-card  diet...I just don't/can't stand the feeling of the dough sitting in my stomach...

It goes way beyond just that, but not something I am willing to post and talk about.
