I dont like any fruits or veggies, i dont like cheese, but i do like pizza cheese. I am a very very peeky person.
ok i only like applesauce as fruit. but i like quite a bit of vegetables. i want to like fruit but it’s scary to me
YESS! Plz share some recipes! I’m trying to lose weight, but I’m struggling to find food recipes and ones that I actually like… I really want to change, but that’s really hard when I gag even if I smell a vegetable.
There’s this sparkling flavoured water I think called AHA (idk that’s what the letters look like) that no matter what flavour it’s never strong enough and theres some sort of gross flavour that I compare to gasoline lol. I think it’s the flavour from carbonation.
Bc unlike pop, it’s not syrup, there’s barely any flavour to overpower that gross carbonation flavour.
I heard people drank carbonation water bc they’re trying to get OFF of pop. It just made me want it more.
Yeah. I just had a veggie burger. It wasn’t fun. But I’m going to try the rest of your tips. I’m really trying to eat healthy again. Currently I’m also feeling a lot of nervous energy from detoxing off sodas and sugar. It’s been two weeks but if I can make it longer and live healthier, it’ll be worth it. Thanks for being on YouTube!
I always gag when I eat them… I’m 18.
That’s is not good��
I try them ALL the time. Yet, it still grossed me out…
It’s so annoying and I really just want to lose weight. But how can I when I hate eating them ����
“you should try roasting your veggies” Me: you SUCK, cooked pepper, noone loves you!!!
Thank you so much I mean I’m kinda fat:( so ima start doing exercise also I’ll do my best
I really struggle with food, I have since a young age. I got really sick as a baby which affected my diet and I missed the textures phase as a baby. My diet is AWFUL, I just eat unhealthy snacks all the time or don’t eat at all. I think I also have some sort of eating disorder. IM A MESS, I hate food so so much I just always feel sick when I eat
My mom was like “bro, how can you swallow cum and not eat tomatoes”
I despise the taste and texture of veggies, cauliflower makes me gag just thinking of it, but I’ve never tried doing other things with them this was very helpful
I’m really fascinated by Japan and other East Asian countries, but I don’t like fish (I think fish sauce if the grossest thing ever). So I’ll try my best to start eating more of it! Thank you for the motivation! <33
Her roasted vegetable sheet pan looked good as hell ngl. I might have to do that.
My parents/aunties or any grown up in my family would force me to eat vegetables and I once puked in a cup and yeah I don’t know why I hate them I need helllpp I don’t wanna have diabetes
I’m pretty picky, so I’ve been trying to get myself to eat more foods. I like most fruitsstrawberries, blueberries, pineapple, mango, kiwi, dragonfruit, blackberries, raspberries. You name it. I’m really big on texture, so I like the taste of banana, but I hate the texture and I can never eat it. I also hate tomatoes. I can’t eat raw tomatoes. I can eat them in different ways but not raw. With vegetables, I’m pretty much the same. Hate the texture of onion but love the flavor. So I’m trying really hard to incorporate these foods into my diet. Thank you for this video:’)
I am SO glad im not alone!. I don’t know of anyone else who like me hates vegetables.. not only the taste but its often a texture thing with me.. I would LOVE to be one of those people who looks at a salad or something with lots of tomatoes etc and says “omg that looks so good its making my mouth water” well wait.. it DOES make my mouth water but.. not in a good way lol
I’m still struggling, I’m fine eating vegetables just as long as it’s by itself. Soups, stir fry, stew are the worst for me ��
I hate 90 percent of vegetables. Can’t stand beets, olives, brussel sprouts, peas, baked beans, coleslaw and the list goes on ��. Now I can eat any type of meat, fruit and I love carbs!
im 10 and my mum wants me to eats vegetables and fruit. i hate vegetables my favorite fruit is: watermelon (sometimes) grapes, strawberries, sour apples ik this isnt a fruit well vegetable and fruit i loveeeeeeeeee cucumbers. ( i used to love oranges i havent tried them in ages they may be bad at first but i may like it soon) ill try it:)
It’s texture more than taste for me, but it’s taste as well for things like cruciferous vegetables. I would know there is kale in a smoothie because it’s bitter and takes over. It’s like chewing aspirin.
Thx for this video very helpful loved the smoothie one I never liked vegetables
Since I was about 4 I convinced my self that vegetables and fruit were disgusting and horrible so now no matter how hard I try I can’t swallow them
Great point about how many of us have been served vegetables that were overcooked (their color changes can indicate that before we even feel the texture). That’s common in many diners and chain restaurants. I don’t like boiled vegetables (except corn), but roasted is doable. So is lightly stir-fried. The best carrots and squash I ever tasted were prepared in a Thai restaurant. I still eat vegetables mostly raw, and I make lazy-day gazpacho with tomato juice, minced cucumbers and bell pepper, garlic, and fresh salsa (from a tub, not jar).
Kenia:just force urslef to eat it even if u dont want to
Me:ok its torture time T_T
I wanna thank you for this video, because of It I’m in LOVE with oranges and strawberries
I love all fruits, but its a different story with vegetables, I can eat like vegetable soup like it’s not the taste that bothers me it’s the consistency so I dont really know what to do
1:13 Okay here goes nothing…
“You SUCK vegetables. NO ONE LIKES YOU. Nothing about you is appetizing. You shouldn’t even show your face around here. Gross!”
I remember my health teacher freaking out when i said i have never tasted squash before and i’m already 19
Ok I’m probably gonna piss you off a bit and I’m sorry. But everything you said is completely impossible for so many people. The texture the taste the smell. It goes in hand with even most fruits. I am on a journey. I struggle with ibs. My whole life my family would try to get me to eat vegetables and fruits and I throw them up. In smoothies, hidden in ways like cauliflower mash potatoes or banana pancakes. I can’t stand them. And I’ve met so many others that struggle with this too and end up suffering because they aren’t able to get the nutrients they need. The only solution is to hide the vegetables in a way we don’t know of yet. Cook these health foods into safe foods. Idk how but I’m gonna find a way. Its completely debilitating to feel like there’s no way to be healthy and everyone recommends the same things that don’t work. I thank you for trying to help but the problem is so much bigger than cooking vegetables in a tastier way or hiding them in a smoothie when most people that can’t eat vegetables can’t drink smoothies either bc of the texture.
I don’t think their Gross, but i vomit everytime i try them.
Im a 32 year old man and ive never liked veg apart from potates, funny thing is i like certain soups and theres mixed veg in that but ive never liked the taste of veg in my mouth
I hate vegetables. I do love smoothies with them though. Which is what I want to do. Have my days worth of vitamins and veggies in a smoothie then having things like salads for the rest of the day. I also sadly hate the taste of grilled food in general. Especially chicken. So instead I bake lightly breaded chicken tenders and chop them up and put them in a healthy salad. I’m also gonna focus on fitness too which for me someone extremely picky will simply have to do more than the normal person.
Well I wonder if I’ll ever enjoy eating again. I changed my diet to mainly vegetables/fruits/nuts/rice etc and vegan, but eating vegetables is a challenge for me. I don’t dislike them but once I start eating I get nausea and just scarf it down to get over with it. I tried different ways but it keeps tasting the same. It drives me crazy. No sugar, no flour, no nothing… anything that tasts good I had to cut out of my life. And now it feels like even the last little spark for food is gone, too. Id prefer to not eat anymore vs forcing myself to scarf down these damn vegetables…
