Whoever heard of liver on a pizza?? <G>

Not me! I can't even stand SEEING it in the grocery!

Ugh -- horrible memories of our once or twice a year liver meal

I can't stand it either.
But oddly I like the smell of liver and onions being cooked. Go figure.
My body rejects it immediately.
One time as a wee kid it was served and I said I didn't like it.
Eat it or go hungry. (That was the option at every meal: eat it or go hungry).
I forced down a bite or two and threw it at the table.
Never had to eat it again.
The ONLY way I can force it down, if at a party and they have pate, is to chew the cracker once or twice and immediately wash it down with champagne. That is only done to not offend the host.

God dug into His robes & pulled out a coin, flipped it to Peter & said, "Give him back his two bits & tell him to go to Hell."

One of the worst smnells on the planet, to me -- but not as bad as my neighbour apparently burning a 20-year-old rotted sturgeon corpse in her oven! (I could onlysurmise this was the meal, given the stench)

My body rejects it immediately.

I can't even put it into my mouth -- just knowing it'll hit & how my tate buds will revolt is enough to make me work, hard to force my vomit urges down over & over. . .

That was mine, too, but in m y formative years, learning obedience, I refused tyo eat some thing (sweet potatoes) & was sent ot my room hunmgry to bed at that moment. I came down fr breakfast & there was my meal from the night bhefore, at my place at the kitchen nook's table, still chilled from the fridge.

My mom worked hard to make that meal & I'm going to get no other food until I eat it.

I would simply tell the host, "I'm sorry; I'm sure it's good, but I just can't eat it; I don't getr anaphylaxis, so it's not technically amn allergy -- more a severe food intolerance." (only if they insist on quizzing me)

That generally stops the offense.

I'm an adult; I eat what I like & I like what I eat.

My wife cooks & I eat it, but she knows my intolerances & cooks accordingly, so it's all good(VERY good, actially)! (plus I need to set the example for my son)

She was happy with me for that, as her exes never did so -- complain, complain, complain. . .

I asked why she kept cooking -- I'd've stopped after just one rudely presented display of attitude.

I do the cooking on ocdcasion, but I take into account everyone's preferences & try not to stretch the envelope to much. . . I've negotiated to be able to add mild to medium spiciness to certain dishes (I like my skillet lasagna to have a bit of a 'kick'!)
