Neither of us is fussy.
BB doesn't eat fish but that's all.
I don't like fat but you can easily cut that off. I don't like grapefruit and anyway am not allowed it, it interacts with a lot of drugs..
And I'm not good with rich, creamy sauces but again, you can usually leave most of that.
That's it :)

I am not at all fussy, I am faddy.

I hate the texture of beetroot, raw carrot, pickled onions, anything that doesn't mush down just goes into smaller and smaller pieces as you chew

I dont like faffy food, like you get in posh restaurants.

I dont like a mixture of foods, which is why I am not keen on afternoon tea. All those different sandwich fillings and different sickly cakes. Give me a round of sandwiches and a slice of cake and I am happy

The only thing I would not eat is beetroot, because I hate it or mussels, because both my mum and dad were allergic to them, so I figure my chances aren't good

Apart from that I eat anything

I don't like anything too spicy - so most curries are out (I have problems digesting spicy food) but other than that I think I'm fairly easy to please :D

I'm not a fussy eater, if I'm invited somewhere I'll make a good fist of anything I'm offered. :mrgreen:

I've never been particularly keen on fish (or cherry tomatoes for some reason, you can't beat a proper 'un) , but I'd have it if it was the only choice on the menu.

I think as I've got older, I've developed more blander tastes, eat less than I used to, try to follow medico-dietary constraints (no grapefruit, as Di pointed out) and certainly become more vegetarian based than a meat-eater.

I do have to watch indigestion a bit these days, though ..... so like Gal, I'd try to avoid any meal that was predominantly spicy.

And like jenni and Saundra, I do prefer red meat properly cooked. I always ask for "well done" in a restaurant, and if the chef decides to burn it to a frazzle, that's fine by me! :D

I eat almost anything love my meats and fish and shellfish most vegies but hate advocado.

Like my food well cooked and basic not a lover of sauces and don't like the modern idea and a few tiny morsels on a plate with Ju dripped all over.

Give me a nice roast or meat and two veg with a good gravy and I am happy.

PS to add I don't like Indian food at all it seems coarse tasting to me but do like some curries and indonesian foods
