- Mushrooms: No. Mushrooms are fungi. Fungi grows on poop. In my mind, eating a mushroom is like eating poop.
- Fresh Tomatoes: I don't get them. Are they a fruit or are the a vegetable? I don't put them in my fruit salad, but they are still considered fruit. Ahhhh, so confusing!
- Beets: How do you eat them? Pickled? Cooked? Raw?! The color tells me to halt and reconsider what I am about to consume. That dark red juice stains your hands and clothing in the same way that wine does, so why am I always tempted to try it when wearing white??
- Juice that does not need to be refrigerated: I am talking about the cranberry and apple juice in the drink aisles at the grocery store. How is it possible that there is actually such a small amount of real fruit in there that it does not need to be kept cold. This makes absolutely no sense.
- The yolk in hard boiled eggs: I can't even handle it as a deviled egg. It is just this yellow-y powder-y clump of weirdness. I just can't bring myself to look at it.
- Bananas in fruit salad: To whoever does this: why? Weird, mushy, browning banana all up in my fruit salad? No thanks.
- Nuts in my dessert: If I wanted to eat some peanuts, I would just eat them. Plain and simple. But when I want to eat dessert, I want my ice cream, cake, cupcake, or whatever, to not include nuts. Stop it. Just stop.
- Bugs: I understand that there is a lot of protein in those little critters, however, unless you are planning on paying me, I am not going to touch them. I cannot stand them when they are alive, and I am not going to eat them when they are dead.
- Brains and Cow Tongue: Lengua? No thanks. Brains? Nope. I ain't no Hannibal Lector.
- Anchovies: Sdkafjnrnejnvosefnvs!!!!!!! In other words, YUCK! I'll stick to freshly caught fish that doesn't come in a can.

Confusing Food and Drinks
Food is a part of everyday life. Aside from water, food fuels our brains and offers us colorful options for ways of getting our energy. I'm a colorful eater. I love fruits and veggies of all colors, however, there are a few that just don't make sense to me.
