I’d say yes:
I think a lot of the variance is down to interpretation of the phrase “things you don’t eat”. My hypothesis is that people with the lower scores are interpreting as “things you absolutely refuse to eat”, and people with higher scores are interpreting it as “things I don’t tend to eat”.
is there any better test for “is this person an american?”
Ranch dressing is like cowboy boots, a big hat, chaps and bolo ties right?
There are a lot of items on that list that i don’t regularly eat but the only one that I would turn down is canned tuna. Not a cauliflower fan either but it can be manipulated to be decent.
My list of items that I won’t eat is pretty small, green bell peppers are probably at the top of it.
There are about 12 "fuck no"s on that list. And about another 12 that I won’t outright refuse, but would rather they not be present in anything I eat.

So close…
If I didn’t hate bitty or stringy fruit it’d be 0.
Fuck that gritty shit. Reminds me of eating literal grit when I was about 3 and experimenting.
Imagine me in my local Glasgow shop “Can I have olives on that”
I have no idea if it’s true, but I read somewhere that all food aversions are learned.
I imagine asking for a zuccini is tantamount to asking for yer heed ta tak a batin, or something.
Now if you’d called it by its real name, courgette, it’s a different story
Was in greggs a few years ago And the guy in front was asking for a pie & a crispy roll, the server with a smile said we’ve not got any rolls left but I’ve got a panini… When the guy blurted out “Hen, ye canny put a pie on a panini” the whole shop was in stitches.
… and what’s this eggplant thingy … oh an aubergine.
Gotta say I think aubergine skin, when unblemished etc, is gorgeous - just one of the best looking vegetables.
Aubergines are the business. Mrs jal does a tremendous aubergine and minced pork in sauce as a side dish that’s been good enough as a meal in its own right for lunch on occasions.
1 - canned tuna
I’ve said it before, but beetroot has no business looking the way it does:
I remember as a kid thinking “This is clearly gonna be delicious, finally a good vegetable” and nah.
Zero wtf. Licorice would be my only one.
Someone with celiac disease?
Legit cannot tell if you guys are trolling with that food list business.
Zero absolute no’s. I can’t stand dried coconut flakes, but don’t despise fresh or milk. I don’t like eggplant, but I’m not refusing it if served. I try not to eat pork or beef regularly.
