Is it normal that i despise coconut?

I don't mind the taste of coconut but the texture it's usually associated with is horrible in my opinion.

I like coconut milk and ice-cream, but I can't stand the shreds in food. I feel like they ruin good dishes. I remember when I used to go to church there was this overweight lady, who was a fantastic cook, she would often make desserts for the church. I used to LOVE her cheesecake and once I got myself a slice of what I thought was regular cheesecake, but when I took a bite out it I was extremely disappointed to find out that it had coconut in it!!!!!

I do not like coconut.
I hate the smell.
I hate the taste.
I hate the texture.
I hate how it is a popular scent for girly perfumes and lotions. To me, it smells cheap and funky.
I do not like coconut.

Despise? Wow. That's a very polar extreme of emotion for a foodstuff. It sounds like you're going to war with them and won't settle until you have executed every last one of them and cured the world of their blight.

Personally, I like coconut quite a lot. For me, the things I don't like are pineapple, kaffir lime leaves, milk, lemongrass, Thai basil, coriander, sprouts, carrots, butterscotch, tea, and the Frank's Red Hot sauce that Dominos use (I have rarely tasted anything more foul and it's not even hot, it's just vinegary and unpleasant).

I hate dates. They look like cockroaches and taste revolting.

OP here. Did not think this post would blow up so much.

Always disliked coconut!! Nasty!

Not the taste the consistency.

How could you!!?? :O It is probably the healthiest food you could ever eat as it is packed with vitamin C and acquires antioxidants. It's middle is highly nutritious and is often referred to as : "the fruit of life" And I HATE Tomatoes! Haven't been able to stand them ever since I was little >.<

Onions, tomatoes . Yuck

I love coconut! I like the smell and it's so good and tasty toasted.

I hate Turkish Delight.

Pffft. I fucking love coconut.

I don't know what it is people like about coconut. If I were in a deserted island with nothing else to eat, I'd be glad to have at least that. But given other alternatives, I just don't get it.

I try not to be too picky with food as it has caused me a lot of grief over the years. But I don't care for cabbage very much. Saurkraut and kimchi don't appeal to me much. And I'm getting tired of cumin as my roomy puts it in everything. And while I like the taste of corn, it is something I have grown a deep hatred for. I am allergic to it and it is in nearly everything. I am not a picky eater, just sensitive. I hate it. I miss out on a lot of shared meals because of it. It sometimes makes me very sad.

Yep.. Bounty is my least favourite chocolate bar. Or for you Americans out there I think the equivalent is called a Mounds bar.
I don't mind chunks of real coconut though although its nowhere near my favourite ... I just realised that I don't know if a coconut is a fruit, nut or what..?

Onions, I have to read ingredients of everything I buy cause heaven help me if I find out theres one onion flake I gag and feel sick... Haha

my least favorite food, well any rice with soy sauce on it is. and okras have a bad taste to me. and i guess thats it for me i can't think of anything else right now.

I can't stand coconut either! In ANY form!

Coconuts are high in naturally saturated fatty acids.

I love coconut and coconut water with pulp in it. Hmm what do I dislike? Umm...maple syrup is revolting and should burn in hell with ketchup and relish and sauerkraut. Arugala is gross. Most seafood makes me want to yak.

Of course it's normal to dislike things. I hate cheese. All though, there is some I enjoy. But not most of it. It just makes me gag for some reason.

not so bad with coconut...its honey I have a problem with...honey flavored is fine actual honey itself I find just too sickly
