These are a few of my favorite things.

I'm not picky when it comes to food items, but my limited selection on the "do not consume" list always perks the interest of family and friends. Maybe finally admitting my culinary dislikes will help me, and others, to understand my...silly ways.

You will never find these in my kitchen.

- parsley

- cilantro

- ranch sauce

- alfredo sauce

- arugula

- celery

Let's also consider my "hate-to-love" food list. The guilty (and embarrassing) pleasures. The over-processed abundance of our grocery shelves and fast food drive-thru.

- KFC mac and cheese (neon cheesy goodness)

- microwaved Peeps

- KFC coleslaw

- Burger King's "onion" rings

- birthday cake icing (fabulous food coloring and lard)
