I just overheard a coworker saying “Oh, I would never try that in my life!”, in a discussion of food. (This was about consuming a steak cooked less than medium well). It made me wonder what life is like for those who refuse to try new food, especially those who refuse to try mundane things like fried shrimp.

Why limit yourself? It seems like such a closed-minded way to view food. Help me understand?

        “bEcAuSe I dOn’T” is hardly a response. Every other commenter has been able to identify taste, texture, trauma, something. You’re the only one stubbornly insisted “just because” is a valid answer without contributing to the discussion.

        No one is contesting your right to be picky, just asking for insight. If you don’t want to share, feel free to stfu anytime.
