Comfort food you love but they hate....

[chris86]

Gherkins. I'm obsessed with gherkins. My partner hates them, but I could eat them with literally any meal. She thinks I have those unusual food cravings that happen during pregnancy, but I think it's unlikely, seeing as I'm male.

He couldn't stand Mussels which I love, but would cook them for me anyhow and is now beginning to like them anyhow! Other than that he likes most things and certainly does not have an aversion to anything else. I am the one with an aversion...to mushrooms! The look, the smell the taste it all turns my stomach. I would go as far as to say I am phobic to them. When he has them he always offers to eat in the other room, to which I always say , but I am uncomfortable and on edge until they are gone, just the thought of them makes me feel queasy! He is a better man than me though as I simply could NOT cook them for him!

Don't like mushrooms??

They are one of my favourite foods. I could eat a whole plateful of then. Nothing more glorious than a big pile of them cooked in the bacon fat for breakfast.

Please to read of another good guy who clearly loves his wife.

After a gravy dinner like nothing better than to plonk a slice of bread in the gravy on my plate, delicious drives my wife crazy

Liver and onions, nobody else likes them, so I do cook them for myself with lovely mashed potatoes and veg...beautiful and good for me.

Mmmm, with bacon and lots of red wine in the gravy, done in the slow cooker... I'm lazy and buy some chilled ready made mash on my way home so I can have dinner on the table 20 mins after I get in. With the gorgeous smell coming from the slow cooker I'd never have the patience to peel, cook and mash the spuds before tucking in! Lol.

My eldest daughter and I love chilli con carne, preferably done in the slow cooker to let the flavours infuse. My youngest however hates it. Consequently we don't have it often, youngest has gone away for a while so it was the first thing on the menu after she left, we're having roast lamb tomorrow, another thing youngest doesn't like, and fresh fish tonight, yet another of her dislikes....I'm just starting to realise what a pain in the arse my youngest daughter is lol...

Yes, I have a daughter like that. She is also the youngest!

my husband is not keen on fish - and I love it - so he gets meat and I get fish

and I love tongue - but as he can't even stand the smell I actually never make it

Liver bacon and onions ... Not had it for about 8 yrs. Fresh fish, smoked fish, fish pie !! Again not had them in years, too much hassle to cook them for 1.

[dinamic22]

Chicken Tikka curry with rice i love it Mr D hates it but eats it once in a while because i won't cook it for myself.

Not at all ballsy. Do the mash potatoes one day , cover and put in fridge, garden peas simmer 10mins, cover & put in fridge. Next day Poach the smoked Cod/Haddock in milk for 15 mins, mash & peas plate up and micro wave until hot then add the fish and bobs your uncle, ready meal in 25 mins and no additives.

Same thing with the liver , pan fry the onions 15 mins add the liver , cook for 10mins . Cover & put in fridge, for next day, have what you like with it. Simples!
