Is there something wrong with me?

I hate milk and yogurt...I can't stand even the sight of any white liquid or, in the case of yogurt, mushy substance. I'm not lactose intolerant...I've been to the doctor and she said I was ok. The problem is that I don't only dislike it but it also makes me sick. I have no problem with cheese or fruity yogurt...but anything white and mushy or liquidy disgusts me, including whippedcream...

I am a racist among edibles...I can't stand the white food.

But jokes aside...what's wrong with me? Any ideas anyone?

I am the same way. I do not like milk, unless it's full of chocolate. I gag on vanilla pudding, and bananas. But I like vanilla flavor, and banana bread is one of my favorites. And I don't gag on chocolate pudding. I have never understood this, because the puddings feel the same in my throat, I do not know why one would make me gag, but not the other. I cannot stand the thought of cottage cheese, it looks like curdled milk to me.

I cannot eat finely mashed potatoes, there's gotta be lumps in it. If you find out what's wrong with us, let me know.

ah...A fellow sufferer...I am not alone...I like green bananas but can't stand the ripe ones...I have no problem with vanilla as long as it's yellowish instead of pure white.

Is there something wrong with you? Short answer.. no

Long answer... yes

(get it, yes is 1 letter longer than no :jiggy: )

Coconut disgusts me enough to make me throw up. I tried to warn my ex-girlfriend, but her and her mother decided it would be a funny joke. Needless to say I wasn't cleaning it up.

Its just the way you are. I can't think of another way to put it. You may not want to do this, but I suggest taking a bowl of yogurt and staring at it. Try to fight the urges you feel. Do this as often as you can, until you train yourself to not get the feelings you do when looking at these substances. Just a thought.

AHH! I'm EXACTLY the same way! Except for me it includes toothpaste *shudders* it makes me sick. Anything with that feeling or texture in my mouth, and I'm gagging.

we are now the power of three.

ES, is it just me, or do we seem to have ever so many things in common?

Yes, we do sister. There are a few of us that have found each other here on the threads. Certain ones of you I have felt a very strong connection to. Can't explain it really, do you feel the same? Like we would probably be friends if we lived in the same town? Same with you Lady.

White doesn't bother me at all . But even the slightest taste of vanilla is absolutely overpowering to me. Nor do I like chocolate cake. but pure Chocolate is fine.
It is not a matter of likes I just can't cope with those two things.
The other thing that is impossible is Tripe.Disgusting.

oh I am so lucky; there aren't many foodstuffs that really put me off - apart from snails and certain shellfish - but that is just purely the thought of it.

That is strange ... No , not you Lady C , but I can't figure out what the colour would have to do with it . Do they taste different ? Can you notice the difference with your eyes closed ? Me thinks that there must be a difference in taste ?

Heathen! Back! Back, I say!

Now, where'd I put those strawberries..........

I don't have any problem with milk or yogurt, but I can't stomach white condiments. They literally make me gag. These include: mayonnaise, sour cream, cream gravy, tartar sauce, ranch dressing...

Maybe you associate something disgusting or bad with white liquid/semiliquid stuff?

I feel kind of lucky... most food doesn't bother me if I don't think about it. Now, if I started thinking, "My, what a lovely glass of cow secretions!"...

You have what is known as whiteliquidaphobia...LOL...Sounds as if you just don't like it a WHOLE bunch...My sister is like that...hates all liquid dairy,yogurt,vanilla ice cream, white cheese...If you don't feel there's anything wrong with it I'd say there isn't. Have a t-shirt made so no one serves you this and has to clean up for their mistake.:jiggy:

I don't have any problem with foods per se, but I have a consistency thing. Anything that's like mucousy, that you can push and it will move around in some sort of snotty mass, that makes me gag. Smells don't worry me, gooby things do.

I do believe it has a certain special taste...white vanilla is too sweet for me.

Haha!...There's a certain holiday food in Romania called 'piftie'...It's like a transparent pudding (not the dessert kind) with pieces of pork in it...It looks disgusting but it's absolutely delicious.

Interesting light thread. I can't stand milk, and haven't drunk any since I was a child -- although I recall going through a phase when I could tolerate milk if it was very cold and I drank it quickly, as in through a straw during school lunches. It totally grosses me out when people drink milk straight from a cereal bowl; I do use milk on my cereal, but only enough to get it wet. This, too, must be a longtime tendency, because I can recall a friend of my parents complaining that I was "spoiled" because I would leave all the excess milk in my cereal bowl when I was little. I'm not fond of yogurt, plain or otherwise.

Like an earlier poster, I can only cope with bananas if they are green -- and I generally don't eat them, either. One reason why I avoid fruit salads, and jello mold salads, because they so often have banana in them. I *really* hate artificial banana flavoring, but part of it is the consistency of real ones -- gross, mushy stuff.

As for "white food phobia", maybe there is an association with pus and decay. I like white cheese, and ranch dressing. I can tolerate cottage cheese with tomatoes, if there's not too much of it, but I hate it with fruit. Vanilla ice cream is o.k., but I prefer a generous topping of chocolate sauce.

Love, Karen
