Me neither. I can somewhat tolerate mushrooms if they are mixed into spaghetti sauce but that's about it.

But, but like...no seafood at all for you guys? Scallops? Salmon? Crab legs, lobster? How about flounder?

I can't stand the smell, taste or texture of any kind of seafood or fish.

Fair enough. I grew up eating brim that my dad and I caught while fishing on Lake Murray. We've always had fish, then as I got older and would go out to eat, I would try different types of seafood and pretty much like everything that I've tried. My wife has a very strict diet so we eat salmon at least once a week.

My wife won't eat mear or poultry, but she does eat fish and seafood. She doesn't eat tunafish or merlin though, says the structure is too much like that of meat.

I'll happily eat most of anything.

Seafood is fair game for me. Generally I like mushrooms, but only fresh. I can't eat them out of a can.

Love the paintings. I did the same thing in Xian and Shanghai.

So many painting photos. Even made a display out of them.

The staff at the museum made me stop taking photos. But I took them on the sly.

In terms of seafood I can eat some form of salmon. Smoked or pan fried.

And white fish if it's battered and fried.

Squid if its crispy and not chewy. Prawns only in dimsum.

Shellfish is out of the question. I've tried crab and a lobster when I was younger, didn't take.

Why did they make you stop taking photos?

He probably got caught taking pictures of the camera locations instead.

I find we are getting distracted from the real issues at hand here guys.  Like how come GG can only eat white fish when it's battered and fried?

I think we need to know what the opinion is on sushi.

I'd like to say that they were concerned about photo flash damaging the paintings. But in the section I was in they were actually selling them. So they didn't want people taking pictures to print.

Sushi is gross. But it may be the seaweed and vinegar that puts me off.

Fish without something crunchy or potato like is too soft and weird.
