Food disgust test

[Yossarian]

This was interesting, apparently results vary widely.

I had no problem with meat or fish but no way am I going to keep eating a salad after finding a snail in it.

Don’t expect anyone here to invite you for dinner

 

[moomoo]

I had to finish my breakfast before I took the test

Don’t expect anyone here to invite you for dinner

I’m actually not as bad as this portrays.
For me, a lot of it is texture with foods but I do get grossed out easily by dirty spaces. When I did slimming world I would avoid the bring and share nights as I just couldn’t eat food from random people’s kitchens.

I don't really understand if the thumbs are how disgusted you are or how much you agree /disagree with the statement.

That confused me too but I went with agree/disagree with the statement.

If only they could correlate with number of accidents

 

[skyscraper101]

I seemed to not mind most things. Slightly brown banana? Sure. Caterpillar crawled accross my apple? Yeah? A few bugs in the bathroom of a restaurant. Fairly standard in a lot of Asia.

The only things that would put me off are stuff like, mould on marmalade (no I would not scrape it off and eat it). Hair in my soup. No ta.

 

[Stig]

pretty much only disgusted by hygiene and humans.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

There were a couple that I'm not disgusted by but would rather not. Bendy cucumber isn't great and overripe avocado is disappointing. I'd still eat them, though, if I was hungry.

 

[Spymaster]

Your food disgust is low (29.13%).

 

[Spymaster]

I'm not "disgusted" by any of them. Just mildly averse to some of them.

 

[Saffy]

At one point I wasn't sure I understood how to pick a choice because I got confused with whether I was picking the correct thumbs. Looks about right though.

I got 26% but am generally a very fussy eater. I wouldn't eat an avacado in any state of ripeness though.

Avocados spend pretty much their entire existence being too hard or too soft.

If you manage to catch one in its 2 minute window of edibility, it's ok.

 

[cesare]

Your food disgust is average (52.5%)

I thought mine would be more elevated than that, but shrug. Quite fun to do.

The Corridor of uncertainty!

 

[StoneRoad]

This is "average" at 56.38%

It didn't distinguish between shellfish and pelagic [?] fish - I like fish but can't stand the smell of a fish-market and will not eat shellfish.

Interesting result - I'm quite strong on Hygiene but rather more tolerant of "over-ripeness" of fruit etc.
The tolerance of cutting / scraping off of mold is [maybe] a hangover from post-WW2 rationing that my parents dealt with - as well as some poverty in my years as a student - and a dislike of food waste.

I don't really understand if the thumbs are how disgusted you are or how much you agree /disagree with the statement.

Yes. I went with the former, but I’m not sure.

 

[cesare]

Yes. I went with the former, but I’m not sure.

I did the opposite
