Full disclosure: I actually find some of the superhopped beers tasty when the mood strikes and I'm on the hunt for that green, pine on the back of the tongue zing. I like gin too, though, so maybe it's just my palate.

Re: Name a food you can't stand that others seem to love.
I find it absolutely amazing and sickening the wide gamut of things people choose to (and even love) putting into their mouths. The vilest, most bitter, slimiest, most foul things. Especially the native Chinese. I've seen many of those "ten grossest' food sites, and been thoroughly disgusted.
Somewhere in this wide land, I wouldn't be surprised if people voluntarily ingest feces and love it.
I'm quite particular about what I put into my mouth. Granted, this seems to have worked quite well, as I've never had Montezuma's revenge, "stomach flus", 'ptomaine' poisoning, or other intestinal ailments that seem to be so common among others who are less discerning in their culinary intake.
It seems to be common sense to watch carefully what you put into that hole.

Must be pretty delicious for people to pay hundreds for it.

Ground beef. I can't eat it.
I eat steak, sausage (links & patties), hot dogs. But I can't eat ground beef.
No hamburgers, tacos, meat sauce, meatballs.
It's a texture thing.

Peanut Butter - the smell makes me gag, and I can't speak to the taste because I've never eaten any.
Sweet potatoes/Yams - again, the smell and the visual appeal is not there for me.
Cake - donuts, cupcakes, muffins, things like that. I think it's a texture thing.

Re: Name a food you can't stand that others seem to love.
My wife loves sweet potatoes/yams; I much prefer regular potatoes.
I'm also no a fan of mangoes or honeydew melons.
I love me a good strong double IPA, though.

I dislike but can eat broccoli, cauliflower, and brussels sprouts if they are prepared in specific ways.
I can't eat avocado or beets no matter how they are prepared.
