** ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureStardustCrusaders Stardust Crusaders]]'': Joseph enjoys drinking coffee, but he finds Japanese coffee tastes terrible.
** ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureDiamondIsUnbreakable Diamond is Unbreakable]]'': Okuyasu doesn't like spicy food, he cites Vermont Curry's mild flavour as being as hot as he can stand. This means he initially has trouble with pasta due to its spiciness.

** In ''Literature/MakingMoney'', Moist hates offal, having been served too much of it as a kid (his family were probably too poor to afford better meat). Of course, [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes this comes up]] as they're the one note of OneNoteCook Aimsbury and the TrademarkFavoriteFood of Moist's fiancee Adora Belle.

** It's been mentioned occasionally that Bob hates asparagus. He was once served a dish involving asparagus and ''carpenter ants,'' and expressed incredulity that it tasted good because it had ''asparagus'' in it.

** The show starts on [[TheHerosBirthday John Egbert's birthday]]. As a result of all the cake he has been eating for the occasion, he is sick to death of baked goods -- especially those by Betty Crocker. This nearly causes a HeroicBSOD when he realizes that [[TrademarkFavoriteFood his beloved Fruit Gushers]] are made by the "Heinous Batterwitch," but he decides that angsting over it is stupid. It's implied that his hatred of Betty Crocker products goes back ''much'' farther than that, since [[spoiler:his adoptive great-grandmother was Betty Crocker herself]] and baking seems to be something his father does ''constantly'' regardless of the occasion, or lack thereof.

* Tess' List in ''VideoGame/TheLastOfUs'' notes that she would never eat sardines, no matter how much she starves. And since this is a post-apocalyptic world where food is scarce, that's saying something.

* Chapter 20, [[https://www.wattpad.com/949263642-sister-floriana-the-veggies The Veggies]], from ''Fanfic/SisterFloriana'' reveals that Sister Diana used to have a keen dislike for tomatoes.

* There is a ''TabletopGame/TheDarkEye'' fanfic in which the protagonist's love interest doesn't like ham. Rhymes nicely with spam, and foreshadows an important plot point [[spoiler: namely, that the character in question is a necromancer who is deathly afraid of the dead. Ham reminds him of dead bodies.]]
* Klatchian Migratory Bog Truffles are a gourmet foodstuff on the Literature/{{Discworld}}. They are so prized by gourmets that they will pay vast sums for a meal where the chef has ensured there is no trace of bog truffles in it whatsoever. Johanna Smith-Rhodes, recently married Assassin, is happy for this state of affairs to continue with regard to her own diet. Until she gets pregnant and develops an inconvenient craving. For the foul-tasting Klatchian Migratory Bog Truffle. She discovers her taste buds have been out-voted by her foetus in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11536013/3/Hyperemesis-gravidarum Hyperemesis Gravidarum.]]''

* In ''Series/TheWorstWitch'' fancfiction ''[[https://misshecatehardbroom.tumblr.com/tagged/thread%3Akitty Kitty,]]'' Pippa Pentangle and Hecate Hardbroom don't like cupcakes, and Miss Hardbroom doesn't like doughnuts either.
** In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/8325352/1/PMS-Potions PMS Potions,]]'' Miss Hardbroom doesn't like pizza.

* In the ''Fanfic/TriptychContinuum'', Pinkie Pie is established as hating lemons, or at least lemon flavored pastry. She also really dislikes a strong flavor of vanilla.
* PlayedForLaughs in the ''WebVideo/GrittyReboots'' movie trailer for ''Harvest Moon: Back To Nature''. Karen hates eggs so much that when given one by Pete she screams "I hate eggs!" and throws it on the ground. She does the same thing when given milk.
* In ''Fanfic/OfQuirksAndMagic'', Izuku abhors the taste of Dr. Strange's [[https://www.yowangdu.com/tibetan-food/butter-tea.html Tibetan butter tea,]] to the point that Strange recommends Inko pour it down her son's throat if she ever needs to wake him from a trance.

* In ''WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged'', Goku will [[ExtremeOmnivore eat just about anything]]: giant fish, baby dragons, [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking pineapples on pizza]]... but he won't eat grapes or anything grape-flavored. That boy can't handle his grapes.
* ''Fanfic/InfinityTrainBlossomingTrail'': Chloe Cerise has a dislike for curry because it's a big reminder of how she and Goh used to eat it in the past. When her by-the-books curry for Home Economics class is considered unsatisfactory by the teacher that, and Mr. Mime cooking curries under Ash and Goh's request, contributes to her RageBreakingPoint. In Arc 2, when Chloe is at a Curry Car, it's revealed that she doesn't hate curry; it's more that she hates how she can never spend time with Goh after he moved on to Mew and essentially forgot about her.
* In ''Fanfic/LeaveForMendeleiev'', Adrien isn't a fan of cheese. Notably used to highlight his [[ItsAllAboutMe self-absorbed attitude]]; since Adrien himself dislikes it, he doesn't understand why or how ''anybody else'' could possibly enjoy it, and stubbornly tells Plagg (who [[TrademarkFavoriteFood loves it, especially Camembert]]) that it's gross. Frequently while glossing over any other points his kwami is trying to make. This underscores his general refusal to consider anybody else's point of view or [[NoListeningSkills listen to anyone]] who isn't telling him what he wants to hear.
* ''Fanfic/RubyPair'': Gaz has hated pork ever since the events of "[[Recap/InvaderZimS2E8GazTasterOfPork Gaz, Taster of Pork]]". So much so that in "Beefus Megabombus", when the pirate bees attack the Membrane house using meat products and hit her in the mouth with a sausage, that one little taste of pork instantly enrages her enough that she goes on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge against the offending aliens.
-->'''Gaz''': ''(with FireballEyeballs)'' You. Made me. Taste ''pork.'' Prepare to enter a nightmare world!

[[caption-width-right:197:Garfield's raisin' a complaint. [[note]]Fair enough, since raisins are toxic to cats.[[/note]]]]

* From Creator/SecondCity comes "I Hate Liver":
--> I hate liver\\

turns my stomach topsy turvy

* In ''Manga/SpyXFamily'', Anya admits she thinks carrots are gross when telling her adoptive father Loid more about herself. [[note]]Carrot's are a StockYuck for children in Japan.[[/note]]

* ''Manga/The100GirlfriendsWhoReallyReallyReallyReallyReallyLoveYou'': Kurumi doesn’t like walnuts because her food obsession used to trigger so much from hearing her own name, which is Japanese for "walnut".

* Anya from ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' explained alternative universes. Bear in mind that her example is bound to be self-centered: "Suppose you don't like shrimp. Well, blahh, you say, I wish there was a world without shrimp." This is in addition to a dimension without bunnies, of course.

** Aside from Neelix and Kes, ''no one'' on the ship likes leola root, which is apparently a rather nasty-tasing but nutritional dish in the Gamme Quadrant. Unfortunately for everyone else, Neelix insists on putting as much of it in his cooking as he can get away with, and blows off all complaints from the crew.

!!Other Examples:

* ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam0083StardustMemory'': Kou Uraki and carrots. And it gets exaggerated in ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars''. In a meta-example, the same goes for [[Creator/RyoHorikawa his Japanese voice actor]].
* In most ''Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam'' fan works, Paptimus Scirocco loathes watermelon bars. [[spoiler: It reminds him of how he was defeated.]]

* Similar to ''Franchise/SailorMoon'', most of the cast of ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' has a food they dislike, with the exception of Lee and Guy, who refuse to dislike any kind of food. Naruto in particular hates vegetables, and a brief flashback shows Kakashi appearing in his window to offer him some vegetables with his ramen.

* ''Franchise/SailorMoon'': Each of the Sailor Senshi have a least favorite food listed in their profile. Usagi's is, [[MeaningfulName ironically]], carrots, her KidFromTheFuture Chibiusa shares this dislike, Ami doesn’t like Hamachi fish, Rei hates canned asparagus, Makoto is an Averted case as she loves all foods, Minako dislikes Shiitake mushrooms, Setsuna despises eggplants, Haruka’s not fond of natto soybeans, Michiru isn’t fond of Kikukage mushrooms and Hotaru doesn’t like milk.

* Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse:

[[folder:Visual Novels]]

* ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'': Saber is well known for her [[BigEater large and nondiscriminatory appetite]]. However, she does ''not'' like octopus. '''''At all.''''' Not so much for the taste as the appearance; upon finding out that a food she ''did'' enjoy (takoyaki) was stuffed with fried octopus, she expressed horror that she'd been eating 'demonic fish of the underworld'. [[spoiler: This is revealed elsewhere to be due to her confrontations with the Fourth War's Caster in ''Literature/FateZero'', who literally did try to kill her with summoned demonic fish of the underworld; the entire experience left her with a dislike for tentacled, squishy things]]. Saber also doesn't like potatoes because there was a time all she had to eat were potatoes, and they were poorly cooked; Namely that all the Knights of the Round Table took turns cooking and Gawian could only cook Potatos, and he wasn't very good at it. Cooking in general was lack luster in her time, causing her to prefer well cooked food in present day.
** Later entries in the series and suplementerly material reveal Saber Alter is also a big eater (as she's still Saber), but while regular Saber prefers well prepared foods, Alter is happy with cheap and easy snacks and fast food.

* ''LightNovel/LoveChunibyoAndOtherDelusions'':

[[folder:Real Life]]
* President UsefulNotes/GeorgeHWBush famously hated broccoli and once humorously declared at a news conference: "I do not like broccoli. And I haven't liked it since I was a little kid and my mother made me eat it. And I'm President of the United States and I'm not going to eat any more broccoli." Broccoli farmers sent 20,000 pounds of broccoli to the White House in protest and while Barbara Bush very graciously accepted the produce (as she personally loved it), President Bush simply doubled down and declared: "I still don't like broccoli".
%%* [[http://www.rogermwilcox.name/vegetable This guy]] really really hates vegetables.
* Pythagoras (of Pythagorean Theorem fame) was known for his hatred of beans. To wit, Pythagoreanism was a religion based off his work and philosophy, and beans were verboten in said religion. Pythagoreans believed in reincarnation, and by their books beans were the main target for human souls to reincarnate into. Thus eating beans was, for them, something too close to [[ImAHumanitarian cannibalism]]. Pythagoras had such an aversion to beans that as he was escaping from an angry mob, he came across a field of beans. Unwilling to trample across the field, he stood there and the mob killed him.
* Yasuhiro Nightow, creator of ''Manga/{{Trigun}}'' and ''Manga/BloodBlockadeBattlefront'', abhors avocados. In an interview he has stated "I think avocados aren't fit for human consumption. If all the avocados were to disappear from the face of the earth right this very instant, it would not bother me in the least".
* UsefulNotes/MaoZedong was noted to dislike soy sauce, owing to being squicked by the moldy beans during a high-school field trip. So, the soy sauce used in red-braised pork -- his TrademarkFavoriteFood -- is substituted with caramel.
* Wrestling/TheUndertaker (or at the very least the man portraying him, Mark Calaway) absolutely hates cucumber, to the point that he (according to Wrestling/PaulBearer in a shoot) threw up bad because he found some cucumber in his drink.
* Humorist Dave Barry can't stand lobster and shellfish and wrote about it in his column (Lobsters are 'giant insects' (specifically cockroaches with claws) and clams and and oysters are 'snot in a shell', for example).
* Creator/GordonRamsay hates Spam so much he learned to cook just so he wouldn't have to eat it again. The man hated a food so much ''it launched his career''. He also will not touch airplane food. And he is on [[BrokenBase team anti-pineapple-on-pizza]].
* [[Film/TheThreeStooges Moe Howard]] seriously did not like shellfish. When a sequence for ''Film/APainInThePullman'' called for all three Stooges to eat the shell of a Dungeness crab, Moe balked and couldn't bring himself to even lick the crab's claw. In the end, Preston Black arranged for the prop department to make a replica claw out of sugar for Moe to nibble on, but Moe was even squeamish about that (he even half-seriously suspected Black had merely had the prop department dip the actual claw in sugar to fool Moe). He finally did gnaw on the replica claw, but as he himself recounted, it was "gingerly".
* Actress Jewel Staite is known to hate strawberries, which is the direct opposite of her ''{{Series/Firefly}}'' character Kaylee and which had to make the well known EroticEating strawberry scene a challenge.
* Music/{{Madonna}} hates cheese, to the point that she never even had pizza before until she appeared on ''Series/TheLateShowWithDavidLetterman'' and he offered her a (cheese-free) slice of it for the first time.

** Tom Paris doesn't like leola root soup or not knowing what's in his food. B'Elanna Torres is also a bit picky about her soups.
