I mean, what is life without nachos…

I have to say I have used cottage cheese in lasagna…not as the ONLY cheese but one of the cheeses. If you get a good quality cottage cheese like Good Culture you can also blend it smooth so you don’t have the chunks.

I’ve never eaten at Costco or Chick-fil-A or Popeye’s. I am adventurous and will try almost anything. That being said, I tried okra once and will never eat it again. It seemed like a slimy mess.
When I was a kid, my Mom (who was an immigrant from Croatia) would make me sandwiches using black or dark rye bread. No one would ever trade sandwiches with me. I always wanted to eat Wonder Bread sandwiches. Now, you couldn’t pay me to eat a Wonder Bread sandwich.

Not eating Wonder Bread denied you the winter snowstorm benefit of the original Gore-Tex boots. 
My mom saved bags all year for my brother and me.

Absolutely not! It’s delicious and MUCH better than ricotta. Now back to our regular programming…
Edit–you don’t have to blend it --it melts.

hahaha ok we can be pluralistic I suppose 
Okra, I think the only food I won’t eat (I put file powder in gumbo and jambalaya). My mom only bought Pepperidge farm bread, I was so jealous of the kids with wonder bread (wouldn’t eat it now).
Yes! I too envied the kids with Wonder Bread sandwiches. My mom bought Roman Meal bread because she said it was healthier.

Onion Blossums. Because onions. 
Re: bull testicles-- they are delicious. My mom made them for us once, breaded and fried (I had seen them at Stop & Shop and asked what they were.)
Her grandmother was a butcher in the old country and her father was a sardine fisherman on the Adriatic Sea. We grew up eating all manner of meats and seafood.
And I love vegetables of all kinds. I don’t think I’ve ever had celeriac.

I don’t eat sushi after a patholgist friend of mine described the worms he found in the guts of sushi eaters. Yuck.
I never eat at Jack in the Box. Years and years ago children died from e coli from undercooked hamburgers eaten there. The thought of a poor child dying from eating a hamburger turned me off forever.
I can’t stand the smell of curry.

I’m not a big fan of okra, but cooked the Indian way it’s delicious. (Dry fried quickly and not allowed to get slimy.)

Speaking of slimy, I hate rhubarb. It leaves a disgusting fuzzy feel on the teeth.
Okra breaded in corn meal and fried the southern way is delicious.

I also have never had a McRib. 
Even more strangely: I grew up in southern California, home of In-N-Out burger, and I’ve never tried it. They’ll probably make me give up my SoCal citizenship now that I’ve admitted it.
I’m not much of a burger person (they’re in the category of: they’re fine, I’ll eat them when served, but rarely at any other time), so I never went out of my way. But I don’t get the cult following. Where I live now (Denver metro area), there’s an In-N-Out about 10 minutes from my house. Lines around the block most days. I don’t get it.

I know it’s futile to attempt to herd the CC cats, but the OP wants to know what we’ve never tried, not what we’ve tried and don’t like-that thread would go on forever.

Also, it has to be a relatively well known food item not an obscure something like prairie

As I’ve aged, I dislike a lot of casseroles. I’d rather have my meat, starch and vegetable separately.

I like the slime! 
And the body it adds to soups.

I miss my mom’s fried okra. So good!
