My step mom loved something called ptcha. I think I have it spelled right. it's jellied calves foot. she described it as kind of like garlic jello.
Tripe, UCP tripe shops were common as a kid growing up in 60s Lancashire. Snails & octopus are pretty disgusting too
Fermented shark.
Olives. To me they always taste like I'm eating shoe polish!
Tofu
Slippery, slimy, and no flavor at all. What is the point?
I like tofu. Add it to a soy sauce style soup base with green onions, maybe eggs, tempura, and it tastes really good! Add those fat udon noodles too!
Tofu is also an estrogenic food.
Plain tofu from the market... bland, it is for sure.

Tripe is up there on the list, but I'd have to go with Sea Cucumber. I had that a a Chinese wedding many years ago. I was much more adventurous back then.
A take away lamb sag, tasted wrong and had loads of chilli. Ended up in the bin.

Tofu is flavorless, but it's a flavor sponge, ever ready to absorb all sorts of yummy flavors. I, unlike you, quite like the texture. It's like a scallop.
