    "Ready to eat" popcorn; I don't mind the smell of freshly heated popcorn, but that pre-bagged stuff (eg Manhattan) is horrible.

    Garlic

    I love food and I love cooking but I hate the smell of garlic.....or more the smell of it cooking. I will not have it in my house. Granted there is always garlic in prepared food but it's not as strong as fresh garlic.

    Is that what it is? Gets you at the back of the throat... makes you gag? Blurgh!

    I can't stay in the same room when garlic is being used to cook - i completely understand why the vampires can't stand it!

    Also an ex's mother used to cook some sort of fish or other, boil it in milk if i remember correctly (i'm not really a seafood eater so i don't know what fish it was) I'd have to leave the house when this was going on, i literally had to struggle to not vomit, the smell was that revolting!

    Smoked haddock, poached in milk ?

    Bleach.

    Yes.
    Especially when you know what it does in houses - destroys harmless bacteria on surfaces so that harmful bacteria can get a carte blanche landing space to breed on.

    Had one of those experiences that you really only have in college many years ago that involved drinking a bottle of powers at a house party. I would say looking back I should have been brought to hospital. Anyway, since then even the smell of whiskey makes me sick to my stomach.

    It was smoked something alright - Jesus i'm nearly heaving here just at the memory of it! Disgusting :mad:
