I am generally not a finicky eater. But I have preferences for certain items. These are the items I will not touch. Some items can be explained, others defy explanation.
1. Bananas. I have no idea why I hate bananas. I haven't had one in over 20 years. I sometimes tell people that my sister beat me silly with a banana when I was young. While that's not true, you wouldn't put such behavior past her.
2. Mayonnaise. I like the cousins of mayo (aioli, ranch dressing, hollandaise), but I hate mayo.

3. Natto. Consider the soybean continuum, where edamame is at one end and soy sauce is at the other. Natto is rotten soybeans and would fall right in the middle. In the words of my former colleague Andy, "It tastes like ass."

Be afraid of natto, be very afraid.
4. Bittermelon. Nuff said.
