Instead of cooked.

I prefer raw corn on the cob (but cooked off the cob). I also like all fruits raw except for peaches.

Carrots. I like cooked carrots just fine especially in soup, but I will go to town on raw carrots.

...~~potatoes.~~

-Tuna, and most fish. Most cooked fish just tastes... too fishy? But sashimi-style fish is so amazing, and doesn't have that same fishy taste.

-Some veggies like carrots, and cabbage.

Raw tuna is so freakin' good.

Carrots. Cooked carrots are fucking nasty.

Carrots, though I like them cooked too.

fresh meat

prawns

:^)

yes, I've been told it's gross

All fruits and most vegetables (those that can be eaten raw, at least).

Not prefer per say, but seafood tastes amazing either raw or cooked. Raw octopus in a vinaigrette dressing is the most amazing taste ever. And I love ceviche.

I only eat carrots raw. Cooked carrots are nasty. Same with celery. And spinach.

Fruit is one of those things that is amazing either way. I love raw fruit, but I also love fruit desserts. The only exception really is grapes. I don't like cooked grapes. And don't put cooked raisins in anything for me. And I really hate grape juice. But raw grapes are really good.

Coconut.

Tomato. Definitely tomato.

Also carrot, like other peeps here.

Pretty much all fruit. I mostly don't like cooked fruit, the texture change and taste change just don't work for me.

Same with carrots. Onions, too, though I don't mind cooked ones to flavor other foods, but I will pick them out.

Carrots

Most fish you see in sushi, but especially salmon and tuna. Raw octopus is amazing. Avocados... I've seen recipes where they're baked (with an egg in the cavity) but the idea of a warm avocado makes me gag. Fruits like pineapple, peaches, raspberries, apples unless they're in a pie...

I agree with you about sushi and would also mention squid, because some of the sushi shops I frequently buy from include a squid nigiri piece in their larger nigiri packs. I particularly like raw salmon.

The idea of cooked avocado sounds weird, except one recipe I ran across on Facebook for avocado chocolate brownies, but I haven't tried that yet. I prefer avocados mashed with a sprinkle of salt and a little lemon, and spread on toast, or corn thins.

Warm avocado is terrible and pointless.

Cooked broccoli is like eating farts. Never ever cook broccoli.

If your cooked broccoli tastes like farts, you're definitely doing it wrong. They're fantastic in stir-fries, lightly steamed with some salt and butter, roasted with garlic and parmesan... delicious. Whereas raw broccoli tastes like shrubbery.

Raw salmon, because sushi, also raw squid, for the same reason.

Most fruits are good raw, I generally agree about carrots, though I don't mind them as part of a group of baked vegetables.

You know one thing that surprised me while watching YouTube taste-testing videos? The predominance of people saying that Spam should be cooked instead of eaten straight out of the can. Thing is, Spam straight out of the can is already cooked, so it can be eaten "raw". I only eat Turkey Spam though, when I am in the mood for Spam (it is very strongly flavoured).

Salmon, lettuce, pickles, avocado, cookies

"Cookable" fruits and vegetables. Cooking them wrong just makes them mushy and bland.

Salmon and Tuna on Sushi. It doesn't really taste like anything, unlike when it's cooked.

Cats.

Cookie dough. If not cooking it, just leave out the eggs. They only matter for baking texture.

Reading this thread, I didn't realize I was such a freak for preferring cooked carrots. They have to be really sweet if they're on their own, but I also love them in stews and other dishes where they're strongly flavored. They're kind of the tofu of vegetables.
