I CANNOT eat any food that has been in a can- corn, pineapples, tuna, baked beans, ravioli, soup, whatever! If it's a canned, I feel like puking at the thought of eating it. What can this be?

Maybe you can taste the metal from the can. There is really nothing at all abnormal about liking only fresh foods!

When I became pregnant I all of a sudden couldn't eat canned foods either, they just had an "off" taste and I puked if I tried. It's probably the slight taste of metal the foods carry. I would say you just have a sensitive palate and there's nothing to worry about.

Canned food has a slightly detectable metal taste. There is nothing wrong with you, you have a sensitive palate. Steamed fresh veggies are better for you, you can make soup from dehydrated stock, and you might try the tuna in a pouch.

Like others have said, it could be the metallic taste, but it sounds psychological. I have a friend who entered a vienna sausage eating contest about 4 years ago and hasn't been able to eat anything out of a can since. It's actually not that strange to not want to eat anything out of a can because of the taste, and frozen vegetables are a healthier alternative if you don't want the expense of having to buy fresh.

There is nothing wrong with you for not eating canned foods.
Actually is a lot more healthy to eat fresh foods, also fresh foods tastes much better than frozen or canned ones.

As long as your getting things fresh you dont need canned foods. My Dr. doesnt allow me to eat canned foods. They dont have as much nutrition content.

Maybe not be anything wrong, canned food ultimately is not good for you.... so if you prefer FRESH vs over canned, go for it.

What could be wrong with you? Its actually healthier, so I wouldn't be worrying about it.
