You never refuse food made especially for you, unless it is something to which you are allergic, or something you have a moral reason not to eat. I have refused to be served meat, because I don't eat meat. Otherwise, if it's just something yucky, you just explain that you aren't that hungry, take a small portion, and nibble it a bit, after which you can use the "scatter technique". I have actually emptied a plate under a bush at a cookout, careful to cover the food so it isn't found.
Good luck.

"Oh, Grandma, that's so sweet of you to make food for me! But I have had an upset stomach today, so I hope you won't mind if I save the food for later. "
(Smile sweetly and store the food in the refrigerator and when she leaves, give the food to the dog or cat or throw it away.)

You could refuse in a polite manner that you don't like certain thing in your food, but try to sample others.

If it's a family member, simply explain you don't like the way they do it.

I say I'm allergic to {whatever it is}.
I'm not really allergic to anything, but if I don't like something (especially peppers, onions or mushrooms), I don't want to eat it just to be polite.

Show politeness by accepting and eating a tiny portion.

You could say "Thank you, but I don't eat foods cooked in oil (or whatever) as they disagree with me".
Cheers :-)
