Anyone that isn't a true carnivore is a deal breaker.
Also if you eat your meat well done, you better move along.
I'd have to think long and hard about a chick that didn't like any spicy food but that may not be an immediate deal breaker.

Vegan, for sure. Vegetarian would be ok, but only if I wasn't living with them. I guess a big deal breaker would be someone who hates Mexican/latin food. Because that's pretty much all I cook and eat most of the time.

Shit like this is why there are so many single people out there.

Dealbreakers (in no particular order)
1) Vegan or Vegetarian
2) Going to a nice Sushi place and ordering chicken teriyaki
3) Getting steak well done (I like getting the porterhouse)
4) Doesn't like Korean food
5) Doesn't like Asian food
6) Won't eat fried foods
7) Orders salads wherever we go
8) Complains about carbs
9) Doesn't like seafood
10) Doesn't like sushi -
No spicy food is a dealbreaker.
Here's some particularly obnoxious other ones I've heard:
- Not liking meat that comes on a bone.
- Not being able to eat ground meat.
- No bleu or similar cheeses.Beginning of the end of western civilization.
-
everything sushiburger said plus doesnt drink alcohol
-
- Hates Street Food and hates authentic Chinese food (American take-out style doesn't count)
- If she's very close-minded on trying new types of foods
- If she forces her lifestyle and eating habits on me - cannibals, vegan or vegetarian. I'm an omnivore - need some sort of salad in my Street Meats. -
@rinda: can't believe I forgot that one... that's definitely up there.

Here are my top 2---my others are inappropriate for ML purposes.
1. Anyone who wanted to cook indian food where I live...if they get takeout, I would leave the dwelling for a few hrs and insist they febreeze the shit out of the place, but it wouldn't be a dealbreaker.
2. Vegans/Vegetarians--I generally despise them...and find them to be murderers of innocent weavels, worms, field mice etc.....

vegetarian & non-drinker

I've seen carnivores try to cope with being with a vegan. I don't know any that work.
That aside, I can't imagine food being a deal breaker. My wife hate's mayo, vinegar, mustard,breaded/fried, "grill marks" (the char taste), tomato sauce (the cloyingly sweet kind from a bottle or from far too many 'red sauce' italian joints) and cheese.
That still leaves plenty of common ground for dining together (indian food, chinese food, steakhouses, brasilian food, barbecue, etc).

After reading some of the comments I must withdraw my original comment. I could not stand anyone who eats middle eastern food (I cant stand the smell) and if you dont drink I wouldn't bother but I couldn't see breaking it off if someone liked there burgers well done or didnt like pizza. If it doesn't effect you why would you care??

So, what are your food-related deal breakers when you meet someone that you may potentially be interested in?
I'm already dating someone who basically encompasses nearly every single one of my potential dealbreakers, and admittedly, I didn't think of most of these until after we already started dating... but here's one:
I couldn't date a vegan. Honestly, I don't think a vegan would date ME. But I guess that's besides the point! :)
