Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) never found fault with food. If he had inclination to eating it, he would eat; and if he disliked it, he would leave it. <b>[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]</b>.
وعن أبى هريرة رضى الله عنه قال:
ما عاب رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم طعاماً قط، إن اشتهاه أكله، وإن كرهه تركه

<b>Guidance from the Hadiths:</b><br>
1) A person should recognize the value of his Lord’s favors. So, he should not find fault with any food by way of expressing dislike of it.<br>
2) The Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) was noble in manners. He never found fault with any lawful food.
