Loose Women star Andrea McLean, 49, joined James Martin, 47, on his Saturday Morning show today to promote her new book.
During her time on the ITV show, she tried out a baby onion served as part of a dish by a chef on the show.
Andrea tried the onion, but swiftly turned her nose up as she admitted she didn’t like the taste.
After James realised she wasn’t enjoying it, she replied: ““That is horrible, why would you eat a…,” before James offered his hand for her to spit it out.
She replied: “I’m not going to spit it in your hand,” as she struggled to keep the food in her mouth.

James then joked: “I didn’t say eat it,” before she queried: “What was I suppose to do with it?”
“I’ve swallowed it, I didn’t know what else to do,” she added before drinking some wine to remove the taste.
After James joked further about her reaction, she replied: “This programme is horrible!”
Earlier on in the show, James also encouraged Andrea to try out another new dish.
James handed the dish over to the Loose Women star, but she hesitated as she joked she didn’t trust him.
