I used to dislike onions, banana peppers, and tea. I love all of those things now. You?
Meat (just kidding). I can't think of anything I disliked but then again we didn't have a huge variety as a kid. Later I got nauseated at Nato [thejapanguy.com] It is slimy and gross. It is said the Japanese have developed an enzyme to be able to digest it and many love. Definitely an acquired taste.
I can't think of anything I didn't like as a child that I like now. Hated liver, Brussels sprouts, sweetbreads, asparagus, coffee, tea, buttermilk, soda water. Still hate all them.
There are things that I loved as a child that I can't stand now though. Two of those would be Jello, and hamachi.
Chocolate. I used to say I was allergic to it, but my mom would always tell them no, he just doesn’t like it. Doctors office or whatever.
Beans and rice. Hmmm... I cook them better then mom did. She used that salted fat back bacon that stinked up the house ... ugh!
beer
That’s funny, I enjoyed beer until I turned 21, then I got away from it. So much of it I consider nasty.
Hummis; black eye peas; snow peas
In all honesty, I never even tried them because I did not like peas and that was enough for me.
I ate a snow pea to be polite in my 20's and loved it. Black eyes, I ate by accident and hummis was something I didn't even try until a few years ago because it just didn't' look right
I was a texturally picky eater, and had phases where I just couldn’t eat some foods (peanuts for a long time, carrots— raw and overcooked. I still can’t eat raw bananas or stand their smell.)
Carrots now are great, just not raw.
There are a lot of things I like now that I couldn't stomach as a kid...squash & onions, liver, black pepper. When I grew up, I figured out my dad was right. My mother couldn't cook & would screw up the recipe for ice. Everything was cooked to either mush or cinders & coated in pepper.
I grew up in a sort-of Jewish family in Long Island and hated smoked salmon. Plus lima beans. Years later, when I worked in a high-end restaurant and tasted good quality smoked salmon, I got it.
I really don’t remember too much that I disliked. Or that has changed. Whatever I didn’t like then, I haven’t really gained a taste for.
Avocado <3
Onions, tomatoes, hummus, lettuce, eggs, and beets.
