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.

Tomatoes for sure.

Vegetables.

What I hated I still hate, but I find I like some foods more now than when I was a child.

Liver isn't as bad as i thought it was when i was a kid.

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.

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

beer

Beans and rice. Hmmm... I cook them better then mom did. She used that salted fat back bacon that stinked up the house ... ugh!

Most vegatables I hated as a kid. Like them all now

Brussel sprouts.

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.

Onions and mushrooms.

Blue cheese.
I love the stuff now.

Can't think of one food, if any of my friends mothers made it, I would eat it. Although, I have to agree with a couple of other people, Menudo is definitely out, it just doesn't sound good at all.

Sprouts.. or know here as Brussels sprouts. My mums family is British, a very traditional veg and they were served at just about every meal. My nan would boil them to death. Gross. My mum started roasting them and I fell in love. Now as an adult, I eat them at every opportunity!

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.

Green olives. Now I can't get enough of them, especially when stuffed with sun-dried tomatoes... oh man...

Sprouts???

Mushrooms and lima beans. Lima beans are a pain to prepare, so I get them frozen. I am trying to grow my own mushrooms under the big tree in my yard. Too much snow right now.
Still do not like beets and okra

Olives.

Spinach....but only because my mother wanted me to eat this ugly thing. Now, I enjoy Spinach pie a lot.

Courgettes! My mother overcooked them and I just hated the texture, it was so disgusting! Bot I know now the raw courgettes are delicious!!!

I used to hate asparagus and brussel sprouts. Now, they are my go to veggies when I'm cooking. I love to grill or saute them.

Avocado
