What did you hate as a child, but love as an adult

[00100001]

For me it's mushrooms and also showers.

Mushrooms were the disgusting things that weren't nice in any way! Now I love them, eat the raw, fried, grilled, in soup etc 😋

I absolutely loathed showers, even to the point where I'd sit in the showe tray and try and have a really shallow bath! Love them now. Absolutely hate baths now and only have them when no alternative is available.

Not sure when I moved from a hate to a love...but there we go!

Anything with even a super mild dose or flavour of chilli. Can't get it hot enough now.

Dark chocolate.

Museums. As a child I could think of nothing less dull.

Forgot that one!!!!!

Sparkling water and early bedtimes!!

Roast dinners - hated them as a child, Mum used to make me sit with a cold dinner and eat it! Love them now I cook them myself.
Dresses - hated them!! Always had to wear trousers. But now I wear them and enjoy them (even have 1 with flowers on!)

I agree with the PP who said 'house browsing' - looking in the windows of estate agents, reading the Houses section of the local paper each week, I never understood my parents' interest given that we already had a good house. Now I love a good nosey on Rightmove or Zoopla, and always browse the windows when I'm on holiday!

Coffee and olives.
Olives is a common one, truly an acquired taste, absolutely love them now.

Radio 4

Gardening and being dragged round garden centres. My parents were keen gardeners and encouraged us to help out and I absolutely hated it. Hard work and boring in equal measure.

I hit my 30s and I suddenly got the gardening bug. Now I absolutely love it and it's my main hobby, I'm usually at the garden centre once a week even if it's just for a browse.

So thanks mum and dad, I didn't appreciate it at the time but it came to me eventually! I fear I'm now doing the same to my children and dragging them round garden centres 🤣🤣

Agree with others on bedtime! And Gardening

Food.

As a child eating just felt like a chore something you had to do.

Now I spend 98% of my time thinking about or eating food.

This changed around 11years old. I remember thinking: wow this is nice.

geography!! I wish I’d studied it more back then!
