What do you eat because it is good for you but you don’t actually like it?

[Notagain25]

I’m not a big fruit lover but just looked in the fridge and thought, I must buy some raspberries and strawberries but I don’t actually like them so I eat a few then they go off within a day or two and I end up throwing them out. Teen dc doesn’t like them either!

I do like bananas and avocados and lots of veg just not fruit particularly.

What do you buy and make yourself eat because it’s good for you but you don’t actually like it?!

Nothing. Luckily I genuinely like vegetables including green leafy and cruciferous ones, nuts, seeds, oily fish, wholemeal/seedy breads, etc.
I'm not a big fruit eater but, as a pp says, that's not the end of the world as long as you eat veg, as it's high in sugar. I do eat bananas, and have an apple sometimes, or make mangoes into a lassi, and I juice or Nutribullet both veg and fruit.

Broccoli, sweet potatoes, swede - any of those big root vegetables.

I'd like to make myself eat oily fish but apparently not enough to actually do it

Spinach, sweetcorn, broccoli, peas (ordinary ones, petit pois are ok), red kidney beans.

I am not a big fan of salmon either but my husband doesn't eat meat so will sometimes eat it with him if I can't be bothered to cook anything else.

Literally nothing. I’m fussy, and I don’t care - life’s too short.

Cottage fucking cheese

Nothing- the only things I don't actually like eating are Puy lentils, tripe and pak choi, so I don't eat them.

Sweet potatoes as a healthier alternative to regular potatoes. They are hard to stomach.

Celeriac

Chia seeds and flax seeds. I just stick them in porridge or a smoothie/yoghurt but there not my fave

Brown rice. I’d much rather eat basmati.

Beans and lentils. I actually like the taste and flavour, and they're good cheap protein but they don't half make me parp.

I feel the same! My diet is great and everything I eat I enjoy- I do love cooking though and always pack loads of veggies into everything so maybe that helps

Every so often I have a go at cutting out/down on coffee and trying to drink green tea instead. It never lasts.

Kale - I put it in my morning smoothie because it supposed to be good for eye health but I really don't like it.
And funnily i really like dislike eating oranges so I squeeze them and I love the juice.

How about brown basmati?

I did train myself to enjoy olives as I was fed up of being left out of appetisers on Greek holidays but other than that nothing. Life is too short and there is plenty of food that I do enjoy.

Nothing, what a weird idea.

I keep trying with the Greek yogurt - waste a lot of money on it + seeds + berries but it’s just not satisfying especially at this time of the year.

Olives are awful and I’ve tried and tried, so now I don’t. Same with bananas.

I ear broccoli but don’t like it and I won’t eat sweet potatoes.

There is extremely little that I dont like, some offal I dont like so I dont eat that. I do know that its good for you

I dont eat fruit, unless you count tomatoes, olives, aubergine, that type of fruit.

But I do eat things that need using up and I have combinations that other people would baulk at, so that it doesnt go to waste but equally I like everything I use.

I would like to get back to eating yoghurt regularly but it gives me acid, peppers are starting to do the same, so if I ate them I would be eating them because they're good for me but dont really want to eat them because of the side effects.

I eat bananas, but don't like them.

They're cheap, nutritious, portable and come in their own packaging!

I often have one at work as a convenient snack. I also have one on porridge before cross fit, to properly fuel me.

I hate drinking water bit force myself to drink 2 litres a day.

Thats a lie, I eat dates and prunes too.
