Parsnips. Love them now!

viques · 23/09/2020 17:40

Lettuce.

Still do.

Can eat and enjoy raw or cooked watercress,cabbage,spinach, cook me pumpkin leaves , Spring greens etc etc and I am happy. But put a bit of little gem, iceberg or romaine on my plate and I push it to one side.

ToastyCrumpet · 23/09/2020 17:40

Stringy gristly meat and tinned pilchards or salmon. Still hate them.

Two I now love:
Coffee
Marzipan

Used to love kidney as a small child but now not keen.

Too many to list, but basically anything green.

MaskingForIt · 23/09/2020 17:42

“Beige” foods. Hummus, peanut butter, love them both as an adult though!

Spanglybangles · 23/09/2020 17:42

Sausages.

bearlyactive · 23/09/2020 17:45

Nuts - they made my throat burn and my lips swell. Turns out I was allergic all along

delilahbucket · 23/09/2020 17:45

Beetroot (only ever served pickled to within an inch of its life), green beans, peas, olives. I still don't like pickled beetroot but love it in all other forms, will only eat mushy peas or petis pois and love olives and green beans.

tobee · 23/09/2020 17:45

All vegetables. Even peas and baked beans. Love them all now.

Scweltish · 23/09/2020 17:47

My mums stews and casseroles

ZarasHouse · 23/09/2020 18:00

Cheese cake. I think I decided I didn't like it just because it sounded weird. All those wasted years... that I have made up for entirely I'm sure!

HildaOgdensLipstick · 23/09/2020 18:18

Eggs. Especially the whites. Eat them now but still not keen on flabby whites.

TheFormerPorpentinaScamander · 23/09/2020 18:22

Peanut butter, i love it now but not in sandwiches.

Spam. Still hate it now.
Bananas. Ditto.
Tomatoes.

TwizzledTurkey · 23/09/2020 18:23

Mince and onions
Stuffed marrow (stuffed with mince)
Liver and onions
Tuna pasta bake
spring vegetable soup (think it was Knorr in a packet)
Omelette

YoTheGinPussyOnThigh · 23/09/2020 18:24

Tomato, beetroot, celery, all still make me sick.

Didn’t like but will now wolf down, cauliflower, coleslaw, curry,

MisiSam · 23/09/2020 18:26

Absolutely everything. I survived on sweets and marmite on toast. I eat everything now though!

OverTheRainbow88 · 23/09/2020 18:28

Fish- Still do Now as was made to eat it

JollyGiraffe12 · 23/09/2020 18:28

Sweetcorn. Like it now though!

LynnThese4reSEXPEOPLE · 23/09/2020 18:28

Hot mushy weetabix. My dad insisted on me eating it despite the fact I was actively retching. It's only acceptable when eaten one at a time, dropped into the milk so it remains as crisp as possible.

viques · 23/09/2020 18:29

I forgot, I used to hate pineapple. All those wasted non pineapple years, I'll never get them back.

Sad
toomanyspiderplants · 23/09/2020 18:31
