I hated Broccoli as a Child really bad. Now since I am grown, I can't get enough of Broccoli and Cheese and Broccoli Rice Casserole. It is so Amazing how we change so much as we get older.

I hated broccoli, cauliflower and all fish as a kid. Now I happily eat broccoli, cauliflower and some fish, so long as it can be made into fish and chips.

As a kid I didn't like most of the green veggies.  As I grew older I now eat a few but still draw the line at Brussel  Sprouts and Lima Beans.

Broccoli and peas but I like broccoli and sweet peas now, they are so good. Growing up I could not stand the taste of it.

I remember not liking peas.  Actually, I never really tried them as a kid so naturally I thought I wouldn't like them.

One day, when I was in elementary school, the principal was in the lunch room - something he rarely did.  The entire group of students took it as punishment so we were all very quiet.  On my lunch tray was a pile of green peas.  A part of me figured that if I didn't eat my peas, I might get into trouble.  :'(

So I ate my peas and realized right away that I really liked them.  I'm glad we were being punished as a group.  I may never have brought myself to try green peas.  :)

As a child I hated broccoli and spinach. However as an adult I like them. Glad I like them now as they do benefit our health.

I didn't exactly "hate" eggs but they had to be cooked a precise way that only my mom could pull off.  I usually therefore ate leftovers for breakfast NOW I love eggs (they still have to be cooked the same precise way LOL but my son can cook them right in fact both sons and I can cook them for myself)  I no longer eat leftovers for breakfast and love breakfast foods.  Yum Yum

I didn't like spinach as a child but like it now.  I only liked chicken *bleep* and never ate legs or wings.  Not that crazy about thighs but I eat everything else.  I didn't like grits but the last month or two I eat it for breakfast a few times a week.

Lol really b-r-e-a-s-t was bleeped?

I know. The censorship is so funny.  :-X Why bleep b-r-e-a-s-t and not thigh? Aren't they both too sensual to even mention in mixed company? :-[

When I was a kid, I think I must have lived on fried chicken, mashed potatoes and chocolate ice-cream and/or pudding. It drove my poor mother crazy.

When I was 18, I fell in love and then I ate everything in sight. I think it's the love factor.  :heart:

I didn't like spinach.  I thought it looked nasty.  My grandmother fixed some while she was staying in my house and I loved it.  I also didn't like pimento cheese.  My paternal grandmother would make it from scratch and I wouldn't eat.  I love it now.

As a child I liked very few vegetables excepting corn and maybe some green beans once in a while.  However, as an adult, I have expanded my taste to many more vegetables.  For example, I love oven roasted vegetables with fresh herb!  In my opinion, you can make almost any vegetable taste pretty good this way.

I hated so much as a kid but the thing that really stands out is any type of seafood and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE any type of fish or shellfish! I am so glad my tastebuds changed!
