types of food you hated before, but now like

[lxskllr]

I'm probably one of the few people who doesn't like sweetened tea at all. It's horrible.

I don't like it either. I can drink Honest Tea which has a little bit of sugar, but my preference is completely unsweetened tea. Sweet tea's undrinkable :^S

offal

Dear lord I thought I was the only one. Can't abide any kind of tea with sweeteners.

I like sweetened tea but a lot of the more popular ones are too damn sweet now. Lightly sweetened ones, like a Snapple tea I tried and Honest tea, is great. I don't like the more bitter unsweetened teas, though, can only take spiced or more neutral (like chrysanthemum) tea.

Vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus... I hated them as a kid, but now feel incomplete if I don't have veggies of some kind with dinner.

 

[AndroidVageta]

One major one I remember is Tomato Soup by Campbells®.

My mom made it with the soup/paste, 1 cup milk, 2 slices Kraft Cheese.

Always sounded so nasty and hated it as a child. However, now being an adult I LOVE the stuff...

Pineapple - used to hate it with a passion. Now i LOVE fresh pineapple. Cant stand when its cooked though, like on pizza - BLECH!

 

[Locut0s]

Fish in general. Used to hate it now I really like it for the most part. Still can't stand shell fish though, yeah I know it isn't fish.

Beer and wine. Hated my first taste now can't get enough.

 

[KeithTalent]

offal

I actually loved that stuff as a kid. My Dad would always challenge me with various organ meats and weird foods and I would eat them all so I didn't look like a pussy. Ended up liking most stuff as a kid.

I've always hated olives, but I started forcing myself to eat them a few years ago and I have now grown to be ok with them, though I do not go out of my way to eat them.

Yeah I know, it's weird. That's why I've been forcing myself to like them. Slowly but surely...

I want to get used to offal. Got any recomendations on how to go about this?

Why?! It's like saying "I want to get used to carrion". Sure you'll save some money, and you'll be one of the last to starve in a survival situation, but it's not worth the effort.

Follow the French! They do awesome things with offal.

I'm not talking about making my own dishes here. I would like to get used to some of the sigature dishes that use offal. Many a famous dish uses organ meat.

 

[Daishiki]

It wasn't until college that I started to enjoy spicy food, fish (including sashimi), unsweetened iced tea.

 

[Beev]

Hot sauces. I used to always get everything as mild as possible, but now I love hot sauces. Except Tabasco. I don't like the flavor.

 

[Anubis]

TBH nothing, my food hatred is strong and unwavering

 

[Jadow]

there's a lot of things I like now that I either didn't know about or didn't like when I was a kid.

What about the opposite, things you liked as a kid but don't like now?

For me,
canned spaghetti, loved that stuff, now I think it's totally atrocious.
