I used to hate green olives. Now I LOVE them.

Now, there are no foods that I hate. I really can't think of a single food that I hate. There are foods I prefer over others, but nothing that I just really hate or can't eat.

I asked my mama just to confirm I wasn't deluding myself.
She said I was the only one of her daughters that was willing to
eat anything she cooked & willing to try anything!

The story remains the same!

lots of things...my Mom liked to foist her experiments on us and many met without approval...but at school, I hated Mondays and the insipid version of red beans and rice served by a lunch lady who had the personality of a troll.

Melons, couldn't even stand the smell of a cantaloupe, honeydew, or watermelon. Now I love them.

Walking back to my office in the CBD on a warm summer day, I passed a fruit vendor truck, he had cantaloupes cut in half to show how juicy they were. I was in my early 30's and still thought I hated them, but it looked so inviting. I bought one, brought it back to the office, ate the whole thing and have loved them ever since. In that one day I went from hating them to loving them. . . go figure.

When I was a kid, I only liked enough mayonnaise (I mean mynez) to fill the little holes in the Sunbeam bread. Put on mayo and scrape off any excess. Now I slather it on.

I hated milk, beets, and turnips, still do.
