How long have you missed out.

Thr for me.
Firstly - Cauliflower, couldn't get interested. Now I love the soup, as a side dish, or my own personal catnip: Cauliflower cheese.
Secondly - Sweetcorn. It randomly used to make me vomit. Now I love it.
Thirdly, and bizarrely - curry! My mum was a fairly traditional cook who was taught to cook by her mum, who was taught to cook by her mum etc. Consequently the nearest I used to get to curry was either a horrifyingly fruity variety at school or a Vesta chinese. Then one fateful night on an evening out with a (much more worldly-wise) friend we nosed in to an Indian restaurant after hours. My eyes were opened and I've never looked back.

Walnuts, taste like licking old books to me, why bother when you have Cashews, Almonds, Pistachios etc ?
I never have eaten Prawns, except those that lurk in late night Spring Rolls, tried some the other week when out with the missus, to shut her up and they were ok.
Same with most Seafood, apart from normal white fish, my missus will eat pretty much anything like that, I joke that I have to lock my tropical fish tank...

Thats a good one.
Do you drink tea? or are you just not into hot beverages?
I could say the same about Cocaine.. but what puts me off the most is that the majority of people that I see taking it / offering it to me are t

Have a cup of tea with breakfast at the weekends but that’s all. Never bother through the week.Do you drink tea? or are you just not into hot beverages?

ts.Walnutophobia? It might have been the human skull/brain misperception but it's
turned into walnutpophilia so that's fine.
For me, I worked in the battery hen bit of a farm, collecting eggs, mucking out
and running the slaughter line. I always liked eggs but haven't eaten hen, or any fowl, for decades.

Coffee.
I drank my first cup of coffee about two months ago, after managing to avoid the stuff for almost 60 years.
We've just moved into a new house and our neighbours invited us in for "a coffee".
I assumed I'd have a choice of beverage. However, out came the caffetiere(sp?) thing and, with no tea based option offered, as a true Brit, I thanked our hosts and drank every single drop. Much to the amusement of Mrs B.
It was just as awful as I'd imagined. Never again!
