I thought I hated capsicum most of my life but lately (past my mid 30s) I’ve come to actually really like it raw. As in salads or sandwiches. I’m enjoying that. As a child my parents would add it frequently to meals but it would always be cooked and I was never a fan.

Or mushrooms for example. I love them almost any way except preserved. If they came from inside a tin or jar with long shelf life the taste is just horrendous.

Similar for artichokes, they must be fresh.

I love sesame seeds, but I absolutely hate sesame seed oil and I can’t understand why. The taste is so different.

Curious about yours. Any similar examples?

      Ahhh tomatoes yes forgot about these. I love them in all forms except sun dried. Interesting that your issue is with cherry tomatoes only, can you eat regular tomatoes raw?

        Yeah, I don’t like them because they explode in your mouth and are too sweet for salads and most people ise them in salads. Funnily enough I love apples or pairs in my salads because of the sweetness they add but cherry tomatoes are a no no.
