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?
Not exactly what you asked but while I do like fruits I don’t like them in salads. I also don’t like sweet and salty mixed together though there are some exceptions like pineapple in pizza.
I can understand and I’m usually like you, not liking the sweet and salty mix. But Hawaiian pizza is not for me
