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?

    Ok… Do you like cheese alone? What about a cheese platter with crackers maybe?

      No lol.

      For me, cheese is only like a condinment. It goes on other stuff, not a food by itself (imo, at least)

      Cheese goes on pizza, Burgers, but not a sandwich. Like it feels a bit weird to have some food with cheese, if you know what I mean. I grew up acustomed to Chinese food (and Americanized Chinese food too), so I guess I just never have real exposure to what “western” food is really like (even tho I live in the US, I guess I’m just a picky eater… 🤷‍♂️)
