When I was a kid, I hated anything green. Today, I love broccoli.

asparagus... i used to be deathly afraid of it - i thought they were lizards! now i absolutely love it - a little hollandaise or some butter and lemon juice - delicious!!!

Some kinds of seafood--- shrimp, I love calamari, and I've tried I forgot what it's called. It was a fish, tasted like chicken. Maybe salmon? I duno, but the smell was horrendous. Things that smell turn me off.

ETA: I know calamari is considered seafood and is squid! Lol thanx Chuck! I meant whatever I tried that tasted like chicken.

calamari = squid.

avacados and mushrooms. now i love avacados and cooked mushrooms (still cant stand raw mushrooms)

my mom keeps saying that i will grow into liking tomatos....but even if someone puts a tomato on my sandwich and i have to take it off and it leaves that slime, it still makes me gag....so i dont think i will ever like them

asparagus, onions, brochli, atrichokes

Now i love all of them!

You and Me both!!!!!!!!!! I still to this day detest tomatoes. There slimey and yucky! i cannot stand them a t all. I go anywhere i demand no tomaoties on or in anyting. I use the excuse i am highly allergic to them

I hated salad. That's so weird, but my mom only ever had thousand island dressing, which is gross, so I guess I just thought all salad was nasty. When I got to college and experienced ranch dressing for the first time, I realized the error of my ways. I was a very picky eater as a kid, though, and there were tons of things I didn't like.

On the other side -- when I was little I liked mushrooms and now I hatehatehate them with a passion.

I'm pretty consistant. Didn't like most veggies then, don't like them now.

Mayonaise, might be the only thing I didn't much like as a kid that I like now.

Still dont eat the food that Mom said was good and all of the starving kids in what ever country would love to have it!

Russell, Green Beans the only thing and not many of those!

Over the Years, the Old food is still in my mind= Fried Chicken, Mashed Taters, Sun. Of Course! Roast, Tater, and Carrots with Gravey! NummY!

But, I do eat other fine foods, Shrimp, Crab Legs, Lobster, Chicken Livers (NOT BEEF Livers GAG), Show Me The Beef, Steaks and Taters.

Am I a picky Eater, Hell Yes. Chinese Food Love, Out Of The Can only!

Am not eating mush yet!

I was a really picky eater as a kid. When I was little, I hated cheese (though I liked the cheese on pizza as well as other dairy products) and tofu. Now I love 'em!

[KSigkid]
