I love Brussels sprouts. Roasted at a high temp in the oven, with olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic.

I recently, at the ripe old age of 55, discovered that I also like Brussel Sprouts! Never thought I would, but they are so good!

Anchovies. When I order a caesar salad and the waiter asks if I want anchovies, I say hell yeah! (More politely, of course.)

Sushi. I first tried sushi when two of my sorority sisters dragged me to a sushi bar. Hmm, raw fish ... oh, wait, this is nummy!

Medium-rare steak. This is how I have always eaten steak. My MIL insists on eating steak medium-well. "I SEE PINK!!1!1!!" I had to convert my husband to the deliciousness that is medium-rare.

I agree with you about sushi, especially if it is salmon (surprise! surprise!)

I also like anchovies on my pizza, but none of my friends, family members or colleagues do. I will admit that eating anchovies is like eating spoonfuls of salt

Because they have engineered them to be less bitter and they get roasted with seasonings instead of boiled to mush. I was shocked when my daughter was raving about them and did some research. They are NOT the brussel sprouts we were force fed as kids. https://www.bhg.com/news/brussels-sprouts-less-bitter/

My mother never cooked anything she didn't like and as an adult, I have discovered what a picky eater she was. So, I never had brussel sprouts as a kid. Had the roasted ones at a restaurant not long ago. :-)
