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?

    Last August my family went to Maui and on our last day we toured the Maui Pineapple farm.

    OMG… I didn’t know that was how pineapple was supposed to taste. It is NOTHING like what we get here in Wisconsin.
