    Most raw veggies. Avocado!!!! Spinach...love it raw, cooked, in an omelette, etc.

    I never knew I liked basil, cloves, or curry that much until the past couple of years.

    Steel cut oats.

    Coconut milk in curries, too. Mmmm.

    I am still not crazy over tomatoes (don't care for them raw) but I like them much more than I used to and will even eat them raw if they're diced or finely chopped (like in pico de gallo).

    My husband has introduced me to vita herring in wine sauce and I really liked it, to my surprise. I've always enjoyed fish but would not have tried that probably.

    Yogurt and I have come a long way. I gagged at ALL yogurt until I was about 30 and then broke myself in with the (now yucky to me) Yoplait Whips. Now I'll eat plain Greek like it's going out of style...I love it with fruit, nuts, etc...or noosa as a "treat yogurt" for dessert. Noosa is even better than cheesecake to me, seriously!

    Not exactly "healthy" but when it comes to alcoholic beverages...until 2 years ago I was a Jagermeister shots or "girl drink" type (daiquiris, margaritas, flavored martinis) and now I prefer to drink many types of wine, sake, or Redd's apple ale which is beer, or at least the closest to beer I've ever gotten ;-)

    Some foods I've always LIKED are now among my absolute favorites, though and frequent players in my daily diet...eggs & salmon especially.

    Before, I never liked nuts. Peanuts, almonds, anything of the sort. Now, I eat them all the time, and will not eat peanut butter unless it's crunchy. Also, used to hate strawberries. I love them now. Same with bananas, and apples. I know water isn't a food, but I used to hate it, but drink it all the time now. :) I also used to hate turkey and pork, and loved beef. Now, it's practically the opposite.

    Same here. I actually prefer water most of the time. I figured out that I don't like room temperature water or ice water. Gotta be refrigerator temp.

    Sweet peppers. I used to hate them, and could detect the trace of them in any food. I decided I wanted to tolerate them, so I just started eating more of them. Started with red ones, roasted, and grew to quite like those. Now, I like (not just tolerate) red, yellow, green, and even raw. I'm working on celery now.

    I've never been a big fan of the green veggies, but now I love broccoli, green beans, and sweet peas!

    I had that with greek yogurt! I used to be repulsed by the thought of the stuff & I have them almost every day now :smile:

    Also, nuts! I used to pick them out of everything and hate them. Now, I always snack on almonds and walnuts & find them to be delish! (I take the 100 cal packs of almonds in my lunch every day! Oh, how times have changed lol)

    OH! And hummus - recently became addicted to the stuff! I always thought it would taste like sawdust for some odd reason, but it's AMAZING :love:

    There isnt much I dont eat.. that list is much shorter lol. I only started eating lobster and crab in the last few years, now I love them. Sea Scallops are growing on me. But I would have to say that over all else, Avocado is slowly growing on me. I still can't do them plain but I can handle it in Guacamole.

    Snails. Here in Spain they are a delicatessen, but I never tried them because it grossed me out.

    One day I tried them, and they are actually very good, I'm still not fond of the texture though.
