But I don't like <insert name of food here> !!!

OK, Accountant Boi, now you've done it! After following this thread, I started to feel like a stubborn mule for "hating" lime beans. Soooo.....the last time I was at the grocery store, I bought a bag of frozen mixed veggies - green beans, broccoli, carrots (all of which I love) and cauliflower and...lima beans (both of which I don't).

You know what? It was pretty good! The cauliflower didn't taste AT ALL the way I remembered it - I actually kinda liked it. And the baby lima beans were tolerable. I can do this!

So thanks to you, AB, for inspiring me to add two more veggies to my arsenal! I will definitely be having both again.

Moral of the story: If you haven't had something in a number of years, try it again, You never know.

Awesome! Congrats for being willing to try these again. Glad you found that they don't taste so bad anymore!

... well even sweet potatoes which I have 6 large ones now sitting on my counter (but I'm learning from friends on here how wonderful these are, just need to try them now). The things that come to mind with Sweet Potatoes is marshmallows from being young and that's how they were prepared. Sure we ate the marshmallows offa the top back then but I'd rather not put marshmallows on mine now. :laugh:

I just poke holes in my sweet potatoes with a fork, toss it in the microwave (same as a regular potato), cut into lengths, and eat, skin and all. But I tend to like my food naked like that. They are really sweet without the marshmallows.
