Prunes

Let me preface this by saying that when I was a little girl I was forced to drink prune juice nightly. As a result of the trauma of being forced to consume something I haven't touched a prune in any way, shape or form in about 35 years.

Well today I decided to buy a bag of mixed dry fruit. I love how they listed the prunes as dry plums (I guess it sounds better that way). I figured I'd just pick the darned things out and nosh on the other dried fruit. Tonight I decided to bite the bullet (or prune) and see what I've been afraid of all these years. Holy cats! It was actually pretty darned tasty. I was so delighted that I went ahead and ate a second one just to make sure it wasn't a fluke.


Anyone else have similar experiences with trying a food recently that you either used to shun and found that you actually enjoy it?

So I'm the only one, eh?


Interesting.
