Mine is definitely Cottage Cheese........I hated eating it.......awful texture, bad flavor, etc......but it's so good for you so I kept eating it........ Now I don't really mind it at all.....I just eat it and don't almost gag etc......How about you guys (and girls)?

    Avocados. I never liked them until this past year. I decided to try them again and they weren't too awful so I ate them a little bit more and now suddenly I'm obsessed with them! I'll eat them with a spoon even!

    Edited because I can't type. :P

    Oikos Greek Yogurt... At first it was just way too sweet and had a bit "too runny" of a textrure, but now I really like the vanilla brand and enjoy putting granola or fruit in it. Who knew?!!? ;)

    It's not that I couldn't "stomach" eating fruit/veggies for a snack before, but my whole mindset was waaay different.

    "Fruit/veggies for a snack?! COME ON!!! That's a side, an afterthought, not a SNACK! Now, where are those chips/crackers/cookies..."

    That's how I use to think not too long ago. I've surprised myself with my mindset change. I actually plan out my fruit/veggies snacks, look forward to trying new things (sugar snap pea pods for a snack?...YES PLEASE!!), and I even seek them out in odd places (pit stop at a gas station, etc.). Sure, some days I'm still on autopilot and grab the bag of chips, but I catch myself and grab an apple instead. :smile:

    I used to HATE tomatoes... unless they were in ketchup or cooked until they were so smooshy I couldn't tell they were there. Now, I like to eat the little cherry ones as a snack, and I actually crave it in a lot of my foods. Who knew?!

    Mine was tuna. I would never touch it and couldn't get past the idea of it, but now I like it.

    I still haven't been able to get myself to try greek yogurt. I don't like regular yogurt. It's sour tasting.

    Milk...but there has got to be something mixed in it, like slimfast or nesquick. It's a flavor and texture issue. I still do not like most cheeses but I've put some in my diet on occasion, the ones I can handle like american, swiss, mozzerela, and parm.

    I'm not going to waste my calories on foods I don't like no matter how good they are for me.

    Worms are a wonderful source of protien and some bugs are very good for you but that doesn't mean I'm going to add them to my diet either.

    Non-fat plain greek yogurt. i used to only buy the sweetened kind, but comparing the protein/calorie content:
    (12g 120 calories sweetened vs 18g 100 calories plain) i started going for the plain kind and just added fruit to sweeten it instead. now i love it. it's like a sweet/sour mix.

    Greek yogurt! It turned out I was eating the wrong brand/flavor. Now that I eat Chobani brand, I LOVE the stuff!

    I still can't eat fish... or eggs.
