    Yogurt - I hated yogurt as a kid. Now, I go through an obscene amount of yogurt in a week.

    Oats - I use them to make oatmeal. I loved the processed stuff, but I like to add my own flavors even better.

    Soy milk - This is a new one. I hate white milk and wanted something to add to my breakfast (I'm not a breakfast person and it tends to be extremely calorie-light...not good for someone who already has problems reaching their calories). I bought a quart of vanilla over the weekend, tried it, and loved it! It only lasted me two days. I had to stop by the store and buy more yesterday!

    Spinach - Raw spinach, to be specific. I don't like it cooked so much, but I've found out that I can substitute spinach for lettuce in a salad and not miss the lettuce!

    Blueberries - I've had them in muffins and pancakes, but never on their own. I just started adding a small handful to oatmeal or yogurt for breakfast. I'm still not a huge fan, but they're growing on me.

    I tried brussel sprouts after reading on here how nice they are baked. Delicious! Even the kids gave them a go, followed by a thumbs up :happy: Almond milk is a new fave, and sugar free dark chocolate :heart: I have tried a lot of new things recently, and I can't say there was anything that I haven't enjoyed...
