For me, it's milk in my cereal! I still hate dairy milk but I love soymilk in granola or cheerios. Didn't like peppers and I like 'em now and also tomatoes, but now I really have to be in the mood to eat tomatoes. Same with oranges. I also hated bananas! :sad: I love them now!

    Beans. Never liked them when young, but very much like them now. Hearty, healthy and tasty.

    Baked beans
    Kidney Beans
    Spicy food (I liked the flavor, but couldn't stand the heat)

    Now I thoroughly enjoy them, and when it comes to spicy food, I haven't met anything too hot to eat yet.

    Swede - hated it until I got pregnant then couldn't get enough of it. Now we grow swede at eat it regularly. Mashed it replaces mash pots and roasted it tastes yummy.

    Mushrooms and onions. As a trade off, I no longer like asparagus, artichoke, dairy milk, or cake.

    Lima beans. I don't know what it was about them, but I would fight my mom about eating them, then shovel them into my napkin when she wasn't looking.

    SO many things lol
    Peas, beans, onions, peppers, brussel sprouts, etc.
    I don't like most of the little Debbie cakes I used to shovel in my mouth anymore though, which is kind of sad. I remember them to be amazingly delicious, so I buy a box and try them... and then am disgusted lol

    I hated most vegetables as a kid. And then I was a vegetarian for 18 years. :tongue:

    I hated all foods as a child. Dinner each night was an hours-long war of attrition between my mother and I where I would sit staring at her in stoney-eyed silence while she tried to negotiate, bribe, and threaten me to eat at least part of my food. I spent a significant percentage of my childhood sitting at the dinner table with my arms crossed and my jaws clenched.

    But now I like pretty much everything.

    I think the only vegetables my mom served when I was growing up were corn and green beans. I love veggies but probably would have turned up my nose at them earlier in life.

    Cauliflower, brocolli, asparagus, cooked carrots, squash, sweet potatoes. Now I'm hungry.

    rice! My mom always made white rice and I hated it. Got married and my husband made brown rice and I loved it. Must have been the texture.

    Aubergine! Our nanny would fry aubergine in loads of oil and serve it as breakfast before school! Close second would be Brussels sprouts, artichokes and celery.
