Foods you didnt like before, that you do now...

Options
So, I dont know if its just a 'trying to lose weight' thing or an 'I'm getting older' thing, but I find myself liking some foods more now that I ever did before, I actually sort of crave them now....


Onions, I used to hate the smell of them, now I want them sauteed on everything!!
Mushrooms, never really disliked them but now I want to eat them everyday, just steam them up and let's go!!!

Just a few...


Are there any things that you have had a change of heart on?

    Tomatoes!!! I have always used ketchup and love salsa, but I couldn't stand tomatoes. Now I eat them on everything... sandwiches, hamburgers, etc.

    I used to get really bad heartburn from Bell Peppers, I tried them occasionally to see if it changed. Just recently (last year or so) it finally changed and I now enjoy eating these things. I have always loved onions, sadly they give me gas though.

    As you clear you system from the unhealthy stuff, your body will actually crave good things.

    Cheese! I used to be ok with it on a burger and that was it. Now I eat it in everything! And I can drink skim milk with cookies or cake, which never would have happened before. My cheese change really wasn't for the best, of course.

    i used to HATE banana's and beans (gross!) but now i'll eat a banana straight up or w/ pb and honey on whole wheat toast (a great post long run breakfast)--that being said i don't LOVE it, but i'll do it :) and i now eat black beans (HUGE deal) and occassionally kidney beans (but only if they're in chili and i just can't think about it)

    Avocados ... I have always liked guacamole, but for whatever reason, I would never eat plain avocados. Now, I'm almost addicted to them.

    Peant butter ... believe it or not, as I kid, I HATED peanut butter, but I discovered Jif Natural last year, and I could literally eat a whole jar of it in one sitting if I let myself.

    I think eating healthier changes your palatte a little. I haven't tried things I didn't like before lately, but a lot of the bad things i used to love don't taste as good anymore.

    I LOVE sweet potato fries now (baked, of course ;)) however the one & only time I ever tried sweet potatoes I hated them (I think it was a texture thing).

    I eat olives on pizza, but I don't eat them whole or raw. I still don't like mushrooms either! but, before my lifestyle change there weren't too many things that I didn't like eating. I always loved fruit & veggies growing up! and when I don't like a food its usually more about texture than taste.
