What are some foods you used to hate, but now enjoy?

• ernest_t_bass

  

  Sometimes I can't get over the rubbery texture of asparagus.
• Automatik

  

  Guinness and other stouts are another.
  
  I used to be a bitch, would just sip a Guinness and wouldn't like it. Then one day I was like "f*ck this" time to get over it...loved it ever since. I guess it is somewhat of an acquired taste. It can be dangerous....goes down smooth.

  What kind of tomatoes are you eating?
• Automatik

  

  I don't eat raw tomatoes either. Fucking gross. I've tried...can't do it.
• Laley23

  

  Asparagus, onions, peppers, blue cheese (the actual cheese, not the dressing), salsa
  
  I could probably go on and produce a huge list. I didnt eat anything when growing up. When I hit 8th grade and started to actually grow and put on weight and shit I started eating almost anything my mom put in front of me.
  
  Still cant do tomatoes, mushrooms or sushi. Fuck them.

  Also, coffee. As a high schooler/early collegian, I had to have it with cream and sugar. Now it's black - maybe a splash of milk if I want to cool it down a bit (aka Starbucks coffee)

  Exactly the same for me on both of these.

  Same with this. When I was younger I never understood why people would want to burn the hell out of their mouth while eating, but love spicy food now.

  This.
  
  I'll also add condiments, deli meats (turkey, roast beef, still hate ham), and pizza toppings. I was very picky and had to have just butter with my pasta (no meatballs), plain pizza, and refused to eat any sort of meat that wasn't warm.
  
  Now I'll eat pretty much anything as long as it's not too calorie laden.

  Everything I hated as a kid, I still hate. Only thing I hate though are brussel sprouts and lima beans.
• Classyposter58

  

  I used to like seafood and now I not really that much. Also used to hate wine, now I love it, especially a nice dry white wine
• Heretic

  

  Man, more than I could count. I was super-picky as a kid.
  
  From the OP, mustard is one. A lot of veggies also fit and a lot of other things.
• ernest_t_bass

  

  I picked up some brussel sprouts specifically b/c of this thread.
• Manhattan Buckeye

  Onions
  
  As a kid I couldn't stand it.
  
  Now, it needs to be on everything.
• iclfan2

  

  Tomatoes
  Mushrooms
  Brussel sprouts
• Ironman92

  

  No big changes but onions are probably the biggest for me.
• hasbeen

  

  salads.
  fish.
• sherm03

  

  Hated broccoli as a kid. Now I love it.
  
  I also hated all Chinese food and now I could eat it just about every day.

  Good call on the Chinese food....by far my #1, don't know how I forgot it.
