Are there any foods you hated as a kid, but tried later as an adult and found that you like them?
If so. which foods?
Definitely onions. Always loved the smell but they always ended up being too spicy for my childhood tastes. But now I love them!
Steak. Filet Mignon to be exact. My dad made me try it when I was little and I hated how you could just keep chewing and chewing it like gum but it never felt like it was time to swallow. Now, I love it. A seasoned stake cooked rare, cool red in the middle... I'm salivating just thinking about it.
Beans! Cornbread was the only thing that got mine down as a kid but now I can even eat them cold!
I used to hate cheese as a child, which was strange since pretty much every kid I've ever known loves mac 'n cheese. I even hated cheetos. Of course now I'm older I love it and I don't understand why I hated it so much.
The dread of spinach ... but I love it now! Yummm.. even on pizza.
I really didn't like bitter gourd when I was a kid because it was really bitter. But now, I cook it and really like it. It's still bitter but it's really nutritious so I eat them. The question now is how I get my kids to eat them.
No, we were poor and in the middle of post WWII rationing, I had to eat the food that was served or go hungary. Perhaps a principle that should be applied to the spoiled, over stuffed on junk food, brats of today
Cabbage rolls. I always thought the smell of them cooking was horrible, yet I was curious enough to try them and found out I enjoy them.
For some reason I hated cheese, couldn't even bear the smell. Today, can't live without it... Go figure.

I've also tried Ostrich and Antelope which at the time I thought were CRAZY.I got the idea for this forum when I was watching I'm a Celebrity, Get...

I'm an atheist, and even though I'm a generally good person (volunteer at an animal shelter, nice to people, generous, etc.), I've been told I'm going to hell simply because I don't take part in any religion. I'm really not trying to start a fight or argument, I'm really just curious- why are...

I have tried some paid online survey sites, but find that they don't pay well. I'm not looking to make $50 a survey. But I'm also not willing to spend an hour taking a survey for 50 cents either.Are there any sites hubbers would recommend.

Ever say something to your kid you later regretted?My mom wished upon my sister for her to have a child that would be three times as bad as she was being. My sister did indeed have that child, but fell upon hard times and my parents adopted him from her. Now they have a child three...
