Onions used to make me barf as a kid, but I cook with them all the time now. I also used to dislike dolma until one day I just decided to eat some and liked it.

>>9502255
should have added onions on the original, i agree. but dolma still tastes wierd to me.

what do you think about fish sauce?

>>9502245
Brussel sprouts, any kind of seafoods, tomato, and mushrooms. I hated all of that as a kid and eat a ton of them now

>>9502255
I thought I hated onions as a kid until I had my grandma show me how to make one of my favorite foods as a kid (pasta shells and peas) and it just tastes like onion and garlic

>>9502245
Almonds. Most types of nuts, but specifically almonds. Have no idea what was wrong with me as a kid, almonds are fucking great.

Raisins

I won't eat them by themselves, but I appreciate their flavor in recipes, and their texture when they're reconstituted.

unsweetened yogurt
salsa
melted cheese (burgers, nachos)
mustard
sharp cheeses
sour cream
spinach
all alcoholic drinks, but that's obvious

>>9502245
>vinigar

I hated onions as a kid, except for the diced onions at McDonald's
Now I love them

I used to also hate Doritos and Cheetos as a kid but now I love them

I also used to hate seafood

>>9502344
You're gonna call out that but not "mayonase"?

beer

>>9502355
I missed that one, was skim reading the OP. Thanks for pointing it out. Have some hotdog buns to go with that, OP.

Strangely sweets.
As a child it would take me weeks to get through a quart of ice cream and I would almost always get chips over a candy bar. As an adult I eat about a pint of ice cream a day and straight up cannot buy baked good or pastries because I will eat an entire cake in 1 sitting without issue.

Pickles

I didn't appreciate them until I was a quarter-century old

>>9502245
Steak.

I always found my steak to be too tough to swallow but I started just chewing on it then spitting it out when I'm done to get all the taste with none of the weight gain or indigestion.

>>9502245
Avocado
Lasagna
Raw Tomato
Eggs
Beef Stews/Casseroles
Pickles
Coffee
Salami

>sushi, couldn't stand the vegetables in old rolls as a kid but then I discovered the bougier americanized rolls drenched in sauce and i can't get enough
>tea, hated it as a kid - still don't drink it much but there are times when I'd kill for a pot of hot jasmine
>mushrooms - hated the texture as a kid, now i'll throw well-cooked mushrooms on virtually anything
>peppers - still don't love peppers but I can appreciate some sauteed bell peppers in a way that I never could as a kid
>greek yogurt - texture bugged me for some reason, but now i love the feel
>cooked fish - i used to hate the texture and the more subtle flavor compared to land meat, but now I can enjoy it. some whitefish (like tilapia) is still mediocre to me, and i'll always take fish raw first

>>9502270
fish sauce is great, people usually use too much of it and it overpowers all the other flavors.
in reality you probably need less than you think you need.

shepherd's pie
lasagna
olives

i still hate ham sandwiches with butter, ew.

>>9502245
>I remember tasting it when i was a kid and gaged at the bitterness

If your tea is bitter then you've made it wrong.

>>9502245
Most things that are easily overcooked, like all brassica plants and asparagus. Once I found that lightly steaming them prevented the sulfurous-bitter compounds from forming I started eating them. If you overcook them, which is extremely easy to do, they start to taste bitter. Hence the reason why most children dislike asparagus, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, etc. Some are more sensitive than others too.

Learning how to cook better than my parents aside, there's nothing I disliked as a child that I like now. That's none store foods that is. Most store foods/brand names have changed recipes so much in an effort to make thing cheaper that they no longer taste the same. A big one was Ben & Jerry's when they were bought up by Unilever in the 1990s and literally all the recipes changed completely. I can't even eat it now.

>>9503746
George Orwell said tea is supposed to be bitter.

>>9504262
He also said he prefers to pour the milk in second.
George Orwell was a know-nothing poofter.

>>9502245
Mayonnaise, eggs, and tomatoes. And kind of oatmeal. I don't love it, but I enjoy it in the morning. I still hate cilantro and dislike corn.

>>9504267
Wait a fucking second. You pour milk first then tea?

>>9504267
>George Orwell was a know-nothing poofter.
Lol, no. He was a socialist who wrote against his contemperary socialists as being weak poofters. He also fought on the front lines and was wounded in the Spanish Civil War against the fascists.

>>9504690
precisely none of which is relevant to or excuses him from his objectively wrong opinions on tea

>>9504703
Any englishman's ideas of tea whether putting the milk in before, after or during the pour can be labeled as womanish and poofterish since they are adding milk. What a wretched waste of tea.

>>9502245
For me it was:
>raw tomatoes
>eggplant
>bananas
>avocado
>cilantro
I love all of these things now.

Tomatos, mushrooms and olives.
As I grew older I forced myself to eat them despite hating the taste and eventually learnt to like them.
I try to force myself to eat things I don't like so that I can learn to appreciate their flavours and not limit myself. It sucks, but I've found it's worth it in the end.

Any kind of wet leafy green.
Used to make me vomit, now i love it. Creamed spinach, collared greens, cilantro in stir fry, etc.

Unironically penis and nothing else. I ate more grossout stuff as a kid than I do now

>>9504786
At what point in your childhood did you attempt to eat penis?

>>9504791
It was really not a choice. An older boy at the orphanage thought you had to try everything once
With your butt. He was right though, since I acquired taste for it.

>>9502245
My mom. I really miss her.

>>9502245
I didn't hate grapes but I grew up during the Uvas No thing, so every time I eat them I feel guilty. I actively avoided them until my 20s and even now I don't eat them unless they're basically shoved in my face

>>9505077
Checked and didn't come for these feels.

>>9502245
>Olives.
>Broccoli.
>Sprouts.
Fucking love all 3 now.
Had some amazingly tasty sprouts earlier.

>>9504267
So you pour milk into hot water then add tea?

>>9505637
You prepare tea and then pour it over milk, if you must taint your tea so.

>>9502245
Soft boiled eggs.

When I was a kid, I refused eat them, only hard boiled, because I thought it looked disgusting. Now, I love them.

>>9502245
I remember just barely tasting a bit of jalapeño as a kid and gagging/making a scene. Shit is magical to me now as are a whole host of hot peppers and chilis.

>>9502381
Is my man chilling with a Stromboli in his fridge? Dude you know I'm downs

>tomatoes, though I only eat cherry or grape toms
>onions, love white onion on a burger, red on a sandwich or salad
>mayo, still don't love it but a thin spread on a sandwich is divine
>Brussel sprouts, never gave them chance but once I did holy moly
>cabbage, basically just big brussel sprouts
>fish, this probably stemmed from a bad experience rather than ignorance
>beer, I think most people go through this
>radish, just autistic ignorance and refusal to eat something new
>apricots, not a fan of fresh ones but dried apricots are top tier
>raisins, I always loved grapes so this is just some more 'tism
>pork fat, I always meticulously cut the fat from chops and such but I've grown to appreciate it's flavor

That's all I can think of, I'm sure there's more

>>9505077
Maybe she's at a tom petty concert bruh

>>9504762
this

>>9502245
>Mayonnaise is a big one.
>Sweet Potato
>Ramen

Most of the stuff I really hated as a kid, I still hate. Onions are a big one.

>>9502245
>Things you hated as a child and love as an adult?

Anal sex.

>>9502245
Cheese. Wouldn't eat any cheese except mozzarella and provolone when I was a kid. I like a lot of cheese now unless they're too cheesy like Roquefort and Gorgonzola. Still won't eat a cheeseburger.

>>9502245
Coconut's the only mainstream food I've despised my entire life

A lot but the big 3 where I did a 180 on is cole slaw, sushi, and broccoli

>>9504554
Yeah apparently it's so the milk doesn't get shocked or some shit like that.

>>9502245
Coffee.
Aged cheese

I dont know how you call it in english, but its a cobination of cooked pork pieces that are thrown most of the time, douced with liquid fat, a lot of pepper, salt and garlic, packed and chilled into a pigs stomack, or large sausage tube.
Tastes kinda like spam but a lot better.

Also i hated eating swine cocks. Now i have a steady supply of smoke dried boar or swine cocks and testies which i eat a day before sex. Testicles make my dick hard as rock, it even hurts sometimes how hard it is.
My dick and balls are probably more healthy than a race horse.

I still hate fish. I eat tuna but only when im hungover

Green olives
I used to think they had the literal smell of baby shit. Now I can't get enough

chile rellenos. mom made them, they looked disgusting, i may have even tried them, too bitter. now, the more bitter the sauce the better. same with enchiladas.
