As a kid i used to hate fuul with tamis (ful medames and naan bread) but now i can't get enough of it. basically legal crack.
Mmmm smother it with garlic, cumin and some olive oil bro. Goes down beautifully
I have eaten 9 grapes.
I used to work as a sullen kid picking grapes for a winery in the summers. Hated the very thought so never ate any, not because I had any respect back then. As a poor kid, you aren't forced to try something if it would waste food: give it to the people whom it can benefit.
Now then, decades later, and we're touring another vineyard, me and my wife. "Here," says the tour guide, handing me one. "Try it."
Wife knows the deal - squick - but knows I won't be impolite while this man shows off his livelihood. Her eyes flash a dare but I didn't need that. I ate my first grape about 14 years ago from st hubertus winery in Kelowna. Didn't make a face so as not to offend. It was meh.
Since then I've had one or two more. And then we go to this fancy pants restaurant and the appetizer on the pricy-ass set menu is this Italian salad thing with all.kinds of green grapes. Fuck me but it was expensive. Ate the whole thing because we don't waste food in my family. She chuckled and rolled her gorgeous green eyes as she stole a few. That's the last 6.
So 9.
I may have had 1 hundred strawberries too. I'm livin it up.
I'd say avocados, I still wouldn't eat a slice of avocado but a little guacamole on a taco or something is OK.
Ranch.
What actually is "ranch"? I mean, what is the flavour? It's not a thing in the UK.
It's more than just a flavor, it's a way of life. 😉 You can put on salad, French fries, pizza (!!!). Doritos and Corn Nuts come in a ranch. It is a popular meme and Halloween costume. And so much more!
Ingredients
1/2 cup mayonnaise
▢ 1/2 cup sour cream
▢ 1/2 cup buttermilk or regular milk
▢ ¾ – 1 teaspoon dried dill weed
▢ 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
▢ 1/2 teaspoon dried chives
▢ 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
▢ 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
▢ 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
▢ 1/8 teaspoon finely cracked pepper
▢ freshly squeezed lemon juice to taste approximately 1-3 teaspoons, adjust to tasteI’ve grown to hate ranch, as it expands to everywhere and there are too many cheap “ranch” flavorings that just taste like chemicals
Chilies of all kinds. Right now I have a selection of chili purées in my fridge : Madagascar, Sénégal, Réunion island...
Child pickiness and Brassicus-Cultivar appreciation aside, I have another:
There were those weird times when things just wouldn't taste right. ~10 years ago I disliked cherries for tasting somewhat like alcohol, and more recently Orange juice tasted soapy to me for a time. Both of these things have since gone away and I'm back to eating just about anything.
Pickles because of spirolactone, but not as much anymore, don't got the balls for it anymore.
Pizza and burgers
Green beans. I still don't like them if they came from a can, though. But fresh ones, French cut and sauteed in garlic butter go great with meat.
