I thought I hated capsicum most of my life but lately (past my mid 30s) I’ve come to actually really like it raw. As in salads or sandwiches. I’m enjoying that. As a child my parents would add it frequently to meals but it would always be cooked and I was never a fan.
Or mushrooms for example. I love them almost any way except preserved. If they came from inside a tin or jar with long shelf life the taste is just horrendous.
Similar for artichokes, they must be fresh.
I love sesame seeds, but I absolutely hate sesame seed oil and I can’t understand why. The taste is so different.
Curious about yours. Any similar examples?
I’ve got that gene that converts asparagus into, uh, interesting smelling piss. Weird thing is that it hits within an hour of eating it.
I can only guess that you forgot and left out cabbage?
Fun fact, that gene is only about whether you can smell the compound in the piss, not whether your body processes asparagus into that smell.
They tested this by having people smell other people’s urine, and found that the people who can smell it in their own piss can also smell it in the piss of everyone who eats asparagus, even of the people who claim not to produce that smell.
I had no idea!
Nah, cabbage is okay. Tastes like crunchier lettuce. I don’t know why brussel sprouts taste different; they’re basically little cabbages 🤷🏻♂️
