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 don't like:

  • hot fruit
  • crisp vegetables cooked past al dente
  • salt (a little, but way less than anyone else likes)
  • putting fruit in pastries or bread (my wife's caramel apple crumble pie is an exception)
  • raisins in anything (especially cookies and bread)

I like fruits and vegetables, but generally speaking only in whole-form.
