Food I used to hate as a kid....

[JamezF]

I really didn't like mushrooms or liver when I was a child. Mushrooms because they were slimy when cooked and liver because it was tough as old boots. Very happy to eat either now, especially when the liver is from our own lambs (or pigs, which I usually make into pate).

These days I'll consider eating pretty much anything as long as it's well-prepared. We had some excellent meals at The Fat Duck before Heston Blumenthal became well-known and it became unaffordable. The one thing I really can't stomach is marmite. I find even the smell of it is just too offensive to want to near it.

Frog chosen as an example because it was outside of our experience I could easily have said drone brood !

I now quite like drone brood... fresher the better... certainly my tastes have changed as I approach senility!
