Pickles. They were too strong and sour for me. Now I love 'em.

No, if anything it's the opposite, there are foods (mostly junk foods and beverages) I used to love as a kid but now I find revolting. Most other veg and controversial foods like olives or blue cheese were always on my yes list though.
I do have some things i didn't like that now I tolerate, but saying that I love them or like them is a stretch. I think coffee is one, I drink some and can even get addicted to it but I don't consider myself a lover. Another example is eggplant, I used to hate it as a kid and now I tolerate it without loving it.
Interesting! I’m like that with many sodas and candy - too sweet. Blech!
I used to be a picky eater, but years ago I decided that I wanted to like more food - - that life would be better if I actually enjoyed foods that I would otherwise have to suffer/avoid.
I started by putting small amounts of different ingredients in my dishes (when it made sense) and I quickly developed a taste for all of them.
(Only found out later that this was a great way to do it as your microbiom directly impacts your cravings).
Onions, mushrooms, tomatoes, olives, pickles, brussel sprouts, oysters, mustard are all things I now genuinely enjoy.
Pig and chicken feet. Fat is so good.
Blue cheese
Brussel sprouts
Cauliflower soup
Green peas
Brocoli
Olives
Cauliflower soup? I am guessing it’s a creamy soup? I’ve never heard of that one before.
I agree with the rest, especially blue cheese!
Not 100% sure of the ingredients, but yes, it's creamy. Involves a lot of milk, that'sall I know as I make it from these portioned bags with powder. Topped with a litte bit of bacon.
Ranch dressing. I hated it for years, but I moved to the suburbs and suddenly it tasted good (seriously). 🤷
Bananas, pickles, onions, mustard. Now it’s like, “Whatever, just shove it down my throat.”
Kale. I hated it as a kid, but that's because my parents never removed the stems, and then boiled it down into mush, neither of which is the correct way to cook kale. Now that I cook my own, I love it and eat it regularly.
Most fish. I always liked salmon, but didn't like most other fish; now I like all fish I'm aware of.
Italian cured ham, I used to hate the taste and texture, but now, it's great!
grits. the way my mother made them when I was a kid was plain and kind of unpleasant. I add sausage and cheese to mine.
Asparagus! I hated that shit when I was 12. And now I can't wait for asparagus season.
