I have a strong dislike for beets.

Recently re-introduced them into my meals. And found I can accept them in;
1) small pieces and fairly dried.

I gag at the thought of Chicken-ala-King.... basically the innards of a chicken pot pie.

If you grew up in the 50s and 60s , you ate waaaaaay too much of this glup.

Vinegar. It cuts the earthiness of the beets.

Plus it makes a really pretty purpley beet juice when you're done.

Things that I've discovered and re-discovered that I enjoy include, but are not limited to:

white asparagus
goat cheese with blueberry goo
steamed veggies (but not brussel sprouts, cuz they and I are NOT friends)

avocado and guacamole. as a kid we never ate this at home, and i usually went out to eat with my sister and she hates avo so she would always have it taken off whatever she ordered. i took after her and just assumed it was disgusting and never really tried it until i worked at jimmy john's. then after that i could do avocado spread and the occasional guac at restaurants, but only recently have i been able to eat whole avocados and incorporate them into my cooking at home without getting weirded out.

popcorn with sugary toppings instead of salty. still kind of wary of this one - i can do caramel corn but still the traditional kettle corn with sugar freaks me the hell out.
