Did not even want them in the house. He never ate mayonnaise, ever, because when he was little, he asked the garbage man where he took the garbage and the g-man told him, "straight to the mayonnaise factory."

I didn't try mayo until was about 20, not because I didn't think I'd like it but because it was something we just didn't have in the house as I was growing up. The only things that are on my 'I will never eat list' are celery (devils food!) and offal. I'm also not a big fan of fish unless it's covered in batter and served with chips.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04402703967636964187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-61696627045688861212017-03-03T02:26:57.563-05:002017-03-03T02:26:57.563-05:00You'll never eat onions?? One of my favourite ...You'll never eat onions?? One of my favourite foods is a fried onion sandwich. Only the onions are fried, not the whole sandwich, the bread may or may not be lightly toasted. <br />We knew about pizza via American movies, but the town I grew up in didn't have a pizza place until I went back there much later with three small children to visit my mother. And still, we didn't try it although by then I had eaten pizza and enjoyed it because big cities had pizza parlors by the early 70s.<br />These days I don't like meat of any kind on my pizza unless I make it myself with really fresh ham or salami. Too many times I've been victim to "Pizza Ham" which has gone off. I like a pineapple and cheese pizza with garlic, but only fresh garlic, so usually order just pineapple and cheese, because too may places use garlic powder, ugh!<br />Sushi is on my "never to be eaten" list along with asparagus and avocado.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-80106465276978651042017-03-03T02:07:03.662-05:002017-03-03T02:07:03.662-05:00Being Italian pizza is a given for me and my dad m...Being Italian pizza is a given for me and my dad made the best - with everything.

I liked it. I just haven't gone back for more. Half the reason is I'm not comfortable ordering it yet; need someone to kind me through it. <br /><br />I think as we grow into adulthood we are willing to try more foods.
