What's one thing you never ate as a child?

Ginger biscuits! If we had a packet of mixed biscuits my poor Mom ended up with all the ginger ones. Now I love them!
 
Never ate as a child? I didn't know we had the option.
My siblings and I had to eat what was put in front of us, otherwise... :nono:
Let's just say, when I was a kid, child abuse was only if you ended up in hospital :-D
 
I hated peas due to them rolling off the fork, used to hide them under a gem squash shell on the plate and hid beans in my schoolsocks to feed the dog when at my gran's house
 
Pumpkin and brussel sprouts. Still don't eat brussel sprouts. Don't know how anyone can get that shit into their bodies.
 
Ox Tail stew! Hated it as a kid but now enjoy it!

Also never ate Brussel sprouts and still don't... also Cauliflower and Eggs!

Never eaten eggs... just can't get that white slime into my mouth.

PS Broccoli is another non no for me!
 
I am not even going to go down this road, I have no intention of being banned from this forum.

Come on really, look at the question. What was the one thing you said you would never eat as a child but do now.

NO, NO sorry not answering.
 
cooked carrots... could eat the orange monsters raw by the bunch, but cook it and I didn't touch it...

Technically, you've eaten loads of eggs in your life, but just didn't think about it. Cakes, cookies, muffins, scones, pancakes, waffles, etc. all got egg in it....lol :p

I have tried various versions of this crap. Sorry, I know exactly what I'm missing and I'm glad I am. One of my main goals in life is to keep on missing as much of this crap as I can. I'd rather eat bovril with icecream that this.

But uncle Rob, if the egg whites are slimy, then they are under cooked. If eggs are made correctly, the whites are stiff and the yolk is either soft or hard, but the whites should never be slimy.
 
GREEN BEANS - Raw , yes but do not cook it .Baked beans - revolts me :sick: but I love boontjie sop :)

By the way @zadiac, I read something interesting the other day about eggs. Before frying them, break the egg carefully into a sieve and wait for a moment or two, for the water from the whites to drip out. It's not much, but it actually does make a difference. When you fry the egg, the white doesn't spread all over the place.
 
Beans, of any kind

My mother taught me that many years ago. I've been doing it ever since. I really thought everyone knew about this. I was baffled when I saw this "new thing" on youtube. I don't fry eggs any other way.
