    Reading this thread for me is really funny. People are hating these foods that I love. Kale, licorice (especially good salted, though apparently other Americans hate this for some reason), raw oysters (I love them and eat them frequently), etc. I feel like people just like the things they’re comfortable with. I’ve always liked flavors others disliked though. Even as a kid, I loved spinach and black coffee, but never cared for sweets as much. Something might just be wrong with me.

          Will the Dutch allow me to stay if I like spinach? I also really like biking but it’s too dangerous where I live… Maybe I could claim to be a cyclist refugee…

      Yep, the only ones I agree with are licorice and beets. I love oysters, and most fish or sushi. Avocado? Could eat on almost anything. You can take my raw or cooked onions over my dead body. Kale is great when cooked. And lobster is gross? Are you trolling? Truffle??? I’m out, heathens.

        I didn’t see onions. Some people are crazy. Try going to a restaurant and not getting onions. I think some people just don’t know what they’re talking about. Who doesn’t like onions at least when cooked? I’ll eat them raw though. I’ve literally taken bites from an onion like an apple.

        I love it. Honestly, I have trouble naming any foods I actively dislike. There’s some I like less than others. I have to say, “Rocky Mountain Oysters” (bull testicles) are pretty low on the list of foods I don’t enjoy. Still, they’re not bad, but the texture is not great.
