[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love most, with some exceptions (turnips come to mind). My parents ate a very plant forward diet, with no red meat and limited poultry/fish. I grew up eating a ton of kale, broccoli, bok choy, etc. It never occurred to me to not eat fruits and vegetables. My kids are the same.[/quote]
OP here. I grew up similarly, close to med diet though. Fun fact, I lived in Madagascar for a while and got two food "addictions" there. I started to eat a ton of bok choy and mangosteens.
Boy Choy was served in local Chinese restaurants, and after the divine tasting, I started to buy it and cook it a ton. 
Then I was at one of the thousands of local veggie and fruit stands and saw this purple thing, never heard about it before, Mangosteen. Had no idea what to think of it. So naturally, I bought a kilo of it. It was a very strange thing to open and figure out but ever since I am dying to eat them again fresh off the tree like I used to do there. Even there it was in season for a short period of time and I used to drive around town chasing the stand that had them.[/quote]
