[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like very little produce. I grew up disliking it (very picky eater, still am). I hate the slimy-ness of onions although I love the smell/flavor. Grew up having to make the vegetables for dinner each night and hated it. I'd dump the frozen square of veg into the corningware and microwave it until it was limp and wilted for years. Then my mother got a wok and all we ate was onion, mushroom, broccoli and water chestnuts with either chicken or steak cut up. Every night for years.

I wish I could learn how to steam broccoli - I was at a friend's house once who served tiny pieces of broccoli and cauliflower in a bowl and it was SO good. I asked how she made it and she said she steamed it, but I need someone to really show me how step by step at home. Mostly, I eat salads that have romaine, cucumber, carrots, and then non-vegetables. I tried to teach myself to like red bell peppers but couldn't get into them. I couldn't finish one before it went bad. I tried to cut up tomato and put them in my scrambled eggs, but I could taste the tomato and really hated it.

I like plums, pluots, pears, apples, banana, cherries, strawberries, blueberries, and grapes.[/quote]

The frozen square dumped into Corningware…yes!  That was my childhood too.  Speaking of, do they still make those frozen blocks of lima beans? Those were my fav as a kid[/quote]
