[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband hates vegetables too. Were you forced to eat them as a kid? He wasn't so he never developed a taste for them. As an aside, are you childfree?[/quote] [b]Yes, I was forced to eat them every night with dinner[/b]. I never developed a taste for them.[/quote] Oh, grow up! So were most of us. I am assuming you don't have a lot of friends. I'd have to cook for someone like you. [/quote] Why so nasty? She was just answering the question a PP had asked her. OP I sympathize, I don't like veggies much either. I do eat a lot of fruit though, which I hope helps. I have also found that I like vegetable soups better than most other vegetable preparations. Just steam the veggies or roast or saute them with some olive oil and onions, add them to soup stock and blend. I use a hand blender and blend in the pot. Super easy, fast, and relatively tasty -- to me anyway. You can do this with carrots, squash, broccoli, peas. I also add spinach to egg drop soup. Check out Mark Bittman's "How to cook everything" soup chapter, that's where I get most of my ideas.[/quote] This is PP-- I first read her response that she was blaming her parents for her dislike of veggies--but that might been the PP's DH. My apologies if I sounded "nasty". Still, I think eating veggies is part of being an adult. I used to dislike most veggies as a kid. I read that your taste buds mellow out and you can handle more bitter tastes. Now, I crave veggies. I would agree with you re veggie soups. Also roasting veggies is a good way to bring out the sweetness in ceggies. [/quote]
