I took a 48 year old man to get falafel for the first time in his life last week.

He loved it.

But he doesn’t like any “greenery” so he had it in a pita bread with chickpeas and houmous. I had to explain that he’s gone for a triple chickpea sandwich there. He had thought falafel was made of cheese.

How is your ripeness judgement going? I used to be quite good at picking ones prime for eating in the next day, but recently my judgement has been all over the shop

I used an avocado for the first time about a month ago. Had eaten them out before and bought guacamole and whatnot, but had never cheffed with one before.

Never liked raw/crunchy onion in my food until probably 2 years ago.

Sampled brown sauce for the first time about 18 month ago.

I started eating liver last year at the age of 35 as I read it’s really good for your health and at the time I was catching a cold nearly every month. Still not entirely sure that I like it but I do seem to be healthier at the moment

Not food but coffee and tea. Didn’t drink either until I was in my early twenties. Felt well sophisticated when I had my first latte from starbucks :smirk:

Not really late as such but as a kid I had a fucking horrible aversion to nuts, the smell of them alone would make me feel real queasy. Then at about 15 had a real craving for them. Never looked back.

always surprised when people have strong feelings about onions. they’re just kind of there. hardly ever notice them.

Me only wrong in the Star Wars thread? I’ll take that, while disputing I was wrong in the Star Wars thread

I hated (and still hate) peanuts and just kind of assumed I hated all nuts. how wrong I was. pistachios were the gateway nut.
