No. I often wonder if likes and dislikes are mainly because of what we
were used to as we grew up. I never tasted asparagus until I was well
out of my teenage years. For example I never had spicy foods as a child.
I hate anything spicey or hot and I just can't get used to the sensation
however much I try. I know that my tastes changed as I got older and
there are many things I like now that I didn't, but some things might be
fixed? I am probably talking a load of old twaddle but I often think
about it when I see some of the recipes here and I know I couldn't eat
them My grandson however can eat very spicy foods, because my
daughter has given them to him from a very early age.

Oh dear.. did that turn into a wee rant))
