I guess I'm the only one who's tried radish. Stuff's horrible, to the point where I can't imagine anyone genuinely likes it. At least not without something that drastically alters the taste.
-Raw Celery. I will eat it cooked if its an ingredient in a dish but other than that I won't eat it. I can't understand why they pair up Buffalo wings with celery. I hated that. Switch the celery to a basket of fries.
-I also don't like sweet potato. My grandma on my Dad's side use to make it for my Sister and I when we were little. We never did liked it. Just give me a potato.
-Collard Greens. This one is a big one. In my culture if you're Black and don't like Greens then something was wrong with you. LOL. Seriously. I never liked them. It must be the sight of it that is a turn off for me. A food as a child you just didn't like to eat. {My Sister like them. She dislike beans. Never liked it as a child. Me on the other hand I like beans.} I don't even like cooked Spinach. I will eat it raw and leafy in a salad but I dislike cooked Greens.
I partially changed my mind, peas can be just OK in small quantities, when mixed in with a rice dish. Cauliflower and Broc is my new least favourite. Gonna need extra cheese on that one.
Things like spinach and even Kale can be steamed and had with a little bit of lemon juice - I like it better that way. They're both extremely good for you, as is broccoli - which is why I make a soup out of it.
Pumpkin is kinda iffy but it's OK with salt and cinnamon. Zucchini is my absolute "NOPE!" on that list. I'm pretty fond of vegetables. I eat broccoli and cauliflower every day.
Peas definitely, ugh. And spinach takes second place for me. Although I honestly don't know if I've ever had radish... Also raw cabbage is gross; cooked up with chow mein or something it can be good. Raw pumpkin is also gross, but I like pumpkin spice stuff, especially shakes and ice cream. So go figure.
I used to not like eggplant but now I kinda do. It's not my favorite thing but I can eat it. I pretty much just don't eat it because it's kind of a lot of trouble to go through to cook it for what you end up with.
When I was adding vegetables to the poll, I kept thinking of more that wouldn't fit. I had to remove eggplant and beetroot, and no one would like biting into onions.
I love onions but I guess you have a point. I wouldn't eat them like apples. I like the red onions. But really I just pretty much like onions in general.
I voted for celery but I think I hate beet more. Celery cut up into little teeny tiny pieces is okay. Beet tastes like dirt. In Brazil they like to put lots of beets in salads. It was so gross.
I don't like cucumber either. Cucumber is the one that is hardest to avoid since it's popular here they put in all sorts of sandwiches. It's not disgusting but it just the flavor is boring and not appealing.
I'm iffy on kale and parsnips. Not sure if I've had them or not.
Beets do taste like dirt. That's why I like them. Like, I wouldn't eat a handful of dirt (of course) so I'm not sure why I like the dirty beet flavor. Pickled beets (with kimchi). :lol
A few of these I haven't tried. Spinach is good. Haven't tried cauliflower, parsnips, or radishes. And I like peas, corn, carrots, lettuce, celery, beans, and broccoli. Only had squash in squash casserole, though.
