Ever realize how much your taste has changed since you were a little kid? Let me tell you-- there are so many things that I eat now that I literally thought were the most disgusting foods on earth when I was seven. Figs? Yum. But when I was seven, if someone even said the word, I ran in the other direction. You know what I understand now? I associated "fig" with the revolting taste of Fig Newtons (which I still hate, by the way). Then I made the bold decision to try a real fig a few years ago, and boy has it payed off. Figs are so delicious, and, not being Fig Newtons, really quite healthy. That's just one example of something that has changed for me personally. Sometimes, also, your taste just changes. As we get older, we become more receptive to more esoteric or complicated flavors. Think of yourself as a more sophisticated, adventurous individual than you used to be; that's always a good motivation to try a little something new.
Can you think of something that you used to find revolting, but that you adore now? I challenge you to think of something you don't like, and give it one more try. You never know- you might end up loving it!
