While I consider myself an adventuresome eater, Will had definitely broadened my horizons. I generally refrain from saying I don’t like a certain food until after I’ve tried it – as that’s only fair – Will has convinced me to retry some foods I’d previously written off, such as:
Mangoes. Apparently I told Will on our first date that I hated mangoes – totally normal first-date talk, right? – but now I eat dried mangoes like they are nature’s candy. Look out, raisins!
Cream Cheese. I still don’t like it on bagels (heck, I don’t really like bagels) but I’m starting to like it more as an ingredient in other dishes. Same goes for Mayo and Sour Cream. I don’t want any of these items plain, but they work well in other things (except sushi – I will never accept cream cheese in sushi). Usually, Will just refrains from telling me that one of these items is in a sauce he prepares so I don’t get all pre-judgey.
Crab Rangoon. It wouldn’t be my first choice of appetizer, but the thought no longer makes me ill.
Ground Beef. I don’t even remember why I used to hate this, but now I look forward to beef taco night.

You are totally right about cream cheese in sushi (and I would also add that ingredients like barbecue sauce don’t belong there either). And I really don’t like ground beef. I was a vegetarian for years and was fine with the fake-meat crumbles that are a lot like ground beef, but there’s something about it that still just weirds me out.

Yeah, I hated the texture… or thought I did…

I used to avoid mayo like the plague — I would accept Miracle Whip on turkey sandwiches and the like. I still don’t have a jar of it in the fridge or anything, but I find it’s much improved with some flavor – like garlic aioli or sriracha mayo, that sort of thing. In small doses.
there are also a few foods I thought I didn’t like as a kid, but it was mostly because I’d never HAD them — avocado/guacamole and Brussels sprouts come to mind. I loooove good guacamole now, and when I realized Brussels sprouts were just tiny cabbages that are great roasted with olive oil and garlic, all was well.

I definitely thought I hated guac/avocados because I’d never really had them!

Heya this is somewhat of off topic but I was wondering if blogs
use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML.
I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding know-how so I wanted
to get guidance from someone with experience.
Any help would be enormously appreciated!
