I enjoy spinach when it is raw. Cooked is a little dicey though. I don't like my veggies mushy at all!

I do like my spinach -mushy is fine, with lots of butter.... I like it fresh in salads too.

yep me... when i was young I hated many foods... now I eat allmost everything but something that will never change is all sorts of fruitcakes

I don't mind liver and I love spinach and pretty much all vegetables, raw and cooked. I'll even eat fruitcake as long as I can cut the taste with a strong cup of tea.

But I won't eat kidneys of any type. I had it ONCE as a child -- decades ago and I still remember it. It was mushy and chewy at the same time and had a very bad feel in the mouth. It had a bad smell too, a hint of God knows what. The texture itself was terrible. Nope, I won't eat kidneys ever!

I can't do tofu and I don't like sour Kraut. My mom use to make them both for my dad and we had to eat it. I fed a lot of tofu to the dog when I was a kid.

I love spinach..never tried tofu though. Funnily enough I watch a cookery program on TV last night that showed you how tofu was made, it was very interesting...but then I like thing like that.

I cannot believe so many people hate liver. Yummy! Also very good for you to eat as well. One of my favorites.

For me eating is an over all sensorial experience, anything that slightly disturbs my senses is sure to go on the "I do not like list".

Whenever try to eat foods with unfavorable textures such as liver or prawns, I immediately get a terrible sensation in my teeth and I am instantly unable to swallow!

Smell also cause a problem when it comes to including these food types in my diet . Anything that has a strong pungent smell is automatically on my "yeuck list". Foods like fish, eggs and lamb al big no no's. The smell of them even cooking kills my appetite and gives me the sensation that I am going to hurl!
