Seafood is one of those foods I never thought i'd end up
growing to love and find my self saying, "MmMm FISH"
Question: What are some foods that you previously
disliked
but now can't seem to get enough of?
but now can't seem to get enough of?Any other ex-fish or ex-cilantro haters out there?
hahaha kelsey i have to admit i totally laughed!!! ahhahaha but i have a soft spot for weirdly-shaped baked goods.. the defect ones... i like those!!! agh everytime you post muffin pictures (most days...) i totally get a muffin craving!!!
ReplyDeletei love cilantro... i used to love fish but i am kind of sick of it right now! i still like it, but i just had a LOT of it when i was in japan & south africa
Cute birth defected muffin :-D. I've always loved seafood, always will - yummers! I used to hate tomato soup, but lately I've been loving it. Hope the painting is going well.
ReplyDeleteI just laughed out loud when you said "birth defected muffin", hehehe. I looooooove Cilantro and fish! Esp salmon, so basically I'm drooling over your wrap :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great Thursday!
-Laur
Wow it has a SERIOUS defect :P
ReplyDeleteI used to dislike most vegetables - But now I can't get enough of them!
That muffin is muffin-art. The abstract kind. So beautiful. :) haha.
ReplyDeleteI used to hate tomatoes, but I love them now! I also used to hate sweet potatoes but now they are one of my favorite foods.
hey beautiful chica!!
ReplyDeletethe muffin looks delicious...nothing wrong with crazy shapes and sizes! I want the recipe for this bad boy! hehehe!
I hate fish...:( I wish I didn't! I used to tell people when I was younger that I can't Eat my fellow swimmers!! :)
I've recently falling in LOVE mushrooms, like seriously they could replace the guy I'm dating and I wouldn't mind! ;)
hehe!
I heart you girlie!
xoxo!
odd shaped foods just mean it was homemade w/ love :)
ReplyDeletei never liked stevia! until about 18 mos ago. now, i would die if i couldnt have it!!
Poor muffin. But inner beauty is what matters right? :)
ReplyDeleteI used to hate mustard, milk, cauliflower, brocoli and everything green, sweets (how strange!), garlic, cream soups...there is a long list. I used to love meat. Now Ive been a vegetarian for about 6-7 years, I love chocolate and all the other things I mentioned I used to hate! Im wondering if there are some more massive changes coming to my kitchen.
I hope you will post some more pictures of your room after everything is done! <3
You need to stop featuring delicious (even the defected ones) muffins on here because it's making me crazy with cravings! I haven't found any gluten-free, dairy-free ones over here that aren't full of preservatives and have been sitting on a shelf for months! There better be some when we're in the States :)
ReplyDeleteOh, and I love the colour of your room. My bedroom used to be that colour- love it. xxx
Hehe, love your mutated muffin!
ReplyDeleteI used to dislike avocados and guacamole, but now I eat them at least once a day! Mmmm green goodness!
Your salmon wrap looks heavenly. I ate tuna salad for lunch today and it was tasty, but would have been better if it was wrapped in a yummy tortilla like yours!
Your muffins always look too good, even the crazy ones!!!
ReplyDeleteHmmmmm, used to hate honey and peanut butter, now I love them both!
Always loved mushrooms, but just started eating them raw - now I can't get enough. So good!!!!
I don't know about celantro... but I am a total ex-fish hater :P I LOVE salmon and shrimp now, but I used to turn my nose up at them both! That wrap looks so delicious.. I am jealous :)
ReplyDelete<3 Tat
I Liked the birth defect muffin :).
ReplyDeleteI nevre thought i would ever pizza. Yes may sound wierd but I never liked them. Untill Rome and now I eat them a lot. Kinda funny!
i love your hunger for trying new things!
xx
lol poor muffin! He just wants to fit in! : )
ReplyDeleteI am loving the salmon wrap!!!!!
I used to hate fish when I was younger, now I LOVE it, especially sushi!!!!
I will let you know how the syrup is that I got!
love you !!!!!!!!!!! xoxo
Poor muffin - I hope he doesn't get teased.
ReplyDeleteI used to hate avocados.... and ketchup! That is crazy because I douse EVERYTHING in ketchup!
As a kid i didn't think I liked mushrooms and now I enjoy all types of them!
ReplyDeleteCantaloup...I thought it was disgusting as a kid, now I eat one in two days and that is only because I pace myself!
ReplyDeleteYour muffins are killing me! Now I have to make more because my last batch is already gone...in 24 hours we ate 13 muffins!
haha...that muffin! it looks like a scone on a muffin body almost :P definitely very alien-esque.
ReplyDeleteThat potato salad and fish wrap looks great, too! I used to hate all things fishy, as well -- but now I don't mind salmond, shrimp, or scallops (though haven't had any in ages.) I also used to hate pretty much all veggies. We know that's changed! haha.
Ha ha- looks like the muffin got a little overexcited and tried to escape the muffin pan...
ReplyDeleteI used to hate avocado. It grossed me out. And asparagus. Now I can't get enough... :)
I love when muffins come out strange like that - as long as the muffin top is sizeable, it doesn't matter (cause that's the best part). Your muffin looks like a whale to me.
ReplyDeleteEven as an adult, I wasn't fond of Swiss chard, but I recently made up a recipe that worked really well - sauteed with garlic, chickpeas, and raisins - so more chard is on my grocery list this week.
LOL - that poor muffin. Let's see, I used to think I hated beets (had never really even tried them) and I realize I like them. I hated bananas growing up and now I crave them. Oh, and kale, was afraid of it until I finally made soup with it after our neighbors gave us some they didn't want (they don't like it, I'll gladly take it now). Hope you're having a great week sweetie!
ReplyDeleteahh, that salmon wrap looks so frickin´good, I wanna lick my screen! I guess I might have a lack of omega 3s?? I used to hate avocado, but for a about three weeks I was craving them, until I finally gave in last weekend. I´m still not too sure about them, but a spoonful can´t hurt ;)
ReplyDeletexoxo Mel
LOL that muffin!? mmm i love salmon, in fact i have some packed for my lunch today as well!
ReplyDeleteI never thought I would like tofu, kale, black beans, or fish - many staples in my diet now! Weird to think about.
ReplyDeleteBest muffin pic ever!!!
ReplyDeleteI did not like Greek Yogurt for a long time, and now LOVE it!
I think the muffin is adorable, it has elephantitas or something :) Made with love, just like other commenters have said!
ReplyDeleteI didn't like beets for a long time, until my sister made them for me -- it is all about the preparation!
haha I *think* they over-filled the muffin tin just a little :)
ReplyDeleteugh me and cilantro have neverrrr gotten along lol. But I used to hate avocado and now I love it! I try and re-taste things every few years or so because your taste buds change...but yeah celery has been a no-go my entire life!
As long as the muffin tasted good then it makes up for its silly shape ;) I used to hate fish and I have really grown to love it. I also have come to enjoy brussel sprouts and asparagus, two foods that I would run from in the past!
ReplyDeleteI like "defects" - makes it interesting...and usually more to eat ;)
ReplyDeletei love seafood! i've always liked it though. i used to dislike banana pepper and jalapenos but now i love them!
ReplyDeleteTake a closer look at the third pic down...
ReplyDeleteThere are two strategically placed chocolate chips above a smear of red.......do you see it? It's your muffin's face!
That's a face ANYBODY can love.
I love seafood now, but wouldn't touch it when I was little and much less in my decade + stretch as a vegetarian. Now it makes my heart sing.
How's your room coming along?

I was thinking about how I used to hate honey. This summer I've been putting more and more of it on my toast every day. I also used to hate mustard. 3 or 4 summers ago I did the same thing: I decreased my mayonnaise and upped my mustard on my sandwiches. Mayonnaise gone, lots of mustard!
ReplyDeleteI don't know why but if there's a weirdly shaped food, I love it. I always search for the funny shaped chips and this muffin would definitely have been my choice!!!
ReplyDeleteI used to hate mushrooms when I was little but now I love them!!
looks are TOTALLY not everything ;)
ReplyDeletelooks imperfectly delicious
have a great day lovely lady
That is definitely a strange looking muffin. I am sure it tasted delicious though!
ReplyDeleteI was not the biggest mushroom fan but after trying them in different dishes, found out i love them!!
I used to turn my nose up to seafood but around 16 I changed and started to CRAVE it! Now i love it! That salmon wrap looks AMAZING!
ReplyDeletehaha...the birth defected muffin looks better than regular muffins...the top is my fav part, and it looks like you got extra!!!!!
ReplyDeleteXO
Ok I didn't promise I wouldn't laugh ;p lol seriously so funny! I love how you described it too!!! That leftover potatoes look like a yummy potato salad! I haven't had one all summer--I just realized this! Shame on me hehehe
ReplyDelete-raises hand- I use to be a cilantro hater! But not anymooore.
XOXO
p.s. sending my energy your way!!! Cloud nine has lots of room :)
hahaha you are hilarious! Your poor muffin! Hope it was good! That wrap looks awesome too! Making me hunger :)
ReplyDeleteI grew up hating fish...I was served some amazing platters of seafood that I repeatedly turned down. Sometime in my late teens, I changed my mind, and now I love fish and will likely be eating it tonight!
ReplyDeleteI used to haaaate bananas and seafood and now I love both! I eat a banana most every day and seafood is my top pick when dining out :).
ReplyDeleteI want those potatoes! They look so good!
ReplyDeleteI don't know if this counts, but I used to hate wine and now I can't get enough of it. :)
I've seen (and sadly, baked) worse. I once got a scone that resembled algae cause it was a "green tea" scone. Never get baked green pastries! As a kid a never cared for yogurt, now I go through a few cartons a day!
ReplyDeleteI used to hate fish and now I like some of it - not a fan of salmon though. I like cilantro in small doses.
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised your blog title doesn't have something to do with muffins, considering how much you love them! That is a cute, albeit deformed, muffin! :D
ReplyDeleteHmm I hated seafood until my mid-teens, and now I love it!
I actually hated peanut butter and chocolate together. Now I never eat peanut butter without rolling it in some unsweetened chocolate!
ReplyDeleteI used to HATE all the foods I eat almost everyday now: yogurt, salad, oatmeal, cottage cheese...I didn't like any of it! But now I love the stuff!
ReplyDeleteOh and, Poor mutilated muffin! haha, still tasty though, i bet!
dude, the deformed muffins are always the best kind!
ReplyDeletelol....sorry, i still can't handle cilantro. i used to dislike tomatoes and carrots when i was a kid, but now i love 'em . especially carrots on my Subway sandwich. the combination with sweet chili sauce (yes, they have that here) is SOOO good.
That wrap actually looks REALLY tasty! The muffin definitely looks funky, but still delicious. Poor little guy.
ReplyDeleteThere are a ton of foods I didn't like when I was younger, but like now (in fact I have a post coming up where I asked my readers the same question), such as crunchy peanut butter, artichokes, and yogurt!
The only vegetable I ate as a child was cucumber. Turns out my mom cooked the death out of most fresh vegetables, which is why I hated them.
ReplyDeleteThe first time I tasted fresh cooked asparagus I was amazed! So now baby spinach, asparagus, spaghetti squash are staples!
Awww poor muffin! Still looks tasty though :) And that salmon wrap looks DELISH! Mmm. I used to HATE the texture of oatmeal, but now I can't get enough!
ReplyDeleteI love the hippo muffin! Haha and salmon is so delish... still can't stomach cilantro though!
ReplyDeleteI bet that muffin tasted mighty good, even if it looked a bit funny. :)
ReplyDeletePreviously hated (but now loved foods):
ReplyDelete- Fish
- Olives
- Shrimp
I have always loved cilantro!
That muffin really did have a birth defect. I think it should have that checked out.
ReplyDeleteI am an ex-fish hater! Now I can't get enough of it!
aw poor muffin! I've always loved fish, but I had a strong hatred for sour cream..but now I can't get enough of it :)
ReplyDeletexoxo
I hate perfect muffins. I like them deformed, bc usually that means more odd-shaped muffin tops for me, and we all know that is the best part. I used to hate broccoli. Now it's my fave!
ReplyDeleteThat muffin does look funny, but I'd still eat it :)
ReplyDeleteAww! A muffin that only it's 'mother' could love. :)
ReplyDeleteI know that I used to HATE tomatoes and guacamole when I was a kid and now I can't get enough of them! I don't think i ever really had a problem with fish and my parents never made anything with cilantro, but both are now refrigerator staples for me! As well as tomatoes and avocadoes :)
I definitely laughed out loud before you told us not to when I saw that muffin :)
ReplyDeleteI used to hate fish and now I love it!! I also used to hate cilantro. I don't LOVE it now, but I definitely eat it. I love that I've grown up!
Sues
I literally laughed out loud at the title of this post. Awesome.
ReplyDeleteAnd I used to hate cucumbers when I was a kid (okay, I hated them until 4 months ago) but this summer I can't eat enough!! Aah to be an adult... :)
Ex-cilantro all the way!
ReplyDeleteWhat a funny looking muffin!! And salmon is great.
ReplyDeleteHey! Just stumbled onto your blog - the name is so cute:)
ReplyDeleteThe muffin does look sad - but still delicious!
I used to hate bell peppers, which now I honestly cannot believe.
I used to have avocados (or is it "es"?) and guac but now love it!
