Brussels sprout, celeriac, any sort of cabbage. Still hate all of them 65 years on.

I can still eat them [oysters] although I've lost my verve for them after that incident.
At my college farewell dinner in 1982, two of us (family) ordered oysters. One other, my mum, tried one. What happened later was a festival in violent vomiting. One bog. Three people with serious food poisoning!

It was a very interesting night.

That's good, but really does your cynicism know no bounds? i got food poisoning from a foot long hot dog 40 years ago, thought I was a goner. I didn't like stuffed olives when I was very young, but got over it, didn't like scalloped potatoes, got over it, spinach, got over it. I still don't care for kidneys and gizzards, but I could get over it if I was hungry and combined it with bacon mushrooms and onions and some HP..
