I'm going to admit to quite liking chicken paste with, rather expensive, salad cream

I didn't like any food growing up. My home food was bland and claggy and I was forced to eat it.

A couple of years ago I had

Boiled bacon and cabbage for the first time since childhood and it was amazing. Took me nearly 4 decades to discover how something was supposed to taste.

Depends on which ones. Those that are like french toast are great and enjoy them often. I also like the crisproll ones, great with some cheese etc. Even a biscotti really is like a sweet rusk

I'd rather have a banana on Weetabix now. I think sweetener tastes horrible.

I hated pork when I was younger (mainly because my mother was probably the UK's worst cook) but absolutely love it now

(now it's cooked properly and not like chewing the bottom of a sandal )

Walls sausages, just tubes of fat and gristle. What was my mum thinking? She was thinking about how to feed a family on a pittance I know that now. I still eat sausages but they're the 'good' ones.
