In fact, this is the first time I've ever had strawberry yogurt with real strawberries, the first time I've tried a real strawberry chunk in years. And nope, I still don't like it. When I was younger, I used to get the kid yogurt with sprinkles. It was generally strawberry flavored, but I always thought it was the artificial taste that I liked. Now I realize, yep, I like strawberries. Just not the texture. Ewwwah!
Actually, I used to legitimately be afraid of certain fruits. Like peaches, I used to cry (as a little girl) when ever I saw the inside of a peach. It. Would. Make. Me. Cry. Since when do fruits scare children? And watching "James and the Giant Peach" was no walk in the part either.
I guess it's sort of strange, I love strawberry flavored things, just not the fruit itself. The same is true with cherries, pomegranate, and oranges. I love cherry flavored things, I adore pomegranate frozen yogurt, and I drink lots of orange juice (without the pulp).
What strange foods do you have a "love hate relationship" with?
I used to have a relationship like that with cherries where I loved the flavor but hated the fruit. Now, I actually like cherries, though, so I guess it's not that applicable.
ReplyDeleteI can't think of any current love hate food relationships. It's an interesting idea, though.
I hope I can get over the distaste to the slimy feel of the food. I tried to today, but it just didn't work!
ReplyDeleteKiwi... Something abt the sour sweet flavour, It's kinda mix feeling :)
ReplyDeleteI'm the exact same. I adore anything strawberry flavoured except actual strawberries. It's very bizarre. I wish I could eat them because they look gorgeous but I hate the seeds too, plus the tiny hairs on them freaks me out!

@Hazel: I know what you mean, they're so yummy but yuuuck.
ReplyDelete@Riley: It sucks that your allergic!
Haha this post is hilarious!! I completely understand how you feel.. the same thing happens with me and Tuna!!
ReplyDeleteMy sister used to refuse to eat all kinds of food because of the texture. Apparently its pretty common, but i've never heard of someone being afraid.

@Hannah: I can definitely understand Tuna fears. Personally, I love it. But I know plenty of people who are afraid of it.
ReplyDelete@Bre: I can't explain the fear. I guess you could say that I was a strange child. I was afraid of ants as well.
So this kinda takes away the healthiness of strawberries but I dip them in sugar to cancel out the texture! It's the only way ill eat them ow, not because it has sugar on it but because I can't feel the texture and I get the deliciousness of the fruit!
ReplyDelete@LittleLeah That is such a wonderful idea, I will definitely have to try it next time I'm around strawberries. Maybe I can train myself to get used to the flavor...
