Used to like it, now can't stand it

[Munch]

Use to love spring and pickled onions. Now can't stand any kind of onion.

In contrast, I use to hate all forms of seafood, but now love it, even oysters

Pickled herring--that brings back memories.  My grandfather would eat a jar of those things as a snack.  I thought they were nasty as a kid--horrid to think of now.  But then he was from the old country and put sugar on his lettuce.  Put a sugar cube in his mouth to drink his coffee.  Loved blood sausage and pault.  Didn't like much of what he ate, but I sure loved that guy!

Used to eat sardines with my granddad.  He would put mustard on them and we would eat them with crackers.  Now I can't imagine eating those things.  All those crunchy little bones.  Nastay!

Television and commercials


something happened in the last couple years, I don't know what, but I can't stand television or commercials. Commercials that are supposed to be funny come off as extremely stupid, un-funny, and transparent. And television is a load of shit too. If there is a show I want to watch, I'll watch it on demand or on my computer so I don't have to deal with the rest of the shows or commercials.

Anchovies on anything especially pizza.

Hey, interesting post, aitm.  I'm with you and pizza.  I used ot like it, now I get queasy anytime someone around me mentions we should get some. 

BTW, I'd like to point out this only counts for fast food pizza (Domino's, Pizza Hut, etc.).  I really enjoy pizzas made by real pizzarias, with good, fresh toppings that don't include canned olives and mushrooms (gag).

Oh, that's one, used ot love canned olves as a kid.  I could eat tons of them.  Now I am very grossed out by their metallic taste.

I used to like pickled herring, now I can't figure out HOW I even used to like that stuff, lol.

My grandfather used to by pickled herring in huge jars.   I would guess somewhere in the neighborhood of 6 to 10 pounds per jar.  He would put it on hard tack, which I can seldom find anymore, although there is a product called something like Wassa light that comes close.  I liked pickled herring as a kid and still do, but it has to be packed in wine sauce.  I think it has a special name, which I never really learned.  I can tell it's what I like by looking at it.  There's some other types of pickled herring that really turn me off, however.

My grandfather was from Sweden, and I think it was part of his heritage.  He proudly called himself a "herring choker".  He also had a beer delivery guy, sort of beer milkman.  The beer man had keys to our basement, and would wheel in 4 or 5 cases of beer, and take out the empties.  I'm not sure that has anything to do with herring, but while it seemed normal to have a beer guy with keys to your basement back then, I think it was probably a cultural thing like the herring.  I remember the name of the beer he drank.  It was called Yusay Pilson.  I've never seen it since I was a kid.

SGOS--hardtack--love that stuff!  My grandmother used to make it and it was wonderful!  Real butter on hardtack!  Food of the gods!  My grandparents lived on a small farm north of Portland, Oregon and so could get quite a bit of the Swedish foods back in the day.  Seems there was a large number of immigrants from Sweden, Denmark and Norway there; especially Swedes.  Until about 25 yrs ago I could get Swedish hardtack from a Swedish store in Portland.  Now I can get a good version of it from Raleys here in town.  It comes in a round package and is a very good hardtack.  I remember my great uncle listening to Swedish language radio and then, treat of treats, Polka and Shaddish music.  Anyway, hardtack memories are good memories.

Honestly... I cant really think of anything. I've always had good taste in stuff, so I really don't dislike anything...

Yeah it came in huge rounds like a small pizza.  I found some like that a few years ago.  It may have been in Petersburg, Alaska, which is a Norwegian community.

Pork chops are another thing on the list. I used to love them on the grill. They sort of make me gag now.

I think it has something to do with hormones, my tastes in food have changed drastically over the last 5 or so years.

Queen.  Loved 'em in the late 70s.  At best indifferent to them now.  Can't think of the last time I listened to 'A Night at the Opera' -- but it was some time around when I was in college, so early 80s -- and I'm not even sure I still have my old copy anymore.
