Tomatoes
| Also when there are chunks of cooked tomato in soup I'm fine with those. Is there just something in raw tomatoes that break down when cooked and that's the thing I don't like?
| If it's weird we're both wierd g/u/rl I also feel like that
| It's pretty common tbh. Even if you like the taste of tomato, the texture of the tomato as you sink your teeth into it can make certain people puke. That's why most people prefer tomato sauce than tomato itself. I don't know if it applies to everyone but pretty much everyone I know shares the same preference.
| Reeeee, you're saying it wrong. It's not tomatoes, it's tomatoes.
| Also, just cut them in quarters (halves if small) and put some mayo or similar sauce for a bite-sized snack, definitely better than just trying to bite into a whole raw tomato.
| Really? Huh, I usually see people bite into raw tomatoes as if it's incredibly delicious so I assumed that was the norm.
| I fucken love tomatos. They're the best fruit I've ever eaten. In fact, I love tomatos so much that I had a sweatshirt with a tomato on it made and I wear it every day.
There is a large range of tomato flavors, though. I can see why one might not like some of them, especially the less sweet guys.
| When I was a kid I used to eat a tomato raw everyday mainly because I'm hungry and I can't cook. Raw tomatoes have that raw vegetable-y taste that's quite hard to stomach soemtimes. Though, I think that's because I've been having lots of sub-par ones. How about cherry tomatoes? They're much sweeter in that regard.
| Growing up I couldn't stand string or green beans because I had a bad experience choking on ones that were canned. After awhile I got used to it.
Had a similar situation with stewed tomato skin, which is strange seeing as I fucking love tomatoes every other way.
Food dislikes are largely based on your first impression with them when you're a kid, and it tends to stick with you.

| For some reason I just do not like eating tomatoes. Is that weird? I like salsa, I like tomato soup, I haven't came across anything with tomato that I don't like. But when I bite into a raw tomato I just do not like the taste. I've tried a few different home grown ones, but I dunno. I just do not like it.
