We could probably trade food. "Oh, yeah, I love those, gimme your onions." "You don't like cheese, well, give me your cheese."

Talk about the most assinine thing to give elementary school aged children--you never could puncture it--EVER. And when you did? The entire contents of the bag would fly out of the straw and onto your clothes.

My mom instated a no sugar policy the first few years of my life. I used to go to my aunts house and she'd feed me cookies

I don't believe i've ever had Tang either. Speaking of drinks mixed with alcohol, i've never had Red Bull either.

I remember taking Greyhound from Chicago to Minneapolis one Thanksgiving & being horrified that at stops mothers were putting jolt in baby bottles for young children & then scolding them for not being quiet on the bus.

Just had my first taste of Red Bull last night - of course it was mixed with Southern Comfort so I can't really tell ya what it tastes like

Anyway foods I used to like:

Potted Meat

Ewww. Just eww.
Pineapple (the thought makes me gag)
Tang
Spoonfuls of sugar - I'd just eat spoonfuls of sugar

skittles

I still love those.

I rarely buy them though.

Things I used to like as a kid:

Watermelon
Tootsie Rolls
Spaghetti O's
McDonald's -My mom would never let us go there, so when I went with my friends I thought it was so cool.

Well, I am still a teenager but I can't eat spiced Pecans anymore. You know the kind you can get at the fair or flea market that are hot and sugar coated? I used to love them but I ate a whole box while I had the worst cold of my life one week so now whenever I see them I think of that horrible cold I had!

My little brother was a horribly picky eater when he was little (less so now). He wouldn't eat any fruit or vegetables. He was notoriously constipated as a child, and our mom tried to get him to drink orange flavored Metamucil, to no avail.

You really do need to eat fruit and vegetables...for roughage, and all that.

When I was little, I used to love Vienna sausage. Now, it makes me puke.

I'm a big fan of fruit.

I had troubles as a child too.

Sorry, all, TMI, I know. Metamucil...BLERGH!! Gimme Ex-Lax...it's chocolate!

I eat Total cereal now for some fiber, but yeah, still no veggies or fruits.

My dad loves those lil Vienna sausages...yuck.

David · #28 07-03-2005, 06:51 PM

Breakfast cereals like Count Chocula, Frankenberry, Cap'n Crunch, etc.

Bologna (I don't dislike it now, I just avoid it)

Everything else I liked then I still like, only I like more now.

No, I've never tried those. Thanks for the recommendation! Now I'll have to go look for them in the store.

This leads me to a question related to the last few posts...is it possible to have too much fruit in a day? I didn't think it was, but I remember one day I had a banana in the morning, an apple along with my lunch, and then for supper I got one of those McDonald's fruit and walnut salads with some fries. I loved the thing but I go SO sick after supper. (I won't elaborate on that).

Well, my mom said, "Maybe you had too much fruit today." I was like "Huh? Too much fruit? Is that possible?" I felt HORRIBLE that day, and we never figured out why. I have not had a fruit and walnut salad since. That sucks because it was really good. Does any of this make sense to any of y'all?
