Joking? No. I can't think of many vegetables I don't like today, but the list would have been larger at the age of 10. Part of that is the bland way they were served to me, too many times right from can to pan to plate.

I guess it takes a while do develop a broad taste in foods. I have a sister-in-law who's maybe 6 years younger than I. I can remember clearing the table after dinner (I started dating Mrs BamaVol at 15 or 16, about 37-38 years ago) and finding the vegies hidden under her placemat. Today, she cleans her plate no matter what's on it although I think she manages to keep tomatos off her plate in the first place.
