At the age of 10 ALL the "A" vegetables were on my hate list - asparagus (to my parents' delight), artichokes, avocados. Now they top my favorites list. Oven-roasted asparagus, asparagus veloute, asparagus risotto, steamed dipped in vinaigrette...plus, it's one of the only warm foods I can think of where it's considered polite to eat it with your fingers in formal service.
