How are you with the initial taste of artichokes? Or spinach, radicchio, very dark (bitter) chocolate, campari?
Hmmm. I don't feel the same way about the entire list.

I love spinach and dark chocolate.

I don't care at all for raw radicchio or campari. I think they're much more bitter than the other 2.

I know the plums are not bitter. I guess I was just drawing a parallel with other "extreme" flavors.
