    I used to be a picky eater.

    The older I get the more I can’t stand picky eaters.

    I was wrong when I was a picky eater.

    It’s so annoying. People base whole chunks of their personality on not liking tomatoes or cilantro or whatever. Grow up. Pathetic.

      Cilantro tastes like bug spray to me and no amount of eating it anyway has helped and any significant amount ruins whatever I’m eating. That said, the only time I bring it up is in conversations like these.

      I used to be picky too, I learned it from my mother. At some point I realized that if a restaurant is serving it, that means people are buying it, and its worth trying. It turns out that most food is delicious, even if I think its a little weird at first.

        Exactly! If millions of people are eating something, then it probably tastes good! You just haven’t really tried it yet.

        You’re not a special unique flower because you don’t like something. You not liking avocados doesn’t make you more interesting, it makes you boring.
