The only cheese I ate while growing up was mozzarella, and on pizza only. Now, I like many types of cheese. From sharp cheddar to Swiss to bleu (including gorgonzola and roquefort) to feta. Times have changed for me when it comes to cheese.
Up until my early 20s I think the only "cheese" I ate was the American process slices, except for pizza. Since then though, my horizons have expanded. I will even on occasion eat Limberger on those little slices of pumpernickel with an onion slice. Have you ever tried Stiltson? A British bleu cheese, but with a vaguely yellowish tint. I also love Brie and Camembert.

I won't go anywhere near Limburger. The smell of it kills me. I don't think I've tried Stilton. I've had Brie and Camembert and I liked both of them.
What is the deal with foods that you used to hate and now you like? Suddenly, I like pickled beets and I have no clue why. I use to think they tasted like garbage. Anyone else have a food experience like this?
Asparagus. They looked like they would taste weird, more bitter than anything else. I bought some one day and cooked it, and now I can eat it at least once a week.
-Mushrooms - OMG are these babies good!!!! Growing up I couldn't even LOOK at them. Now I want them in everything!
-Avocado - I think they just scared me. What did I know??
-Cilantro - hated this for YEARS. Now, put this on top of any kind of mexican dish, especially rice and I'm a happy camper!
-Salmon - oh man...I hated this growing up. My parents would make it...and they'd serve it with butter. I just couldn't get past the fishy taste. Now I love it (admittedly I do love it with sauces and still don't prefer just butter) and I love a blackened salmon caesar salad...YUM
- Pho - I would NEVER have touched this growing up, now I love it.
- Indian food - Ditto, it scared the crap out of me. But again, I was totally ignorant. Now I apppreciate the wonderful flavors.
Brussels Sprouts. Always had them cooked until mush as a child and thought they were vile. I was convinced one day in my late twenties to try them cooked properly (sauteed until tender but still green) with Olive Oil and Garlic. Amazing! Might I add having them cooked similarly with Bacon is also something to try for those who have had similar experiences.
Almost all food that I eat now, esp veggies. When I was a kid, I only liked the taste of fried chicken and egg. Hated everything else.
