Saturday Nostalgia: Foods you turned you nose up at as a kid

Ahhhh…the tastes of childhood.  Even a smell can transport you back to being a kid and wondering what was for dinner.

Food memories of when you were a kid can often take you back to the local fair with your parents – fairy floss, lollies – or even a special birthday dinner, but what about those foods you used to hate?

They might be peas, which you’d flick at your brother, or perhaps it was something less obvious, but whatever it was, you hated it!

For Saturday Nostalgia we thought we’d have some fun and take a look back at the foods you would turn your nose up at. We asked a group of people to give us some of the dishes that they dreaded to see come to the kitchen table.

Tell us, would you eat them now?
