Ever met a veg*an who doesn't like vegetables?

I can't be doing with fussy eaters.

Although saying that I have lots of things I have to avoid eating, but I do so because they make me unwell, not because I don't like them.

But why should someone be forced to eat something they don't like just because you "can't be doing" with them? It's ok to not eat something because it makes you unwell, but to not eat the same thing because you don't care for its taste or texture is somehow wrong?

It's beyond me why anyone really gives a shit what other people eat tbh.

Fussy eaters.

There's very little I won't eat. Don't eat a lot of veg though cos of buying it in small enough portions to feed one person and a lot of softer veg isn't suitable for home freezing. So if I can't eat something in one or two sittings I won't buy it as I don't like throwing food away.

don't like carrots. I don't like the taste. Actually, I do like them roasted to within an inch of their life, but boiled? Yuk.

Boil them in sugared water not salted. They taste totally different.

I knew a guy who would only eat things that weren't mixed together. For example, he'd eat a plate of plain pasta or a tomato but couldn't stomach pasta with tomatos.

Weird.

Whoa, you could have, with a few simple keystrokes, entirely changed my life!

My mother is sending me a food parcel from her veg plot and carrots are included. I was thinking I'm going to be roasting a helluva lot of veg, but now maybe I can boil them

What about raw carrots? They're much better than any kind of cooked ones. Except possibly carrot cake.

raw carrots are crap IMO, except grated on a salad. roasted is best!
