Subject: Foods you used to like but don't like now?

Written By: kr37 on 07/04/21 at 3:35 pm

I thought it might work better to ask this question in a new topic rather than ask it in the "foods you didn't use to like but like now" topic.

We also had another topic about foods you don't like, and a few people mentioned Peeps. Those are definitely something I used to like but now I think they're too sweet. I also used to like Twizzlers but I don't like the flavor anymore. I can't think of many other foods I don't like any more, usually if I stop liking something it's because I ate too much of them, but I usually want them again after taking a break for a while.

Good topic!

I can't think of many foods I hate now, but a few I like a lot less.  I was planning to assist my friends with their finicky eating preschooler by suggesting something I used to love as a kid, Spaghetti-Os.  I thought, before I suggest it I should make sure I stand by my endorsement, as I haven't had it for many years.  So I decided to try some myself.  I was completely underwhelmed.  :-\\  Needless to say I never did suggest Spaghetti-Os to my friends with the preschooler.

Any salad dressing, ranch is the worst. Mayo and miracle whip. Bbq sauce. Oh I used to eat ketchup on meatloaf, can’t stand it whatsoever now. Plain meatloaf is great though. Same with other things, just plain. I don’t like milk anymore either, not even on cereal. I just eat it plain from the box.

So I’d say I’m pickier than I used to be. And that’s just my preferences. When it comes to food I like but my body can’t handle anymore, there’s a ton.

There is no food I have never liked. I will eat ANYTHING. Even insects!

The only food I never really made a favorite of mine is pickles. But I WILL eat them. Can anyone guess what my favorite food is?

I think you posted it once but I don’t remember. Ice cream perhaps?

With certain dietary reasons, which I am not going into details, for me it is the case of foods I cannot have any more.

TV Dinners, with the very high sodium content I won't eat them anymore.

I used to like chicken livers until I nearly choked to death on one. And I won't eat mac and cheese that often because of my health.

Stay away from them. Read labels of foods when you shop. Any processed foods high in sodium (more than 15-20%) is bad for you. Salt and sugar are the two of the worst things you can eat.

I can relate, especially with candies such as these. I liked them when I was a kid, but later on realised they were too sweet and/or contained other ingredients that may be not-so-healthy.

I feel similarly.

...which is why I have been trying to stay away from high-sodium content as of late.

Definitely plain marshmallows are a candy I used to like a lot, but now I think they're too sweet and not very flavorful.

marshmallows are just puffed up air.

I'll still eat them, on occasion.

that's about right.

I used to love cottage cheese when I was a kid but now I think it's gross for some reason.  ;D

I love cottage cheese but only once in a while.

I rarely even eat it myself. There is a quiche recipe we usually make, which calls for cottage cheese. And when we make it, that’s the only occasion I’ll eat any.

Over time, I have been reluctant to eat pickles for the most part. Unless they're made a certain way. And there is a local sandwich shop (about 10 miles or so from our house, as the crow flies) that makes really good pickles. I'll eat those.

Sourkraut. It’s not bad but the smell is what gets me.

Yeah; smells sometimes turn me off to certain foods, but when I taste them it isn’t so bad.
