White turnips and chokos. If I and my siblings didn't eat them at dinner time, we faced them at breakfast. These items should never have entered the human being food chain - they're both only fit to be pig fodder, for sure.

Swede followed by leeks... We had to sit at the table until our plates were empty - I used to try and slip food into a hanky and then flush down the toilet! I also hated rice pudding and tripe (not served on the same plate!).

Peas but lukily my cat (under the table) loved them~!:-p As a parent I only ask that the kids try the vegetables they dislike from time to time to see if they've changed their minds but realise there are many different things they can eat instead. Oh~! and polonies/savaloys ... YUK!

calabrese (from the brocolli family) freshly cut from the vege garden we inherited when we moved house! My mum used to cook all vegetables to hell!!!! To be honest, I don't think she really cared as my dad hated cooked veg (wonder why!! lol) Her salad's were horrible too - they consisted of a couple of leaves of lettuce, a few slices of cucumber and a tomato and NO dressing whatsoever was ever offered!!! But I LOVE all vegetables, now I know how they should be cooked and salads are so much nicer in my house :)

ME Too... my mother made me eat leeks in white sauce and I would just throw up.... and still cant stand the smell and the sheer site of them makes me ill....lol lol Other wise my mum is a great cook she made wholemeal bread everyday for us when we moved to Aussie I was the only kid at school who had them so I think I was very fortunate to have a mum that cared about wholesome things back then...it wasnt the norn at all.

I think often, with perhaps one or two exceptions, that it is the way they were cooked more than the actual vege. And being cooked at all - my son loved raw things but quite a few he didn't like cooked. So he had raw.........

lol, I'm with the mothers way of cooking leeks in white sauce, but then a friend had them one night when we went for dinner...sauted gently in a pan with bacon, then thickened with just enough milk to make it into a sauce. I buy them now done that way they are lovely.
