Do you have a food that you, without a doubt, think you absolutely hate, but you haven’t even tried? For most people, at least one specific food item comes to mind. Some people can’t stand liver and onions, but most people 35 and under haven’t tried them in their lives. Others say the same thing about sushi. They think they don’t like it, but haven’t even ever tried a California roll. I was that way with brussels sprouts for a LONG time. I swore up and down I HATED them with a passion, yet I had never made them before nor had I ever ordered them off a menu. Roasted brussels sprouts FTW! Now, wherever I go, if I see them on the menu, I have to order them. Whether it’s Villain and Saint inside Ocean Casino in Atlantic City or Freddy J’s Bar and Kitchen in Mays Landing, if they’re serving up the crispy brussies, they’ll show up on my check.
