When I was still a kid I really hate to eat vegetables. I only eat potatoes. I started to eat green leafy vegetables when I was in sixth grade. I decided to start eating green vegetables because I got pressured by my mother's friends every time they react negatively when they knew that I am not so much into vegetables. Now that I am in college, I love to eat vegetables. There are only a few vegetables which I don't really like to eat. Sadly, I have friends of mine who until now, are not really eating any green leafy vegetables. I feel sorry for them because they are missing the nutrients of vegetables to keep our body healthy.

I have a friend to that is into only eating stuff that is green.She does not beleave that eating meat is perfectally natural and that it is a neccassary part of a human diet.I feel that people that only eat vegtables are just as bad as those that only eat meat.People need a mix of both to ensure that they have a healthy diet and get all the essential nutrients that they need for their body's to function propery.

Actually, it's normal for the kids to hate eating vegetables because of the taste, and also the way of cooking it. They are looking for a more tasty foods like junk foods which is very hard to be avoided by them. When I'm also a kid, I hate to eat the bitter gourd or ampalaya in our country. Well, obviously because it's bitter.. But as I grew up, I find a better way to cook this bitter veggie to become tasty, so right now it became my favorite vegetable.

Hi. iamdee. Yes. I love to eat many types of vegetables. I love to eat, any kind, except for red beets. These are so nasty! When I was younger, I could not stand eating any vegetables. But once I started to eat them as I have gotten much older, that is when I started to love them so much better then.
I love eating vegetables. It is a tasty food to eat that is very nutritious.

Most of us really hates eating vegetables especially people at young age. But my mom taught me how to eat vegetables when I was 6 years old as they always says that vegetables is very good to our health. And learned to love the taste of vegetables as I grow older.

yup vegetables are good for the body, and eating these will help detoxify the body and will even give you a good bowel movement.

The vegetables play a main role in our diet. It is so important that we will have vegetables for our meals. Sometimes when the weather is not good and therefore the vegetables will be expensive, but we still have to buy them. We get used to have vegetables.
I love China

When I was a kid I really hate vegetables especially the be bitter gourd. I remember crying during lunch time while trying to swallow that bitter tasting vegetable. It was good for my blood so my Aunt insisted of feeding me with those.
Now that I am older and knows the importance of vegetable to our health, there's no day that passed that we don't have vegetables in our every meal. I have turned myself into a veggie lover. I can not live without vegetables. No matter what time of the day and what the current weather forecast is, I'll still go out just to look for a vegetable when I see that we have none for our meal.:)

Vegetable has always been my favourite since young. I did not like it when I was a child because it's awful tasting and difficult to chew on. After I started eating burgers where there's lettuce in them, I began to like vegetable due to its crunchiness. Soon after, I'm eating salads, salads with lots of fruits and mayonise mixed in them. Together with my mom's constant recommendation of benefits for eating vegetable, I develop a habit of having them for every meal. Now I'm stuck with it and I don't regret. I have seen the results, it's great.

I eat vegetables but it depends on which type of food does it mix with. When eating burgers with coleslaw, I actually remove all kinds of vegetables there. It feels like I'm going to throw up if I'll eat those vegetables. But in main dishes/viand, I love vegetables. :)

Green leafy vegetables are rich in minerals and we need them for a healthy body. Glad you are enjoying them. Eat also a lot of fruits as they are rich in vitamins. Take acre of your health when you are young you will reap dividends later.

yes always i like to eat green vegetables .As science say it is good to eat every vegetables if you wanted to get every vitamins . Apart from these green vegetables keep people healthy and strong but even there are some vitamins that we can not obtain from vegetables and for that we have to take meat,egg like non-vegetarian foods. vegetables keep people live long . thats why most educated peoples love vegetables and become vegetarian ....

I love to eat vegetables. It is better to eat more vegetables than eating more rice item. In our house, we make varieties of cooking with vegetables and we kept a rule that per day we have to eat at least five vegetables.

I love to eat vegetables and try to eat them at least once a day.I like to eat potato's and squash , carrets and pees mostly.I will eat almost anykind of vegetable that i have in front of me and am not picky then it comes to something that is healthy for me.So many people today eat unhealthy and go to fast food restaurants , some evey day.This is a bad pattern and will lead to many health problems done the road.A large percent of young people today are obease and this is shocking as just a few decades ago this number was much much lower than it is now.

i am picky when it comes to vegetables, my very favorite vegetable is cauliflower and monggo beans i dunno what american calls it. I don't like leafy vegetables that much. I know that it is very important to eat leafy since they are rich in fiber.
