Dried my chocolate mint out of the garden. I like it way better dry.

Instead of tasting like camphor or vicks vapor rub, dried, it did taste like chocolate. I dried some and I'm going to give it to my T'ai Chi instructor the next time I go. I like it enough, I may give it for gifts. I really didn't like it fresh. Which is weird for me. I like peppermint better fresh and all the other mints. But this one I liked better dried. So have you ever grown anything in your garden that you didn't care for the taste of? Have you ever not liked the taste of something one way and then loved it or at least liked it when it was prepared another way? I was like this with eggplant, too, until I had it with tahini and lemon in a Middle Eastern dish in a restaurant.
