Wich green stuff you mean? The preparation of the vegetable determines the taste. Try different preparations. Everybody can learn to eat every vegetable. Here in Belgium people often put vegetables in mashed potatoes. You could start adding the vegetables you don't like and increase the amount every time you prepare it. At this way you get used to the taste. My kids and husband don't like vegetables. I often make mixed soup for them and make sure that the primary taste is something they really like. They don't taste the vegetables like sprouts but they eat it!

I'll do it. I'll make a food that which tastes so good as if there is no vegetable there. I sometimes eat vegetables when I'm really really hungry and don't have something to eat. I'm forced to eat. :)

You just have to think of them as something else- some other food that you love, imagine. Or you can cover your nose while you eat them ,by doing that , you won't taste the veggies that much, You can mix it with meat too, to improve the taste.

I am not a vegetarian , but I prefer vegetables to meat preparations. I suppose it just a matter of how often you take the food. When I go to restaurants which serve buffets, my plate would always be ninety percent vegetables, and just ten percent meat, and that also mainly seafood. I like the taste of different kinds of veggies.

hi, my younger sister also had problem about that, she really dont like vegetables or green leafs, but when she was had a vacation with my grandmother in our province, she gradually learned to eat vegetables, because my grandmother had enough money to buy meat, and she could only buy vegetables. it was really effective to live at the province.

Discipline. But isn't it too late for you to start? I mean didn't your parents taught you that when you were young so that even at your age now, you don't need to be forced to eat. Sorry, the word force is kinda cruel, but I don't see anything negative on eating veggies. Probably what you can do is try to eat green salads. In this way you can be on the right track.

There must be a willingness of self- I also do not like to eat vegetables, but now it is ok, I tried the spinach, tight, and water spinach Actually not a problem like it or not. but have to eat. so embed it in your mind. Try it first with a small cut spinach. though not too tasteless

Eating green leafy vegetables is a healthy diet and everyone are encouraged to eat. Best thing that you could do in order to eat those vegetables with delicious taste, try blend it with some other tasty foods such as frying out it's leaves and dipping it to chocolates, or maybe pour some honey on it to make it's take sweet. Also, you could give it a try dipping it to a mayonnaise or some condiments such as vinegar, soy sauce, or ketchup.
