Are there some vegetables you like raw, but not cooked or the other way around?

I find some are more flavorful in their natural state.

@snowy22315 my husband likes cooked carrots and when he makes dinner he often makes them so I eat them although I hate them.

I will eat them either way, but prefer raw.

@shaggin Maybe they will grow on you...

Just a plateful of steamed spinach is pretty bad. I find it has to be in something to be good. Raw spinach is good in salads, or wraps.

@DaddyEvil When I was in the hospital as a kid they served some kind of tasteless beef and spinach. The only think I ate was raspberry sherbet. When the nurse saw that was all I ate she brought me another one.

@snowy22315 Mom boiled the spinach and we had to eat some of it with vinegar sprinkled on it. YUCKY! I like to just pick the spinach, make sure it isn't dirty or have a bug on it, and eat it that way.

I have corn on the cob now. It was 25 cents an ear for Memorial Day, and I had it just the week before that too.

@kobesbuddy It probably had to come a long distance.

@snowy22315 I paid $3. for four ears of corn.

I believe I like most veggies raw or slightly sauteed or steamed.

@RubyHawk Overcooked is just wrong! Nasty!

@snowy22315 I like my veggies cooked but not overcooked.

I enjoy them as a snack or with lunch. Tonight they will be part of my supper.

@JimBo452020 I never had them like that, but I would try them that way. A carrot slaw is good, or a carrot with french dressing and raisin salad.

@snowy22315 I grate them. And mix them with Mayo. Yum Especially with a crusty bread roll and butter

@snowy22315 Very interesting to hear that you hated tomatoes when you were a kid Perhaps you started to like tomatoes because of pizza?

@youless Honestly, I would eat them in a spaghetti sauce, but that was about it. I remember those as a teenager, having a BLT...(bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich) and really loving it. That might have been my first encounter with raw tomatoes. Actually though, I may have had a sub sandwich with tomatoes I liked before that.

I love tomatoes and eat them almost everyday. When I was a kid, I hated them though...go figure

Veggies are good, I don't love them though compared to other foods. I am not one to eat a plate of vegetables for a meal unless it is a salad, or I am at a restaurant hot bar or something.

@snowy22315 I feel the same way.

Yeah, mushy carrots are no fun.

@snowy22315 Mushy carrots are tasteless and not at all pleasant.

It is...I enjoy most veggies raw...at least to a certain extent.

@TheHorse I don't know either.

@snowy22315 I can't remember what the difference is between a fruit and a vegetable.

Technically it is along with avocado. Did you know tomatoes were originally called love apples? Funny name, and seems to have little in common with an apple other than the color.

@snowy22315 I don't think knew that? What makes them more loving?

Beets are something I might eat raw or pickled but not cooked unless it is borscht. Dislike cooked beets.

@snowy22315 Absolutely, same here.

I was the same about tomatoes. I didn't start liking them until I was almost an adult. Now, I eat them often.

@snowy22315 when i start liking them, i ate too much almost everyday. that's quite an expense so i eat them occasionally. i wish i have my own tomatoes trees

Vegetable are quite healthy.

@snowy22315 absolutely agree.

Some glazed carrots are pretty good. I made kind of a carrot casserole dish one time, I liked alot. They tasted like sweet potatoes.

@snowy22315 Oh, that does sound good.

Al dented I guess

@snowy22315 Yup, that way.

Most are better with something added.

@snowy22315 Yes, this is true.

Celery, carrots, tomatoes??...lettuce, onions?

Celery & tomatoes maybe. I rarely buy lettuce but that would be raw. Cheeeze, ya got me.

They are good with dip I also like them plain Sorry about your cheing

It is OK raw, I just like it better cooked.

@snowy22315 yes your are right my friend
