Taste Buds Changing

Until this month I have always hated olives. I mean HATED. Now, suddenly I really like them. This was one food that I always refused to eat. I wouldn't even eat a piece of pizza if I took the olives off. I could still taste them. Do you find that your taste buds change with time?

Yes they do for sure. I have learned to like foods I didn't before. And, I have also changed my taste buds the other way. Don't always like what I used to like.

I don't like olives too. But When I eat a pizza, I always eat and olive to, since I know that olive are so healthy...

Are you pregnant? LOL My taste buds changed like that when I got pregnant. I used to eat cottage cheese and I loved it but when I got pregnant I would get sick if I even got close enough to smell it. And I still can't eat it. But that's the only time my taste buds changed like that.

Yes, there are alot of foods I love now, olives being one as well... I hardly ate veggies now I love them... I believe our taste buds changed or our way of thinking about a certain food has changed...lol

When i was a kid I used to think that almost all vegetables were gross, and my family ate the same lunch even back then. I thought that I would never like certain things like brussel sprouts and rutabega. But now I love them!! I would really feel like I was missing something in my diet if I did not get these veggies nearly every day. ^_^ There are also foods that I've loved and gotten really sick of to the point of not really ever wanting them again, but I can't think of a clear example of that right now.

I've noticed that my tastebuds have changed a little. When I was younger I used to eat Tuna Fish and other seafood. Now the thought of eating a tunafish sandwich is just ugh.
