funny how memories like that can affect your likes and 
dislikes.

my husband came to me with a few food icks.

seems every dinner of his life for quite a few years as a 
young teenager was steak and coleslaw (store bought).  his 
step father loved it.  he grew to hate cole slaw.  would 
even shiver if i was eating it.

his mom ate sauerkraut cold from the can and appaently 
made a meatloaf you could use for fishing sinkers.

fortunately, my home made cole slaw has won him over (even 
sided with steak which i really try not to do), and my 
sauerkraut casserole (pork, white wine, fennel, onions, 
apples and a touch of sugar) has him eating almost as much 
of it as me on major holidays.  i am still working on the 
meatloaf... ;)

odd, tho, that no matter how many toes were bitten by blue 
crabs while he was playing in the chesapeake bay or severn 
river, he never nurtured a dislike for them.
